Instarec by Madison L
HRH: So Many Thoughts on Royal Style by Elizabeth Holmes
A great look on how royal fashion has to walk a tight line between flashy but accessible, muted but stand out, conservative but dazzling, etc. It showed that while royal women could rarely use their voices they have gotten savvy in using their wardrobe to convey their thoughts. The pictures were great. All in all if you are a fan of the royal family and/or fashion, it’s a great read!!

Gloria Steinem, the pioneering journalist, author and feminist, has died at 92.

Born in Toledo in 1934, Steinem spent her life challenging inequality, amplifying women’s voices, and inspiring generations to imagine a more equitable world.

Here in her hometown, that work continues through the Steinem Sisters Collection at the Toledo Lucas County Public Library, the country’s only special feminist collection housed within a public library.

More than 900 titles.
Countless stories.
A growing community of people learning, questioning, connecting and finding their voices.

That is a fitting legacy for Gloria Steinem.

Today, Toledo remembers one of its most influential citizens and we recommit ourselves to keeping the conversation she helped begin alive.
