Little Luvs Spotlight: Krystal Bick @@@@
Krystal Bick has the style of a goddess. When I first came across her blog, This Time tomorrow, I was instantly drawn to her ever changing/flawless style and a feature on her was a must :)
Who is your fave superhero and why?
Quailman, hands down. Belt on forehead, real underwear over the shorts. Genius. I hope he's with Patty Mayonnaise somewhere.
What inspired you to create a blog and what is it that you love most about blogging?Honestly, I have always checked out fashion blogs, be it for inspiration or just a good old fashioned style pick-me-up, but had never considered creating one myself. Somehow, I felt that I had no place doing it. My style wasn't really any different and/or I don't have a lot of designer things. But then I realized, that's the beauty of this melting pot of the fashion community. It sort of feeds off of each other. All kinds. All prices. All body types. All attitudes. I love it. That's why I wanted to be a part of it. It's overwhelming, obnoxious and full of ideas and personalities. I also want to someday work for a fashion/style related magazine and wanted to get my feet wet so to speak in regards to talking shop, fashion wise.
When did you really get into fashion?
Oh, this probably kicked in when I was about 13 or 14 and begged my dad to take me to a mall in California, a much larger mall than the one in our town. Granted, at the time, I was smitten with Abercrombie & Fitch and my tastes since then have drastically changed, but I think I realized then how much fashion is out there. Plus, I've always had way more clothes than necessary. I am, by my very nature, a clothes horse.
Other than fashion, what has the power to effortlessly put a smile on your face?Listening to people laugh, reading something that makes you look at things completely differently, good libraries, pesto, sleeping in really late on Sundays, sleeping in really late on Sundays with my boyfriend, the feeling after a really long run, finding random music mixes from years before and being reminded of things, reading highlighted sections or handwritten notes in books, a bold Chianti...Sorry for the list. I'm done smiling now. Ha.
Where does your inspiration come from? (movies, people, nature, art ect.)
People. Definitely people. And yes, movies and celebrities and artists keep a keen watch on the very pulse of styles, but sometimes I'd much rather see how the woman in the car next to me put her outfit together this morning. I can relate to her. It's sort of like people watching in a way, I like seeing people and seeing how they're feeling and how they're expressing it that day at a given moment through their clothes. It's such a basic human experience we all share. I mean, after all, we all put our pants on basically the same way, we just do it a little differently.

What is a typical day like in the life of Krystal?
Jet-setting to Paris and having lunch breaks with the Olsen Twins so we can talk about how effortlessly fashionable we are. You know, no biggie. Ah, typical day. I wake up, (often late) throw on an outfit, drink far too much Diet Pepsi, arrive at a law office, zone out for a couple of hours, go home, blog, repeat. That's been my post-graduate life thus far. And I'm ready for a change.

If you were to describe yourself in five words what would they be?Fickle, yet devoted, anxious, dreamer, and firm believer in being genuinely nice to people (more than five, sorry)
When you think of life, what comes to mind?
It's long and short, all at the same time.
