A Clockwork Orange Chic

This week I have been inspired by a movie I do not particularly enjoy. This movie has always thoroughly creeped me out. It’s not that it is a bad movie but it’s a good movie based on truly bad people. A Clockwork Orange. Not only is this costume concept played

The Not So Literal Matrix

It’s cold this winter in Tijuana. Colder than I’ve ever experienced since leaving Canada 3 years ago! Okay, not as cold as Canada but unseasonably cold for West Coast Baja California weather. Which is why I’m taking the opportunity this week to channel my inner Matrix but not quite so

My Mexican Poncho Style

I will preface this with saying the local fashion scene here in Tijuana leaves much to be desired. Mostly because most people here don’t have good taste or personal style which works out as a win for me personally. Why? Well, if people where real purveyors of style all these

Lost Angeles Flashback Friday Files

This has been quite an eventful week. I traveled back to LA for the first time since I moved to Tijuana over a year ago. LA used to be everything to me. It was my main source of inspiration for fashion, music and art. Since moving away it no longer

To Maine With Love From Tijuana

I often like style to be inspired by places and sub cultures within those places. Some places I have never even been too (yet) but always wanted to visit. Today’s look is inspired by all things Maine. Semi Nautical meets cool ocean air. If I was in Maine in winter

Styling a 1970s Pornstar Inspired Style

Finally! I got to pull out my 70s porn star vest. I’ve been looking forward to styling this piece since I found it vintage shopping at the end of last Summer. My look this week is heavily inspired by the character Candy in the series The Deuce. She is played

Romy, Michele & Me

This week I pulled some inspiration from two of my favorite female characters in a comedy. Romy & Michele’s High School Reunion. This movie was the epitome of short skirts, crop tops, long legs, faux fur & platform heels. It rivals Clueless for those obsessed with 90’s fashion. This look

90’s Pleather & Sweater Weather

Thicker fabrics are such a staple when the temperature drops below 20 in the desert that is Baja California. Another thing that has become more frequent is pretty insane climate changes at a rapid pace. This week for example we had wicked winds up to 20mph in my area and

Leopard, Leather & Easy Rider…

This week I didn’t actually pull direct inspiration for my look from any one place in particular. More of an anti inspirational look if you will. I just really wanted to blend Leopard print and Leather together and make that look seamless. In this case faux leather that looks really

Channeling My Digital Librarian..

The Library is open! I finally get to say that in the correct context after years of binge watching RuPaul’s Drag Race. This week I pulled inspiration from one of the simplest places. Libraries. I used to spend a lot of time in them in the early 2000’s before I
