Bunny love: clothes.

on Thursday, April 5, 2012

Easter is around the corner- my second favorite holiday (right after Halloween), obviously because of its direct relationship with the amount of bunny paraphernalia available at this time of year. Oh, and chocolate. And pastels! Ok I guess there are a few reasons...but MOSTLY BUNNIES.



1/ A Little Bit Bunny Cardigan in Hare-Larious
2/ White Bunny Print Shirtdress
3/ Honey Bunny Sweatshirt
4/ Rabbit Tank Top
5/ Sugarhill Boutique Playsuit in Bunny




Freaking out over: The Pierrepont Hicks Backseat Blanket

on Tuesday, March 27, 2012

I have never felt so strongly about something as banal as a blanket in my life. It is somehow complete perfection- the gradient orange stripes on a dreamy blue backdrop- I LOVE YOU, PERSON WHO MADE THAT DECISION. Best part? 100% Minnesota made! $150.

You know what, guys? Sometimes, when things are a little crazy, you just have to let loose and OWN THE CRAZY, like this amazing human being.

We are in the midst of World Water Week and I wanted to take this opportunity to lay some knowledge out there- 4,000 children die every day from not having access to clean water. Worldwide, 900 million people lack access to clean water. This means poor nutrition, high risk of illness and even children risking their lives in wartorn countries to travel long distances to simply get what we don't think twice about.  World Water Day was yesterday, March 22, but don't worry- there is still time to make a difference. You can join in UNICEF's Tap Project, wherein participating restaurants simply ask for a $1 donation for the tap water you would normally get for free. No time to delay- the Tap Project ends on the 25th. Good thing it's the weekend you know you are heading out on the town tonight ;) 
Feeling lazy? Just text "TAP" to UNICEF (864233) to make a $10.00 donation. Still not convinced? Click here for some nice lookin infographics on the true reach of this issue.
Live in my neighborhood? Look below the photo for a list of the participating Tap Project restaurants within a 50 mile radius of Minneapolis.

Local spotlight: Rebecca "Trixie" Esser

on Thursday, March 22, 2012

Full Disclosure: Trixie is one of my dearest friends but I think I can still be unbiased when I say that she is truly one of Minneapolis' most talented rising stars. She has done hair for tons of events from fashion shows to the Soap Factory Haunted Basement and is the only person I'll let touch this mop on top of my head. Not only is she known for her hair talents but her beautiful ink and was just featured in this month's issue of Tattoo Magazine! Looking for a fresh look? Set up an appointment with her at the brand new Grand Ave location of Moxie. Feeling gutsy? Ask her to make you look like some kind of vixenous Disney character like she did for me a year ago:
