My Favorite Things 1.3




This will be a very picture heavy post, but while my soul is wasting away at work, I thought I'd to another post about shit I'm loving at the moment.


I put this on right before I go to bed & it re-hydrates my skin while the scent of Lavender helps me sleep.

My big hair owes it all to Unite Hair's Liquid Volume Texture Spray.  I few spritzes of this baby & my hair is bouffant for DAYS!


I'm absolutely OBSESSED with FriendPrices on Etsy & when I saw this print, I had to snag a Redhead and Blonde one for myself. 


My newfound obsession with vintage Barbie clothes has now mixed with my addiction to lingerie. This 1960's set is what dreams are made of.... I may have also ordered a black version too...
I have to admit that I have a real buying problem on ebay... a problem that means I can outbid people at the last nano second to achieve this Barbie fashion glory.
THE LINING!!! I die every time I see the amazing construction on one of these!



If this fit me I would be keeping it. This has to be one of my favorite things in my Etsy Shop 💓

The last picture is more of a random sentiment. This fine gentleman below is Sam Weir from my FAVORITE show, Freaks and Geeks.  
This is the EXACT face I make when some rich, white, asshole tells me, and I quote, "You should smile, life isn't that scary". You know what sir? What's scary will be your face after I throw my hot tea onto it.
It reminded me of a time when I was in my early twenties and I worked at a small boutique by myself.  There was a younger couple looking around while this EXTREMELY disturbed guy came in and started to hit on me.  When I told him to back off and get the hell out he told me he'd beat the shit out of me and throw me into the mirror that was right behind me.  Luckily he left when I called the police, but the sad part is that I now have to hesitate to verbalize my anger when any guy does that. 
The young couple was watching the whole thing unfold and kept distancing themselves from me and this guy.  They never said a word or offered to help until he left and all they said was, "We wanted to step in, but it looked like you could handle it.  We didn't want to get involved". 
This story is NOT one of my favorite things, but this picture is my favorite because this is now how I physically have to show my anger. Plus Sam Weir is the shit.

Wear Whatever the Hell You Want

I don't know about you, but I feel like everyday should be a day to dress-up, wear weird things, or just be a different style version of yourself. My style is not fluid by any means.  I wear what I want and there's usually never any rhyme or reason.  I go through spurts where I will wear nothing but Black for weeks on end, or I'll wear the most ostentatious vintage blouse or dress. Weird looks and stares are usually waiting outside the door, but as Mae West said, "It's better to be looked over than over-looked". Or at least, that's my motto. Lately, I've decided that if I want to wear a 1950's bathing suit out and about, I'm going to. I don't live near any lakes or pools, but it's nice to pretend like you do :) 1950's Bathing Suit w/ a 1960's Bed Jacket I'm quite a big fan of Vintage Bed Jackets and it's one of the many things I hoard (collect).  I found this GORGEOUS & PRISTINE Deadstock Bed Jacket from "

The One Phrase That Makes Me Cringe & How We Can Change It...

"I love vintage clothing, but I don't know when I'd wear it" Whenever someone makes that comment to me, my heart breaks a little.  The answer is that you can ALWAYS find a time & place to wear vintage!  The key is to have CONFIDENCE when you wear something outside of your comfort zone! Even if you're not confident, FAKE IT! Pretend you're playing a role until that confidence becomes the truth! I grew up wearing things, not necessarily vintage, that always caused people to talk, sneer or poke fun at me.  That's was people do when they don't understand you or, let's face it, life in general. Well guess what? That's NOT your problem! If they don't like it, great! They don't have to wear it! That leaves more amazing clothing for you! Photo by Kelsey Jenson Photography One of my favorite things about wearing vintage is that I can incorporate those pieces into my newer outfits! Whenever I buy clothing, new or old, I always as

The Never Ending List of Collection Additions...

Here we are yet again with the latest addition to my Burlesque Costume Collection 😊 I can't help myself.. I really can't.... I could but I don't want to... Just LOOK at the detailing.... the faux Pearls, Silver sequins, Lurex, Sea Beads! I really believe that these are pieces of art especially because they're handmade!  You can really tell when something is extravagantly made when the sheer weight of it makes you go "Uffda!". I will never get over the pure beauty of these pieces because they really show you the personality of the artist wearing them. The 1960's really brought the "A" game when it came to burlesque attire. 1960's set includes arm bands, belt & bra via TiffLittleFingers on Etsy The waterfalls of beading on the bra really get me going! I often wonder how many backbreaking hours it took to make this whole piece. The dedication & vision is truly amazing! I normally don't make many fashio
