Mother Lode Part One-

I'm making a huge push in the shop...check it out; tons of incredible vintage and new designer clothing, accessories, shoes, even crazy housewares, fashion/art magazines, and books! Really primo stuff, and my spirits aren't flagging just yet, so expect many more. Ok, there was a pretty absurd amount of commas in the previous sentence...I apologize. Go to STREETWALKINCHEETAHS
and feast upon the veritable cornucopia of amazing-ness! Here's a teaser for you...enjoy!

She's So Untouchable

Umm, this is painfully good. As much as I adore the other looks (I mean, with their price points you know that leather is going to be softer than the softest puppy ears, right?) I have to say that the most lust inducing for me is that INCREDIBLE flared trouser cotton candy pink suit. That's so dang slick, it's like a slip 'n' slide! I love it. Gah. Must find way to exploit self and as many others as possible in order to reach that financial bracket. Come on, it's the American way, where's my piece of the pie? And what kind of pie is it, anyway? Does it have to be apple, because I'm really more of a lemon meringue gal myself. I digress.

Homesick.

Seriously. I know I talk about it all the time, but there's not much I wouldn't give/do to be living back home. I miss it so much. Now one of my bands is defunct because the guitarist/drummer (a couple, actually) are moving back to Oakland, where he's from. We've known each other for 15 years, and they're two of my only friends here. Major sad face. Sigh.

Grossest Clear Out Ever

Oh man...I'm drowning in clothing...the most massive push ever coming to the store. I'm having some sort of freaky cathartic overhaul of my clothes and general possessions. I think it's coming out of being seriously strapped, for one, and for another my various handicaps are just driving me totally nuts and I feel useless when I'm in this kind of pain. Hence, workaholic OCD mode + being broke = lots of incredible designer and vintage for you! Here are a few things I'm working on. They're already being put up in the store!

Damn.

So, yeah, I've been unbelievably MIA lately...sorry guys. I've had two deaths in my immediate family in two months, a bout of the flu so nasty that I subsequently lost 15 pounds in a month, and more medical problems, bills, and unreal mistreatment by doctors that I'm frankly surprised that my head hasn't exploded all over one of them by now. I'm trying to put it all back together, or barring that, just saying to hell with it and starting over. But damn it, I'm still here.

Really? Again?

So I basically JUST got home from California when I was viciously attacked by a particularly nasty viral flu which utterly laid waste to the temple which is my rather crumbling body. Stress and grief from returning from Suzy's (my brother's partner girlfriend lover) funeral after her completely unexpected and sudden death. The virus ravaged me for over a month, taking 15 pounds of my frame, leaving me so weak that to walk to the bathroom of my house left me panting and almost passing out. I'm trying to recover from it...my grandmother just died. So back to California I go. I'll be posting some really incredible shit in the next week to hopefully fund my trip. Also: I need to own Alaia pieces and seriously I don't even remember the last Chanel I managed to score...

A Few Of My Favorite...

I know, I know. Bad holiday reference. To salve your wounded sensibilities, here are a few of my all time favorite eBay searches.
"studded-->clothing, shoes, accessories-->vintage" All kinds of fun stuff comes up.

Just When You Thought Things HAD To Look Up-

It was just a few short weeks ago I had one of the worst "vacations" of my life back home in California, and right after I got back I received word that my brother's amazing, beautiful, brilliant, talented, sweet, funny girlfriend Suzanne Day had SUDDENLY passed away. I basically got home, sent out some eBay packages, kissed my fiance and my dogs, and got right back on a plane. So I'm sorry I haven't been updating guys, then my laptop took El Crappo as well and I've just not been the best conversationalist as of late. Here's a photo of Suzy. Her loss is being felt like an earthquake in the lives of all who were lucky enough to have known her. I've never met anyone who I had so much in common with, with fashion being one of our greatest mutual passions. I'm deeply sad that we didn't get more time.
