Wanted to share my new sweater that is now my favorite piece of clothing I own!

I got this amazing sweater from 22ndOfOctober on Etsy and I am IN LOVE WITH IT!!! My two favorite things in one! There’s never merch that I feel specifically fits my aesthetic or special interests so this was a MUST HAVE!!

Here’s a link to their shop for any of you wanting to check them out or get this yourselves!! https://www.etsy.com/shop/22ndOfOctober

I know I'm going to regret being this honest but:

It's probably because my first childhood crush was on Rami Malek as Ahkmenrah in 'Night at the Museum' (2006)

LET ME EXPLAIN: 1. I WAS EIGHT. 2. I grew up in NYC and so it was super cool to "see" the museum I went to all the time on school trips on the big screen. 3. Interestingly enough: before this I was actually TERRIFIED of mummies-I would literally bolt out any room if I saw any type of sarcophagus or body of any type. 4. While eight year old me did find Rami quite beautiful what I found even more fascinating was his costume and the set design of his exhibit!

5. I remember shortly after seeing the film going to the Metropolitan Museum of Art also in NYC and seeing the Temple of Dendur a Hellenistic temple located there!

As of right now I'm studying general history with no main focus but I personally have interest and knowledge in:

Ancient World: * Ancient Rome * Ancient Greece * Ancient Egypt Medieval History: *European History {British Monarchy, Women's History, Daily Life}

Modern History: *Fashion History *Women in Military {WWI & WWII} *History of Hollywood
