We strive to inspire confidence, competence, and authenticity through fashion. Our goal is to ensure that everyone, regardless of their accessibility needs, can enjoy this empowering experience.

Why accessibility matters

Digital accessibility isn’t just a checkbox—it’s a fundamental right. Millions of people worldwide rely on assistive technologies to access websites. By making our online presence accessible, we create a more equitable experience for all users.

Our switch to Gravity Forms

Our recent transition to Gravity Forms was a strategic move toward better accessibility. Here’s how it has strengthened our commitment:

As part of our ongoing commitment to accessibility on Global Accessibility Awareness Day, we’re thrilled to share our progress and celebrate the positive impact it has on our world wide web.

Building My Childhood Home In Sims 4

This “virtual tour” filled me with 90s nostalgia and took me on a trip down memory lane! I’ve always enjoyed designing homes in The Sims. Recently, while describing my childhood home, I realized I could recreate it in The Sims.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have any clear-cased electronics or plastic furniture to add in, but those would have been great additions too!

This edition was lovingly written, not just because of Valentine’s Day and our exciting Galentine’s Scents & Style Workshop last week, but also because February 13th marked my third anniversary of fully embracing the entrepreneurial life.

Join me as I recap what I love most about working with my clients! Spoiler alert: it all comes down to connection and helping people.

Barbie Super Sports Gameplay

I’m returning for another Barbie gameplay session, but with a game I didn’t own growing up, Barbie Super Sports!

Dungeons and Dragons character creation for Ron Virago

We all remember our very first Dungeons and Dragons character fondly – no matter if we played them well or not! In this video, I recreate my swashbuckler rogue using the Sims 4 character creation mode!

🤦 Note: I fully own my rookie mistake of not backing up my game saves and losing some of my creations because of it – not my proudest moment…

It’s fine, but is it really?

Apparently, I have a habit of saying “it’s fine”, even when it’s clearly not…like when your entire Sims 4 game gets wiped during an update including the custom D&D characters you’d been working on.

The Sims 4 Dungeons and Dragons character creation for Althea

🪄 Bringing one of my D&D characters to life by using the Sims 4 and character creation mode! If only I had remembered I had the Sims Realm of Magic expansion pack BEFORE creating the entire look…

What can I say, wizards can be a little extra! – or at least in my Dungeons and Dragons campaigns they have been!

The Sims 4: designing a house

I’ve created myself in the Sims 4, but now I need a place for my sim to live! Time to start designing, decorating, and replacing those flammable objects… 🔥

The Sims 4: Creating myself

Is there a better way to start your character creation adventure in the Sims than by creating yourself? I think not!

Unless you’re a recovering perfectionist trying to make your sim as realistic as possible…then it may take you a while… also known as… this took me a while.

But did you know the same idea can be applied to your wardrobe? In this video, I’ll review 3 steps to help you “meal prep your closet” and ways to start preparing your outfits for the week ahead!

Welcome to Vostra Moda

So I did a thing. Welcome to Vostra Moda on YouTube!

Expect all things nerdy and geeky with a healthy dose of style and fashion fun — I’m so excited to see what our community can bring to this corner of the internet.

Q: What does pride month mean to you?

A: Celebrating of queer joy and how far we have come. Also, a time to speak up and continue fighting for the queer community! A time to really learn about queer history. A time to be in queer community and celebrate a little bit extra.

Q: What does confidence mean to you?

A: Feeling secure within yourself and your body. Insecurities root from something that has happened. When we can become secure, we become confident.

Q: Where can our supporters find you?

• Instagram and TikTok: @everywhereisqueer
• Everywhere is Queer website
• Everywhere is Queer map

Q: What is the biggest lesson you have learned about yourself since starting your business?

A: There are A LOT of moving parts when starting a business. Figure out the best way to stay organized that works for you. I am still trying to figure this out for myself honestly.

Q: What is your favorite part about working with/supporting your clients/audience?

A: Hearing the testimonies from folks that have used my map/page. I recently received a message from someone that said their partner and themselves are planning a cross-country road trip that they would have never done before until they found the EIQ map.

Q: If you could go back in time and give yourself any advice during the first year of business, what would it be?

A: Continue to ask questions to people that can help you. As well, be easy on yourself. It’s exhausting! Also don’t forget why you are doing this. ❤️

When did you create your business, and what inspired you to start?

A: January 2nd, 2022. After attending Brave Trails (a queer youth leadership camp), I wanted to create that euphoric experience that you feel at Brave Trails.

That feeling where you can be your full authentic self. As people look locally or travel the world, I wanted to create something that would allow them to be their full authentic selves.

I hope that the queer-owned businesses on our map will provide a safer space for folks. I also think about the queer youth and when I was in high school. I wish I knew of a queer-owned coffee shop that I could sit at (out or not) and see queer people exist and work.

Q: What is your business/service?

A: Everywhere Is Queer is a worldwide map of queer-owned businesses. We use our platforms to highlight and uplift the voices of queer-owned businesses!

Q: What is your favorite activity when you aren’t working?

A: Table tennis, paddle boarding, biking, and eating food with good people

Q: What is a personal favorite quote?

“When they go low, we go high”

— Michelle Obama

I’m excited to not only be sharing a fantastic resource but one that I’ve been going on about since I first discovered them last year! I’ve shared about them a few times, but can’t wait to dive a little deeper into “Everywhere Is Queer” with founder, Charlie Sprinkman (he/they)!
