For those of you wanting to read something a little spicy….or a little romantic….take a few moments to check out Pink Nighties.
What will you find there? First of all, it’s really pretty to look at. Lorissa handled the design and development, and ATG’s Rebbecca Wachtel provided the cover art. But looks aren’t […]
I’ve touched on the topic of women not being “seen” on the web before and now I am chuffed to see that The Next Web blog is taking up the challenge of finding 100 female tech and web heroes. If you know of someone who would fit this bill perfectly, leave a comment on their […]
Ladies they did all the hard work. Your man searched high and low for that perfect gift in the weeks running up to Valentine’s Day. They planned the perfect night out or in, brought in good wine and flowers and treated you like the princess you know you are. Well now men have a special […]
It began on March 8, 1908 in New York City. 15,000 women took to the streets and marched to ask for better pay and shorter hours. And for the right to cast their vote. In 1911, Clara Zetkin, leader of the Women’s Office for Social Democratic Party in Germany launched the first […]
If you have read my columns here at All Things Girl, you know that I have been focusing 2008 on Passion, Courage and Forgiveness.
I want more from my life than just going to work and coming home. I want things that feed my intellect…speak to my creative soul….and challenge my gypsy leanings. All […]
No doubt you were inspired by our own Deb Smouse’s article last issue about creating an inspiration board. Well, I was delighted to come across this new e-zine which focuses on just that and is aptly named - Inspiration. This is a new monthly e-zine from Design For Mankind and definitely worth checking out. Download […]
If you are in the US it’s a huge voting day. Don’t forget to get out there and cast your vote, and of course, take a photo so you can join the Polling Place Photo Project. And, on the same topic, I found this site incredibly interesting - Electoral Compass USA. The candidate closest to […]

For quite some time, I’ve had this secret obsession–iHanna. This girl is uber-cool. She crafts and crafts and crafts… and creates some of the coolest things ever. My favorite items I’ve come across lately from Hanna Anderson?
I adore this jean purse. If I wore a smaller size, I’d try and make […]
… Tuesdai Noelle!
Born in Tacoma, Washington, Tuesdai began her crafting 3 years ago with a pair of white jeans. Turning them into a work of art, Tuesdai decorated them with “dirty handprints and lips.” After that, the pieces came rolling out… including denim skirts and jeans.
For information on ordering and more on Tuesdai, […]
As the second day of 2008 ticks away, I keep asking myself, “Self… what do you want to do with the New Year?” Resolutions are so last year. So, instead of making some lame promise I won’t keep (ie: stop eating chocolate or swearing like a sailor), I decided to just make a […]
Of the more than thirty-three million people in the world that are living with HIV, almost half of them are women - compared with forty-one percent in 1997. In many places of the world, the rates of infection in women is increasing much faster than men. In some cultures, young women […]
I wonder how many women know that November 25th was the ‘International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women,’ a day that was recognised by the General assembly of the United Nations in 1999, with a view to raising public awareness of the violation of the rights against women. I had […]

For the next 16 days, starting tomorrow on Sunday Nov 25th, Ann will blog […]
Me. That’s who. Or at least I was before yesterday at exactly 3:05PM. That’s when I experienced one for the first time. That is the moment I realized I’d been a complete moron for not having gotten one sooner.
I’ve heard so many rumors about how painful Mammograms were. “They put you in this machine and […]
No, this is not an ode to Mork & Mindy - though I do love the insanely talented Robin Williams. Rather, a glimpse into the writers - published, yet-to-be-published, and closet writers - that willingly sign on for 30 days of insanity, also known as National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo.
I first heard of this […]
