I came across this video from Etsy recently which features a man who is living and breathing a (sadly, but true) dying American dream. Adam Cramer of Liberty Vintage in Philadelphia speaks some tough words to wrap around, since they're all so true. His passion for rebuilding vintage motorcycles is... Continue reading

Oh ma gahd, I've been so ridiculously busy these past couple of days. Thus my lack of presence, sorry Jenna! ;) My part time job, suddenly turned into an over time job with homework to boot. Things are mellowing out though, thankfully! However, I just got back from dropping my... Continue reading

Everyone is familiar by now of the story of Amy Winehouse. A tragic tale of stardome gone wrong, yet another star joining the "27 club" with the likes of Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Brian Jones, Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Marilyn Monroe, Elivis... and the list goes on. While her career... Continue reading

About 5 years ago I had a red lip obsession. I wouldn't go anywhere without my red lipstick, most often paired with bright red nails. A career in the restaurant industry ruined that fad for me for some time but since switching to work in the world wide web, I... Continue reading

I've been in the market for a simple lo-fi 35mm camera for a little while now. I've rounded it down to 2 models at this point.. I think. My first option is the Superheadz Ultra Wide and Slim which is a clone of the Vivitar ultra wide and slim (discontinued)... Continue reading

Syd here! After a long day at work, I found myself cruising Etsy (as usual..) with a life saving glass of wine and a serious desire for more animal skulls and feathers for our house. I love collecting feathers and small animal bones if I ever come across them outside,... Continue reading

Today, while Pete was snoozing from working an early shift, I floated around the city to some of my favorite thrifting and vintage spots so far. I went to a Salvation Army on NE Halsey which was pretty unsuccessful, not to mention how rude some employees were. Then I went... Continue reading

When we moved across the country, we had to seriously downsize in order to make it all the way to Portland with just our our little truck and a small trailer. As expected, there were a few things neither of us could part with and one of those things was... Continue reading

Yesterday I played hookie and worked from home in the morning, escaping to the beach in the afternoon. It was a much needed endeavor- 90+ degrees, full sunshine, and a vehicle willing to drive the 2 hours to the shore. I went with some of my oldest friends and prior... Continue reading

We're obsessed with cruising through Etsy shops and can literally get stuck for hours. We'll start out looking for vintage sunglasses and then suddenly find ourselves realizing we need more vintage milk crates for the house, small animal skulls or new cat eye glasses. So, in "loving" hundreds of items,... Continue reading

It's cloudy and rainy off and on here in Portland, which is a perfect day off for me since Jenna is off on her road trip, I've got a lot of work to catch up on. I can't wait until she posts photos of her trip once she gets back... Continue reading

This morning I received a special package from my buddy Jason at Brixton. I've known Jason for a while now through friends back on the east coast, but he actually lives in Southern California.
