Lay it on me

In a society that touts the desires of the individual over the common good, Isabella Embler knows only a life of sacrifice and service---she is The Gatekeeper, the guardian of our world that fights the evil forces that threaten to spill over form their twisted, dark dimension into our world. Trained since birth in the arts of white magic and combat, she is a member of the Order of the Paladins, a secret sect of women charged with protecting the unsuspecting population from wicked monstrosities, known and unknown. Incredibly powerful and shrouded in mystery, Isabella is the world's best kept secret of a super hero.

I'm really surprised I haven't seen more Macklemore sets. Is everybody burnt out on this guy already? I hope not. Say what you want about "Thrift Shop" but I think it's the most original rap song to get on popular radio in years! I look forward to seeing what he comes up with in the future. Support your local second-hand!

...And if you look at my previous sets, you know how much I love those:)

By now you have probably heard that Polyvore plans to shut down the ask/advice section on its website. There will be no new questions accepted after Jan. 17. Some people just come on to Polyvore to create and look at sets, and that's cool, but for those of us who really enjoy the ask/advice section, this will be a major loss of a forum that allows us to exchange ideas. To learn more, go to their blog entry (address below) and make your voice heard.

After all, it's only natural...have you heard Skylar Grey's single featuring Eminem? It's naughty, playful, and a touch crude. I love it! Something about the sweet sophistication of this outfit, coupled with the torn jeans and flirty come-on of a song just make my day:)

I thought the jacket would lend an edge to an otherwise sweet, flirty outfit. If I could dress like this every day, oh, the possibilities...:)

Today marks the 200th Anniversary of the Brothers Grimm collection of folk tales they collected and revised throughout a good portion of their lives. As shown by my set, one of my favorites is Little Red Riding Hood. What's yours?

This set was inspired by the 2010 romantic dramedy "Beginners" with Ewan McGregor, Christopher Plummer and Mélanie Laurent. Each outfit is modeled after the clothes the main characters are wearing on the poster. It really is a sweet, touching story without being overly mushy or sentimental. If you haven't tried it yet, I highly recommend it!

I love the saying, "The only "normal" people are the ones you haven't met yet." Truer words were never spoken!
