Happy Halloween/Samhain/Dia de los Muertos! I hope you all have a fabulous one. I’m getting ready to watch Coraline for last minute costume inspiration, and tonight we’re going to our neighbor’s little shindig and then might walk around downtown to see the sights. Maybe when we get home we’ll watch Ghostbusters. Then tomorrow, there’s a [...]

New Vintage in the Shop!
Click to visit!
And these are priced to sell, as after the weekend in Missouri we’re a bit…what’s that British word? skint, haha. There’s a gorgeous 50’s dress I need to list as well, but I wasn’t happy with the photos we’d got (had to have my neighbor & her daughter model things that were too [...]
Won’t Get Fooled Again: Counterfeit Melissa Shoes
I’m not sure if I posted about it or not, but a while back in August, I won a pair of Vivienne Westwood for Melissa shoes off eBay. I was pretty psyched because I got them quite a bit lower than retail & at the time, there weren’t really any US based retailers that had [...]
October 28th, 2009Marvelous Monday!
I typed this up Sunday morning & as of your reading this, we’re on our way back to Texas. It’s been a bit of a whirlwind weekend (very exhausting!), but fun nonetheless. Anyways! Here you go!
Jen’s What About Wednesday post this week was about comparing yourself to others & how it can go wrong. I [...]
October 26th, 2009Saturday Shoe Lust: Wedge Edition
Wedges & especially wedge boots seem to be everywhere this season; here’s two of my favorites:
These ankle boots, for lack of a better term, are gorgeous. I love the stud detailing & the huge heel. I’m not sure if I’d actually buy and wear them, if for no other reason than they seem to be [...]
Decline Designs: State of the Blog
So, it’s been a little over a year since I started writing here. I’ve been taking stock things over the last month or so and I thought a post about it was in order!
When I started the website, I really intended it to be a face for my online store. Obviously, things have changed since [...]
Have you got swagger?
I have a confession to make. One that could probably warrant my banning from all of fashion-blogdom.
I don’t really like the Sartorialist.
I know. I know! The amount of fawning over that particular website makes me feel like a true heretic sometimes. I can’t help it, I just feel like the vast majority of the [...]
Marvelous Monday!
Very short this week. I am normally very on top of my Google Reader and as of this minute, it has nearly 200 items unread, so that is probably a contributing factor to the lack of links! Either way, enjoy the very few there is…
Sooooper excited because this weekend I’m going back home! Yay! We’re [...]
October 19th, 2009Saturday Shoe Lust: Boots Edition
With the onset of fall (although it’s beginning to look like fall will never hit Austin!), I always start looking at and lusting over boots. I’m not sure what it is in particular about boots, but they bring out the worst of my shoe fascination. Or the best of it, if you want to talk [...]
October 17th, 2009Everyone Hail to the Pumpkin Song
Halloween is definitely my favorite holiday, like so many other people out there! I’m a bit late to the game with this post, but there’s still plenty of time to come up with a kick-ass costume. Want some ideas? Here’s my three favorite costume ideas for this year:
V for Vendetta by declinedesigns
I love the idea [...]
