loft dreamin

i'm so glad we went to the brewery artwalk today... to be honest i wasn't really feeling it, but the bf kinda insisted in a sweet subtle way and i am SO glad we went. it was good to be out in the open enjoying the beautiful weather, local art, old buildings, cold beer and my people...

it happens twice a year, so if you are in the l.a. area you should definitely try to make it to the next one... i added a few links above for other like minded nerdy internet readers... i google anything i am (half) interested in...

i got these pants from asos... and love them! they are an early bday present from the bf.... i saw them a couple weeks ago and was afraid they'd sell out in my size. i cropped them... along with a bunch of my other pants... i'm diggin the whole ankle thing... don't you think ankles are underrated? the shirt is so old and haggard but i just can't get myself to get rid of it... today i renewed it for spring by chopping off the long sleeves.

ok, i best get in bed...

ohh, i wanted to let any of you grrrls that were interested in the cobrasnake almost famous sunglasses know that i found them on ebay for $5.95.... yup and they are great quality, especially for the price. they are on their way to me in gold now since i know they are good quality and well... it's my bday month xoxo

thrifted gap shirt (cut up), asos jeans (also cut), my favorite boots-jeffrey campbell, ebay sunglasses, all old adornments, current favorite nail polish-sally hansen 'wet cement'

it is easier than you might think cuz your feet don't need the ground

these were taken the same day as the last post, but i wanted to show you the coat and sweater in their full glory so i split it into two posts.... here is the coat story... i got it on ebay for $10.49.... with shipping it was under $24! but that isn't the best part.... i was searching all kinds of randomness on ebay one day.... including faux fur jackets, and this baby popped up.... low and behold i was feasting my eyes on a jacket that i owned years ago and sold because i needed to eat. the lining was falling apart in mine, but this one came to me brand new with the original price tag still stapled on. yes, stapled... it is that old. i was wearing my original jacket when i quit my first waitressing job.... walking down the street with a check in my hand and the rain hitting my face.... it was liberating! it is amazing how my new one brought back some of those memories... including how it felt to sell my stuff...

it's like a sign, someone is telling me i'm doing good by giving me this little gift back...

vintage coat-ebay, american gold sweater gifted from spanish moss, h&m leggings, jeffrey campbell boots, vintage glasses stolen from the bf, rings- elizabeth&james and vintage

he says the room chills when i am sad

time to bundle up... and i'm loving it.

reading by the fire, wearing socks fresh out of the dryer, hot chocolate in my favorite chair, christmas lights lighting up the streets, and gift ideas running 'round my mind...

goodtimes goodtimes

and i am very happy that i can put my hair in a high bun again. i enjoyed the shorter cut, but i really am a long haired grrl. i just have to be able to sweep it out of my face.... so i am on my way back to this.

the weather finally got to me today. i had the blues in a major kind of way. but it's all good. i mosied around doing errands when i happened across an accordion player (playing chim chiminey!!!) and i remembered who i am...

this weekend was weird. somber but more adventurous/random than the last dozen. we went to amoeba on saturday. last week at toi they were playing live queens of the stone age... and i had to have it... i also picked up a couple clash albums that i have on cassette(wt???), ramones & misfits...
just so you know... amoeba records is heaven...
