black lips and stretchmarks....

(everything thrifted from head to toe except socks)

vintage black and white swimsuit, American Apparel thigh hi socks, vintage sailor captain's hat, vintage aviators, vintage black and white lace up tennis shoe boots, vintage golden block belt and vintage gold watch

Black lips and stretchmarks! So I gave birth to a 10lbs 12 oz baby boy and I don't care if it shows! I'm a proud mom! Even have MOMS RULE tattooed across my knuckles! It just tells you not everyone is perfect. I got flaws too! Anywho, I've been dying to try black lipstick. I haven't worn it since my goth days. Black is slimming cause I got huge lips. Thought they turned out pretty cute. 

Got alot of pics coming at coming! So stay tuned for more VintageVirgin!!!!

The Urban Sailor

In my hangings around New York City I found an urban sailor. I never thought that a sailor outfit could look any different than what we see during fleet week.But, It can definitely be done. The urban sailor wore a seersucker trouser with a vintage hat that projects a chill, nonchalant, relaxed aura that clearly states it's not too hot for a hat today. He paired it up with a white cotton simple v-neck (reminiscent of Michael Jackson type) t-shirts topped off with what in my opinion are "fly" kicks.

What worked for the urban sailor is that he took a slight risk when he decided to fold up his trouser cuff mainly because he appears extremely confident with what he's wearing and more importantly in his own skin.

P.S. Can you tell I have a shoe fetish?
