Hello hello.

Top o' the Tuesday morning to you guys. I haven't written on here for awhile, so I thought I'd give y'all an update as to what's going on in my life...First of all, I'm homeless for two and half days (not literally...our house is being fumigated and so I've been staying at a local motel exactly one minute walking distance to work), I have sausage fingers and baguette feet - for some reason my hands and feet have swollen up and are really painful and burning...they feel like open wounds and it hurts to do anything...anyone know what it could be? My boyfriend's in Costa Rica so I've been spending time with friends...you gotta love 'em...and I've had a lot of bonding time with my puppy...That's pretty much it. Oh my coworkers just came in and recapped all the symptoms I've had over the last year and pretty much summarized that I've racked up a $30,000 copay bill...funny, but not funny, all at the same time. Oye.

Anyway, onto vintage news: Summer and I have been discussing doing a vintage package giveaway. We're going over specifics right now, but it might involve creating your favorite outfit from the items in our shop ORRRR showing us your personal vintage style...we'll let you know when details are figured out!! SO EXCITING!

Updates on Tuesday's and Fridays

So with both of us having a busy schedule with our other jobs we have decided to do two large updates a week...TUESDAY's and FRIDAY's. We will be able to keep the shop nicely stocked and you wont have to check back for a slow trickle of listings.

DARLING DAHLIA!

I just purchased this lovely pair of earrings from softspoken.etsy.com and let me tell you...I'M SO EXCITED TO WEAR THEM. They're very unique (handcrafted with cotton thread and stiffened to stabilize the flower shape) and sure to stand out with their bright red color. Everyone be sure to check this shop out where you'll find other goodies like handmade scarves, cowls, berets, clothing AS WELL as beloved vintage items. A note to softspoken: please continue to make more of these, I'm sure they're going to be a hit!

wino

I love wine, and that's no lie. I have a soft spot for red Zinfandel which I have been sucking Cecilia into the same grasp. big, bold and spicy 'plungerhead zinfandel' is some yummy stuff. plus the label is silly to look at and I always enjoy some great design. so if you come across this zin you should give it a try.

shorts stuff...

High waisted, short shorts really do make an impression, past and present. I was under the impression that showing leggage back in the day was a no-no, but look how hot Miss Marilyn looked. Cute and fun and would really love to own a pair, but don't know if I'd be able to really own it the way these ladies do...Oh well, I'll be on the lookout for some hotpants.
