Sitting on the floor at one of my favorite thrift stores, A Day N June, owned by my good friend, Lindsey Brown. Her showroom in downtown Baltimore is one of the dopest spots ever, located in an amazing old warehouse that is also home to a bunch of artist studios. The grey RESIST muscle tee I'm wearing throughout this post is by Thread Tank, which is a minority-owned business based in LA. Their tees are super soft and it's a brand that I stand behind and love!
Secondhand clothing is the next big disruptor. If you're one of the people saying that, here's some advice: stop. You're late to the game. It's not the "next big disruptor," it's ALREADY the big disruptor and remains the big disruptor in fashion retail.

That Green Retro Top is by ModCloth and I love how it's banded at the neck, sleeves and hem. It emphasizes your curves at the top and then whittles down around your waist, giving you the illusion of an hourglass figure. You can wear it with short shorts, pleated miniskirts, knee-length pencil skirts, and high-waisted cigarette pants for a retro look. I decided to pair it with some high-waisted leggings in a leopard print because I'm going through an obsession with 80s fashion right now.

Sometimes making pretty things look prettier full-time can actually get quite exhausting, and I was recently in desperate need of a staycation. While it may not quite happen as often as I would like/need, I recently took a weekend off for a much-needed re-charge, and camped out at the Hotel Monaco in downtown Baltimore.

Back in the day, if you did online dating, you were considered a creepy, ugly loser who lived in your mom's basement. Now it's the only way that people date. Even non-dating apps are being used to meet new people and hook up. UberPOOL has become one of those services

Asian brands need to do better: Stop using so many white models. Western brands need to do better too. Start using more Asian models and other people of color. We're all getting sick and tired of seeing the Jenners, the Hadids, Hailey Baldwin, and Lily Rose Depp anyway.

A few nights ago as I was getting ready to go out, I tried on an outfit (the same outfit I'm wearing in this post), snapped a photo of it and sent it to my friend to see what she thought. "You can't wear that!" she texted me, "You're a mom now!" Annoyed, I decided to ignore her text and wore it anyway.
