The Forgotten Genius of Club Libby Lu
It's 2007. Your best friend calls you on the landline to let you know her mom will be picking you up in their mini van and taking you guys to the mall to get makeovers at Club Libby Lu. You make your own sparkly lip gloss and buy some Hannah Montana merch with birthday money from your grandma. Life is good.

How Your Clothes Are Really Made (And What You Can Do About It)
I’ve always had an eye for fashion. Ever since I was young, the “closet world” has been my comfortable place—Choosing the hottest combinations from my mom’s “grown up” drawers, playing dress-up in her new designer boots, window shopping and craving that five-kajillion-dollar jacket for no reason other than it was cool as hell.

Forget #CAMP of the Met Gala...
While we are all tripping over ourselves with a moderately disappointing Met Gala Ball hosted by the esteemed Anna Wintour each year, other gala's of fashion are worth our attention, too. Don't get me wrong, I live for the Met event every year and I am always most fascinated with who is ACTUALLY ON THEME and what amazing looks they come up with. But this isn't the only high fashion event that deserves our attention.

It tends to give us a misunderstanding of what one wears when it comes to their own cultural and traditional recognition.

Mass media promotes cultural appropriation through movies, television shows, commercials, ads, etc...
