Jess. What can I say? How could I have walked past this gal without snapping her photograph? Jess is a musical theatre enthusiast and barista at Steve-o-Reno’s. I caught her after she got off what she described as a “bad shift.” Been there. I was intrigued with her style, asked if I could take her photograph for my blog and got to business. Jess is inspired by wearing what makes her feel sexy and wishes more women would do the same. So totally awesome and honest. We all want and long for our clothes to make us feel beautiful/sexy/desirable/confident if not for other people than for ourselves. Her jewels consist of a leather pouch of crystals and a coyote’s jaw that she bought at the Powwow on the Commons earlier this summer.
