You're So Last Summer...





There is nothing better than a Sunday market, or an overdue post. Well actually I can think of many better things than an overdue post. The top three pictures are from the local Riccarton market in Christchurch every Sunday.

It's a kitchy market filled with vinyl, cheap clothes and knick knacks that even I have no use for. I can't wait to go next, but until I curb my spending habit and pay off my America debt a.k.a my sister bailing me out (of finacial death, not jail) I can only buy what I think I will possibly never see again.

So after much adoration, of so many things out of my reach, I left with; a vintage pearl ring, sold by a token little old lady, Two, yes, TWO Joni Mitchell records, One Julie Andrews record and a pair of very sore feet. Trying hard not to toot my own horn, but one of the Joni mitchell records is a first printing. It perfectly matches other two originals ,I nabbed from the states. I am so stoked as my vinyl collecting has only started a mere month ago and Joni Mitchell steals my heart.

So jealous of my friends Wallmart Batman watch. It may be brand new and made in china but it is a mighty fine piece of work. The top is interchangeable aswell, if only I had stolen it when she wasn't looking and claimed it mine.....

I decided to go au natural with the hair yesterday letting it show it's real character when not subject to the rigor of straightening, what do you think? Fro or no?
