Hippie Chick: Bohemian Style Glam
Back then, I was fat. I had only wispy patches of hair on my head. And I had no teeth. The year was 1969 and I was a drooling, bald one-year-old. But I’ve always been a hippie at heart. And with the past weekend marking the fortieth anniversary of the Woodstock Music Festival, I can’t […]
