    Do you "pay it forward"?

    Free-boxes are great! I don't have a car anymore either, so I usually do that. I currently live in a big dorm hall, and I just scrap up everything I don't want, put it in a labeled box, and leave it in the hallway. Craigslist also has a free stuff section.

    'gaudy' eBay Photos?

    What an interesting inference. Most of the Ebay sellers I know who do that just use their friends as models.

    'gaudy' eBay Photos?

    The 80's-ed styles are meant to appeal to the trendy ladies and demonstrate the versatility of a piece, so shoppers know that they can incorporate it into their own (usually modern) wardrobes. Most people who wear vintage do not wear period-correct ensembles. As long as it doesn't detract from...

    Who does BPAL?

    Yes, they're wonderful! I'm also a fan of Arcana soaps and perfumes.

    Wallflower pt.2

    I started swing dancing when I was 17. I found the classes through my city's alternative weekly newspaper.

    Do you "pay it forward"?

    I love Freecycle! It's pretty much just an organized, bigger version of what I've been doing for years. I got my parents into it recently, since they're selling their house and thinning through there things.

    What are you wearing today??

    No work today! I changed into this after my yoga class so I could take the scary 66 bus to the grocery store without being gawked at. Sunglasses -- Dior. Earrings -- they're airplanes! I found them at a stripper store ages ago. Shirt -- "ATOMS Wrestling Club." It's a thrifted kids'...

    What are you wearing today??

    Since I'm in the middle of finals and a short-staffed period at work, I've been dressing mainly for comfort lately...and no, I'm not going to wear my pretty petticoats when I'm scrubbing toilets and lifting boxes. I've also been spending way too much time on hel-looks.com. I wore this outfit...

    If you said you looked like one celebrity from the Golden Era...

    Haha, I see it! How funny.

    You Walk Wrong

    I doubt that Demonia shoes would sell their products in that type of outlet, just because they're more subculture-oriented. Most of their stuff is targeted towards the punk/goth/rockabilly scene, though they do sell their shoes through sites like Babygirl Boutique. I got mine on Ebay, since I...

    Camp. Irony. Naive. Old-Fashioned.

    I like funky vintage irony. And camp. *hides*

    You Walk Wrong

    Haha! Wow. I think I still have mine at my parents' house, but again, they're huge on me. :( I also have a pair of secondhand Pumas that are really great, as far as sneakers go.

    You Walk Wrong

    Mostly for non-Fedora Lounge-approved political reasons, in addition to avoiding the support of sweatshop labor.

    You Walk Wrong

    I'm a big fan of Kung Fu mary janes, though I don't buy them [first-hand] anymore, since they're made in China. The cheapest ones, like the shoes below, are the best. They're also $4 a pop. The soles are very flexible. I tried to replace my embroidered Kung Fu shoes with the USA-made...

    You Walk Wrong

    Martial arts shoes. I used those for Wushu, though they were too big for me (the sensei insisted that I needed the extra toe-room). I paid about $30 for them.
