So I just realised that the "tech princess" link on my website was broken, after I made my instagram disappear.

Anyway, here's the back story: I was going to React Day Berlin in November 2019, and I was so bored of going to tech conferences in jeans and a t-shirt, and wanted to be *hyper* femme, so I bought a huge ballgown and wore that to the conference. I also tried to encourage some other femmes to join me, but didn't have much luck.

It was literally to poke fun at the fact that tech conferences are all jeans and t-shirts or like suits. I wanted to do something different.

Like, the only one that hasn't looked that way was the #techprincess ballgown that I wore to React Day Berlin last year; and maybe the Dirndl I bought for Oktoberfest
