Happy International Women’s Day to the fictional and to the very real women who inspire us! The creators, the makers, the cosplayers, the fan girls, the artist and the difference makers!  To all those listed below and to the many others out there, you inspire us and we celebrate you!

On #InternationalWomensDay, we salute Jodie Whittaker, the first woman to play the Doctor in #DoctorWho's 54-year history. Brilliant! pic.twitter.com/ZTa61GI7fa

Can't express how totally mind blowing and delightful it is to have your childhood favorite resemble you!! Thank you @Barbie for this incredible honor, and for celebrating all kinds of women, everywhere. What a great way to inspire the girls of tomorrow! Wonderful. pic.twitter.com/bUptVP9Car

I’m so lucky that my amazing Starpuffs post amazing pics in my designs and then let me repost it to share with all of you. 💫 I really couldn’t do this without all of your help in sharing and spreading the word! 💙 Happy #InternationalWomensDay to all my amazing ladies around the world who help support my business and designs! I already work almost exclusively with women-run factories in Los Angeles, and I’m working to show women of all types in my shop. I have so much more to do to really be inclusive and I’m so grateful to all of you for helping me grow and learn and do better. ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 (Also only a little over a dozen Scavenger Sweaters remain in stock! Can’t do a reorder till we sell out!) Repost @kgirlonfire ・・・ 💫 Reach out with your feelings. What do you see…? 💫 Probably my favorite part of The Last Jedi was seeing Rey's growth and delving further into to complexities of The Force. I'm so happy I got to recreate one of my favorite moments with Justin!! He totally nailed it yet again. What an amazing photographer!! ❤️ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ {{ #cosplay #reycosplay #resistancereycosplay #starwarscosplay #thelastjedicosplay #rey #cosplaygirl #starwars #resistancerey #elhofferdesign #nerdjustin #theforceisstronginmyfamily #stillthinkreyisaskywalkerorasolo }}

Today's the day! The official launch of my nerd inspired fashion line, Spirit & Story! (I picked Jan 3, for JRR Tolkien's birthday since I'm totally a hobbit and thought it would be a great tribute to LotR.) "Wayfinder" is the first collection and I have lots of different collections lined up next. 🤗 I'm seriously so excited to start sharing them with you all soon! . Thank you to everyone who already ordered Wayfinder Scarves, I hope you are enjoying them! I now have more scarves in stock if you’d like to be a wayfinder too! (link in bio) 🌺🌊💖 . #wayfinder #wayfindercollection #moana #nerdfashion #mantaray #manta #moana🌺
