Vintage madness! Horray

  So my best friend Ally ( she will be famous on my page) and I had plans to do responsible things. She needed to study, I needed to get errands done, and some important things off my to do list checked off.  It started with a late breakfast with our favorite, "Main street Mayor Johnny B!" ( He is not the mayor but he knows everyone, and everyone loves JB) And we love Johnny B, he knows how to put a smile on your face and leave you with the best out looks on life. Lots of laughter and shit talking ( not people shit talking, more like making fun of each other at the table)  occurred followed by big hugs and see you laters, see you later this weekend for Allys epic birthday weekend. wooohoo.



 We departed and intended to go take care of business, this didn't happen. Off we went to the lil consignment shop on Main street. When we first walked in, the vedors we stumbled upon in the front of the store were not tickling our fancies at all.  Totally not in the mood to scrounge for anything at all. But finally in the very back corner we found vintage Heaven!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH. And our mood for clothing hunting was sparked by the love of well made items, intricately designed, with beautiful quality fabrics, of that is so unfortunately rare these days.


The black sequins blazer, Ally did buy this, and that means I get to share this bute, hehe. And the was a very desired pink jacket, for a whooping $400 bucks! Not happening. But was so fun to strut in the mirror. And my favorite color at this moment in fashion, cobalt blue,  jacket was very affordable, and I was swimming in it. Boo.



It was like we rented the lil shop in the back all to ourselves and had a personally shopping day. And it began. We were taking off our cloths and trying on every piece of clothing on the racks in this gold mine, ooooing and ahhing. Before we knew it hours had passed, and it was time to check out, Ally hit the jack pot... and I helped her decide what was worth buying, what was the best purchase and helped her pick out her amazing birthday outfit for this weekend.

I absolutely positively want this dress only for $80.... but I dont need it, I want it, and this trend will not last.... If it is still residing in this shop in a few months, maybe ill give it a new home ;)


It was an absolute blast. Not one person bothered us as we had our personal shopping mission in that lil corner in the back. We cleaned up our mess said our good byes and we will definitely be back soon.


A couple of bad ass beaded 80s jackets .... at jaw dropping digits... eff

The color of this beautiful winter coat, was an amazing emerald green that I could not capture on my i phone no matter how hard I tried. It was all leather and not a huge splurge. Only $150, but I was enforcing a strict need only basis rule.



These two leather jackets were more than amazing, and more than our wallets can stand... each starting at $350 or more. But despite the prices this did not stop numerous movie montages.
