Light as a feather, stiff as a board.

(everything thrifted from head to toe except etsy dress)

vintage crushed velvet overcoat made from an old dress, Reluctant Vintage crochet dress, DIY leopard platform maryjanes, vintage cross necklaces, DIY floral headband, Bueno Bueno feather tails and vintage bangles

These are just rest of the pics from the Blogday post!

So when I made this dress into an overcoat it gave me a creepy dungeon vibe! That's why I'm all Witch Craft on your ass! I'm slowly falling in love with velvet but it's kinda hard when Ephraim keeps calling me out saying, "Mom why are your clothes wet?" and then run up to me to see if they're really wet!! It's like stuck in the back of my mind every time I wear crushed velvet :( I did find the perfect velvet leggings though just BRIGHT RED and that just makes you think of Xmas so I think I'm going to dye then black or wine, hmmmmm, idk??

Anywho, I think in the next week or so VV will be back on track! I finally got my work schedule meshing with my blog schedule, THANK SATAN!! I really missed taking pictures everyday!! It was kinda my workout. If you take your own pictures with a tripod you know what I'm talking about? Up down back and forth and you only got 10 secs to execute what you want times a thousand pics later, hahaha! It's like an hour of cardio. And I know I can get a remote but I hate when I can blatantly see it in your hand every shot. So I stick to what I know, push the button and RUUUUN!

Soooooo THANK YOU everyone for all the love! I have the best readers on the PLANET!!!

Kisses,

SOUTHWESTERN OF NOWHERE

vintage southwestern aztec fringe cape coat, F21 leatherette skinnies, Zara slouchy hippie blouse, vintage southwestern floppy hat, Bueno Bueno feather tail, B.E. rings/necklace, vintage DIY studded stacked platforms, vintage patchwork backpack purse and vintage bangles

Love my coat?? Well it almost wasn't a happy ending. A lot of the thrift stores I go to have stupid strict policies where if it doesn't have a price, they either take it from you or you have to go get it priced in the back! If you don't speak the lingo(Spanish) then they'll just ignore you and lie and say they're on break! It like a little thrift store mafia! Well little did they know I taught myself this one sentence, "hola, ¿puede el precio por mí por favor?" Yeah works every time, lol! The best part is they priced it at $2.50!!! WHAAAAT,I hugged the old lady!! It was a good day indeed! My leatherettes have found their soulmate! 

Soooooo my new job is kicking my ass!! I must have been one lazy bastard cause I really miss my 11 o'clock nap, boooooooooo! I honestly think it's cause I ride my bike more now. School, work, home, gym, etc... Plus, I'm ADDICTED to this Zumba fitness dance game!! I can't stop...it's like being in the club without really being there. These dance moves are CRA CRA, like it takes me back to cheerleading! I forgot how much you work your body dancing, DANG!

I'll make though cause it's my nature to try to the best at everything. Not in a cocky way! No way, I'm just not scared to jump into something new. 

Well I need to finish dinner. The boys are yelling at me saying they're hungry! Love you and happy to have you all!

TALK TO THE HAND

(everything thrifted from head to toe except DIY booties)

vintage rust bubble slvs mini dress, vintage crochet floral smock vest, DIY vintage drawstring southwestern bag, vintage headband with Bueno Bueno feather tail, DIY leopard laceup F21 booties, vintage hand of Fatima necklace, vintage bangles and B.E. rings

Hey girl hay! Now this dress goes to show that a little puff in the sleeve ain't never hurt nobody, hahaha! This outfit is totally me...dress and a vest. I've must have done this combo a thousand times, it never gets old. I guess I got the gypsy hipster look down, lol!

Anywho, I LOOOOOVE taking pics at the studio, SOMETIMES, cause it's easier for me to do it over and over until I get the shot I love. Plus it freezing like a devil in heaven right now!! (30 degrees WTF Texas!!) When I'm outside you have the crazy cat lady, construction workers, runners, etc...EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE! And do they care if you're busy? GOD NO, they just talk to you like you're old friends or like you have all the f**king time in the world to be OUTSIDE TAKING PICTURES, AAAAAHHHHHH!! Whew, breathe, breathe! I just get sooooo pissed! I'm on a time schedule, DAMNIT!

So it was nice to have a little peace and quiet, plus good shots!

Before I go I want to say WELCOME WELCOME to all the newbies who recently joined VV! You guys are coming out the woodworks and I love it!! Word of mouth is a mutha even if you're the underdog of the blog world. So keep spreading the love around! 

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to everyone!

Kisses,
