hello new friend

Marissa and I ventured to the outskirts of civilization today, aka Risom Mill Indoor Flea Market in Danielson, Connecticut.

This little baby was some of the best $3 I have ever spent.

Last night at 1 am I got the great idea to give tshirt shredding a try.
It took over 3 hours and my hands still feel a little sad, but all in all, I suppose it was worth it.

into dust

Been listening to Mazzy Star's album "So Tonight That I Might See" on repeat.

1998

I have been going through old bags/boxes of clothing I had packed away at my dad's. Some of it has been packed away since high school, possibly even middle school, and as I reached my hand into a bag full of what I had assumed was all useless crap, I came out with this:

My faux fur, leopard print mini circa 1998.
Amazing.

tree bark

suede lace up ankle boots from yesstyle.com

suede sandstorm boots from madewell

 winsford clog boots from free people

Things I cannot afford due to saving up to move.

On a more positive note, I had the best week of thrifting I have probably ever had.
Highlights including a pair of eggplant, high waisted silk tap shorts, a black, mid calf length tank dress, black, high waisted trousers, a long sleeve, silk button down blouse in a tree bark print, and "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" on dvd.
On top of all that, the bf found himself a pair of perfect fitting A.P.C. jeans at goodwill.

It's just about time to clean out some of my old clothes.

I feel like the past week has drained the life out of me.
