If I were to style a mermaid fresh off the sea, I would don her with things that will remind her of her maritime home...because whatever specie you are,culture shock can still be a sea urchin on your butt.

Vintage Vectorie

Groan...Monday. I had to wake my legs up to take me to work with these uber bright red tights. Target has, I think the brightest most opaque tights on this planet, so go get you one, and blind people. To offset the industrial gray drabness of my office walls, I employed some vector frou frou for foreground. I'm not sure if it's making it worse. 75% on this photo is vintage even the walls. It's not subterfuge when I tell you I am wearing a $3.00 pair of boots, new with tags through the kindness of thrift store serendipity.

Late post, I had to do all the Thanksgiving pre-requisites. As always, food was good, company even better and the midnight shopping spree, stellar! Bought a ton of stuff I shouldn't be buying but I need content for this blog. Marvelous excuse. Expect more bargain fashion posts soon. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

Green Legs and Ham

This is my first post, so yay me! I got off my lazy ass and did something artsy fartsy tarty. Banner photo was taken by one of my bestfriends, Tabitha. She is my platonic chemical romance. So anyway, today's ephemeral look is brought to you by my closet, which basically threw out the clothes to me hence the love it or hate it color combo. Green, orange, pink and cream. Love it? Yes? Good, you're cool. Cardigan is Forever Love, prairie dress and green leggings are from Rue 21, pepto pink leather belt with orange and white enameled buckle is vintage and the shoesies is Nine West...probably the most comfortable uncomfortable looking shoes that I have. Frock on!
