Do you want to know the most difficult thing about being in the geek community? Everyone is so. Damn. Talented. And when a bunch of talented people hone their craft and flock to places to sell it, well, let’s just say it takes quite the toll on my wallet. Linda Heredia of 1138 Clothing is one of those people.
I don’t know about you guys, but every so often a stumble across a shop or brand and stare wide-eyed at their homepage with a gut feeling that screams, “I think this was made for me.” That’s exactly how I felt when I discovered Utinni Bikini last year.
Being a geek girl with a love for fashion is really starting to take a toll on my wallet, and it’s getting to the point where there are so many amazing brands and companies out there that I don’t even care anymore.
You may have seen me shout out Prophecy Girl on our Instagram (@sartorialgeek) in the past, but I love them so much, we’re bringing that love to the blog, too.
Through our Cosmetic Corner segment, I think it’s safe to say I’ve made one thing very clear: I really, really love makeup.
Obviously, I’m no Instagram-make-up-artist-level expert. BUT! I’m perfectly comfortable with that. It’s just fun— to play, to experiment, and to splurge in the name of self-care. (Thank god we have that as an excuse now to rationalize buyer’s remorse, right?)
Well, recently, I found my new favorite place to do that: Besame Cosmetics.
