    Do-It-Yourself-Tuesdays: MJ Inspired Embellished T-Shirt

    Right now everyone is re-thinking and re-styling 80s trends and glam rock.

    I Love You, Band (But Stop Being So Annoying)

It makes it so hard to defend you when I tell my friends about my favorite artists. Actually, it makes it hard to admit to anyone that you happen to be one of them. And I want to make them like you, really, I do.
