Plate Collection

So, for everyone that looks at me like I'm medicated every time I mention my "plate collection" and the "plate amoeba" THIS IS WHAT I MEAN!!! I'm trying to collect plates, so that one day I can do this! Hello! Awesome!

Also, if you'd like to donate a cute, unused plate to the cause, you are more than welcome to do so! (so far my plate tally is 2...but I'm trying, dammit!)

Parachute Jacket..literally.

I just saw this on NOTCOTURE. Christopher Raeburn makes jackets from re-deployed military parachutes! COOLES.THING.EVER! This guys is known for his use of fabrics sourced from de-commissioned military stock. His biography is on the site, so check it out!

Why theme presents are AWESOME

So, today is my 22nd Birthday 'vomit', and I arrived home from work this morning to find this GIANT gift bag on my bed!

And this is what it said...

Already funny...so the first thing I pulled out was this bottle of wine picked out by the Kristen Green.

Next were the bath products from Lush. Best.Bathing.Supplies.EVER! All natural, hand made, can you get any better??? The answer is no...not unless you rubbed a hippie on you.

AAAAND NOOOOOOWWW THE MAAAIIIN EVEEENT!!!

Yes ladies and gents, it is a rubber duckie vibrator!

I am very clean and happy!

Thank you Staisha, Kristen, and Rachel! I love you!

Wearin' o' the green...

This is my green bag that I am madly in love with...

Now...check out this article from last Sunday's Globe...I swear, I didn't even KNOW green bags were cool...so much for originality ;)

Cuc?

Cucumber my mother gave me in relation to my microwave.

Vegetable or phallic joke? You be the judge...

Love outfit...again with the Sartorialist...

Scarf, tights, layers, GIANT luggage brown bag, booties...any takers as to why I LOVE this outfit...anyone...Bueller???

Cats are gross.

This is Atticus... seemingly harmless, yes?

This is the surprise Atticus left for me on my computer cable...

...rage.

Reasons my mom is awesome...

Suitcase!

This is my first antique buy EVER, and I'm extremely happy with it! I got it at this great antique store in Townsend called Hobart's. Its humongous suitcase that looks like its probably from the 1920's (although I actually have no idea, so if any of you know anything about antique luggage, please correct me...)

LOOK HOW AWESOME IT IS!!!

I was thinking that once I get it to stop smelling like old people and musty basements I could use it for blanket storage in my future living room!

My favorite part of this suitcase is definitely the super old labels from traveling excursions. This thing has been to far more places than I have.

I love it SO much, and it only set me back like $40...TOTALLY worth it! Next time I go back to Hobart's, I'm getting this fabulous old bicycle ad print I found...I wish I were rich.

In Love <3

I just bought this, and I'm in LOVE!...just thought I'd share.
