LONG BEACH FLEA MARKET NOVEMBER

Another Sunday spent at a flea market - I always feel like a kid in an enormous, dusty, candy store. Let's start this post on a wholesome note with this charming belt:

I would have gotten it except I think it was a size 50.


I love this chair...


...and this chair! Very enterprise. Take note of the painted smokers in the background.

Saw this woman and had to photograph her. I loved her look - viva mexico! That necklace is amazing too.




I love anything 60s - because having 60s costume party everyday is a lot more fun than not having it?


I also love anything western. This was a bit out of my price range haha.


I can never reiterate enough how much I love how everything is displayed at flea markets.


Pelts with Sesame Street toys? Genius!


Should have got that necklace for my caveman/hannibal lecter look...



I love those tour jackets! I want one someday. The designs are so cool.



I loved the light on the skull.



I love bones/skeletons so much. If that's wrong I don't wanna be right.


I find dioramas/models to be so compelling. I was a bit diorama deprived as a child - my school only did one. Such a shame.


I feel like this trunk possesses some kind of magical powers... or maybe it belonged to a mermaid?

Some bags...


I always see this bag, but this time I noticed it has the WWF logo on it. Strange, since I'm pretty sure it's made from real cow. I should just get it next time I go.

Shag carpet bag - reminds me of brain coral!



A goose to keep you company on those lonely nights? Kinda Norman Bates even.

Or maybe a pet cow - half the pet with none of the mess.


Some exotic items.


Umm...what?


Love this dress!!!


I love this logo! The picture, not so much. The lighting was shit under the shade.


Interesting leather jacket.


A tasteful brooch.



I love this lion jacket - pretty tacky but mostly amazing to me.


Pretty sure this is from Star Trek? Not 100% sure. Fellow nerds? Help me out?


Made away with some great (& cheap! yes!) finds that should probably be dry cleaned before they find their way onto the blog... I couldn't find my pink fur coat! Some pimps must've swung by there!

DENIM ON DENIM: ME & DAD


I realized today my dad and I both had on denim on denim looks, so I thought it'd be cool to take outfit pictures to compare how we wear the look. We also had on skeleton shirts, Ray Bans, and boots too! Great minds think alike I suppose haha!

ME


I just bought the patchwork leather hat at a vintage store last night, I can't wait to wear it with everything! I'm looking into a way to surgically attach it to my head. Worn with vintage Levis jacket, vintage Ray Ban sunglasses, my dad's old el dia de los muertos shirt, Cheap Monday jeans, belt from a flea market, and vintage calf hair boots.





DAD


My dad was wearing a vintage denim jacket, Laundry brand shirt, Levis jeans, boots and belt from a flea market, and a vintage 40's watch, and his signature Ray Ban sunglasses.


I love the details of this jacket, the buttons are so cool. I also love how one of the hands on his watch is red, cool detail.

Beautiful poop? Nice.
