I decided to do the 30 secrets thing, because I think it is an amazing idea. However, I have a twist; rather than calling mine secrets, they will be called confessions, because when I tell you my secret, it is no longer a secret.
The first confession I will make, is that I am a label whore. When I was skinnier, I totally had the best collection of high end jeans, like seven for all mankind (which I am wearing in the picture). I knew that they weren't actually "better" than other jeans, but for some reason, buying them and wearing them made me feel good because of the brand.
The wallet in my pocket is a wallet that I bought from Gucci in London on my first trip there back in 2000. I had just graduated college, and was pretty damn broke, but being the label whore I am, I bought it anyway. It is something that I still have and treasure, because owning these labeled things, for whatever reason, makes me feel a little better about things.
I am not as much of a label whore as I used to be, but it is definitely still in there, waiting to get back out again; perhaps when I lose some weight, and can get back into those designer jeans...
It may not be immediately obvious, but there is a Slight Horse Theme to this completely thrifted outfit. Note the horsey straps on the 'Ungaro' skirt which is repeated in the scarf.
Still playing around in processing. :-) Totally didn't plan on doing this to this shot.
And b/c I'm heading home this weekend, to where I grew up, I thought that this song was fitting. My brother got me hooked on it.
Because, people, while I may be a high-maintenance labelwhore, I'm still just a small-town girl driven by rock music, with some honky-tonk in the mix. In case you were wondering.
Mwah, TGIF! No internets for three whole days for me...whatever will I do?
I'm becoming Such a Label Whore. This rather Masculine Wool zip-up cardigan is a 'Pringle'. I bought it at the thrift shop. The reason it is rather Masculine is because it's Menswear. The Uber-Nanna woolen skirt & the Italian leather boots are also thrifted. The earrings were a gift & the beads have been kicking around for years.

The planner was a gift from Damian for finishing my first quarter of college with a 4.0 (something tells me he'd have given it to me either way, he'd already bought it). The rest I overpaid for myself. But come on, it's an OUTLET store. I almost couldn't afford NOT to!! (right....?)
