VINTAGE OVERLOAD.

Recently my drama teacher has taken initiative on cleaning out the costume department that has been growing exponentially in the last 30-40 years.
On Saturday I went to help with the clean-up, which consisted of sorting clothes into a pile of clothes to throw away, several piles to give away, clothes to be sold, and clothes that had to be put back.

From this, I acted a garbage collector and took home a truckload of clothes. (yes, I did take from the throw-away pile)

Anyways I now have lots o' lucious vintage. Ariel was also there. She found a box of sequined sailor costumes and wore it the whole time we were there. She looked exactly like Sailor Moon, but with black hair and more like a human being.

I gave 1/3 of it to Gato because I can't break up with most of it. But I'm really happy with everything and even better, it was FREE, that's right crazy dogggz, free!

Leather jacket - UO, Ho down dress - Drama give-away, DIY converse

Square dance Ho-down style CALL TO ACTION. Bringing back some good ol' timey flavor.





Navy jumper - drama give-away, belt - mom's vintage, shoes- vintage Charles Jourdan



Skirt - Drama give-away, shirt - AA, necklace - Fredflare

Psychedellic skirt - lovin' it! It's the perfect length to wear long with heels, or alter up and inch for sandals - or should I shorten it to make a mini? Decisions...







Lace dress - Drama for sale section

I couldn't get any good pictures of it, but this dress is my favorite thing I got. Even though it was on one of the for-sale racks, I got it fo free sucka! Not stealing, just payment for helping organize.





Green dress - drama give-away

Hello lover.





50's Prom dress - Drama give-away



Boxers w/ suspenders - drama Throw-away pile, shirt - AA, shoes - drama throw-away
*thanks thank you thanks to Lauren

I think I'm going to turn these boxers into a skirt

There's also the stuff I gave to Gato and the stuff I didn't picture:
- gold wonder woman belt
- pair grey suede pumpls
- pair black leather sandal wedges
- sequined sailor costume
- green striped taffeta skirt
- fuschia cotton dress
- grey, white, pink cotton sundress
- yacht club sweater

It was a pretty good collection this time. Still debating whether or not I'll buy anything on the annual springtime Haight-Ashbury vintage outing.

Also I'm still trying to find ways to modernize all the great vintage I got from my granpere and his wife.

+ ironic t-shirts

I'm going to be straight with you and get some things off my chest. In all Honesty, I think you are stupid, ridiculous, NO ME GUSTA (if you know what I'm sayin). Sometimes it all bothers me and I don't find that it suits its purpose.

There are things out there which must be brought to our attention.
So here's to you, clueless people/ things to which I say DO NOT:


Yes, I'm talking to you, Brad.



Nessie, you're just so passe aren't you? With your in and out of the spotlight everybody is just clamouring over themselves to get a snapshot of you. Get lost, drama queen.


President's club (click it):

OK, get out of Obama's house now






Mannequins...so many things wrong with mannequins. I'm not going to go there.


OH YES - also I just ordered my quilted Cult Club purse from Itsumi, I'll post when I get it.

mystic Madame Rose

On Friday night Mr. Boddy was murdered in his mansion and it was up to us novelty characters to solve the mystery of who murdered him with what in which room? (ummm...ever heard the game of clue?)
Mayhem.Mystery.Murderrrrr.
My character was Madame Rose - a fraud from Medonia who is also rich Thellura in World of Warcraft.


dress - mom's vintage Moschino

Best.Dress.Ever....except for the part about the red lips peeling off.




Gato = Mrs. Peacock. Perhaps the most elusive character with hidden intentions.






bracelets - vintage, ring - grandpa's vintage
The charm bracelets used to be my grandma's that my grandpa gave to her. The charms on it boggle the mind: mini-hour glass, horse-shoe, bell, penny, etc...
The ring was my grandfather's too.

Hey story time! I walked into my room in the wee hours last night and a wonderous sight beheld my eyes: vintage up the wazoo! My mom brought home a bunch of stuff my grandpa's wife was getting rid of. I got stuff that was hers, my grandpa's, and her daughter's.











Isreali army shirt, gangsta!

So what I got
1 - dress/suit combo
2 - fur wraps
4 - shirts
2 - wool biking jerseys
4 - sweaters
1 - housedress
1 - porkpie hat

pretty good score, heh?

it's channukah, I'm leafing

...like a treeeee

Driving a few hours up the coast with the fam to a house in Mendocino/Gualala (walalaw?)

Be gone till Saturday, Hope you all have a Merry Channukah / Happy Christmas / whatever

*

Even though I'm Jewish, my idea of the "holiday season" is somehow a mush of thanksgiving/ christmas/ new years... so here's my holiday photo;

My cornucopia cap from thanksgiving (a month ago). So um...yeah, I am that loser who would rather take pictures on her friend's Mac while everyone else is socializing in the other room. I wonder if they noticed me steal away sheepishly to be by my bad self. Also I choose to make festive hats instead of play silly games.

And yes, my cornucopia cap has a hotdog in it.

In other news - Things I'v gotten for Channukah so far (these are the things I picked out, so I performed some sneakery and knew which ones to open first)

On the first night of Channukah my parents gave to me:

A sick ass motorcycle jacket

Tonight = Night 3

OH NO SHE DIDN'T!

sorry guys, but I did.

Minnetonka Moccasin brand ugg-style boots. I DON'T CARE how unstylish or ugly these things are, they're fucking warm and cozy as sheeeit. Also, I figure that since they're by Minnetonka, there has to be a little less guilt involved. C'mon man, it's cold in the D.

Ok, so I guess that's it for now. No internet access/ cell phone service for the next few days. Don't remember the last time I went without internet access for more than 24 hours... this is going to be a good thing

Follow the white rabbit

I'm hooked on Fifi Lapin's take on runway style. I'm not sure if Fifi Lapin is the name of the artist or the name of the featured character... or both?

Anyways, she sells the prints and drawings on her website. I wanted to buy some for people, but they're kinda over my budget and it's too hard to choose because they're all beautiful.

won't stop can't stop

Oh Heidi, how I miss thee. Need I say more?

Photobooth pictures from the summer, back when I had long hair and braces (with Kat and Heidi):


You could say that me and Kat are spoiled little children getting to see Heidi about once a year since she moved to Iowa a few years ago, I guess. Whenever she comes here it makes me miss the scoundrel even more...
Maybe this spring I'll get to visit her? yes? no? yes? no? Don't think I have the will power to save up enough money for a plane ticket.
Seeing as how she won't be coming up here and we'll be going to different colleges in under a year, I'm just kind of bummed. I'm naturally a lazy person, I just need to get off my ass and keep in touch.

Those two warlocks are my

Thugs 4 life

Trying to figure out a way to make this gunny sacks - puffy sleeve shirt from the 70's work
Mad Victorian Throwback Style my gangsta:

vintage shirt - mom, black skirt - target, charles jourdan heels - vintage

MORE VINTAGE cuz I can...

These heels were my grandma's in the 50's. I didn't inherit her tiny feet though, so I can only look at the too small warlocks. The most epic embroidered brocade ever = amore.

Last but not least:

"Outta this world fish"

Ariel took this a week ago when we went to Haight. No amount of "OhMYGAAAHS" can describe how obsessed I am with this picture. The fish is defying gravity forcyingoutloud... I love it.

You ain't no lover, but you ain't no dancer

POWER TO THE PEACEFUL!
It was also Laura's birthday, I didn't get any pictures even though it was crazy awesome fantastic super.

question 1:
who DIDN'T go to lovefest? Tell me and for you I will set up a charity fund, you poor poor soul.

that concludes the question portion of this test.


I really hope there were not any children there, they would be the "experimental one" for life.


more censorship because that thang was dirty like the south.


kat and laura getting nasty with DR. LOVE!


TRANSFORMERS, robots in DISGUISE! He was one of the best ravers I could ever hope to see. ever.
