Favorite Thing(s) This Week!

So I mentioned that I’ve been looking for a varsity/letterman jacket, which has been pretty difficult.  Not that there aren’t jackets to be found, they’re just all a men’s XXL or in really bad condition, or like, $150.00.  A couple of weeks ago, I was foraging around in Value Village and decided to check out the children’s section.  In the boys’ jackets rack I found this little doozy, which fits me perfectly (it’s not REALLY a full-out letterman jacket, but super, wicked nonetheless):  

  
I don’t think it’s a boy’s jacket… I just think the dude who owned it was a small dude.  But COME ON – Acadia Axemen?  With the patch of the hooded axeman on the front?  WICKED-cool.  To make it even BETTER, when I looked in the pocket before throwing it in the wash, I found an original receipt from 1979.  Like, WHAAA?  Awesome.  
 

Anyhoo, I also stopped by a vintage sale this Saturday and met Shawn (I think that’s the spelling??) who used to buy for the Black Market.  She was selling some amazing stuff, but I only had $40 bucks on me, so I had to settle for my favorites.

 

I will say that I almost plotzzed when I saw the Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band t-shirt.  It has a big funky stain on the front, but I’ll see if the Shout can make short work of it.  If not, I’m turning that bad boy into a crop-top.  

 
P-Hops and I also got matching 80′s “California” crop tops.  Zack Morris would be allllll up in my grill with this bad boy on:  

 

Ummmmm how cool are these shoes?  SO COOL.  That’s how cool.  

  

Additionally, the boots are sicketatingly awesome… what with the stacked heel, suede detailing and asymmetrical cut.  BABY!  

 

Sigh.  I need to stop.  My closet is busting at the seams.
