I don’t know about you guys, but I still find gifts special even when I pick them out myself. On my birthday, I asked Kristin to take me shopping and let me pick out something at J. Crew. I had a few things in mind, tried them all on and did a mini fashion show, then Kristin helped me pick out what I should get! She picked this skirt, and I must say she has excellent taste. I mean, I do look pretty adorable in it. 😉

Even though this skirt was far from a surprise, I will always remember it was a gift from my favorite human (if only because I just wrote a blog post about it). Just like the human, the skirt is fun, playful, colorful, and perfect for every season! And yes, I will take that as a personal challenge to remix this skirt for fall, winter, and spring. Stay tuned.

Fringe theater festivals are good for many things: an excuse to get out of the house, see interesting dance and theater, feel all the feelings, watch your friends perform drunk Shakespeare…the list goes on.

But an often overlooked bonus: fringe festivals are a good excuse to get new fringed accessories to wear as a subtle nod to the occasion. Not enough people take advantage of this opportunity. (Actually, not enough people take advantage of Indy Fringe either. So if you live around here, go check it out!)
