Pops of Black

During the cooler months, I like to alleviate the more muted tones that are prevalent during fall and winter with pops of color. And then, the other day, I got to thinking about black. It's not...

Hats, Flowers & Rabbit Deer Creatures

I don't like wearing hats. I never know how to wear them or what to do with my hair. And because my head is kind of small for a giant, they often don't fit me right and tend to blow off. Even when...
