Edgy Fem.

Thursday, May 23, 2013


I bought this vintage dress years ago and this is only the second time I have worn it.
I was drawn to the bight colors and pattern but it needed some alterations.
I had the sleeves cut off to give it a modern feel and I had to add some black leather to give it some edge. 
Also, remember my little secret in this post?
Well I did the same thing here.
Adding a poofy skirt as an under-layer gives your skirt/dress some fullness which is always fun!

My Swimsuit

Tuesday, May 21, 2013


I finally found a bathing suit I love. 
Leave it to Alexander Wang to give me something clean and modern.
After my kids, how I look up top is actually my main issue.
I think this top will do the trick.
I love it, now....which color?????
I am leaning more toward the truffle...what do you think?

Masculine meets Feminine

Monday, May 20, 2013


Masculine and feminine...a perfect marriage.
I have never been a fan of overly girly, but yet, too masculine doesn't suit my taste either.
Allow me to explain. 
I have always been a "boys" girl.
I always found boys more fun, but also loved to seduce.
Always loved sports, but always loved clothes.
Love me some great noir, but also a great IPA.
Love Biggie, Eminem but also Barry Manilow..seriously it's true!
I am not saying these are all "boy" things or all "girl" things but I think you get my point. 
My sister thinks I have high levels of testosterone...very physical, very competitive,
 high sex drive...what?...just trying to get the point across.
My masculine side has almost always been as dominant as my feminine, which is no surprise why my style usually reflects that. I can definitely go all out girly at times, but what always ends up feeling most like "me" is this combination of masculine and feminine together, and now, you can understand why.

How about you...can you see yourself in your style?

Unitard

Friday, May 17, 2013


I have had this unitard for aaaaages.
I was so surprised to see that there were so many currently for sale. 
It has been such a useful piece in my wardrobe, 
I can wear it as an under-layer for sheer dresses like I did here, break it up with a skirt, or throw on some legwarmers and  go all out flash-dance.
Whatever the craving, the unitard is definitely up for the challenge!

Spring in my step

Wednesday, May 15, 2013


I definitely have a spring in my step the last few days, and it's not just the weather.
My mother-in-law just had a very "high-risk" surgery on Monday and she made it through beautifully!
This 76 year old, 85 lb little lady is one tough cookie.
My health also seems to be returning to normal..finally!
The saying is so true,
"If you don't have your health, you don't have anything", and I am so grateful for everyday that me and my loved ones are well! 
Wishing you all Good Health and Happiness!
