she's a burnout

I recently have been thifting alot of black lately. But not just any black. Black velvet, black mesh, black flax,black fringe. black black black black.
As much as I loooove to wear psychedely prints, my true heart is black. Well not literally but I do love to wear the color.
With my new little maxi number, I am wearing my favorite necklace. I feel like I have about 8 billion pieces of neck jewelry, but she is the one I always gravitate to. Dig it? I do!

Also, we got a new vintage store in town kids! Its called Racks Vintage. The shop lies on 24th & R right next to ye' olde Round Corner Bar. I went there the other night and picked up these rockin' shoes. They are a size to big for me, but who cares! They are leather platform goodness with wood soles!

Wearing all black in the summer always feel so silly to me. As if being an Irish wench living in the valley is not torture enough, but then I go ahead and pile some black clothing on my back!! Eh, who cares. Pain is beauty, beauty is pain. Tomato-Tomato. Maybe one day I will be featured in 'goths in hot weather' A pasty broad like myself can only dream!

totally turban

The 90's infrared rays time machine have penetrated my brain , and all I see is crushed velvet!
I have been wanting it alot lately. So I have been slowly accumulating bits and pieces of velvet like material into my wardrobe. I really wish I had some of my teenage pictures to show you. I would walk down Main St. in my little foothills town wearing draping black velvet dresses , with my long blue green hair swaying and sticking to the gown giving it an oil slick affect.

I purchased this turban from Kara of Porkchop Rules. She recently scored a large loot from a local estate sale, and this was one of the treasures!
MEOW!!
