Happy DecemFUR!

 

Meet my first vintage faux fur cape

It was purchased for $14.99 from a local thrift shop.

 

 

 It makes me feel glamorous and wealthy! *HAHA*

Funny what a old furry cape can do...

This was my outfit worn to my Grandmother's for a family dinner.

 

 I even threw on some leopard leggings I purchased from Forever 21

You gotta keep your legs warm on those chilly days.

 

 

 This brown dress is a handmade vintage dress also a thrift store score. The whole thing was sewn with a zig zag stitch. It cost me $1.

I think I was looking at something going on inside the house.

 

HAPPY DECEMFUR *ahem* December!

The Royal Coconut Frock on Friday

*Hello Hello*

I have been waiting to show you all this dress.

I purchased it for $1 on a color tag sale.

*Scream*

But first ... let me show you the outerwear.

I found this cape/robe coat at Salvation army last Fall. I remember it clearly because I thought it was amazing and wanted to try it on.

Once on Mr. Coco told me it looked like a Wizard cloak *LOL*

Okay so maybe it does look a little wizard-ish but it's still amazing and I had to have it. It looks to be from the 60's and is
Bouclé fabric.

I wanted to take pics outside but we got the biggest dump of snow I have seen since the winter of 2010 and I did NOT want to get this dress wet.

The dress is deadstock still complete with tag.
The Original price for it was $168.00
(That was a big chunk of change back in the day)

Tag on my hip & Jersey scowling at any people that even think of getting close to his Mama! In case you were wondering... I did NOT ask Jersey to sit there.
After his many years with me he knows what a photo shoot is and likes to pose from time to time. *Seriously I am not joking*

The tag is still on the dress because I will probably sell it. It's too pretty to sit around and not be danced in. *Tag says:* (Dance Originals)

~* Inside tag *~

~* Hang tag *~

I left to stop the self timer on the camera... APPARENTLY Jersey was not done.

*heheheh*

BANGS & Things I found to keep me warm

"And there goes about 2 inches!" My Mother hates when I cut my bangs short. Every single time I do it as soon as she See's me she says "You cut your bangs again....." Long bangs look really good on some people. But I REALLY don't think they do on me. I have a round face (Like Pumpkin round) And when my bangs start to cover my eyebrows... I think it makes my face look ROUNDER and weird.

"I HATE IT!"

"So here's to you Mom!"

*Hehehe* I also told her... When I have her grand kids (In the future) If I have a little girl. She will have bangs JUST like this. *MUAHAH muahaha*

Oh yea the point to this picture is the suede jacket. Also was from the bag sale so I would have paid under $1 for it.

It is my first suede jacket

So see these shoes? WELL THEY ARE DEADLY! They are one size too big.. but I stuck them in my bag sale bag to put up on E-bay. When you walk in these puppies you are only walking on the front pads of your feet that are just behind your toes.

*Meow* *Falls over and cracks ankle*
(Didn't happen but COULD have)

Vintage winter bonnet hat $1
(I love this and want to wear it in the snow)
I found the Faux fur white coat two days later. It was found at a store that has dollar tag sales. And what do you know it was the right color of tag.

FURRY BALLS!

Member my weird lobster photo from last post??
Well this is what I was hiding.
A vintage wool tartan cape / poncho
I also stuffed it into my bag sale bag... with the shoes and suede jacket.

I bought the huge faux fur hat on Sunday for $1.99
I wonder what the people that drove by me while I was taking these pics thought?! *eheheh* I had some weird looks!

Suede boots were purchased last fall for $5

TA-DA It's reversible!

Does anyone know what is in my hand? It is one of the things I found on the weekend. Will have more pics of it soon.

Mr. Coconut and I
(He's wearing a 1960's shirt I found him for $1 and he picked out the hat himself for $12 It was dead stock so I suppose it was worth it.)

*I VANT to suck YER BLOOD*

Robin Hood wanna be!

The End

"It's FOF soon and my dress is wrinkly"
