fringe sherpa bag-handmade vintage (fairfax flea market)
shorts-vintage levis
thermal ribbed shirt-thrift store
leopard boots-vintage
scarf-vintage

just arrived in Tokyo....thank god! China was a bit brutal..especially alone with no proper internet!  I  can finally update with these old pics though I did try to update there (blogger is banned in China) with no success...I guess I'm just not hacker material

how lovely is this bag?  The sherpa part is so soft and buttery! I got it from the crazy looking Russian guy who re-works vintage leathers/furs...if you frequent the fairfax flea market enough, you know who I'm talking about!!
 Love this vintage 70's thermal too and am especially obsessed with the ribbing on the cuffs and neck.  I originally found it for Eric but it's just too good...

China was crrrraaazzyy....I have to admit, it was VERY lonely to be there by myself.  I didn't think it would be that bad, considering I got to eat a lavish breakfast buffet everyday (hmmm love buffets...)  BUT after 14 days, french toast and made-to-order omelets just didn't do anything for me anymore! I needed someone to talk to! wah wah wah....
There was a typhoon for the first couple of days, and walking through high speed wind/rain with a million samples plus not being able to get a taxi was NOT FUN!!
but
THANK GOD for gypsy rickshaws that beat traffic!

a little vid of my rickshaw ride


yayyyy for tokyoooo!!! then I get to come home!!!

oh and to see coverage of the show Eric styled in NY, go to Karen's blog
