Thursday Threads - Her Universe Halloween

Halloween is only a few weeks away!

Do you know what you're going to be yet?

If not, Her Universe has just the Halloween Collection for you!

Which bad-ass Super-heroine do you want to be? 

Or are you more of a Disney Girl?

I am in love with this Minnie dress! I want it for everyday wear!

Even since I saw The Little Mermaid in theaters when I was a kid, I have always wanted her pink dress. Now I can own it! And I realize that it's meant for Halloween, but how cute would this be at a fancy dinner party?

If Studio Ghibli is your bread and butter, check out these sweet outfits

This Princess Mononoke outfit is part of a totally different collection, but I think it fit's here perfectly, don't you?

So what are you going to be for Halloween, other than totally awesome, of course

Ghostbusters - Why Representation Matters

So many people complained and tried to boycott the new all-female cast of Ghostbusters, but thank god it it was made!

Looking at pop culture and children, we usually see boys being dressed up as their favorite movie characters, especially when it comes to Ghostbusters.

Well, not any more. Here is why representation both in gender and skin colour is so important.

We as girls and girls of colour can finally see ourselves as whatever we want to be and this Halloween really proved that point.

Yes, that's 28 little girls dressed up as Ghostbusters. Be still my swelling heart. It brings me to tears knowing that this is only a fraction of the girls who went as Ghostbusters this year. I know even I walked out of the movie knowing that I, too, could be a Ghostbuster. It's a damn good feeling. 

So Hollywood, keep making movies like this. Give our girls more strong, fun, crazy role-models for the future generations to aspire to
