<i>"Feminism is the radical notion that women are people."</i><br />
<i>-Cheris Kramarae and Paula Treichler</i><br />

Show off that awesome F-word loud and proud in this sweater from <a href="http://www.wickedclothes.com/" target="_blank">Wicked Clothes</a>! I'd been anxiously waiting for a while for this item to get re-stocked and as soon as it did I made it MINE!<br />
It's definitely way too hot to wear this in summer where I am so I can't wait to head back up north! If you'd like the unisex shirt instead of the sweater, you can find it <a href="http://www.wickedclothes.com/product/tri-blend-feminism-is-the-radical-notion-charity-shirt" target="_blank">here!</a><br />
<br />
Not only will you be sporting a prime piece of clothing fabness, you'll also be aiding a cause! $5 from each shirt/sweater purchase will be donated to Planned Parenthood.<br />

The sweater is Gildan heavy blend, 50% cotton, 50% polyester and is on sale for $29.99. Size XL pictured.<br />

Shorts up to there, don't care!: Cut-off Torrid jeans that I wasn't too fond of.<br />

Goofy face: Yeah I don't know what that was about!<br />

Sometimes you want blouses, other times you want dresses, BUT tons of the time you walk by a shirt and go "AW MAN, that's some funny stuff! I want that!" That's pretty much how I felt about every graphic shirt I bought over the weekend. I've got sexy, flirty, cute but I wanted fun! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I stepped into the odd goodness that is Hot Topic and picked up some cute graphic tees. The largest size I encountered was XXL. Every top pictured is XL in mens, but my curves fill them just fine. To the left, a shirt that makes me VERY happy but cause people like my roommate painful confusion, is a <a href="http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/Apparel/TShirts/Graphic//Taco+Cats+Space+T-Shirt-137921.jsp" target="_blank">Taco Cats Space Cat Shirt</a>. Food, cats and galaxy print. Why wouldn't I want it!? This shirt definitely stretches and gets a bit baggy but paired with some shorts and was good to go.</div>

Another piece of apparel that has me thinking I shouldn't be afraid to show off my arms. For a guys top, the cut is real cute and I don't think I'd mind a bold bra for a pop o' colour behind this bad boy.</div>

"I've been meaning to ask you…what's with that pocket on your shirt?"<br />
<br />
I saw this and I thought my roommate was going to have to re-start me heart! This is my fave out of the three items because it's really hard to forget Jake tootin' that booty-thang!<br />
ALSO I love cutting my shirts either across the shoulder or v-necking it but this tee is too perfect to possibly mess up. I bought this Jake-in-a-pocket shirt at FYE but you can also find it online at HT <a href="http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/PopCulture/EverythingElse/ComicsAnimeCartoons//Adventure+Time+Jake+In+Pocket+T-Shirt-149914.jsp" target="_blank">HERE</a><br />

Again, all three are men's XL and give way to a little stretch!

It's hot, it's sunny, so (IF YOU WANT) it's time to shed the layers and break out some lace! When it's hot I like all kinds of flow so when I saw this cami, all I could think is "SKIN SEASON"<br />
<br />
Unfortunately sold out, this blue lace cami top from <a href="http://www.torrid.com/torrid/Homepage.jsp;jsessionid=nWJcRF1Q5YybGWj9ww2Ftv5Rw2V5981z9hnFQZ4ZBLYJgylpGvY1!1778513193!NONE" target="_blank">Torrid</a> is so sexy but has its pros, cons and mehs.<br />
<br />
<b>PROS: </b>Airy, bright blue, lace, lace….lace.<br />
<b>CONS:</b> Snags on jean buttons. WAH<br />
<b>MEHS:</b> If you wear underwear that is high-rise it will peak-a-boo up n' out. You could totally wear something under this top if you prefer coverage, but if not and you dig colour coordination, be aware of sneaky panties.<br />
<br />
I love it but on a slightly serious note, it has definitely started a couple of heated conversations.<br />
<br />
I have a decent relationship with my body and as long as a person feels comfortable with what they wear they should shut out all criticism and just rock on. Someone close to me told me that I was brave for showing off my belly and other parts and I was instantly taken aback. Are there parts of me I should be scared of or others find scary?<br />
<br />
My body is not anyone else's concern and if they don't like it, I can't think of anything to tell them short of "You're ignorant, get lost." The only differences between my midsection and that of a bikini model's are that we are unique in our own way and that society prefers one over the other.<br />
<br />
I don't care what anyone finds "flattering" because my body is here for my enjoyment and not theirs. At the same time I'm well within my right to not have a happy relationship with my body ALL THE TIME and have, what I call, "bad days." I am allowed to take my shirt off at a beach and walk around in a bra and be happy with myself.<br />
<br />
I will not let you make me feel like I've brought down all the plagues on humanity just because I'm ok with my fabulous fat.<br />
<br />
Get yo' body positivity on!<br />

PLUS SIZE GALAXY LEGGINGS I CAN GET BEHIND ( and in!) While perusing the hosiery section of my much loved mecca <a href="http://Torrid.com/">Torrid.com</a>, my heart stopped and then fluttered as I came across the word "cosmic". Cosmic turned into space which turned it galaxy which turned into TAKE MY MONEY!<a href="http://www.torrid.com/torrid/Intimates/Hosiery//Blue+Cosmic+Printed+Leggings-10003276.jsp" target="_blank"> Blue Cosmic Printed Leggings</a> (also in black and white) for the win!<br />
<br />
Lovers of the standard <a href="http://www.torrid.com/torrid/Intimates/Hosiery//Basic+Black+Leggings-579094.jsp" target="_blank">Torrid basic leggings </a>be warned, these are not Torrid brand! These 95% Polyester 5% Spandex beauties are made by an LA-based company called See You Monday. Unfortunately their website is a business-to-business deal and only companies can register to check out the latest trends.<br />

I have quite a tummy on me but a size a 2 (the size I get in basic Torrid leggings) fits just fine!<br />
<br />
I've seen some not-so-lovely plus size galaxy prints and a lot of shaming for wearing spandex but I say GET OUTTA HEEERE with that noise! The first thing I noticed was how my thighs jiggled when I walked and guess what I thought? AWESOME.<br />
<br />
Whatever makes you feel lovely, sexy or SHOOOWWWW, wear it and wear it hot.<br />

It's that time again! This track has been a fave of mine for a while. It's one of those things-are-tough-but-keep-your-chin-up. It's definitely been one of those weeks but nothing boosts confidence like walking around knowing you are beautiful in every way and no one can take that from you!

So if you know me, you know I CAN'T resist polka dots (I get that from my mama) and I may have found my favourite summer dress yet!<br />
How could I say no to this fun n' flirty strappy number?! Sunny days in Arcata, CA plus this dress equals total babe and a half mode. Do I have a dress slightly similar? Is that slightly similar dress black? YEAH! SO? Polka dots everywhere!<br />
<br />
<b>Navy Blue Polka Dot Dress (Target $12)</b><br />
This light cotton dress is perfect for a number of occasions and you'll feel absolutely cute and comfortable at each one. It has two pockets (THANK YOU), false buttons on the chest and is cinched under the bust. The straps are attached to the back of the dress with buttons and can be removed, criss-crossed and turned into a halter.<br />

I paired the dress with a Forever 21+ navy blue, open knit cardigan. It's thin, breathable and provides coverage for people who may be nervous about their arms (ME) but this dress actually makes me feel hubba hubba enough to get over my fear!<br />

Any sandals, heels or cute sneaks can complete the outfit so go nuts! I also wore shorts because the dress rides a little high and the slightest bend will show off your panties (unless you go commando then that's a whole different story!)<br />
<br />
Accessory-wise, My silver hoops were a gift and I found my heart-shaped sunnies at a local thrift store, but you can find similar ones at <a href="http://www.dominodollhouse.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=600" target="_blank">Domino Dollhouse</a> or <a href="http://us.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=21&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33060&storeId=13052&productId=9736011&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=208713&parent_categoryId=208582&pageSize=20" target="_blank">Top Shop</a>!<br />

<b>SONG OF THE OUTFIT</b><br />
<div>
So I'm starting a new section each post! Song Of The Outfit! It's basically the song I feel most in the mood for when I wear each outfit. The track I've picked for this ensemble is "Shiver Shiver" by Walk The Moon. It's sassy, sexy and you can strut it real nice!</div>

Let's forget it ever happened and check out my pics instead! NO MIRROR PHOTOS! Yep I've entered a whole new world with my handy dandy tripod! Granted I'm not PERFECT at using it but I'll learn!<br />
So onto the clothing! Once again Forever 21+ has managed to sink it's claws into my wallet! Two lovely sheer blouses paired with some fun accessories equals happiness!<br />

<b><a href="http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=plus&Category=faith_tops&ProductID=2012308541&VariantID=">Sheer Contrast Shirt</a></b><br />
A black sheer top with grey collar/pocket/cuff trim that can be used for business or pleasure. I definitely like the style, however it's not all that sheer but if you're shy I'd recommend a tank top or bandeau! The sleeves are a little long so I prefer them rolled up a little below my elbow. I find that the blouse goes best with black skinny pants. Click the link above for more details!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.etsy.com/search?q=gold%20chains&view_type=gallery&ship_to=ZZ&min=0&max=0"><b>Gold Chain</b></a><br />
Now I found the gold chain in an antique store but Etsy has thousands of options I promise! Click the title and see!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.etsy.com/search?q=bowler%20hat&view_type=gallery&ship_to=ZZ&min=0&max=0"><b>Bowler Hat</b></a><br />
My bowler hat is one of my prized possessions because it's the only head gear to look perfect on me! It's no longer in stock at <a href="http://www.dominodollhouse.com/">Domino Dollhouse</a>, but don't worry, Etsy has you covered here too! Link it to check out a selection of sweet hats!<br />

<a href="http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=plus&Category=faith_tops&ProductID=2000048200&VariantID="><b>Pyramid Studded Collar Shirt</b></a><br />
My new favourite item! No questioning its sheerness, this royal blue blouse has gunmetal studs and kicks all kinds of butt! I like outfits that say cute and tough at the same time. The model in the link above has paired the top with some forest green pants and a leather jacket. I love the combo so they might be the next items on my wish list! And as with the first shirt, if you're a little shy, tank tops are your friends! If you're not, more power to you!<br />
<br />
The picture below gives you a closer look at the lovely detail AND a little surprise under the collar. The gunmetal spike pendant definitely compliments the studs, and although it's also a Forever 21 find, it is no longer in stock =[<br />
HOWEVER the site still has some sweet spikey accessories<br />

I just made a silent pact with myself to hold off on the shopping! My poor closet can't take it!<br />
Yes a bunch of new arrivals in the Forever 21+ line have caught my eye and I'm trying to hold off my itchy wallet fingers. Bright colours, rompers, dresses, shorts….I need to catch my breath.<br />
Below are a few of the items I'm thinking about inquiring about at my local F21+:<br />

<b>Flounced Strapless Watercolour Print Dress</b><br />
<b>$27.80</b><br />
This is a print that I've never seen before! Satin with and elasticized waist and neckline and underbust sash, this dress looks like a head-turner to me. I like the use of the long simple gold chain on the model but I'm not digging the shoes.<br />
You be the judge! Check out the product and think about how YOU would accessorize <a href="http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=plus&Category=faith_dresses&ProductID=2000041313&VariantID=">this dress!</a><br />

I've been a ditz for daisy prints since I was little! The V-neck is dainty, the daisies are fresh, and the cutout in the back is pure fun. You'd have to be careful accessorizing this dress since chunky jewelry would probably create an overpowering effect of busyness!

<b>ROMPER TIME!</b> Whether fun abstract prints or solid colours are your style, Forever 21+ seems to be able to satisfy both tastes with what they have to offer. I love both these looks and paired with the right shoes or sun hat, they're sure to be a couple of spotlight items in your closet. Comfy, cute and classy are words to live by, and I think these two items fit the bill. Click on either photo for more info!<br />

I discovered <a href="http://www.dominodollhouse.com/index.php" target="_blank">Domino Dollhouse</a> (sizes 1X-4X) a few weeks ago and was blown away by their bold, fabulous, fun patterns. Not your typical paisley plus-size clothing. and I'm a sucker for polka dots so when I saw the <a href="http://www.dominodollhouse.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=383" target="_blank">Button Button Top (Red/White)</a> I had to have it!<br />

This wonderful <a href="http://www.dominodollhouse.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=204" target="_blank">Bowler Hat</a> (Also from Domino Dollhouse) completed my outfit. The closest thing I've come to in hats are beanies. It's always been really difficult to fit hats to my head shape, and until I took a chance with this bowler, my hat confidence was in shambles!

PLAID! Plaid always makes me happy!<br />
To the left, I am pictured in a Red Lurex Plaid Shirt with button cinching in the back to really make it really hug your curves . (I didn't discover the buttons until I tried it on. Pleasant surprise!)<br />
Unlike some droopy plaid tops, this one seemes to really understand a lady's body. The sleeves are long but I rolled them up. I always mean business!<br />
Find this top at your local Torrid or online in red, teal and black, or purple!<br />
I like to wear it with leggings and a pair of oxford flats, but the shirt can really come together with any choice of bottoms! Click the picture below for more product info!<br />

I was so very close to posting a picture taken with a real camera but the resulting photos were very fuzzy, so here I am with my handy camera phone!<br />
Over the holidays I acquired a lot of fabulous Torrid pieces, so hopefully there will be more updates!<br />
I'm quite the regular at my local Torrid, so much so that a couple members of staff have memorized my sizes! One staff member went to the back and came out with some lovely items, including the striped ponte jacket pictured.<br />
<br />
<b>Black and White Striped Cropped Ponte Jacket</b><br />
The cropped jacket gives a flair of femininity with ruched sleeves and for those of you that like a little closure, there is a single button. The only con I find (a con that I find with most blazers produced by Torrid) is that the jacket has fake pockets….WHY TORRID?! Ladies need pockets too! <b>Size Pictured: 3</b><br />
<br />
<b>Tripp NYC Black Skinny Pant</b><br />
I haven't had a nice pair of black pants for a while. This pair really hugs the curves, however I realized that although, at the time, I was wearing a size 22 in jeans, I needed to buy a the black pants in a size bigger (24). And for those that like a bit of stretch and love the feel of Source of Wisdom, you may find yourself pining for those blue jeans since the waistline of the Tripp pants isn't very stretchy. However I find them comfortable enough and I love that they are versatile, so whether you're in a fun flirty mood, or you're ready for business, slip into these with a nice pair of chucks, wedges, or heels and you're good to go! <b>Size Pictured: 24R</b><br />
<b><br /></b><br />
<b>Striped Tank Top</b><br />
The tank top pictured is a top I've had since high school. Purchased at Hot Topic in the throws of my punk/goth youth, I used it in my stripey ensemble today and I must say it worked wonderfully. Personally, I would not venture to partner a top with a very busy patterns with the jacket. Stripes or solid colours would be my approach, but honestly to each their own!<br />
<br />

Time for some warmth in the chilly season! Put together a simple outfit from some sweet Black Friday buys and a couple of these items are up for grabs at amazing prices on Torrid.com!<br />
A cardigan, boots, and leggings make for a comfortable ensemble! I'm really digging Fair Isle print right now and had to snag this cardi. The tank top is my own, a school tee that I cut up for comfort. The colours at play here: grey, black, and white!<br />

Hello! I'm back! Please excuse the months and months of absence but big changes have taken place! I moved up to NorCal for school, I'm still settling into the way of things up here and guess what….<br />
THERE'S NO TORRID OR FOREVER 21 out here! I have been stripped away from my places of worship! OH THE HUMANITY! Luckily there's always online shopping!<br />
It's cold up here and now comes the time to pack away the shorts and tank tops and bust out the sweaters! I didn't seem to pack enough, but that slight problem has allowed me to present the excuse that I need to buy more! Item A to the left proves that I've done just that.<br />
<br />
Straight from Forever 21+, a navy/hot pink Tribal Shawl Cardigan.<br />
100% acrylic<br />
Banded hemline and cuff<br />
Long sleeved<br />
HAND WASH ONLY<br />
<br />

It's a knit cardi, and light to medium in weight. I wouldn't recommend it for a 40 degree day, but it's nice for those nippy mornings. I'm picture wearing a size 3X. Below you can see the pattern up close. Click the picture of the model to go directly to the product page! Keep an eye out for some great deals on the site! A fe days ago there was a sale on $7.99 basic dress BOGO and within half an hour they sold out! Getting more for your money is NEVER a bad thing!<br />

I'm not usually one to purchase a top with an elastic hem and no bust cinching, but I was pleasently surprised by this navy chiffon blouse from Torrid. 100% polyester, the sheer top is perfect for a lovely, breezy summer night. I'm wearing a tank top underneath so as not to be overexposed!<br />

At first glance, it may look like a simple polka dot pattern. There are dots but you'll find that the pattern also includes skull and crossbones!<br />
A cutsey detail for the lady pirate in us all!<br />

Sorry for the bathroom picture, but there aren't many people around able to take photos of me! To the left, you'll find me, pictured in my coziest (but cutest) ensemble yet. Forever in love with 3/4 sleeve tops, Torrid has on offer a variety of these, from paisley to floral print. A very light polyester fabric, I've found this top actually does well in the summer heat. This size i'm wearing is a 3x (22/24). I picked out this along with a blue floral top. The picture may not focus on them very well, but my pants are jeggings, my first pair in fact, and I have to say I HONESTLY see no difference between them and a well-fit pair of jeans. EXTREMELY comfortable, they come in Small, Regular, Tall, and Extra Tall.<br />

<br />
When Forever 21's plus size line first appeared (originally called Faith21) I found its apparel to be boring drapery with an intention that seemed to be to hide the female form rather than showcase it. A bunch of paisley prints, plaid, ruffles, and basics, were not enough to impress me.<br />
After a couple of uninteresting buys I shunned the line as another cheap attempt on a companies part to acclimate into the growing number of big-girl friendly clothing stores.<br />
<br />
A few days ago, while shopping with family, we went into Forever 21, and I decided to head over to the small corner that the store seems to have created for all the shapely women to accumulate and browse, and I must say I was extremely impressed, and went on a grabbing frenzy and headed for the changing room.<br />
<br />
One thing I find frustrating with stores is that when it comes to plus-size clothing, they don't take current fashion trends into account and sew together whatever large, billowy, lackluster prints, they have lying around, and sell it at unheard of prices. Forever 21 seems to have made a significant effort in remedying this issue and is utilizing popular trend patterns in their plus-size line.<br />

These are A FEW of the things I bought. I can't wait to go back and find more lovely items, HOWEVER, I do wish the design team would integrate more of the smaller sized clothes into the line. As far as I can tell all the patterns, colours, and styles are wearable by almost anyone.

<br />
An advocate for full-figured woman everywhere, Davis was devoted to promoting pride and acceptance in regards to woman of all shapes and sizes.<br />
<br />
Although no details of her death have been released, Davis did undergo knee surgery on Monday.<br />
<br />
PLUS Model Magazine Editor Madeline Jones had this to say about Davis in a blog post today:<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, Century, Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><b>"Mia was a super model and industry leader because it was her love for the women she represented that kept pushing her when the industry itself did not embrace her. Anyone else would have given up, but Mia remained steadfast in her career, knowing that she was not just doing it for her own benefit, but for women of all ages. Never one to put anyone down, Mia was about lifting up people and connecting them with others to help them on their journey and never asking for anything in return."</b></span>Medusahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16667789431173107229noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-290694069104780021.post-78827869915986959142011-04-27T05:46:00.000-07:002011-04-27T05:46:41.925-07:00Wish List Wednesday: Coach Natalie Collection<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>I love Coach. I love the flexibility of the styles, colour, everything!!<br />
I've had my eye on items in the recent Natalie Collection for a while. Ever hovering in my Blog folder, I'd link myself to everyday and pine over these sweet handbags.<br />
Charming, tightly-woven straw wallets, clutches, and totes. A charming addition to any flirty spring outfit! The delicate flower appliqués are what piqued my interest. Browns and golds paired with white accents!<br />
<br />
Although there are a variety of accessories in the collection, the tote pictured to the left (Floral Embellished Straw Natalie Tote) is the one I'm dying to add to purse garden!<br />

CONS:</div><div class="" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;"><b>-Shower experience:</b> Upon distributing the body wash you see that it's a very thick, lotion like look. Even after rinsing the last of the suds off, I still felt like there was wash residue left on me.

</tbody></table>I won't have access to a computer until Saturday night, so an early post won't hurt right?!<br />
A couple of weekends ago I noticed a friends' new boat shoes. I was jealous of his fancy footwear and swore on the stars that I would find a pair for myself.<br />
<br />
Two days after the trip. I found a pair for myself.<br />
<br />
With my recent love of skinny jeans comes the need for appropriate shoes and I find that these are a sweet addition to most types of pants. They are very comfortable and I like the cute plaid detail ^_^<br />
<br />
I bought them at JCPenney for $25 but it seems the price has gone up about $10.

I've never had a fantastic, basic makeup regimen. My usual morning consisted of slathering on whatever thick, cakey, Target shade of foundation MIGHT match my skin, and then attacking my face with mineral powder I THOUGHT was good for me. Needless to say my skin became miserable, and being of the dark variety, acne leaves its mark for a LONG time. I grew weary of the oilyness, flakiness, and shades much darker than my skin and with a big convention approaching I decided I needed some TLC.<br />
I was told that M.A.C. was overrated in the skin area, and my mother's brief, painful, blotchy encounter with Lancome put me off as her and I have similar allergies. I wanted something light, something that would not irritate my skin, but would mesh with my needs as I have a sensitive, combination dry and oily epidermis. My skin is my biggest crutch, I'm very embarassed by it.<br />
My friend Claudia seemed very happy with her set of Clinique makeup and then it clicked. Why not get makeup from a company with a sucessful skincare line? Something's got to tie in right?<br />
I bought the following products on Wednesday and I have to say that so far I'm ecstatic. Light, easy to apply, and with great coverage, I'd reccomend these products to anyone (Click on photos to buy products):<br />

This pressed powder topped everything off. It made my skin look very natural. No weird, visible, chalky residue on the surface. Even with this third step everything feels so light, I'm not afriad of brushing my cheek against someones shoulder and pulling away only to see I've left some of my face on them (It's happened….it's embarrassing) Wonderful end to a fabulous skin makeup cllection! <a href="http://www.clinique.com/product/CATEGORY7567/PROD13076/Makeup/The_Brush_Collection/index.tmpl">(Click here for recommended powder brush)</a><br />

</tbody></table>A couple of cute buys from my clothing mecca, Torrid!<br />
To the left, lovely flowey, blouse with a charming floral patter and satin bow. I saw this online first and went in store to try it.<br />
I was hooked from the first twirl.<br />
It's a personal preference of mine that I do not expose my arms. Although I am confident in myself, we all have those hangups that get a hold of us every blue moon.<br />

</tbody></table>Anyways, I'm very pleased with<br />
such a comfy purchase, but since it's see-through, I had to pair it with a cute tank top!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I chose this salmon-coloured cami (above) according to the flower design on the lower half of the blouse. I try to stay as far from white as possible so as not to make my chest appear bigger than it already is.<br />
I'm waiting for the right occasion to wear the two items, perhaps a dinner, or a night outing?<br />
Who knows?! Either way I can't wait!<br />

</tbody></table>Old Navy why must you do this to me?<div>My go-to store for simple tops, and I saw this a couple of days ago and YES it's online.</div><div>This tunic plus black leggings plus my western ankle boots….I'd be so happy…and so would my mother since she likes me better when my butt is covered!</div><div>I see a lot of confused commenters. They seemed think they were purchasing a dress. </div><div>This is NOT a dress. Don't expect knee length cuteness. When I held it up, it ended a little toward the middle of my thighs and I'm 5'7"</div><div>Click on the picture to link to the product! </div><div>Enjoy!</div>Medusahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16667789431173107229noreply@blogger.com0
