I have seriously been waiting for this date to post this picture that I took during SXSW.

It's an awesome t-shirt I saw at an awesome venue on the east side.  Keeping it real :)

this is what I got for today.

whew...

I am in serious post SXSW recovery. So many bands, so many beers, so much food from stands...so much fun and music and not enough sleep. I have some random pics to post, but I have some serious novel hunt store work to do. The site is being totally renovated along with some new inventory to post up!

SO, for now here are a couple of pictures I took at a show in Houston that my hubby's band played. The venue is called Super Happy Fun Land and it is a complete artist's haven. I got to color and look at art and check out some bands and see the craziest Raggedy Ann Doll collection (of which I couldn't even take a picture of...it just would never do). This place and these two pieces of artwork in particular started my week off in such a great way. TTFN.

spring is on the way...

So, I was perusing Style.com last night and picked a random designer's spring collection to look through for fun. I love doing that, especially when I find some cool stuff! Here are a few sweet pics from the Erdem SP10 collection.

I really like black intermixed with bright florals. I think my favorites are the first and third...they speak to my inner goth. Because I enjoyed these pieces so much, I then checked out his SP09 collection...and what I found was even more awesome!

No black, but I LOVE the 70's influence... especially the second piece! It makes me want to frolic in the grass and sing! Thanks Style.com for all the wonderful inspiration!

Using a doll as a model is fun!

Check out cool Dynamite Girl photos by other people some time.

The end.
