LIME TIME

(everything thrifted from head to toe except shoes)

vintage lime houndstooth United Colors of Benetton 2 piece, old Arden B. cardi, vintage patent leather clock bag, Romwe spiked cuff, Mad Lady chain cuff, DIY spikes/studs leather wrap bracelet, Target socks and random rings

If you don't see me from a mile away in this...yo ass is BLIND! I think even if you're colorblind you could see me, lol! 

I found these neon hotties a few years back thrifting. I remember finding the pants first and being excited just from the frickin' pants alone but as I was standing in line I noticed the same print sticking out a little bit. I did the most daring thing EVER and I got out of line to check. Let me remind you there's AT LEAST 15-20 people behind me and I've been standing in line for 30 minutes!!! So I took a huge fucking risk and found out it was the matching top and also a size small. YEEEEEESSSS, I did the "in yo face dance" and I'm pretty sure everyone was giving me the "you dumb bitch, you just lost your place in line face", hahaha but it was all worth it!

Anywho, I hope you guys had a awesome New Years? My night was a blast and very chill this year. I spent it with my #1 man, Ephraim and we did the countdown together at midnight, followed by Ephraim crying because he couldn't have champagne! So now I know next year to get the boy some sparkling cider, lol! 

Overall I'm so ready to kick off 2012. My resolutions this year are to stay on a positive track in life, continue eating non processed foods and fast food and keep being a great mom to Ephraim. Idk, what's your resolutions for 2012?

Oh yeah and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

XMAS JUST CAME EARLY THIS YEAR

vintage sequin jacket and miniskirt, H&M Nirvana tank, DIY customized leopard platforms, vintage cross necklaces, Beginning Boutique cage ring, DIY leopard turban, leather backpack purse, Romwe spiked cuff, Mad Lady chain cuff, DIY spike leather bracelet and random rings

Haha you know me I'm all about the ass and thighs...so I'm throwing it all up in ya face on this post, lol!!

Anywho, who's excited about Christmas?? Me me me!! I've already opened some of my gifts since I'm one impatient bastard. Sorry but you can't just have boxes with my name on it sitting around for too long, I'm going to wanna open that shit! And I did, hehe.

I got a new tripod, of course since Trip died on me, but there was this one big box, that strike me as odd since I didn't ask for anything big this year. I was squirming and asking the usual, "What's in there?"

Joel finally folded yesterday and gave me this sweet speech about how much he loves me, supports my blogging and just so proud of me in general. I was like, uh huh uh huh and thinking what the fuck is in that box!

I opened it and literally sound like one of those people you see spazzin out on a youTube video, crying about their new iPad or some shit like that! 

OMG he got me a studio lighting kit with all the bells and whistles!! You know the fancy smancy shit you see on a real photoshoot?  (The umbrella lights, softboxes and camera remote.) I've been whining about the weather and how it's too cold for outside shots but also too dark for inside ones. I just can't believe he listened! 

Man dude Joel is really hookin' my ass up this year!! Love ya boo!

Used them for this post, btw...LOVE THEM!! The lighting is insane, my sitting room is completely dark and it lit that bitch up like BAM! It's just so natural looking. Ugh I can't wait to play around with it more. You know what this means?? MORE POST, FUCK YEEEEAAAAAH!

Hope your Xmas is just as fuckin awesome!

It's cold as fuck and absolutely no good lighting to take pictures in the house. So this was my only way of sharing my outfit today. I love the color variations and mix match craziness. It looks a thousand times better in person...trust me! Maybe my next post I'll be actually wearing it!

PLAID IS RAD

vintage plaid cape c/o Cobrasnake, thrifted AA ballet dress, H&M heart garter tights(thanks D), vintage red hat, vintage leather backpack purse, Lulu's triple stacked wedges with customized studs, Beginning Boutique cage ring, Mad Lady chain cuff, DIY spike leather cuff, Romwe spike cuff bracelet, vintage cross necklace/rosary and random rings

The weather has been complete and utter shit lately! Like overcast city followed by rain and a cold front...that last like a couple of hours then back to sunshine town, boooooooooo! So over it.

I may be doing pics inside the house the next couple of days. I'm super scared of getting sick again. 

Anywho I've been uber busy and beginning to understand why you need an agent in this crazy blog world. You get offered opportunities left and right but you have no idea on how to handle the business side of blogging. You don't know if you're getting fucked and signing your life away. Thank Satan I've been staying true to myself and making good decisions on my own but somedays I need help.

Are there any bloggers/readers out there who have an agency? Can you still make all your own decisions? I really don't wanna be someone's bitch or puppet! Let me know.

Don't worry I'm not about to become some douchebag dipped in all designer duds and take you on all my boring adventures to stores I can't really afford and feel uncomfortable in. I'm still going to be me...VV! I just wanna show you that you don't always have to go that route.

Thanks for all the support, I couldn't do it without.

Sorry for the blurry shots...I was freezing my ass off and couldn't stay still. Yeah the weather was cray cray, like it was hot and rainy all morning so I stayed in. I didn't expect it to be 50 degrees after it stopped!!

I walked out in my slutty lace dress and was instantly smacked in the face by Jack Frost. Burrrr bitch!

Thank Satan for the scarf Charlotte&Lisa sent me cause it kept my little skinny neck warm. It's seriously like a blanket you can wear any way and the utility straps are a nice touch too. 

I'm slightly obsessed with it, hehe. So I asked if they could hook up my readers with a coupon and they did...30% off, fuck yeah!

Just go to Charlotte&Lisa.com and when you check out enter CLFW11 in the shop basket under "enter coupon code", click apply and the price goes down 30%! Wow 30% off...I may have to get it in the other color!

PEACE LOVE & VINTAGE

(everything thrifted from head to toe)

vintage sweater poncho cape, vintage customized southwestern tribal crop tee, vintage southwestern Moroccan fringe bag, Target knit socks, vintage customized Frye ankle boots, turquoise cross necklace from Darine, Mad Lady turquoise tribal cuff, elephant head necklace, vintage bangles and random rings

 So I majority of the day I was wearing just the tee, shorts and yada yada yada. Then I decided to go the Guild Shop by my house which is like a mecca for old broads and antiques. I went to see if any of the overly priced crap I've been secretly stalking have been marked down yet, since the prices go down every month. In the corner of my eye I thought I caught a glimpse of an angel in their clothes section! I was like what the? I don't never really look through the clothes there since I rarely find anything cool. 

But low and behold as I'm walking over I see the poncho of MY DREAMS!! Before I even looked at it I checked the price cause the shit there is expensive...only $4.50, mint condition, SOLD!

When I got home the poncho had the WORST FIT EVER, like booooooooo!! It literally ate me alive and made me look kinda homely. So I did what I do best and I cut that mofo right down the center seam and BOOSH a fucking cardi sweater cape that would have cost you a fortune online!

So next time you see a poncho cape that fits you all the wrong way...cut that bitch down the middle for a new look! 

I added it to my original outfit to make one big southwestern clusterfuck but I LOVE IT!!

P.S. And I promise my next post will be about the shoes, mkay!

I'M ON THE CASE...

(everything thrifted from head to toe except shoes)

vintage double breasted mini trench coat, vintage Smokey the Bear hat, vintage Victorian briefcase bag, Target socks, Forever 21 faux suede clogs, vintage bangles/watch, Mad Lady tribal cuff, random rings and vintage belt

You know how I get all warm and tingly inside when I think of trench coats especially vintage trench coats!! So when I found this one I literally exploded all over the thrift store...blood and guts EVERYWHERE, haha! I was over the moon cause it was my size but when I unbuttoned it, the tag said Jessica....SOLD! I was halfway to the register at that point. The fit was soooooo perfect and I didn't even have to rip out the shoulder pads, which is extremely rare in vintage clothes. 

I wore it as a dress since I've been hunting down one online for like ever and it's enough fabric to cover my ass and flaunt my best asset...hello, as if you didn't know, MY LEEEEGS!

Since the coat was fucking awesome I thought the briefcase bag was a given. The details on this bag is BEYOND INSANE, I love that the people are padded so it's kinda 3-D! I don't know if you can see it but in person it's unreal. 

Anywho, love this look, don't you?
