Im ALIVE!! After being in bed for over a week with pneumonia and a trip to the hospital I am finally out of bed! I may look like a zombie but I'm feeling a million billion times better and ready for the holidays! I can now spell pneumonia.

A Few Things...

While in bed sick the last few days with this reoccurring pneumonia I found a few things that need to make their way into my life... Some of which I may or may not have purchased while under the influence of antibiotics and NyQuil.


Stuff

Sorry for the crickets around here but ya know how it goes. Let's see how fast I can update you... The MR. and I celebrated four years of marriage on September 25th and we started a few new projects with the label and the shop that we are excited to finalize! He also released a music video with his band, Forget Your Friends, for their single, Scream Queen, and they have some killer shows coming up! I went on a mini getaway to the lovely Madonna Inn. Dressed up as Snow White for Halloween and finally watched Maleficent. Well, I think that's it... lol... Keep up on Instagram, that's where its at yo.

White After Labor Day

You know what they say... You can't wear white after Labor Day. Well, good thing I only wear black! With that... I am SO ready for Fall! Vacation time is over and it's time to get ready for the Holidays... and by Holidays I mean what is only known as 'Retail Holiday Season' ... A six month block from September 1st to March 1st jammed pack with every major holiday. Also known as, see ya in March! lol. What can I say, I love it... I mean, you either work in the industry or you don't. I'm totally ready for the hectic schedule and little down time. The MR. and I take full advantage of any down time we have, we love getting sidetracked on the weekends... Staying an extra night at our favorite hotel, searching for vintage records and clothing, diner dining, and of course, me forcing a million couples selfies on him. le sigh. Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall!

Weekends

I live for the weekends! The MR. and I work crazy hours during the week and we definitely take our down time seriously. Lately, our weekends have been just as busy as our work weeks. The MR. has been in the studio with FYF recording their new single, Scream Queen, this song holds a very special place in my heart and the emotion behind it is so overwhelming... I can't even listen to it without crying. Production on the music video begins shortly and the band will be on the road every weekend... Come out to one of the shows and say Hi! We have some big news to announce on our record label, Oktoheart, this summer as well as some exciting new things coming to Hella Vintage!! We have been on the road listening, watching, finding new music, bands and scouring California for the best vintage treasures.... It's going to be a great Summer! XO

Here are a few snapshots from some of our weekends on the road... Bottomless mimosas on the beach with my mom for her birthday followed by miles of denim and taxidermy... Just the way I like it!

8 Years Later...

oh em gee! I can't believe it has been 8 years already... It feels just like yesterday that the MR. sent me a friend request on Myspace. That's right, we totally met on Myspace! It was May 31, 2006.... The  MR., who went by Ponyboy Curtis back then, sent me, who went by Jane Fonda, a message saying that he liked the song on my profile. I replied with 'that's it' and the rest is history! We dated long distance for over two years and I finally moved in with him shortly after that. We were married on September 25, 2010. I don't know how I got so lucky! XO

Lately

I sure am lucky that I love to be busy... the past few weeks have been nothing short of chaotic. Work has been crazy busy... We can hardly keep our Kimonos in stock! If you see something you love let me know we sell out fast! The MR. had surgery and recovered just in time for the FYF show dates. I've been stocking up on some major vintage pieces that will be hitting the shop soon... be on the lookout for a vintage shop update. We said goodbye to our sweet bird Cheese, we were so blessed to be inspired by her sweet little soul for so many years. Until next time... See ya on Instagram! XO
