beam me up, vintage.


Nothing says "I'm hot and don't give a fuck" like a good vintage t-shirt or sweatshirt. Although...a chic with caked on orange makeup and hot pink Juicy sweats at the grocery store with intentionally messy hair and too much poppin lip gloss in one of those fake Urban vintage tees (
haaaaaachewwwwww Calabasas), not so much.

Goodwill and Jet Rag are generally my go to's for those snuggleicious vintage tee soft finds (by the way - who in their right mind gets rid of those?) but as of late I've been stepping up my game with Nasty Gal's hand selected variety (taking big risks on the softness, I know. Beauty is pain, beaaaaaaaaauty is paiiiin).

I'm dyingggggggg to go play in the Nasty Gal warehouse. Can you simply imagine all the gems? Seriously, close your eyes, center yourself, take a deep breathe and imagine.

Pause.

Ok, open!

If that wasn't internet vintage fashion blog euphoria or something, someone show me what is?

Namaste.

Ger, you're my favorite for posts like this. =D

That would be euphoria. I don't want to imagine. The threat of an opposite reality is much too scary.

I appreciate her choice of rocking the sweatshirt in a different way. However, if she did not go to Princeton, nor works for the Uni., Poser comes to mind.
