Trashy Diva

Part 2 of the Atlanta Journey… (missed part 1? read it here.) DAY 3 &4: C’om in my mouth following the Taste of Marietta. Yes, you heard correctly. First, my mom and I loaded up the kids and went to Historic Marietta Square for the annual Taste of Marietta. Then we went past the southern icon Big Chicken to [...]

What to do in the ATL? As many of you know, I am from the Atlanta suburbs, and go back to visit several times a year. All my trips are usually a rushed mix of family and business, but I thought I’d share a few extra fun things that JR and I did (and you [...]

When I was home last, my dear brother, Mareko, and I went to a Repeal Day Celebration in Olympia, Washington. For those who are not familiar with Repeal Day, it was a glorious day dating back to the 1930′s — December 5th, 1933 to be exact — when Prohibition was finally repealed after a dreadful [...]

We love it when our fans send us their favorite photos of themselves wearing Trashy Diva! Here is Romance and Young Adult author Lisa Cach wearing the Trixie Sarong Dress in Turquoise Birds aboard the MV Explorer on a voyage up the Amazon River. You can read more about Lisa’s travels here on her blog.

Back in November my husband was able to get a two week vacation from his year-long deployment. Rather than sit in cold and dreary Germany, we decided to make the most of the time off and take one of those weeks to really relax and pamper ourselves. So off we flew to the Canary Islands, [...]

As one of my motto’s states, ‘idle hands are a waste of hands’, I try daily to give flight to the phrase ‘carpe diem’ (seize the day!) — which depending on when I wake up, may turn into ‘carpe noctem’ (seize the night!). But only as of recently in my life have I discovered that [...]

One thing is for sure: Germans take the Christmas season VERY seriously. There are some traditions unique to this time of year that to not partake in them is almost unheard of. The first is going to Christmas Markets (Christkindlmarkt), which are absolutely phenomenal street markets loaded with vendor after vendor of unique, handmade gifts [...]

Fact: it is impossible to live in Germany and not attend an Oktoberfest celebration. While they happen all over Deutschland, the most well-known and oldest of all these festivals (and the one most of the world identifies as THE Oktoberfest) happens in Munich. For the fest’s first weekend, a few friends and I donned our [...]

We really did save the best city for our last stop on our tour of Eastern Europe. Prague is a place that if you ever take a trip to Europe, it is essential that you put it on your “must see” list. Within moments of arriving at their art nouveau train station, I knew this [...]

I recently went to Atlanta for Dragon*Con. I certainly wasn’t expecting to see much Trashy Diva at this sci-fi pop culture convention, so imagine my surprise when out of the corner of my eye I spotted one of the Warm Watercolor dresses! This TD fan used her dress for a costume inspired by the Doctor [...]
