Tons of girls have an Instagram account full of self-portraits, and Annelies van Overbeek is no exception.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

If you're looking for the most artistic skateboards in town, then you just have to head to The Skateroom .

They don't come cheap though. Each skateboard will set you back $350.
