WOMAN AND INNOVATION

Two words with a nice ring to it. Just visit giddyspinster's etsy SHOP and you will hear the ring.

"These shoes are used/upcycled. The concept is about hard-working women, the increasingly artificial nature of American femininity, and the impossible images that women face in our society. It's a prickly, spiky, sticky situation..."

"This wall-hanging is intended to be a comment on the artificial nature of feminity in our society."

Innovative pieces of art, that have the purpose of illustrating what it is like to be a woman. And being a woman can be hard work. Indeed.

must have!

I hate wearing lipstick, and lipgloss isn't nice for a person who has long hair and likes to ride bicycles. I prefer lip balm, it looks more healthy and natural. Very recently, I ordered two lip tints from Flourish bath and body. And they are amazing! In the midst of procrastinating, I took this poor self-portrait wearing the redwood lip tint. It only costs $6!

From the description in the little shop owned by Brooke Marton:

"Will they last all day, through eating, drinking, kissing and clarinet practice? Nope. (They also won't do your taxes or make you look 10 lbs thinner.) But I think you will prefer reapplying this smooth and light gloss vs. having sticky petroleum-based goop on your lips all day (did I mention these are made from natural ingredients?)"

That pretty much says it all!
