Lost Boy
(Uncategorized)

September 09 2009

I spent my actual Labor Day Goodwill hunting with dudeguy.  Always a good time.  After picking out a grey blazer (FINALLY!  I’d been looking for a very long while), dudeguy brought over a large black t-shirt asking if it was any good.

Is this from Italy?

Now, I am by no means a label whore, but I’ve noted my soft spot for Armani in the blog.  As soon as I saw the tag (Collezioni again!) and that shirts were on sale for .99, I snatched it lovingly removed it from his hand.  So what if it’s a men’s XL?  I planned to make it work.  One random skinny belt later and I suddenly feel fresh off of the set of a modern adaptation of Peter Pan.

Sometimes you just have to.

I’m really digging this low-slung skinny belt business.  Maybe I’ll wear more dresses (t-shirts?).

*this belt is actually one of my first attempts at haggling at flea markets.  After being told it would cost $10 (umm, fuck no) and noticing another girl looking at the same ones a few minutes later (and being equally unimpressed with the price), I chased her down (really), and asked if she wanted to go in on three of them.  Apparently, if you bought three, you got a deal….riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.  Anyway, we ended up getting three for $15.  She took two; I took one.  Not bad.  =D

    yeah, i just got on that boat. my concern is the slight breeze that will bring me from ‘ooh, how cute’ to ‘ooh, a cooter’.

    I love the combination.
