FIRST POST!!!11!

Yes, another fashion blog to populate the world wide internets. But this is not like most other fashion blogs. This one's crunchy AND chic—just like me.

I'm doing something a little unconventional here. You won't find GET THIS BUY NOW links all over my posts. I'm not getting paid commission from retailers, and you can't support the three R's (reduce, reuse, recycle) if you're always buying new stuff. That's where the 'crunchy' comes in. Salvaging, repurposing, thrifting—all that good stuff is in here. I'm anti-trendy, so if you're trying to learn about what's hot (i.e., what everyone else wearing), you're not going to find that here. Nope. Instead, you'll find fashion inspiration on how to make your own look. While I can understand the appeal to ready-made off-the-shelf outfits (who has time to think when they dress themselves?), I'm of a mind that clothing is a form of art.
