New Etsy Items

I have new items on my Etsy store.

 I love vintage and I know many people do as well. I think it's a budget fashionista's duty to share her love for vintage in affordable prices. The pieces I sell depends on how much I find the items. If you have any suggestions or want to see a certain size, please feel free to contact me at mylacelliott@gmail.com. Thanks.

I Rock Pink

Well fuchsia really....I love all the Jeffrey Campbell Litas. I want them in every color but I am not going to break bank for them. I own a couple of JC and luckily Lita look a likes are coming out.

You can pair them with everything from skirts and skinny jeans to shorts and even dress pants. If my only allowed me, I would wear graphic tees to work. lol.

Halloween weekend

I am a little late blogging about Halloween but since I posted this in my chictopia blog, might as well blog about it here.

This Halloween, we drove to Virginia Beach, VA to party with our favorite couple friends, Angie and Justin. They moved to VA this year and since we partied with them for Halloween 2010, we wanted continued our tradition this year. It was a two day party since Angie had her house party on Friday and we all went out Saturday. Our Friday costume, we decided to be a spider man family. We initially got our dog, Titan’s costume first so we revolve our costume around him. It was too cute not too. Lol  Since Angie’s party was on a Friday, we didn’t want to be costume-less on Saturday when we he hit the bars. I also didn’t want to spend a lot of money since we didn’t plan on having two costumes this year. So the husband and I brainstorm on what we can be for a cheap price and came up with a plan, a circus master and her circus freak. He went as a bearded lady and I his circus master. We went to a thrift store and put our costumes together for less than $100. Most of my costume was already in my closet so I really saved on having DIY costume. Hope you all enjoy the pictures.
