Today’s thing seemed right because I keep thinking about how awesome they would look on a Zoom video conference call… And because they made me happy. Oh, and because they would be extra awesome for April Fool’s Day (and all the other days, too!).

While Fashion Brand Company may sound generic, their designs are anything but. Artist-turned-fashion designer Penelope Gazin is the genius behind all the crazy/wonderful designs, and she’s making sure her company and her fashions are body positive, gender fluid, and all-inclusive.

And if the fashions themselves aren’t unexpected enough for you, Gazin also makes matching Mommy and Me outfits so you and your pet lizard (yes, I said lizard) can wear the same outfits. I may not get the lizard thing, but I LOVE her sense of humor and whimsy (and it helps that I like lizards).

You can see all of Fashion Brand Company’s wonderfully whimsical wares on their website and on Instagram and Facebook.

I’ve done about 6 variations of this top in different fabrics and slightly different fits and I feel like I finally got it perfect! Easy comfortable cotton/spandex fabric and is machine washable and keeps its shape. I’m very into this piece. Real mother of pearl buttons. I might do a non-cropped version in a different color someday.

Official @trixiemattel dress is coming back for its 3rd batch and the pre-order is live now! Fabric is just slightly different (slightly paler pink) and I also listened to the feedback that the plus sizes fit on the small side so I’ve adjusted them to fit more true to size. New exact measurements for adjusted sizes xl-4xl are on the listing. First photo was taken by @leila.art.design

I have 20 misspelled sweaters (museuh of hodern fart) that i will put online today at 1 Pm pst for $28 (which is less than 1/2 of what I was originally going to retail them for) Xs-xl (the xs fits more cropped and then the larger sizes are longer and more traditionally “unisex”) – exact measurements will be on the site. Embroidered (incorrectly) with a vintage embroidery machine.
