Always Gone With Le Wind (PIC UPDATE!)

Seriously, how long has it been since my last post?!

Geebuz, life sure does happen doesn’t it? I’ve been so busy, I haven’t had any time to post anything! However, I never forgot to take random pics throughout the month specifically FOR posting 🙂

This will be just a photo update without all of the long explanations piece by piece! (Okay I lied. There will be some descriptions lol)  This is just a PARTIAL update, only because this was a draft for another 2 weeks lol.

Food

Kagura-Chesapeake, VA

Hokkaido-Norfolk, VA

Ribs, Wings, And Things-Va Beach, VA

For a few weeks, I went on a health kick and made and ate Lentil Soup like cray. If anyone wants my recipe, LMK!

Shoppage

Obviously, TJ Maxx lol. I’ve never seen the purse holder portion of the cart. Pretty dope!

Goodwill-Va Beach,Va

Damn I wanted this shirt, BAD. Too fat -.-

Picked this up for le bf. Pretty nice to come by tactical gear while thrifting 🙂 It’s his new range shirt 😀

lol I wondered the whole time if this was bootleg

UGH! Upset as FAWKKKK about this! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Love Spell from Victoria’s Secret! I passed up on this thinking it was open. Lady comes after me, buys it and it was BRAND NEW. Fml

Charlotte Russe quarter sleeve

SpaceGirlz jeans-Brand new for 4 bucks

Barefeet Shoes-Norfolk, VA

I’ve been looking for black liquid leggings for a lonnnng ass time. Finally! Don’t mind the ugly feets

Nails

Of course these were just the only ones pictured. As everyone knows (and don’t take this the wrong way), I have nail ADD. I’m pretty sure in the past month that I haven’t posted, I’ve probably done my nails 20+ times.

Random

Sterling Meadows-VA Beach, VA

Hershey got her hurr and nails did here.
Range time for suppressor testing 🙂

I’ve also been going to the gym (Planet Fitness) every other day…well unless I’ve done something strenuous already, then that constitutes me not going. Call me a slacker, idgaf. I’ve been on my journey for a month and a half so far. I’ll get there eventually. I’m not quitting just because it’s going slow. Call me a fatass once I’ve stopped.

The top (Head) And shorts (Jockey) came from TJ Maxx in that above picture with the cart. I usually wear Nikes or Reeboks  to work out but you see those purple and grey kicks? They were $14 at Walmart (Danskin) and have been working just fine. For you sneaker heads who are probably like “OMFG EW WALMART SHOES”…..BITCH PLEASE STFU. You act like all of the things you own are SOOOO different. Little do people know but some places (Factories/Manufacturers) actually make all the same shit and just mark em with different labels so I don’t wanna hear/read it. *Takes a deep breath* kay I’m good.That right there, is me at work . I was on my way to make something with One Wrap…did I want to take a whole bunch of shit with me and possibly drop everything between my pudgy fingers? Nope. This is how I deal with some thangs. One Wrap weave stuck on me FTMFW!

So that’s it for now people! I’ve had a little more time for thrifting recently so I’ll post up soon. I’ve taken another part time job so I haven’t had much time for shit. I now have the new Galaxy Tab 2 7″ so maybe I’ll be able to post faster without having to get on the comp and do all kindsa thangs that’ll just sidetrack me (Gaming, Steam, TeamSpeak, FB, you know, everything)

For all of you who haven’t unfollowed me (or just haven’t gave a damn) Thank you!

Happy blogging in le blogosphere!

Storage Wars, Thrift Store Hopping,Oil Changing and Sushi

On Saturday, we had a purrrty thrifty day. Our day with our friends started off at a storage unit community garage sale.

9 in the morning and it was cold as heyal >.< The following will be pics throughout the day.

STORAGE UNIT THRIFTING

My friend and I spent a few minutes verifying if they were real or not but said fuck it and left that storage unit lol

Buncha surplus stuff that was scorable.

The boys got sea bags and gas masks at cheaper than surplus store prices 🙂

My feets were so cold >.< However, I did get a few compliments 😉 God, I hope that lady didn’t think I was stalking her or anytthing haha

DAV THRIFT STORE

A new DAV Thrift Store opened up in Chesapeak, Virginia near Butts Station and we were super duper excited to go. I scored so many awesome finds. All of the finds I got will be at the end!

Everyone is “poppin’ tags” these days

thanks to Macklemore & friends that is. I’m pretty sure people have gone through the motions with venturing out to the second-hand stores even more now since “Thrift shop” came out. I must admit…not long before I discovered that song did I start coming out admitting I got my wonderful D&G sweater from my local Goodwill. That’s right, I was embarrassed to admit where I’ve gotten some of the items that willingly embrace my body.

As a kid, my mom would drag me to yard sales and thrift stores and I’ve always begged my mom to leave me home or let me stay in the car…however my mom never let that happen. She has always went to the mall for most of her clothes, however when she comes home with random things, I automatically know exactly where it came from. I even remember telling my mom “Even if you give me $1,000,000, I will NEVER EVER EVER go to a thrift store!” Ohhhhh the budding angst of youth. Now that I’m 21…I can’t count how many times I’ve regret missing a good thrift trip with my mom. From now on, I’ve figured it’s not THAT much different than buying clothes from the mall. I mean, how many times has a super sweaty and non showered someone tried on those sexy skinny jeans on the rack at the mall? Even if you do think about it…you wash it and wear it. However with my TS finds, I double up the soap and do a super wash lol.

The economy sucks. I don’t care if you’re rich or not, yes, the economy sucks at the moment. I don’t remember the last time I went to the mall and spent $20 on 10 or more clothing items, even on a sale WHILE helping a good cause. Yep, my mom’s thrifting gene found it’s way of showing out of me.

Bandolino peep-toe heels-$2! Saw a USED pair on ebay with worse condition selling for around $20
