Pain of Love

Nothing hurt. I'm in such a vacant mood since Pat started dating Sam again. I don't understand why he's pretending to love her, when he doesn't have a single feeling for her left. I don't know why that hurts more then the breaking up of us. I suppose it's because he didn't even wait a day to date her again. Trust me, I'm not a person that repetitively bitches about things.

I'm waiting for that moment in my life, where everything is beautiful, and nothing hurts.

Cori Shea interview. 5/5

Tell me a bit about yourself:

Bout meee~? WELLY~WELLS I’m CoriSheaRobinson~! C: I've picked up ze nickyname P♥i♥n♥k♥i♥e P♥i♥e, P♥i♥n♥k♥i♥e, M♥i♥s♥s♥ P♥i♥n♥k♥i♥e P♥i♥e, and lottys more heehee. I'm deffies sure it prolly has something to do wiff my obsession over her. ;D Recently ♛Queensie♛ ♥Pinkie♥ ♥Pie♥ has seemed to catchy on~! I was nevies a bigBIGbig fan of ze whole "King" ♥&♥ "Queen" of this and that dealie~O, but it's C♥♥TSIE if you don't take it ridiculously seriouslaaay, so I'm runnin wiffit~! (PLUS it's cutie cause muh ♥~*BEE♥BEE*~♥ is muh ♚Kingsie♥Pie♚ HEEHEE) P; I'm a p♥sitively P♥I♥N♥K loving girly~girl, and I totally la~la~l♥veums jussabout anything that sparkles, shimmahs, and has OODLES ~*~&~*~ KABOODAHS of glittah~! I'm a C♥SM♥ student, and am almost awll finished up with my ♥1st♥ yearsie.

What made you pick Pinkie Pie out of all the My Little Ponies?

WELLSIESSS~~~ I remember traveling ze aisles of Toys ♥R♥ Us as a wittah kiddie P♥i♥e (heehee that place is STILL ~*~mAgiCal~*~) and it was 2♥♥3~! I'd heard about the new ponies and figured I'd checkie em out. C: I saw ♥Pinkie♥ ♥Pie♥ and decided that even ze p♥nays from the past weren't as cutaylicious as herrr~! Her sparklay hairsies, those liddah partay ball♥♥nsies, her L♥♥♥VE of c♥tt♥n canday (prollies ze most delishy food in existance TEE♥HEE), it was all juss adorrabuh. Even though I found her to be cutesie as EVVIES, I was still in my mayjuh H♥K♥ addiction, so it didn't catch on at that time. Recently Hasbro relased L♥♥♥TSAH new Pinkielicious goodies, and she seems to have become their "spokes p♥ny" tehe. :D Aftah seeing her in ze newwy merch and startin to watch the showwy again, I was like, "She's ME~! :'OOO P♥sitively p♥i♥n♥k, l♥ves to have an amazing time *&* makes a party out of life, is always there for her franie Pies as MUUUCH as she can be and always lends an ear, same favie snackiep♥♥, and M♥RE~M♥RE~M♥RE~!" I have like soSOso much H♥K♥, and it's reallay refreshing to start a new harmless addiction~! C: She's a breath of fresh pink ♥&♥ sparklay air to my pink adoring soul MHM~! ;*

Interview with Starry Eyed Clothing owner.



Who is the woman behind Starry Eyed Clothing?
Starry Eyed is a one women operation, owned and run by me, Miss Taralee. I'm a graphic designer and DIY'er. I create hair bows for my bowtique on Etsy and illustrations for accessories. I'm Kawaii obsessed, sequin loving girlie girl.

What inspires the designs you make?
All of the designs I make are always something I'd love to wear myself. I adore the kawaii style of illustration and bright colors. With each design I produce, I hope to make people smile at the bubbly cuteness.

What is your must have item for the Spring/Summer?
My must have item, well, I'd say I have three of them. Hair bows, sun dresses, and my Viva Glam lipstick in GAGA by MAC

How do you deal with the haters in your life?
You know, I used to let them get the best of me, but I've realized now that is what they want, they want to make me feel bad, or pull some kind of negativity out of me. There will always be haters in my life, no matter what I do. But instead of letting them bother me, I tell myself their opinions don't matter, no one can make me feel badly about myself except for me.

Have you ever wanted to quit Starry Eyed? Ever have a moment where it seemed too much.
It does become too much at times, believe it or not, there is a lot more work that goes into this than I thought there was going to be. But I've never wanted to give up. I have slow spots and I also have really busy moments that make me wish I had a little helper to make things easier, but I love doing this way too much to stop.


What's your advice to boys and girls that want to follow in your footsteps?
Don't hold back, do what you want to, even if it's only a side project. Having people like your work just as much as you like creating it, is the most rewarding feeling.

Describe you in three words. Describe your store in three words.
Wow, that's tough, to describe myself I say:
Shy, fun-loving, and creative.
To describe my shop I 'd say:
Kawaii, bright, happy.

How big do you want your Clothing to get?
I'd love to expand the shop to the point where it could become my full time job. I just love everything that goes with the shop, interacting with customers, meeting other people who do what I do, it would be fabulous to spread the love all over the country.

What are you afraid of?
I'm afraid of losing the ambition and desire to design. Although, I've realized that as long as I give myself a much needed break sometimes. I never feel overwhelmed enough to set it aside for good.

What is your favorite thing in your store right now?

My favourite thing from the shop is the Unicornie Innertube tee.

And my favourite thing from the bowtique is the Pinkie Polkies hair bow.

s-hair-bow





Who was your favorite model that wore one of your designs?
Wow, I've had such awesome models, they've really grown into friends, so I see them more than just models now. But I'll choose Raquel Reed, just because I'm still so excited about the photos I received last week.

Have you ever caught someone stealing a design of yours?
Yes, many times. It's really disappointing that people do things like that, especially when it's people you know.

What do you think about people that think design and owning a store is easy?
I think that they really won't understand the work that goes into it unless they do it themselves. It may seem easy, but it takes a lot of focus and dedication. Self promotion, constant updating, tweaking, designing and making of new items. My illustrations do look simple, but most of them have taken hours to perfect

Hello Kitty or My Little Pony?
Hello Kitty for sure!

Have you ever wanted to collaborate with someone?
It's funny that you should ask that. I just finished collabortating with Rosa Pendleton who owns I'm a Jerk Industries. We released a new line called Monstrously Cute a few days ag, it was fun working with her, we've decided to do it again in the fall.

Nail Art.


I have the up most respect for people that do their nails like this. Especially the Pacman print. They're so Faboosh, with the ghosts. I've seen some utterly amazing one's, that have to do with paintings of Van Gogh. I can barely paint my fingernails right, without having half the paint on my hands. It's been a VERY long time since I've had someone else touch my hands, but for my friend's birthday party she's having a manicurist party. I'm all for it, and I'm going to ask for something super cute. Maybe some pacman on there!
