When Michelle called me a few weeks ago to tell me she got us tickets for The DiscOasis I was ecstatic. Like giddy with excitement! Not only had I been watching the entire oasis unfold on Instagram via all my favorite roller skaters, on this particular night, THEY WERE ALL GOING TO BE THERE hosting …

Falling Down is an Accident. Staying Down is a Choice
A few nights ago I fell on my skates. It wasn’t the first time, but it was the hardest fall by far and it SHOOK me to my core. Falling on skates is inevitable, but for some reason it’s never when you’re doing a cool dance move or trick, actually, that’s not entirely true, my …
How To Make Your Roller Skates Fit Better // DIY Faux Fur Lining
As much as I love all of my new skates, there is just something so retro/fun about the white skates that remind me of the ’80s and I could never part with them… and in fact will probably still wear them from time to time, especially with my new wheels and reds bearings, which make …

Hi Lovecats! When I was looking for new skates to buy, I knew what I wanted but still had TONS of questions about how the boots fit and what would be best for my feet (and ankle) for the kind of skating I want to do (pretty basic/mellow and dance/rhythm skating) and what wheels would …

Sitting here in Blue Jay Way
What I’m Wearing… * Blue denim coveralls from Lee Vintage Modern – STILL MY FAVORITES! I size up in these to a medium because I like them to fit a little baggy and also not ride up when I raise my arms (I’m 5’7″). These have shrunk a little in the dryer over the years …
DIY // How To Make A Skate Leash Carrying Strap from a Belt
I’m not sure who originated this idea, but it’s genius (I think it’s similar to a yoga mat carrying strap). Not only is this leash easy to pull on and off of your roller skates, it makes carrying them a breeze. You can wear it over your shoulder or if your leash is short enough, …
There’s Nowhere you Can be That isn’t Where you’re Meant to Be
What I’m Wearing… * English Factory pink tied up sweatshirt… I took the ribbons out because they were too long and annoying for this… although would have looked really cool in the videos I shot – you can see it here… and why I didn’t originally want brightly colored skates because I’m already trying to …
