I have this dream. It’s a dream where everybody can actually be the person that they are and connect with other people who’re being who they are and we can all just be ourselves! Together. And have fun doing it. And maybe just change the world a little bit at the same time. The wonderful [...]

Fit Failure: Cups That Don’t Cup

Empire Line

I really like this bustier I spotted on Pinterest. Its a nice colour and I dig the pattern. Love the little touches of lace around the breasts.

I’m happy and successful and have the most amazing experiences with wonderful people. It’s a lovely vision, but doesn’t actually have much basis in fact. In reality, I’ve just quit my full-time job [...]
