Mini Penny on Max Journal

I'm really excited to be featured this week on VSCO's Max Journal! Head over to their page to read my interview with them and see more photos!

Tons of New Listings!

Part of returning from hiatus is finally committing to cleaning out my closet. Well, here's the first round: thirty goodies (new, lightly used, and vintage) for your purchasing pleasure. Always free shipping in the US! Scoop 'em up.

That One Time I Took a Summer Hiatus

It's been two months since I've shared anything to Mini Penny Blog. I've spent a good chunk of this summer painting, being outside, meeting new people, and processing a few other issues big and small. I've had this itch for the past couple of weeks to put up some new content, but really have spent such a small amount of money shopping (that's a good thing!) considering that ... I bought a motorcycle on Memorial Day and have been sinking all of my money into getting her ready to ride.

You've Got Nail 65 // Scratch Thunder Wraps

When I received my email to select my wraps last month, I wasn't particularly elated by the choices. I ended up going with Thunder, and ended up being really stoked with the results! Click through to see all three sets I made with these great wraps.

Spring Whites + Cat Footwear

I love wearing white jeans with a vintage denim jacket in the spring. The look is so crisp and refreshing from my usual, especially when accessorized with great ankle boots and a simple hat.

Party in the Back

These pants are killing me. They're so flattering and the cutout on the back is sexy as hell. The rise and crop is reminiscent of some of my favorite Peg-Bundy-esque styles, but with just a little more sass.

You've Got Nail 64 // Scratch Bloom Wraps

Lately, I've been love split manicures — you know, straight lines, different halves, the whole bit. When I got my March Mini Mani Scratch Box in the mail and saw these beautiful florals, I knew I'd be able to complete three lovely spring sets with them! See all of my designs below.

Rompin' Around

Flashback to LA a few weeks ago — Roxy and I had a day off together and spent it jumping around and enjoying the sunshine. Chicago has been so rainy and grey the past couple of days, so looking back on sunny photos has me excited for brighter days. Who doesn't love running around in a comfy romper?

Prints Now Available!

I'm so excited to announce that I am now offering prints of a few of my paintings! Due to so many messages and comments over the years, I decided to make 8x10s available to you. Each print is on 100% cotton Edition Etching Rag with Ultrachrome Archival Inks. The prints are $25 each (shipped!) or you can pick up the memorial bundle (Amy, Prince, and Bowie) for $60 shipped. Head over to the Mini Penny Shop to get yours!

They're going fast and the run is very limited.

The Suede Shift Dress

Wearing this faux suede shift dress around LA was so comfortable and breezy. I love the suede trend, but I always worry about the weight of the fabric in warmer temperatures. This one by Tobi is the perfect middle ground!
