Just recently I was visiting Berry when I walked past a quaint little boutique store featuring, believe it or not, a ‘selfie chair’. I’m the kind of gal who will take a selfie whenever the moment presents itself(ie), and even when it doesn’t – so a SELFIE CHAIR?! I was sold. Upon reflection, I realised … More #feministselfies
