One Year of Rogue Fangirls!

Hey Everyone!

    Katie here! Today marks the one year birthday of The Rogue Fangirls! So to celebrate, I'm going to be talking about two of my favorite moments in (mostly) Star Wars over the past year! Before I get started though, I'd like to thank all of you for your support! Whether you've been here since that first podcast last year or you've discovered Rogue Fangirls recently your support is so important and very much appreciated! Without friends and followers, there wouldn't be any Rogue Fangirls, so I very much appreciate all of you who support us!

Star Wars Celebration

Alright, you probably guessed it. The biggest moment for me this year was being given a press pass for Star Wars Celebration Chicago and getting to experience that! It was such a wonderful time! While I don't think I'll be able to come to Celebration Anaheim I hope that Celebration Chicago won't be the last one I attend.

While people who had attended Celebrations in the past may have found SWCC a bit lacking, I thought it was incredible, I had an amazing time, saw so much, and met so many amazing people!

 While I, unfortunately, won't be able to attend Celebration Anaheim at this time hopefully there will be many more Celebrations in my future!

What about some of the announcements from Celebration Chicago? We learned more about the Mandalorian, got a trailer (and a name) for The Rise of Skywalker, there was a Rebels Remembered panel, We were shown a new trailer and some scenes from The Clone Wars, and so, so much more!

There were so many panels that I would have loved to go see but there simply wasn't enough time for everything. In fact, we had spots in the Episode Nine panel Friday morning, but our train was late so we didn't even get to Chicago until the panel was ending, so while I would have loved to be in that room it was still an adventure standing on the edge of the road with my earbuds in trying to hear what was going on over the wind in Chicago.
I still think this massive Loth-Wolf was one of the coolest photo-ops at Celebration!
But even though we missed or were unable to attend several panels I had an absolutely amazing time and I can't wait to attend another Celebration one day!

The last thing about Celebration that I'd like to touch on is the people. I met so many incredible people while I was there. Some people I had talked to before because of the blog, others I had never met or heard of, but I made so, so many new and wonderful friends in just a few days, and I was able to finally meet other friends in person! All around it was just an incredible and experience that I wouldn't trade for anything!

Disney+

Disney+ is going to have a lot of new shows focusing on some of my favorite characters! While I
think some of the title art for the Marvel shows could use a bit of work that won't stop me from being excited about shows like Loki and Falcon and the Winter Soldier there will also be new Star Wars shows including The Mandalorian and a show about Cassian Andor! Not to mention shows like the Clone Wars and Rebels that aren't new but will be on Disney+ perfect for binging once again. I'm so excited for all the new content we'll be getting and the old content that we'll have easier access to!

There are so many things over the past year that have happened or been announced that I don't have time to cover or talk about them all, but, without this blog, I wouldn't have a space to talk about them at all. So once again I'd just like to thank each of you who have supported Rogue Fangirls over the past year, when Cailey and I started it a year ago I never would have imagined that this is where we would be a year later. I've had so many more opportunities then I would have ever imagined having and I've been able to connect with so many incredible people! I can't wait to see what comes with another year of Rogue Fangirls, hopefully, there will be many more opportunities and many new directions and ideas!

Katie's Top Four Her Universe Items

Hey everyone! Katie here! I was thinking about what I could do a post on while I finish up Thrawn: Alliances and the idea of picking a few of my favorite Her Universe items quickly came to mind. Now, they sell hundreds of item so narrowing that down could be hard, so I decided to pick two items I own and two I'd like to own. Her Universe is one of my personal favorite brands because they make such good quality clothing for fangirls (and more recently fanboys) I was super excited when I found out about Her Universe because (like a lot of fangirls) I was sick of buying boys and size XS men's shirts. Her Universe has stylish, feminine, nerdy clothes (and not just shirts) Plus, it was started by Ahsoka Tano herself, Ashley Eckstein!             Now, I could go on and on  about Ashley Eckstein (any of you who know me well know how much she inspires me and how amazing I think she is) but, this post is about clothes, so, here we go... Star Wars Ahsoka Da...
