I'm Back?

I am considering starting up this blog again. I really miss doing it. The only problem is, I'm not sure if I will have the time to devote to it. But I'm going to try and make the time. So if you have continued to read this blog, then thank you for your support and I will be back!

I still have a few photos that I never got around to posting, so check out this vintage Levi's Olympics velour track jacket:




I believe this was for the 1984 Olympics. Check out the patch on the back!



That is the best part. We actually own three of these jackets now, but mine is the only one with a patch. Pretty rad.



It is finally starting to feel like spring here in Michigan; it's actually supposed to be 80 all weekend. I'm contemplating buying a second bike; I don't really need it, but I want it. Is that a smart way to spend $75? Hmm. Thoughts?

Chris Brown is a turd

Okay, this is why I should never take pictures when I wake up in the morning, but I was determined to post a blog today, so here you go!


'80s track jacket. Apparently there are stains on that shirt. Oh well.

I realize I am inconsistent in posting. I'd like to post every day, but I guess that is unrealistic. However, I will try to get around to posting almost every day!

Here's a side view/mug shot:


It's not an Adidas jacket, by the way.

Can I just say that I am so happy it is Friday? I've got big plans for the weekend, but I think I'll keep it quiet for now. What about you, have anything fun going on? Did you have a good week, a bad week? Mat and I had half-off coupons for Value World this past week, but unfortunately we didn't find very many things. We have more for March so hopefully we do better next time around!

Also, supposedly Chris Brown is going to attempt to claim that he beat up Rhianna in self defense. Really? What a ... feel free to fill in the blank.

Madness


I can't get over how rad this shirt is. It fits like a glove, is supersuper thin, and the graphic speaks for itself. I'm not even a huge Alice Cooper fan or anything (although my mom was at my age!), but as far as t-shirts go, this is one of my best finds. It's got a few small holes but, since I'm keeping it for myself, who cares.

Here's a close-up of the graphic so you can actually see where it says Alice Cooper:


And also a picture of the tag:


I should also point out that the colors on the print are neon in real life. I am in serious love with this shirt.

Mat and I went thrifting today but unfortunately didn't have any good finds. There was this decent leather jacket,


but the price was ridiculous, and Mat's jacket collection is pretty well-stocked as is. I also found a fucking amazing LEATHER SKORT but unforch it didn't fit over my butt. Maybe next time.

We started our day by eating SONIC, which is a favorite pastime of mine (and an excellent hangover cure, if I might add).

I hope you all had an amazing weekend, back to another work week...

Posting from my iPhone!


It's almost 40 today in Michigan, which feels like 60 after the weather we've been having. '90s Nike track jacket.

Stripes

Today I'm wearing a late '80s/possibly early '90s striped shirt I picked up the other day at a thrift store, still with the original tags!


You can't really see in the picture, but there are three buttons on the left shoulder.

I also want to start sharing every now and then thrifted pieces I have previously sold. There is one jacket in particular that I sold soon after I bought it, but lately I have been regretting that decision. At the time, I didn't think I'd ever wear it, but I see now that I was so, so wrong. I regret not having a better picture!

I only have a picture of the front,


but the back is what made the jacket! The back had a large image of a silver, glittery unicorn. It was ... amazing. That jacket is one of the few items I regret ever selling.

I'll post more previous sales soon, as well as outfits.

On a side note, does anyone else love Pineapple Express? James Franco has been nominated for a Golden Globe for his performance as best actor in a comedy/musical. I find that to be hilarious and also well-deserved. Other great nominations are In Bruges for best comedy and both Tom Cruise and Robert Downey Jr. for Tropic Thunder (although I favor the latter!).

Well, I'm going to go enjoy the rest of my day off. I'm glad it's almost the weekend!
