Gwen the love interest.


I'm a big fan of the "Spiderman" movies, and loved the most recent reboot, "The Amazing Spider-Man".
I mean who doesn't love a good lookin' man swinging around New York City in spandex?! Totally hot. 




For this shuffle I focused on Gwen Stacy's (Emma Stone) character costume design from the movie.

She wore several skirts, favored neutral colors, and wore simple patterns like small poka-dots and small stripes. 


Of course gotta have the boots!




Layers!

Maybe one day you'll find a love that sends you higher than the empire state building!

Oh Earth, how I love thee.

Happy Earth Day! 





We live in a day and age where most of us don't appreciate nature as we should.

Earth day is a day to reflect upon the current situations of our environment, and what we could do to improve these places we inhabit. We can pick up litter, use less water, recycle, and be careful with our energy consumption. I know I could always improve in those areas. 

I encourage you to make it a point at sometime today, this week, or anytime soon to spend some time outside. Pure sunshine in controlled amounts is actually very healthy for your body! (Vitamin D can do wonders for your health, and it makes you happier in the long run!) Get some rays, and smile!

A picnic is a wonderful way to spend some time with nature and friends. Anyplace will do, open skies, and a patch of grass for a blanket to be spread upon. Here's some picnic tips.   

Let's pledge to enjoy being natives of this beautiful and phenomenal planet. Celebrate its beauty!

Nature! Earth Day!

"If you could change your fate...would ya?"


This shuffle was inspired by Princess Merida from Disney Pixar's Brave. 
She's feisty, fiery, and ready to change her fate. Similar to what I think every woman should at least try once! 

Merida is a princess that dreams to follow her own path, and fights for what she believes in. She is courageous and compassionate. She is in fact "brave". She also can handle a sword and practices archery (Past times I enjoy myself!).





Orange headband to account for her shocks of red hair, A blue dress similar in color to Merida's main gown. (I added a golden pennant, and a ribbon trim to the neck line.) Layered leg warmers, tights, and boots complete the look.

"Its bigger on the inside."


This shuffle was based off of Doctor Who's trusty T.A.R.D.I.S. (Time and Relative Dimension in Space).

Want to travel to any time or location in the universe? The Tardis has you covered. Although the Tardis does have a mind of her own, and has established that she travels using her own free will.  


"Its smaller on the outside."

Souffle Girl.

Today's shuffle is everyone's favorite 'Souffle girl', Clara Oswin Oswald. Clara is the Eleventh Doctor's new companion. She is the woman who lived and died twice, and has sparked a renewed curiosity in the Doctor.  
Inspired by her Victorian Barmaid costume in the episode "The Snowmen".

Dreaming for a kiss.

For today's shuffle, I went for a more casual Snow White look. Don't we all wish we had a similar sleeping schedules to hers every once in a while? I know I do! Our headbands match. :)





Snow White Trivia:
Some animators were opposed to the name Dopey, claiming that it was too modern a word to use in a timeless fairy tale. Walt Disney made the argument that William Shakespeare used the word in one of his plays. This managed to convince everyone, although any reference to the term "dopey" is yet to be found in any of Shakespeare's work.

A season to be "Twitterpated"!

It's a joy to be twitterpated! Thumper the rabbit.




Springtime is here! So I wanted to do some spring-time themes. Today, I'm Thumper!


Plus who doesn't love the snuggly-adorable woodland animals from Disney's original animated film "Bambi" (1942). I had a movie poster of Bambi in my bedroom as a child, and I always loved looking at the flowers printed on the paper. 


Here are some facts that I found about the film "Bambi". 

  • Bambi was intended to be Disney's second animated feature film, and pre-production began in 1936. But Walt's quest for perfection delayed the production, and four other films were completed and released before Bambi.
  •  Various animated sequences from Bambi were reused in other Disney feature films. Bambi and his mother appear in The Rescuers. Bambi's mother appears in the very first shot of Beauty and the Beast, and also in The Sword in the Stone, and The Jungle Book.
  • Some of the scenes in the film (woodland creatures and the forest fire) are actually unused footage from Pinocchio.



Thumper!


"Come on Bambi!!"
