wearing vintage dress c/o undead dandy, vintage lei shoes-little raisin vintage, stud collar-fitch bace

this is very The Craft isn't it?  that wasn't intentional... wellll, witchy & 90s are both up there on the bravegrrl aesthetic pyramid.  i wore dresses like this to every high school event that was formal/semi-formal.  with a pair of docs of course.  maybe i'll dig up some old pix some day and show y'all my steez...

the dress is from my newest sponsor undead dandy.  audrey is soooo awesome and her shop is filled with thrift finds with a 90s gothy vibe... sooooo perfect.  and everything is very affordable.
check out her shop xo

here are some of my favorite items(click on the pic to shop)...  someone really needs to buy them before i break down...

on a real note (i can really only write about clothes so much.  i prefer to touch, cut, dye & take them on burrito adventures) you must read madelines' new post here.  it is necessary.  she really is unbelievably awesome at spreading knowledge and empowering other grrls.  in a recent post she wrote something that perfectly describes how i feel about my new grrlyfriendzz
isabel, seaghna, rachel, brit, madeline, casey & selena
annnd larissa... we need to hang again grrl.

"Being surrounded by a positive community of smart badass women does wonders for the soul, especially given how eager society is to encourage women to hate each other in some bizarre pursuit of male attention. For all of you who fall into the 13-17 year old demographic, there's a moral in this story. If you find yourself intimidated by someone who's hot and badass and smart and talented and stuff, don't get jealous. Get friendly."

i've been sewing like crazy.... i've made three maxi skirts including this one, 4 headbands and a dress. stretch velvet is kinda taking over my mind right now....
i'm kinda dying to take a trip anywhere and go cd shopping (as in two separate events)... i guess i need to jump on that itunes thing huh? i mean i do have itunes, but all the music was loaded from cds.... analog grrl in a digital world...
paris is like a lover i've never met
until then it'll be all about velvet and amy winehouse...and pink floyd and neil young and iggy pop and daydreaming and zoning out and taking walks and drinking coffee and not sleeping and creating and did i say daydreaming?
