So this is a post I’m really excited about! I teamed up with the NTC Nike Women’s Store in Chicago to help them announce their Liberty x Nike Bourton Pack. Exciting, huh? What a dream come true to take photos for Nike officially. They gave me an arm load of sneakers and I set off to…

I got this hoodie a while back while I was in Portland. It’s an interesting piece to have in your closet. The bold colors and length make a statement indeed. At first thought, it’s great for workouts or a walk to the gym. But I wanted to take it a step further and turn it…

Originally that was to make lunches easier for workers in the Strip District to eat on the go. It stuck around because it’s delicious. I also got to see the Rubber…

Read MoreI’m in the empire business — Breaking Bad season finale party
Breaking Bad is over and I’m sad. But the season finale last night was really good, a great ending to the past few years of craziness. I had a few people over to celebrate the end of Walt’s empire. We had some fun memorabilia too. All authentic I might add: from Tuco’s teeth, to Lilies of the Valley,…

So this is a cool Dark Knight Rises fun fact: the building in the first few photos is where Batman and Bane fought. (That’s me channeling my inner Bane in case you couldn’t tell. Ha!) The following pictures are from the Carnegie Art Museum. Which reminds me, you should watch the History Channel’s Men Who…
