One year ago this weekend I went shopping at the Tanger Outlets. My reasoning for that? To look for my favorite brand of designer purse known as Coach. I came away that day feeling confident as my gender nonconformity journey was just beginning to heat up. I started to gain interest in Coach in theContinue reading “Happy Coachiversary!”

It’s been a while but I do have some great content coming to Stylish and Trendy and, it’s a special anniversary this weekend for me as well. Plus, it’s time for me to use that Old Navy Super Cash. Let’s kick it off with my first Laurel Highlands Toastmasters meeting since I joined last Saturday.Continue reading “Being Unified at Laurel Highlands Toastmasters”

The things that make me tick are finally coming back into play. Those are Toastmasters, my blog, and my fashion sense. It’s contest season and most events are in person once again. I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to make the ones I want to be at, but I’ll make the most of every opportunity.Continue reading “Best Day of 2022”

It felt great to attend my first in person Toastmasters event in two years. It felt great to get out of the house on a cold February day. It felt great to talk to people again, who get me and my gender nonconformity ⚧ 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍🌈 . I hope to have more opportunities like thatContinue reading “First Speech Contest in Two Years”

1999 was an interesting year to say the least. It was the last year of the 20th century and we were uncertain whether or not the Y2K computer bug was going to shut our world down. It was my last year of high school before I started college. It was the year the St. LouisContinue reading “Greatest Show on Turf”

A 4-1 start to the 2018 campaign ended with nine losses in their last eleven games. Enough was enough and it was time for aContinue reading “Cincinnati’s Super Season”

I don’t do many sports blogs but, today’s an exception. Imagine how different my life would be if I did though. I love talking about style and fashion on here and this journey has been a great one for me. Anyway, onto today’s blog post. Congratulations goes out to the Los Angeles Rams for theirContinue reading “Rams Win 2021 Super Bowl”

Over the last two weeks I got my order from Old Navy as I saw some pieces that caught my eye. Since I’m getting established at my new job, my gender nonconformity has come back. My crew has no problem seeing me express myself, even if others might not understand and that’s ok. I’ve receivedContinue reading “Old Navy Try-on Blog”

I was introduced to 512 Coffee and Ice Cream on a sunny October day. I was going there to try out their Pumpkin Spice latte while doing my coffeehouse tour for the best PSL and fall treats. I was quite impressed with the service and the cafe itself. Today was my second visit to 512Continue reading “Valentine’s Day Coffee in Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood”

To answer the question that is the title of today’s blog, I’ll make that very simple. I’m celebrating Valentine’s Day with the person I’m spending the rest of my life with— ME. Inspired by an Instagram influencer and beauty/fashion blogger, I’m celebrating self-love this year. I will buy some chocolates later this week; however, IContinue reading “How I’m Spending Valentine’s Day ❤️ ❤️ ❤️”
