Never-ending FUNDS....

okay, so i guess you don't need never-ending funds for these items i'm about to show you, 'cause for how cool they are, they are priced unbelievably well! i guess if i could, i would buy one of each for all my friends and family. that's maybe where the endless money would come in handy.
but enough of my explaining. i bring to you just a sliver of my absolute favorite items on ETSY...

CALLOOHCALLAY
does some of the most mind-blowing things with vintage buttons and i'm a sucker for pendants. i'm not even posting my fav for fear someone will buy it. i plan on purchasing it after i post this blog

LOOKBOOK WHATbook????

sooooo, i joined http://www.lookbook.nu/ after noelle of http://www.xenotees.etsy.com/ convinced me to do so. i am glad she did. there is a wealth of fantastic photography of people all across the world just being themselves and having fun doing it. the last thing i need is another online addiction but when it comes to photography and stylin' it up with your own flavor i just canNOT say no!
here are my 4 "LOOKS" i've posted so far
as well as my lookbook link:

Time takes it all

it seems i get on here when i'm all worn out....
and now i'm quoting the most random of authors for me

"Time takes it all. Whether you want it to or not, time takes it all away, time bares it away. And in the end, there is only darkness. Sometimes we find others in that darkness, and sometimes we lose them there again."
+Stephen King+
time takes in red
lately i keep running into roads
i read about them
i think about them
i dream about them
and i know that in the end there isn't darkness
but sometimes it feels as such
red protection 81
and this red umbrella isn't protecting me from anything.....
you know that saying,
there is nothing to fear but fear itself
i want to pack the past up tight. bury it.
hands in the sands
but my little hands aren't capable
not even 3 pairs of them.
so can't we just kick up out feet
throw back our heads in the grass
lay side by side
and walk this journey together?
letting go
why is it that people have to leave?

sNeakeR GeeKs.....

yes, we are in love with our cool sneakers
with our artistic routines, our bizarre sleeping schedule, our lists...
but her focus and her joy, they are contagious

where would i be without this beautiful friend,
without this stunning shattering light hitting her face
as it sets
in my back yard.
these people are few & you don't come by them often
grab on. hold tight.
dear friend of mine
