How the hell do men wear polo shirts without looking like they just left casual Fridays at the office or they got dressed by their Momma for school picture day?
Like, is there a secret here? Have I missed a trick? My spouse loathes polos, mostly because his ex wore "corporate help desk uniform" polos until they stank with impenetrable inept white boy BO. But I feel like there has to be a way to pull it off for smart casual. I feel like they're a reasonable warm weather choice. I don't like the transmasc standard short-sleeved print button down -- I'd rather roll up the sleeves of my regular button down. But polos feel like they should work?
Fashionable Networking: Making a Statement at Professional Events
Welcome to the world of professional networking, where your style can be just as influential as your elevator pitch! Ever noticed how some individuals light up the room and draw a crowd at networking events? Often, it’s their fashion sense doing the talking.
From choosing colors that reflect your personality to finding that perfect balance between elegance and comfort, your fashion choices can…
One of the best ways to do that is to learn more about color theory. 🎨
Color theory is the art and science of using color to create harmonious and expressive combinations. It can help you choose colors that suit your personality, mood, and occasion.
A great resource for color theory is A Dictionary of Color Combinations by Sanzo Wada. This book is a treasure trove of 348 color combinations based on 159 colors, inspired by traditional and modern Japanese aesthetics.
Wada was an artist, teacher, and kimono designer who lived in the early 20th century. He was ahead of his time in developing color combinations that are still relevant and beautiful today. You can find this book using my link in my profile.
Color theory can help you transform your look and your mood with just a few hues. 🌈
If you want to learn more about color theory and how to apply it to your style, follow me as I’ll be creating outfits using color combos in the book. You’ll be amazed by how much color can make a difference. 🤩

this drawing started off as tv crowley and aziraphale dressed like their book cover counterparts, but then I got carried away and it turned out... not being exactly that anymore 🤷🏻♀️
so... late 80s/early 90s au? (aka. literally the book lol)
My physics professor just told the class the wildest story from when he was in grad school about building a high voltage unauthorized Tesla coil with the ability to kill a man
two lonely rabbits, two hearts beating as one 🐇🖤🤍 (animated gif)
now on inprnt !
old sketch from march I decided to finish <3 usually when one of my sketches (intending to become a completed drawing) gets put on the backburner, it never surfaces. I usually have to prioritize other drawings and then months or years pass and once I have time, I lose interest and start other drawings in their place... but I'm glad I mustered up the energy to finish this one, ESPECIALLY since I strongly felt I needed more gothic pieces in my gallery hehe
the relationships between characters in this series are so interesting, because there are so many character parallels. I actually had to change the personality of white alice from the sketch to the final, since I .. think I misinterpreted her story! (so I think it turned out less gothic horror than desired but you know what I'll take this <3) I first read this story when I was 14 and I 1000% BET I'll still be finding nuances and new details in the writing years into the future...
I had a lot of fun with the animation albeit just being a blink animation 😩👍 but blinks can be animated in a variety of ways! in terms of my animation skills, I do consider myself on the weaker side. so if i can integrate more animation frames into my illustrations, it'll help me become more familiar and comfortable with the medium. I especially like the difference in how many frames it takes for dark Alice vs white Alice to blink. I think the blinks came out fluidly and I'm quite satisfied with how this drawing came out!
“My arms are too long” will undoubtedly go down as one of Doctor Who’s creepiest phrases, nevertheless this line is the one that haunts me:
There’s something about the casualness of how this line is spoken that’s so deeply sinister, and Tennant’s dead-eyed, subtly malicious stare is absolutely bone-chilling
I just learned Indiana (USA) State Fair has a llama costume contest...
I spent the past 15min looking at costumed camelids thanks to you, this is incredible 😭 Thank you for this important piece of llama trivia!
(Hard not to picture a fascinated alien scientist trying to explain to their alien colleagues that these super interesting little monkeys who keep inventing all this strange but complex stuff like smart toasters and online music streaming will also sometimes go "time for me to dress up my pet llama as a banana split" and other hairless monkeys will react like "give that genius a TROPHY." The alien audience blinks. Alien scientist courageously starts explaining each word individually; we'll go back to absorbing that sentence later)
