Indie Fashion Feature: SciFeye Candy

I feel like I have done a disservice in some small way by not presenting independent fashion options from a more local perspective. Yes, the outside world is a big, beautiful place filled with flounce skirts and enticing handbags, but Canada definitely has its share of independent fashion labels to choose from.

Becky with the good hair

With Beyoncé’s newest multi-media release Lemonade fans have been in a tizzy, but for all the wrong reasons. The release is filled with references to various personal situations involving her daughter and family, as well as a few involving her hip-hop mogul husband, Jay-Z.

Comic Corner: A family affair

I originally read Grendel upon recommendation from a friend, and I will admit I was skeptical. Upon first inspection, it appears to be the lovechild of Jeph Loeb Ă  la Daredevil: Yellow, and Robert Kirkman, neither of which I have been particularly impressed by in the past.

Packing tips

Now, we all know that, though the weekends away are often a blast, preparing for them is frustrating and awful. I mean seriously, what do you bring? You have to have a little of everything in your closet so that you’re prepared for any situation.

Indie fashion feature: Loungefly

What’s better than a good handbag? In the land of Loungefly, absolutely nothing! As a self-professed (and publicly-professed, for that matter) nerd queen, I often find it difficult to find high quality accessories that allow me to incorporate my love of anime, comics, and videogames into my everyday wardrobe.

This means war

With all the hype surrounding the new movie, I thought it was about time that I pick up Mark Millar’s Civil War. Before I begin, keep in mind that the Civil War storyline—the division of the Avengers into two separate warring factions—is actually a plot that’s been redone quite frequently, so this particular one may not act as a word for word script preview of the movie.
