Top 5 Female Heroes
In honor of Indigenous Peopleâs Day, we have to talk about a native female hero as well. Danielle Moonstar is a Native American woman of the Cheyenne Nation. Sheâs part of the X-Men Universe so she discovers she has mutant powers when she hits puberty. Moonstar is able to manifest her nightmares into reality and has some telepathic abilities. Throughout her life in the marvel universe, her powers are taken away and yet she still maintained some of her telekinetic abilities because she was an underappreciated badass.Â
Top 5 Female Villains
Shego: I love Shego from Kim Possible. She knows that she works for an idiot, but sheâs seemingly happy with her career despite her sassy attitude. Honestly, sheâs kind of inspiring outside of the crimes she commits. She does what she wants and says what she wants and has the power to manipulate some sort of green energy. Not to mention sheâs educated, holds a degree in child development, and even tutored another villainâs son.
Our Top 5 Latinx Style Icons
We have to start our list with Selena Quintanilla. This style icon captured the hearts of billions before and after her untimely passing. Sheâs definitely one of the original petite curvy queens and her love of red lipstick and high-waisted pants and crop tops have definitely influenced a lot of the styles that we see today. If you ever find yourself in Corpus Cristi you have to visit the Selena museum where you can see some of her iconic costumes and dresses as well as shop for Selena merch.Â
Top 5 Activities For The Fall Season
Last but certainly the most fun, grab your friends and hit up your local wineries and breweries. I love a good fall sangria a trip to a winery will be the perfect place to pick out the perfect bottle for the mix. Although I do not like beer, beer tasting is actually a lot of fun. I love challenging the beer experts to find something I can actually finish a cup of.Â

Beyonce Quotes To Live By
âThe more you mature, you realize these imperfections make you more beautiful.â Itâs funny because itâs so easy to understand this quote when you think about someone elseâs beautiful imperfections, but when it comes to our own itâs hard to find the beauty in them. This quote has helped me fall in love with the fupa.  Â

The last trend weâll talk about today is the headscarf. Now I know there has been a lot of controversy over the bonnet over the summer, but the scarf is trending. So, grab your silk/satin scarves and protect your crown sis.Â
Top 5 Fashion Trends Of Fall 2021
This next trend is for our glam queens. SEQUINS and SPARKLES are in, and not just for evening-wear, but as an everyday trend. This fall we will be rocking our sparkles as tops, skirts, and pants, all paired with something neutral and flowy to calm down the glitter. I personally canât wait to try out the pants from our Emily set with an oversized button-down or oversized blazer.
Top 5 Back-To-School Fall Essentials
Fall is the season of kickbacks and house parties and those outfits are definitely not the same as club outfits. So itâs time to upgrade that club dress to a house party set that screams chill and educated. We love sets because theyâre easy to mix and match after you wear them together so that you can party every week without feeling like youâre always wearing the same outfit.Â
We're back!
- Recycled fashion: So we all know about thrifting and discount stores, but if youâre like me these places trigger my anxiety because of the overwhelming amounts of products and clutter. I still find my way in one every year though because letâs be honest you canât beat those prices. However, when I just canât do it I love to repurpose my clothing, and there are tons of ways to do this without being able to sew (although knowing how to sew quadruples that number). As a plus-size gal, my thighs are strong, strong enough to rub wholes into my fashion nova jeans (my Ivy Reina jeans have made it 2 years Iâm just saying), so one of my favorite ways to recycle is to turn those wholey fashion nova jeans into shorts for the summer. Not only are you recycling, but youâre also saving money on buying more shorts when you already loved the fit of your jeans.Â
