it's a brown thing

You've seen these thrifted pants here before.
My blouse is also thrifted. I like that it's brown lace.



...moving, rippling with ornately patterned puddles: a diamond, a tapestry, star-crossed lovers, a wrinkle in time. It was beautiful... from book Love Will Tear Us Apart by Sarah Rainone


My mom made the necklace & bracelet you see.

My mom also made the middle silver
 and brown bracelet.
When I bought this thrifted purse,
I didn't notice the Tommy Hilfiger  label.
I wonder if it's real or fake. 


Here's some recent art my guy and I saw.

Here's my art journal pages
 using collage, paint, colored pencils drawings.
The words on the right page are lyrics
from the song "Wounded" by Third Eye Blind.

...But how could I have expected them to remember that? They weren't like me, marking every occasion not with words spoken, but with the music that drowned them out...

  1. I also have a thrifted Tommy bag that I'm not sure is real, but I like it and use it! And yes, it's definitely not summery in my neck of the woods!

  5. well, the logo/name looks pretty real but the bag doesn't remind me of TH though maybe it's a vintage one from many many years ago.. it should have signs inside the bag as well. oh and your top reminds me of one I own. it's also brown and kind of lacy :)

  14. Hi Teddi!
    Thanks for stopping by my site and leaving a kind comment.
    I love the look of your blog and your awesome jewelry! The leather braided bracelet is also super cool.
    I'm a big thrifter too so it's fun to see what others are drawn too when they share their finds!
