Little White Dress Challenge, Day Six: Go Crazy!
Sometimes you just need to go crazy! It would suck to be completely normal, we all have to have her eccentric sides and embrace them. Learn to love being silly and laughing just because. Life isn’t fun if it’s taken too seriously. Why I think fashion and writing go hand…

Ethical Obsession: Wooden Ties for Guys and Gals
