How does your body type affect where you shop?

Hey Strangekittens.  Yesterday I saw a wonderful post about how (the author’s) body type affects where she shops. Obviously to some extent this applies to everyone, but how? Let’s look at this from my personal experience. I hate shopping for clothing. I really, really do. It’s not even a size thing any more, now that I’ve gone down a few sizes. To start off with, i’m dramatically taller than average, which I’ve mentioned before. 5’11 to be exact, and … Continue reading

Monday Meow: Earth Day Link Roundup

Hey Strangekittens! Did you have a good Earth Day weekend? Mine was pretty chill. I played WAY too much TERA Online though!

Yesterday was Earth Day, so I thought i’d pick up some earthy-links to share this week.

Nail Art With Real Leaves (And other ideas) This is a pretty cool idea. You’d have to find something that wouldn’t wilt when you stuck it on/used a topcoat, though. Or maybe that would look cool? Who knows, I might try it.

10 Eco-friendly Fashion Brands  ’Nuff said. Gotta have more natural brands around.

Nick Knight Kitten and Couture Photoshoot  Sorry dude, I’m so stealing this idea.

10 Uses of Google Earth That Have Made Positive Impacts on the World These are all such amazing ideas.

Was it something you … Continue reading

Hey Strangekittens. I found a great article explaining why ‘daytime’ and ‘night-time’  looks are just BS, and I agree. Wear what makes you happy. I mean personally, my colouring (very dark hair, hazel eyes and pale as rice skin) means I ALWAYS looks sorta goth/grunge.  So, i’ve gotten used to wearing what I feel like. If i feel like wearing preppy makeup, i’ll wear preppy makeup. If it feel like rocking the black greasepaint for a … Continue reading
