The Bigger the Hoops, the Bigger The...
Those that know me well understand that hoop earrings are a big part of my aesthetic. For example: I love rocking big gold hoops for a night out dancing.

Bras
YES, you read it right. I am about to splurge all my words on ‘Bras’ in this one. WHY?... Really? Because it’s just a few months away from the world entering 2020, and India, ranks #2 in terms of world’s population with 48.2% females, yet is somehow not educated enough to take this issue up. We insist on shying away or simply not bothering to nudge this topic at all. And I hope my readers feel nothing but down right pride after... necessarily my folks.

Advantages of Wearing a Sports Bra Instead of a Traditional Bra
Who said sports bras are for female athletes or those who engage in physical activities? In fact, a sports bra is much more than a workout accessory.

Summer=Seasonal Insecurities
We are having a heat wave in Seattle. It is 85 degrees this weekend, and steamy. Hot weather means we (women) start donning our splashy summer outfits. I have drawers full of hot pants, cutoffs, slinky dresses, and jumpers that require me to get half naked to go pee.

Struggles of a Chronic Dieter: Shopping Edition
I hate shopping for clothes. I do not know any woman who does. We may put on a brave face for our friends—lie through our teeth when we say how much we love shopping—but as soon as we are by ourselves in that dressing room, the reality hits. We usually have a pile of clothes that are just the same pieces in three different sizes. Because even if you know what size you are, you never really do. It changes from store to store and even in the same store, you could be two different sizes depending on what cut of pants and shirt you have picked up.

The end of the year is approaching and trends in high-end jewelry are renewing. Although diamonds will remain eternal, and gold, the preferred material, the new proposals are aimed at playing with shapes and textures.

Feminism and Fashion
As a teenage girl, I strive for the greatest outfit with my hair on point and my makeup ready for a runway, but I can’t always do that. Society tells girls that we must dress nicely and it’s become the trend to always have your outfit perfect and ready for a photoshoot for your Instagram page. Not only is this stressful for teenage girls but it also plays a big part for women in politics.

Vogue & All Our Faces
Prior to yesterday, I had never bought VOGUE. Ever. I had been given and gifted it but I'd never actually bought a copy for myself to keep or to gift. This seems now like a strange thing to type out loud because for as long as I can remember, I have always enjoyed looking at beautifully photographed and painted editorials of women.
