The dress, inspired by the one and only Linsay Lohan

Miss Lohan is infamous for her behavior, addiction to drugs, criminal background and all-around bad decisions, but she is also known as a heartwarming and impressionable childhood actress. Much like many Americans, and Latinas, Lohan is not alone. There are many girls in this country who battle addiction, self-esteem problems,…See More

Learning about Body Image

I was super excited to start the lesson, surely these girls had confidence.When I…See More

Thispiration: Be careful what you stumble, tumbl upon or pin.

We live in a lost world where cultures and ethnicity come together in a meshed conglomerate  as each and every individualistic character or detail is lost in the melting pot of society, where people are striving to be someone, anyone trying to survive; we call it the American Dream.
