Getting Organized

011

013

015

They say your room is a reflection of your life, and right now everything is all over the place. Anyone who really knows me knows what a huge slob I am, so one of my resolutions for 2012 is to get more organized. I decided to stop by Bed Bath & Beyond to pick up a couple of items to help get me started. Next up I need to save up for a dresser, which i desperately need.

Hope everyone has a happy and organized 2012 :)

The Eve of Christmas Eve

108

The Eve of Christmas Eve was very interesting. Right after work I headed to the secret Santa exchange dinner for the organization I work at. It was fun seeing people from work in a different setting. Elizabeth was my secret Santa and hit the nail on the head with the boots got me. I love them. I wore them when I went out that night (in which I got my wallet stolen, but that's another story) and they were so comfortable!

Seeing as I didnt grow up celebrating Christmas and am not a big fan of the consumerism aspect of it, I do love the getting-together part of it. Hope everyone is enjoying their holidays.

Find(s) of the day: Earrings

013

Found all of these earrings except for the anchor ones (they're from Good Stuff Thrift) at Thrift Town today. Usually when I get to Thrift Town all the earrings are gone but today they had a lot left. Aren't they lovely? They range from 99¢-$3.

I have been living in this awesome wolf sweater I got at Goodwill last week

Find(s) of the day: Esate Sale

022

027

Found the awesome saddle bag and vintage compact mirror at an estate sale a few blocks away from my house. This man had a huge collection of saddle bags, guitars, cameras, clocks and cowboy boots among other things. He purchased the saddle bag on Telegraph Ave in Berkeley in the 70's. How cool is that? It was only $10, something like that would probably cost no less than $30 at a thrift store plus you get to know the history of the item you're purchasing! I'll have to make sure I stop by more estate sales in the future.

Peter Pan collar

056

Isn't the collar lovely? I can't get over how much I love this blouse.

I went to Thrift town today and found some really awesome stuff. There was a reoccurring theme of polka dots in my purchases today that I shall make a post about later this week. Now I'm going to watch The League and go to sleep. Goodnight!

Best Coast played a free show at a windows phone event in San Francisco yesterday. Fernando and I had to wait 2 hours in the freezing cold but we made it in!

la mission

Went to the mission today with Cristina and her sisters. We stopped by Thrift town but since it was almost closing we didn't get to look around much and a lot of things were already gone. Next time I gotta get there earlier, although i did get a shirt and some shoes. I'll post them later :)
