Watch me not care.

Oh hump day why couldn’t you have come sooner...I still can’t believe it’s ONLY Wednesday. I am leaving on a jet plane for Seattle on Saturday and then proceeding onto a cruise ship and set sail...or I guess I should say propellers for Alaska!! I am in a bit of a tough spot though. I looked up the weather and it’s supposed to be raining the entire week! Booo, I guess it could be worse but I was really looking forward to some nice cooler weather. Not wet…which means NO shorts or tanks…laaaame.

Does any one have any suggestions for some outfits!? It should be in the high 50’s and wet…ugh. But I am excited to take a well needed vacation!!

I am wearing:
Sunnies-Ray ban
Blouse- Express button up
Belt-Vintage Furrrrster
Shorts-DIY Mom jean shorts
Shoes- NEW :) Jessica Simpson


So I am so ecstatic about receiving my gorgeous Jessica Simpson Dany platty’s yesterday! As I was saying on my lookbook and chictopia posts these babies caused quite the ruckus last night @ my Mother’s house. Lets just say she didn’t likey, she thinks shorts and high heels looks stripper/hooker-ish; which I completely DON’T agree with. So as I am trying to explain to her the style and the fact that I am 23 and don’t give a fuck what ANY one thinks…duh hello I have a shit ton of tattoo’s…she got pretty upset, so I left. We have since talked it out and she realizes that when she was MY age she wore the same shit if not worse. So all is well again, but she still doesn’t like my sky high UH mazing platty’s...fuck if I should care. I LOVE LOVE LOVE them and so does my BF!! He thinks they are Moy caliente!!!

Please excuse the bruises..them and me go hand and hand like banana's and Nutella

I am wearing:
Snood-Vintage Inspired
Blouse- Vintage
Circle Skirt-Vintage Saks
Shoezies-Vintage Stuart Weitzmans


So today is just an outfit post. I've been wanting to share this amazing skirt and pair of shoes with you guys. I came up on these beaut's through an EX, his G-ma had passed and his Mom let me go through all of Gammies clothes. I happend to come up on both the Saks Skirt and Stuart Weitsman heels. A fucking score if I have ever heard of one, right!? I love Free 99...

Also I don't know if alot of you are familiar with Snoods (the fishnet looking hat I am wearing) Snoods, along with turbans and head scarves were introduced during WWII(1940's) for a fashion alternative for the "working" lady. Since most men were off @ war, the woman had to work and instead of wearing those ghastley hair nets(EW) they wore these to keep their locks off their face and also to show support for our troops. pretty coolio huh?

If you notice the ribbon tied into the hair of two of these ladies there is a reason they are there. The ribbon wasn't an extra fashion statement, just like in Hawaii with flowers, the ribbon is a label... SINGLE!!! These were to let guys know these ladies were not married yet, and were available. This was also a tradittion in Scotland and parts of Europe up untill the 20th century.



Have a grrrreat weekend everyone!

Please continue to give me your opinions, wether good or bad(I LOVE a good "discussion" I am a firm believer in constructive critasism) Thanks again you guys and gals! I LOVE YOU!!!

I am wearing: Scarf-Vintage
Dress-Bebe
Shawl-Vintage
Shoes-Aldo
Purse- Vintage Fossil


So I have THREE gogeous new items that will soon be up for sale @ Dutch Oven Vintage. The first is a Perfect Condition Vintage Fossil Satchel. This lil beaut has a built in wallet in the side zipper pocket, so no more leaving the ID and CC's @ the bar...oooops >)...
Second is the Vintage Suede Shawl i am wearing. This is made out of polyester(feels like micro fiber suede) and suede fringe. With rose black on black embroidery all around the fringed edges. This is a light weight shawl, perfect for those Indian summer nights!
Third is that Vintage Paisley print Scarf. I have had this scarf for a while and am ready to part with it. The paisley print features an awry of beautifully bold gem tone colors, sure to give any plain outfit a big POP of color.
