This movement is creating an increase in donations to thrift stores and consignment shops. As someone who loves finding amazing dresses, this … Continue reading Sparking Joy with the MN T-Girls!
I love how clothes can change...everything. I love how certain patterns, colors, and styles can minimize or enhance certain characteristics of our body. Black tends to be slimming, dresses with larger prints are usually flattering to us tall girls, and a skirt with horizontal strips can balance out a body that is considered top-heavy.

So, where's a t-girl to go? … Continue reading An Alluring Evening!

This may come as a surprise to you, but I love to shop. Shopping can be intimidating for those in our community. It's impossible to predict what our experiences will be like.
