the ultimate good finds post

after anthony and i moved into our new apt here in the LES, i wanted to do a panorama of it to show my parents and also so i could have documentation of yet another place ive lived in. i like to try to keep pictures of all the places ive lived.

so i finally got around to it, 2 months later... and here it is! i posted it on my flickr site too so i could make little notes of all my good finds. (this is what happens when anthony leaves me home alone!!)

Me too me too!

When Crystal posts, I want to post too. I looked through my sack of goodies from the last Housing Works outing and said "what the effffff" about three times. Haha. Random finds this time. All the good good stuff I am too lazy to take pics of (Gaultier pant/skirt, little kid Lord and Taylor red robe, printed houndstooth pencil skirt) so you'll have to settle with the following:

Little kids petticoat. Housing Works Warehouse, $1.

Bright blue cotton cumberbund. Housing Works Warehouse, $1.

Linen with black trim pocketbook. Housing Works Warehouse, $1.

housing works fiasco continues

so mich and i just couldn't stay from the housing works warehouse sale. i think we've already been back twice since the inital post. we are slowly running out of steam, though. there is really only so many pairs of thongs you can accidentally stick your pinky through before you just get too tired. but the finds have still been a-plenty!

i liked this military jacket, when i came home i found out its actually from a high end boutique in the west village. apparently julianne moore and gretchen mol like to shop there.

annelore jacket, housing works warehouse sale, $1


a handmade blue knit hat, a nice vintage woven scarf, housing works warehouse sale, $1


a vintage beaded coin purse and a velvet little purse with gold strap, housing works warehouse sale, $1

i also managed to finally get a print framed. mich gave me this tiffany bozic print for my birthday about 3 years ago and it sat between 2 cardboard pieces for a very long time. i finally decided one day to take it to the framer and managed to talk him down from $120 to $80. yahoo!

custom frame and matte for print, framers on 23rd st, $80
