What sparked your love for fashion?

Growing up on a fiber farm, textiles have always been a natural medium for me. As a teenager, I wanted to wear the most fabulous clothes, so I began making them myself. With my mom’s help, I put together all of my formal dance dresses, made most of my every day clothes, and even did 2 runway shows in the HS talent show. I have costumed many people since, designed logos for band shirts and fliers, and made many circus freaks’ stage costumes. Born Ugli fashion is an attempt to pull beauty out of overlooked places and dress in an “out of the ordinary” manner. My friend once told me to “be worth looking at”, so when planning costumes, I want them to look like royalty…keeping in mind that the circus … Read more!

Pretty up your Princess Leia buns; we’ve got an uhmazing space themed morning coming your way. #wecomeinpeace✌👽

Did you know that 1 in 4 Americans report having zero friends to confide in? It’s a scary stat, BUT what if we used this as rocketfuel for a collective mission to better embrace every being in the milky way?

On Wednesday, March 28th, spacesuit up and let’s fly away to better places. We’re on a mission to recolonize space with more love, more belonging and more DANCE. It all begins on the dancefloor at Temple (after all, change starts where you’re standing). We’ll have a pre-party option of yoga with Yoga Pod Cherry Creek OR fitness with The willPower Method (ooo decisions, decisions), then we’ll dance until we fill up the room with a level of love that’s lightyears ahead of the norm.

See you on the dancefloor. 💃

THE LINEUP
+ Yoga & Fitness 6 – 7am
+ Dance Party 7 – 9am
+ Yoga with Yoga Pod Denver – Cherry Creek… Read more!

Justin Great Season 2 Release

January 20, 2018 – Is it good? Well it’s never good enough for Justin Great. The energy was sky high on Friday night as people flooded into the Justin Great Season 2 Launch Party. Hosted at Urban Mix in Denver, the party was bound to come alive with food, drinks, music, dancing, and fashion.

New to the Denver scene but not a rookie when it comes to the fashion scene, Justin wanted to leave his mark with his newest line. The main style idea his clothing reflects is streetwear. I was initially intrigued by this because I’m quite invested in the streetwear culture myself. Not only this, but streetwear isn’t as prominent in Denver as it is in New York or LA – places Justin has worked before. The unique ideas surrounding streetwear create shifts in culture and allow people to be creative and open when it comes to expressing their style. Streetwear normally aims at both comfort and individuality – an appealing combination to many people interested in the realm of fashion. It is continually evolving and new concepts are introduced regularly to allow a diverse style to come to life.

Overall, my favorite concept from his work is … Read more!
