12.27.09

today was a nice relaxed sunday. i ran errands, had family over, then baked brownies.

i'm wearing the boots i got yesterday. its safe to say i love them already.


thrifted volcom dress - f21 tights - thrifted "poppies" boots





i'm not sure whats up with all the glare spots in the pictures. my dog probably touched my cameras lens with his nose. i guess i should clean it..

so why cant you seeeeee

let me just say that i hate taylor swift.. and the only reason is because whenever i hear one of her songs on the radio it gets stuck in my head for about a week. ANYWAY.. today was a lazy jeans/sweatshirt/uggs day, but i DID get a chance to go thrifting for the first time in a while. i couldn't get decent pictures but i just wanted to take some time to show off a pair of boots i found.

when i'm at the thrift stores i like to look through the shoe racks multiple times.. i want to make sure i've seen e v e r y t h i n g.. twice. i found these boots my third time around tonight.. it pays to be persistant!

because of that, i seem to have a good eye for finding vintage leather footwear.. and its perfect, because i loooove vintage shoes.

and then you see, when ever i find something vintage i have to hop on the computer as soon as i get home to research the brand. i guess you could say it makes me feel better about my finds..


i paid $10 for them


since i suck with words i'll direct you to this website that had the same pair of boots for sale. they have much better pictures than mine.. and omggg look at their prices! i guess i got a pretty good deal!

wetseal shirt - $7
wetseal skirt - $12
thrifted red tights
mom's black tights
thrifted wanderlust boots


i've been really boring with my choice of footwear lately. its been cold & icy here in new york.. not the type of weather for wearing heels.




I want to be rich and I want lots of money
I don't care about clever I don't care about funny
I want loads of clothes and fuckloads of diamonds
I heard people die while they are trying to find them

Saturday, December 12, 2009

and i'm waiting for the sun to come and melt this snow

sry2say pretty much my entire outfit is from wetseal. my badddd. the boots are thrifted though..

its freezing here in new york and i'm ready for spring. that is all.
as much as i like layering i'm over this weather. its 20 degrees outside right now. TWENTY DEGREES. ugh ugh do not want.

Friday, December 11, 2009

tell me something about a lonely night

today was a pretty uneventful sunday. i baked some peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. then i put some studs on a pair of heels. they were too plain so i spiced them up a bit.



i just starting stabbing holes through them with no plan. i'm pleased with the result. i think i'll be wearing them a lot more now. anyway, moving on.. here's my outfit for today. comfy, warm, & cheap. perfect.





vintage sweater - thrifted for $4
cut-off shorts
black tights
qupid shoes - thrifted for $6


and this is what meister wore today. it seems that he isn't a fan of snow.. who can blame him though? this is his first winter in the northeast. he has no idea what he's in for.
i got his jacket at walmart last year for $10. isn't it ridiculous i spend more money on my dogs clothes than my own?



yesterday i went thrifting and found this great faux fur vest. it doesn't look so yellow in real life.. it was $8.

Saturday, December 5, 2009

on a balcony overlooking nothing with snow falling all around

its been snowing all day here in the northeast. it was the perfect day to spend thrifting and taking pictures.



white tunic - joyce leslie, $8
cardigan - banana republic, thrifted for $4
skirt - vintage, thrifted for $4
boots - wanderlust, thrifted for $7
owl necklace - ebay, around $12 or so


you may recognize the skirt from a few days ago. i cut about 6 inches off the bottom. now i have an awesome skirt and a matching scarf.. which will never be worn at the same time.

i really wanted to wear a fedora today but i forgot it at home. maybe tomorrow.

funny thing about those boots... these boots were one of my earliest thrift finds.. i found them a couple years ago at the local salvation army for $7. when i moved back to new york from nevada i lost them. a couple days ago (6 months later) i found them in a box, still packed up from the move! we were reunited and i fell in love with them all over again..
