"Love Chuck Taylor's"  Custom Converse For The Entire Family    It's going on two years now since I met Kelly owner, creator and one woman show of the amazing custom converse brand LoveChuckTaylors. When I received an email from Kelly introducing me to her business and what she does I was pretty excited to say the least. A woman who specializes in taking something I already love and making it even more awesome and having it reflect my personal style! This was great news to hear!  The beautiful and passion driven Kelly creator of LoveChuckTaylors Kelly started LoveChuckTaylors back in May of 2013 after she had done some customizing to her own converse with some stud details. Her love for converse shoes was undeniable and after making her self a pair of custom Chucks she decided to share her passion and joy with others! Thus, LoveChuckTaylors was born!  What is LoveChuckTaylors?  LoveChuckTaylors is your number one shop for ...

Dear 16 Year Old Me....

Image
"Dear Sixteen Year Old Me..."   My name is Emily, I just turned 27 years old. I'm a single mother of two boys, a professional pinup model, Internet personality, YouTuber, and I have a full time job. When I was 16 I never would have thought in a million years my life would be where it is today. I never thought I would be divorced or a strong image for women to look up to. I never thought I would be a single mother or a pinup model. It's crazy the turns our lives make depending on our choices. I can honestly say I haven't always made the best choices but due to the situations I was put in at such a young age I think I handled the best my young heart and mind could.   I grew up in a very sheltered home. I was home schooled my whole life, had zero friends, and spent most of my time involved in studying make up and fashion. I met my ex husband in the last few months of my 16th year. Our relationship lasted nine years. In that nine yea...

Doll Style Breakdown: Cozy Casual

Lazy and adorable!  Life is measured in moments. Moments are created in time. Most days I find myself with very little time. I go to bed with out even considering what I will wear the next day and don't think twice about it as I lay my head on my pillow way later than I had planned. When I wake up the next day I feel accomplished if my hair and make up both turn out ok and then I start digging in my closet. I recently through together a lazy outfit that came together well enough to blog about. You don't always have to be well thought out and fancy to look cute. Sometimes all it takes is some low key confidence and a band T!  Let's check out my outfit shall we!  This Misfits T is one of my favorites but wasn't so easy to get ahold of in my size. Took some time and now that I have it I put it to good use. This went on first this morning then I was off to find pants! (Cops don't like it when you leave the house with out pants so)  Jeans! Da...

Finding Love After Abuse

Image
  Fairy tales, wedding wishes, romance in hearts and flowers, it's what all little girls grow up wanting and picturing for themselves. It's like we have this pre-programmed idea in our brains about how relationships are suppose to be. The "chick flick" romantic comedies we tend to place ourselves in when we watch and say "That's the guy I want. The relationship I want"... I had those moments, I had those wants, but unfortunately I came to the realization after almost a decade with the "man of my dreams", several affairs, and years of control and neglect later that the magical life of a romantic relationship wasn't meant for me. I didn't question its existence, I knew love and romance existed it just clearly wasn't for me. I wasn't deserving of it I suppose. Maybe I held out for what I thought love was for too long. I didn't start seeing my now ex husband until I was 17 and there were none before him. I had this idea ...

"Pinup Style Brand Review with Emily Doll featuring Atomic Lucite"  As a huge fan and collector of Lucite Jewelry I was super excited to discover the  Lucite jewelry reproduction brand "Atomic Lucite"  I was recently given the chance to review some of their staple pieces and boy oh boy was I in confetti Lucite heaven!!  Atomic Lucite consists of two amazing women based out of Chicago. Angela and Melanie are the masters behind this whole fabulous array of glitter and atomic goodness! Atomic Lucite has been around since 2015 but they are already well ahead in turn out of their designs and products.  As I started out in my journey through the Lucite heaven I noticed the immediate attention to atomic detail. The really do put the ATOMIC in Atomic Lucite. Rockets, Starbursts, Boomerangs, they capture so many designs from the mid century era. Then you have Tikis, Flamingos, tiny air stream trailers and lots of other fun designs that will grab yo...
