SPIDERWEB

(everything thrifted from head to toe)
DIY crochet spiderweb dress, vintage leopard velvet dress, Zara Yeti coat, vintage Smokey the Bear hat, vintage DIY platform boots, vintage oversized cross necklace and B.E. rings
So the weather here for the past few days have been outright STUPID!! It was supposed to snow this weekend but just ended up icing over the streets and then 65 degrees the next day. I was sooooo pissed cause I fell down my lovely iced up stairs just when the sun began to peek out and warm up! (Thank Satan I didn't ruin my fur!!) That's Houston for you...if the news say it's going to snow, do the opposite and wear a frickin' bikini, hahaha!
Anywho, the crochet spiderweb dress I'm rockin' was a totally accident. I washed it and it just started coming apart in the dryer, so I just went with it and shredded it to the crochet part. Too bad you can't see the AWESOME leopard velvet dress underneath, booooooooo! I LOVE THIS DRESS but not cause it leopard but I like how it rides up my thighs!! I don't have a lot of curves so I'll take what I can get, lol! I'll try and wear it again so you can see what I'm talking about.
Well I'm off to work, boooooooooo! I seriously need to workout my schedule with my manager. These muthaf***a got me working 7 days straight and I'm supposed to be part-time! Uh I don't think so! My first job is being a Mom. I feel like I only get to see my son when I volunteer at his school cause he's always passed out when I get off. So I may have to go back to selling on eBay just to get that Mommy and me time. Idk??
Thanks for the love,
Virgin

HOMEBODY

vintage ribcage knit sweater, Urban 1972 crochet knit shorties, vintage southwestern belt, vintage Smokey the bear hat, DIY leopard F21 platform booties, leopard faux fur Zara bag, vintage bangles and B.E. rings
So my OBSESSION for crochet has leaked over into Spring. Pretty much anything with a scallop trim is a go for me! Crochet shorts are a little hard to pull off, they could easily look like a bathsuit cover, yikes!! So I paired my shorties up with a close relative...a loose knit sweater. You can't go wrong with neutrals and knits, right??
For some reason I feel you can never have too much leopard print. I've been wearing it in bulk. Shoes, hat, bag...I gotta have at least 2 pieces at a time! Found the perfect velvet leopard dress the other day. I keep forgetting to take it in to fit Mama but I buy so much crap I forget about the other crap I bought the week before! I would make the cutest episode of Hoarders cause we could have a FASHION SHOW!! Whooooooooo, fuck yeah!!
The beginning of the the week has kicked off and I already feel like I'm 10 days behind! Ephraim's been sick so I have been waiting on him hand and foot to make sure he gets well. That's my baby, geez I hope I don't make him a Mama's boy I HATE Mama's boys!! Sooooooo needy and rely on their mom for everything, HATE 'EM!
Thanks for keeping me going,
Virgin
