Life as, me

Hi friends!
Well, I made the decision to change my blog name. As the days rolled into months , my blog was developing into a voice of my own. In the beginning, I was really dialing in on creating an 'Urban farm girl that looks damn fine in vintage' theme blog.  True, this will still exist but there will be more..Hopefully.
I don't like to add pressure to myself. So instead, as I said in the beginning of my blog, this will be my top layer diary. Nothing to personal , but defiantly  personality.


Life as equine bovine.
I am horse. I am cow.
I am the earth, the soil, the sun , the air.
I am a four legged soul.

Love me for who am I , as I feel awkward and tipsy in this world.

Crimson Sister

 Crimson and Clover has been super awesome. It has allowed me to be, me!
 I work there 2 days a week, listen to rock n' roll , price my vintage clothing and also give into the beautiful habit of shopping for myself. 



Dress and custom made necklace by Flaming Hag Folkwear.
Earrings from the new Goodwill Boutique.
Booties from Citizen Rosebud.


 Equine Bovine is giving you some sweet arm candy!
 FHF, Porkchop Rules, and Equine Bovine upcycled Tees.
 Back to school time!
 My favorite Fn' tee ever! Purchased from one of my favorite Fn' vintage shops. Animal Traffic in Portland, Oregon. Man, I wish I had more of their goods on my back.
Patchwork jeans from Freestyle.
And, check out these bitchin' shoes that FHF had for sale..Oh I so wish I didn't have funky toes. I would of scooped them up for good!
 Japanese housecoat 
 Joe is so cute. He was shopping for some man attire. He picked out these Moose Moccasins. When he was ready to check out , he became so stoked and surprised that they were mine! Nah, I didn't charge him..Well, he bought me a fancy coffee drink for exchange :)
 It's all about the South West right now.
 California Chipper dress..ahh, love this one.


Later lovies!

Whispering Leos

 Yah man, I'm still alive. Things at home have been really crazy. I recently started selling my vintage and working at Crimson and Clover. On top of that, I still work at Magpie full time. Then my mother in law moved in with me, my husband, my two dogs, one cat, and shit loads of clothes , music equipment and records in our one bedroom apartment....And, ON TOP OF THAT, she was in the hospital for awhile for mini strokes just as she moved in with us. Needless to say , I have been burnt. Big time.
Lifes good! Diggin' on Crimson. Had a soul mending vacation up in Dunsmuir Ca. (blog post to come) and tonight I celebrated my 6 year eloping anniversary with my awesome husband Joe Kojima.
So ,  I thought I would share this birthday party I went to. It was called 'Leo Fest'. Hosted by Mike and Laurie Blanchard of the Whispering Chingaderos.  A night full of stompin' and rompin' . Tunes from Th' Losin' Streaks, Whisky Pills Fiasco, The Whispering Chingardaros, and 50 Watt Heavy. Check it out!

 John Waters vibe, for sure!

Hope all of you are having a groovy summer!
