Woke up, went for a jog, made breakfast…I have to work today, but that’s not bringing me down.

Today feels like this song

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting a fascinating man yesterday at work. He looked a little like Chong and walked in with two woven Mexican bags full of items to sell to the store. Little did I know my world was about to be rocked by the vintage treasures in those bags. 70′s flowy hippie dresses, 80′s riding boots, beautiful leather pieces…ahhhh I died a little inside. Now, not only did he bring us some amazing treasures, but his personal style was pretty amazing as well. This guy knows his vintage, he wore a basic black tee, with torn up vintage levis, and the most perfectly worn in pair of Red Wing Chukka boots, which he said were from 1976(!), oh and he had a badass silver apache head ring with jeweled eyes. It was one of the most perfect ensembles I had seen on a man in a long time. Were he single and 25 years younger, I would have been all over that LOL! Seriously though, I now implore all the men out there to go out there and get your own pair of Red Wing Chukkas (you need a good chukka in your life anyway) and wear them until every millimeter of that shoe has an amazing story to tell.

Thank you.

sitting on my bed looking at this issue of French Vogue for the second time around, and I had to so a double take…Indeed that girl that looked like Ciara was Ciara. I much prefer her in this form than, wearing furs over bikinis singing about how good she rides it. Enjoy!

watching these made me feel warm and fuzzy inside. The art of bespoke.

I love/want/got so turned on by everything in this set. I know it’s really crowded, and honestly I could have kept going, but I had to give myself a stopping point…all the consuming I wanted to do was available for me on Polyvore. So good.
