Gold Digger

It has been a long time since the sis and I have posted anything. This is not because we have not been buying things, cause we definitely have. I don't know about Crystal, but for me, it's mostly because the things that I have been purchasing do not fall into the $1 category of money spending and I'm afraid my mom will read this and get mad at me for dropping a lot of cash on something even if it was a great deal. Also, I can't divulge all purchases or else everyone will know where I got everything and how much I spend on it.

ANYWAY.

Aside from the crazy spending, I got two goodies this past weekend. My friend took me to this flea market type thing on 25th street between 6th and 7th Ave. I just looked it up and it's called The Garage (it's located on two floors of an indoor parking garage) and is open on Saturdays and Sundays. This place is INSANE and is totally my new favorite place to go scouring for goodies. There are hundreds of booths set up, each completely covered with vintage items, from books to jewelry to clothing to furniture to artwork. It's amazing. Anyway, I think I could definitely spend hours in there just rummaging through stuff but unfortunately I got there late so I didn't have too much time. I was able to pick up the following beauties though:

Puslar clasp watch in gold. $5. The Garage, NY, NY.

Sharp elastic-band watch in gold. $5. The Garage, NY, NY.

I LOVE watches. The first one is nice cause I like wearing dainty watches as bracelets and I had recently lost the one I bought in Atlanta. The second one is great cause I've been in the market for a big metal man's watch but haven't been able to find something that will wrap around my wrist nicely. This one has the masculine cut but is still feminine and it fits great.

The pictures are kind of shitty cause my cell phone camera doesn't capture much detail.
