Go! Go! Power Rangers!

blog- all power rangers
Sorry! Left my suit at home 🙂

You know you’re a 90’s kid when you come home from school and you turn your tv to watch the latest episode of “The Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers” – I certainly did, and would often time extend my arms out forward with my imaginary power morpher and yell “Saber Tooth Tiger.” Yup I was that kid, but could you blame me? I do sorta look like Trini 🙂

Recently Nucleus, an intimate art gallery and geek shop in Alhambra, hosted a Power Rangers Tribute Exhibition and Comic Launch to showcase the artists work. Patrons who purchased the set of comics at this event had the opportunity to get them signed by the artists. Naturally, I attended and boy did it bring back memories.

Totally diggin’ the glossy covers

Now I knew based on the invitation that we should get there early, but boy the line was out the door and wrapped around the building!

After waiting about an hour or so outside my party of Power Ranger enthusiast gazed upon the various memorabilia and artwork. I snapped a bunch of photos and was really impressed by the authenticity of the guest cosplayers outfits. The helmets alone looked like they could have been used in the actual tv and movies.

The exhibit was pretty small, but with free admission and memories that brought me back to my childhood was certainly well worth it. Can you believe it’s been over 20 years since the original “Mighty Morphin’ Power debuted? Crazy how time flies.

Back to the Basics

2015 was a year of high highs and low lows. Change ran rampant throughout the months and boy was it exhausting. This year I’m hoping to go “back to the basics” and revive things that I’ve longed neglected including this blog – hooray!

Cheap Eats: I’m a huge foodie and I hope to do a better job this year in sharing some of my delicious adventures. I recently moved to LA, so I’m beyond excited on what hidden gems this dynamic city has to offer.

blog 011616 - OOTD

OOTD: Towards the end of 2015 I was better at reinventing myself and expressing my creativity through fashion as it was a therapeutic outlet.  I felt greater confidence and loved the way it made me feel when I dared to explore different apparel combinations even though it doesn’t come naturally to me.  Thrifting cool pieces and finding alternative ways to mix up a favorite garment is a challenge that this frugal fashionista is going to make it work! *snap snap* Tim Gunn would be so proud 🙂

Entertaining Events: I’ll take you along some the different free events as well as exclusive private functions. Many will be local, but I’m also hoping to also travel to find some of the area’s best kept secrets, so stay tuned!
