Birthday Treats ^_^


I had a totally laid back and easy birthday, and it was just perfect.  ^_^

I treated myself to these these lovelies that were on super sale at a steal price of $5...fine Italian vintage leather shoes....DYING to try them with some flare pants I am working on refitting.  Check out Honey Comb Bridal on Etsy!




I got a Kohl's gift card also, and so I decided that Runa and I would make that trek today and see what we could see.  I usually have success with their clearance shoe section.  I scored these Vera Wang wedges over Christmas one year, the last pair in my size!!




While I was looking for me I came across these beauties, which are the shorter version of a shoe I own.  Basically the millionth knock off of the original Chloe Sevigny bootie that SLAUGHTERED the heart of any girl with a lick of taste.  My mom had said how much she liked them twice so at a fraction of the original retail tag of over $70, I couldn't resist picking them up for her at $14.99





Found these for myself, and (this goes for all the shoe shots) I think they are more attractive shoes in person.  Also $14.99 marked down from over $70.  ^_^  Saved over $120 by shopping the sale with a gift card!!  Yay for thrifty spending!!




I also bought myself a new glass sculpture, and am currently hunting the proper plants to go in it.  ^_^  I picked up hair color for 5 different people today!!  Feel so excited to be partially back to life as usual.  Lots of stuff going on in our busy little life. 

Tomorrow my husband and I are going to get matching nautilus shell tattoos.  I have a plan for the matching one later...when I have more money and a solid drawing/ideas.  That's at 1 pm tomorrow with Visual Addiction in Carlisle, PA.

Military Jacket


I was lucky enough to be able to make a trade with my favorite vintage clothing store; my vintage surplus for a few of their season perfect fall vintage pieces and store credit!!



Sometimes I really can't believe my luck!! Sometimes you have to give them some extended love, I had these shoes over hauled at a local cobbler but it ensures the shoes last another 30 years, and maybe more!


brand new red hair! it's not as long as it looks in this picture, but with hair half up/half down ...it will fool anyone on first glance ^_~

all accessories were vintage picks from The Salvation Army, and Goodwill/Volunteers of America
top from target
jeans from ROSS
