dear friends and fashionistas,

i love everything you have on the website. seriously, after living in LA for 4 years and being in the college world of heinous miniskirts worn with uggs, it is a creativity rebirth to see my friends still working it out and being unconventionally hot (but let's be honest, conventionally
hot too).

shopmycloset. so hot right now.

love you always, 6

yes! i concur! UGGS and MINISKIRTS = DISASTER!

i just dropped my dresses off at the drycleaner at 7am... i'm gonna pick them up in the evening and give them to the princess project. i vaguely remember how important it seem to me then (but not it's not a big deal to me anymore) since i was a naive teenager living in a high school bubble- how the prom meant the world to me- and when i went, everything HAD to be perfect or else I would break into tears.

Thank you everyone for taking the time out to donate your new and newly old dresses! A dress sitting in the closet may mean nothing to you, but it may mean the world to a 16 year old girl for a whole three hours. :)
