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!!!

EDDIE MUNSTER

vintage 90s chunky lace up boots

Oh go ahead and say it...SAY IT!! I know these shoes are ugly as fuck and I loooooove them! As Ephraim put it "gothic clown shoes", lol! I've always liked ugly chunky boots from the 90s but never had the balls to buy them cause I didn't know if I could make them work with my skinny legs.

Well I found these yesterday while thrifting in my favorite spot. It's always a clusterfuck as soon as you walk through the door, so shoes are hard to find. I actually tripped over these mofos and almost broke my neck which I assumed was destiny or a sign from the Vintage Gods. And for 50 cents...SOLD!

I immediately went home and add studs to the front for that extra edge.

Idk, I frickin' love them!! You?

THRIFT STORE FINDS

I get a lot of questions about what I find thrifting or what I look for. So since I found so much shit thrifting the other day I felt I had to share it with you!! You're going to die when you find out how much I spent on allllllllll this...$12, yep!! WTF, no way, get the fuck outta town but it's true! I have a spot where everything's 50 cents and I always leave with a shitload of trash bags stuffed to the brim with vintage goodies. Or whatever my little VW Golf can carry, hehe!

What's your faves??

IT'S A STITCH

Stitch Union polka dot batwing blouse, thrifted red skinnies, vintage leather motorcycle jacket, vintage B&W stripe clutch, Lulu's triple platform buckle wedges wih customized studs by me, white round sunnies, vintage white bow tie, Mad Lady tribal cuff, vintage bangles and random rings

Maybe I'm just crazy but is anyone else OBSESSED with batwing blouses? Like nowadays I feel weird in a "regular" blouse. The sleeves are too tight or the bottom just don't drape right.
Whoever thought of it first...I fucking LOVE you!! You changed my life and I'm never going back.
Blouses, blouses, blouses! I feel like I didn't say it enough before, lol!
What is the least old ladies at lunch term for blouse, hmmm? (Scratching my head!!)

Thank you Stitch Union for the awesome top to add to my crazy obsession!!

Anywho, I'm feeling a whole lot better, almost back at 100% and no more sicky poo! And I think I'm finally used to Joel leaving for long periods of time for work. Cause yesterday did not phase me! Usually I'm like falling on the floor crying but this time I was cool, calm and collected. WEIRD!! I miss my baby but I guess I know he'll be back from Glasgow on the 14th.

Thanks for all the love and I will be forcing my ass to sit down this weekend and answer emails! Here's the thing about emails...I get like 10 a day and by the time I read them, I have 10 more to read the next day. I'm one of those let me answer back from the heart ass mofos! So they just keep getting backed up to the point where it takes me FOREVER to get back to you. I would apologize but that's life!

ROLLING UP THE GREENERY..

(everything thrifted from head to toe except F21 rings)

vintage quilted double floral romper jumper, vintage white tux blouse, vintage B&W spectator oxfords, vintage "things" tote, vintage crosses, vintage bangles, vintage patent leather circle belt, Christian Dior round sunnies and Forever 21 love and flower ring)

Sometimes I hate taking pics at the park. The WHOLE TIME some bum was taking a bath with the hose used to water the flowers!! Um, GROSS!!! Got this lovely piece/jumper in San Francisco visiting my bf Darine! It was the best find ever other than the face pantsuit and pink and white checker cutout oxfords, I found at Wasteland (favorite store there other than Thrift Town) and DIED, INSTANTLY! I love the petal scallop trim. Also received the bag from Darine. I swear I'm naming my next child Free, Gift or Thrift, jk, jk! Totally kidding :D! Still holding out for my daughter, Axel!

I've got GREAT NEWS. I'm going to be selling clothes really soon through my blog and etsy! So keep ur eyes peeled and ur ears to the street. It's going to be stuff I worn in my blog and vintage you've never seen before! So if you like what I'm wearing in my post, you just might be able to buy it! All you need is Paypal!

laced leather BADASS...

 

  

 

 

  

 

 

  

 

 

  

 

  

(everything thrifted from head to toe)

vintage leather motorcycle jacket, vintage off white sheer lace dress, vintage white tutu slipdress, DIY turban wrap, vintage bangles, blak Nine West lace up booties, vintage cross necklace, vintage pearls and black and white socks

My favorite thrift store had 50% off coupons in the mail so I had to take advantage. Found this leather jacket for $11 but wait it's 50% off. I got if for only $5.50!! I love a good buy, what can I say!! I needed a new leather jacket anyway since all my old ones have fringe on them. I'm so into the leather and lace so I immediately paired it with this angel sleeve lace dress. It was sheer so I added my white tutu slipdress. It makes any dress go POW! Went and did some shots in my creepy backyard behind my studio! Enjoy!

Gotta give thanks to my new blog friends. I love all your comments and I'm working on answering a few questions too! Check back soon cause you don't wanna miss out now that the sun's out again!
