I can't stop thinking of this song by the Cure. My husband Ben just ordered this super rad shirt that I'm in love with! It has all these pictures that illustrate the lyrics of the song. I'm super excited for it to get here so I can wear it! Anyway speaking of things I love, I am in love with this dress, I can't seam to stop wearing it! I feel like I'm wrapping my body in a giant soft picnic blanket...

Idk why I look so grumpy in these pictures, life is really good right now, I think I was just hot and wanting to go inside and drink my ice cold root-beer! I finally got the new etsy store up and running, I have tons more things to add, but at least I finally started working on it! My amazing friend Zhee has been modeling for me, I'll post some things from the store on here once I get a few more things up, but if you want to check out what's up so far here is the link to my little project Geek USA .


Hope everyone is having a great weekend make sure to try to do something you love with people you love today!!! Hopefully this healthfulness will last and I can keep posting and working on the store more often!


Love and Peace

You've Got Pickle Hair and You Got it From Me!

Wow wow wow okay sorry for disappearing... I took these pictures on April 30th with every intent on posting that day... better late then never right? Idk I just have been in a bad place lately. I just have been really confused about life, what I want to do with my life, and figuring out why I'm not happy and what to do about it. Blah blah blah I swear I don't want sympathy or to make excuses about not blogging, just wanted to let you know where I have been, and why I have been such a flack on this here blog of mine. I have far from figured everything out yet, but I know that I really love fashion, and thrifting, and being a part of this wonderful little corner on the internet so I am going to really try hard to blog a whole hell of a LOT more often. Also I think I am going to go back to school in the Fall we will see how/if that works out. Soooo yeah do any of you lovely ladies watch Parks and Recreation? I love that show, it always makes me so happy, so I watch it a lot and the title of this blog post is from a song that the character Andy sings. I picked it because I am super bored/ frustrated with my hair and don't know what to do with it any hair ideas?








Wearing:
Hat- Thrifted
Miss-matched Earrings- Rummage sale
Choker- Okay so yes I'm kind of wearing a dog collar but I found it at a thrift store with the necklaces and I really liked the leather, color, and studs so I decided to go ahead and buy it and wear it every day.
Crystal Necklaces- Soulmates
Longest three necklaces- Coming soon to Geek USA
Sunglasses- Thrifted
Tee and Purse- Tunnel Vision
Shirt/Jacket Thingy- Thrifted
Bracelets- Vintage, thrifted, and Geek USA
Shorts- DIY
Sweater Leggings- Dillard (On sale for 6 bucks!)
Boots- Coming soon to Geek USA  

I don't think I have ever talked about this before on my blog but I use to be a dancer. Like a hard core dancer that wanted to be a principle ballerina when I grew up. I use to live at the studio, taking four to five hours of class every day during the week, and had company rehearsals on the weekends. Then I started to get sick and injured all the time. Eventually I had to stop dancing do to health problems. But my health is a lot better and I really miss dancing. So I am trying to get back in shape this summer so I can dance again so get ready for some fantastically ridiculous outfit post of me in vintage dance-wear... yeah it will be epic.  

Love and Peace,

Kelsey

Mr. F

 Hi there! I'm not dead! Yay! Sorry for my ridiculously long absence from blogging, life just got in the way. But I am so happy to be back. I missed blogging. Anyhow, we finally moved to a bigger place, it is so fantastic to not be in a basement anymore. So Arrested Development devotees should get the title with this outfit. For everyone else, well go on Netflix and watch all three seasons right now!!!!! Basically in the third season there is a character named Rita, whom I love, and am very inspired by her style. She wears a bracelet that reads Mr. F and it is a huge plot point, and there are a whole lot of jokes around it, and a song. But yeah Arrested Development is the bomb digity! watch it now! Oh yeah, and she wears this hat just like the one I am wearing, and she holds the tail up like there is a camera in it...

Yeah and I changed my hair a while ago and now it is kinda yellow, green, and blue it makes me feel like a mermaid!


I love my giraffe bracelet, he is my friend.

So I wanted to wear my orange cross today but it clashed with my other necklaces so in Kelseyland the obvious solution was to wrap it around my boot.

I wish I was Rita, not really, because I have seen the whole show a billion times but she is super radsauce.

I don't like following silly rules like don't over-accessories, I like having a big statement necklace and two other cool necklaces all at the same time.

Get ready to see my new Tunnel Vision purse glued to my shoulder all summer long! 




Wearing:
Hat- D.I. (thrift store)
Dress- Buffalo Exchange
Earrings- Buffalo Exchange
Necklaces- Charity Thrift Shop, The Parker Shoppes, and Soulmates
Bracelets- Random thrift stores and The Parker Shoppes
Rings- Thrift Stores and Urban Exchange
Socks- Target
Shoes- Vintage
Purse- Tunnel Vision

Been wearing my new Soulmates necklaces all the time I love them!!! If you have not checked out Kat from On The Ganges then you should do that right now! She just opened up a lovely little etsy shop where she sells handmade jewelry that is super fantastical! I have been meaning to put up a link to her shop on the side of my blog, but I am quite computer illiterate so I haven't figured out how to do so yet, but for real her style is fantastic and her store is great, so go show her some love!!! I mean seriously look at her radsauceness!!!

Hope everyone has a great night. I promise to not disappear again!

Love and Peace,

Small Spaces and Tie Die

Clothes have completely taken over our apartment! I am going crazy! I already took a load of almost everything that wasn't vintage to my local church thrift store, but most of the vintage is for the store, so I just have to deal until we move. Here is what I wore the other day and some pictures of all the clothes so you can understand why I am going insane.

I love how you can see Ben's shadow while he takes my pic we are super high class here haha

wearing: dress-vintage, socks- vintage, shoes- thrifted

yeah, this isn't even all of my bags...

we have two of these door hangy things this one has our jacket like things on it.

such a sad excuse of a dresser it will be so marvelous to buy a new real dresser!

scariest part of out apartment, the closet.

yeah, that is my pile of vintage to reconstruct...

oh yeah there are clothes in the kitchen.


So sorry that was super scary but I just wanted to vent about how claustrophobic I am right now. We found the perfect condo that we applied for over the weekend. If we get it then  I would have a whole room for a closet, plus a big closet in the bedroom, and an extra closet in the hall! Yeah so hopefully that will all work out!!! Yeah so... the only other thing on my mind is opening another etsy shop that has more of a specific theme to it, I'll keep you posted on that. Also having crazy hair issues lately, I have been wanting to grow my hair out for like two years but I am really bad at doing it haha. I have for real tried so many times and whenever it gets to my shoulders I go crazzzzy and chop it off with my kitchen scissors. I just for some reason hate the in-between length, I can't handle it, so I am thinking of maybe getting extensions to help me get past the middle length or I might just chop it off again. Perhaps I just need to color it, I am not sure, so the next time I post I may have different hair, so yeah that could be fun. Wow I am saying yeah and so a lot so yeah I will stop talking now.  

Love and Peace
Kelsey
