i wore.... a color????

Dress- Astral Boutique/Skull Flats - eBay/Necklace - Forever 21

I saw this dress on Etsy a few months ago, and I had to have it. It makes me feel like a piece of candy! I'm obsessed with polyester scooter dresses from the 60s, and I can pretty much guarantee the only times you'll see me wearing color will involve a cute mod dress. I will say though, there is a time and a place for a dress like this, and maybe day tripping in Pittsburgh in 87 degree weather wasn't that time? So, learn from my very sweaty mistake, people! Polyester wasn't meant for summer!

\\Alejandro and I went to Pittsburgh in search of comics and toys and junk, so we thought we'd balance it out by doing a grown up thing and looking at furniture for our future abode.

The dude in his natural habitat, aka: surrounded by comics and vintage toys.
I think he ended up finding maybe one cool 60s monster toy, and I found a few rare VHS tapes and two vintage halloween decorations to add to my collections. We had fun, despite not coming home with armloads of stuff. However, we came to the sad realization that our future home is already full of junk and we haven't even moved in yet! Anyone else in a hoarder "collector" couple?
