As I mentioned earlier this week, Monday was the Omnivore’s 31st birthday! We celebrate in style by throwing a game night soirée in honor of his favorite decade: the 80′s. There was Atari, Nintendo, Simon, and the oh-so-grown-up battleshots. More importantly, there was 80s style costuming. Unfortunately, the photos taken later in the evening of [...]

Faux Fashion Friday: A Stylish Surprise & GIVEAWAY! – CONTEST CLOSED

Last week, after months of drooling over their online inventory of vintage & vintage-inspired dresses, I placed my very first order with ModCloth.com.
