The perks of blogging(at least for me) is getting to know other bloggers who love what I love! Every now then you get to meet some rad Mamas too. One of my "Blogger Mommies" I love is Hal from Halcoholic. She shows that you can still be fashionable and achieve your dreams after spitting out a kid.


Can't you see us pushing stroller together??  Lol!

Thanks Mama for the awesome tees!! My son and his colleagues thought the artwork was FRIGGIN RAD!!

Is VINTAGE just a trend?


A lot of people wear vintage but do they actually know what they're wearing? It's a trend I've seen come and go but do you know the actual back story??
Emma over at ASOS Marketplace decided to school my readers on what vintage is all about...

SLIP IT OUT


vintage lace customized slip dresses, AA sheer sweater cape courtesy of American Apparel, vintage crochet bag with customized fringe, Spanish Moss Gee Wa Wa boots, crochet DIY turban, Mad Lady silver tribal cuffs, vintage cross necklaces, oversized turquoise cross necklace, vintage bangles and random rings

  Just like any other vintage collector I'm pretty sure they own a million slip dresses or just old lingerie in general. It's definitely my go to items when I'm feel like dressing "simple". But lately I've been obsessing over them and when that happens I'm bound to make shit!
When I wear slip dresses I like to rock at least 2-3 at a time but it take FOREVER to find the the perfect lengths that match. You know one long, one short or different colors that peek out in the right places?? That shit can drive you crazy or at least me! 
So I decided to just start morphing and sewing them bitches together! First I draped the the outer slip for a nice slouchy bubble effect and then sewn it to the white slip so that the lace peeked out perfectly on top. Now I have a slip dress that I can wear in public without getting the side eyes from old ladies. And if you really don't wanna look like a hooker who just got outta bed, just add a shitload of jewelry, accessories and DUH...cute shoes!!

Are you obsessed?

I'm a little busy and a lotta behind but I am getting around to emails and interviews, promise! I've just haven't had time for shit. So I'm working on it. Just know I'm happy to have you here and even if I haven't gotten around to your emails I'm at least thinking about you! LOVE YOU ALLLLLLL!!
