I gave myself a new slightly intense haircut (super short bangs) and dyed my hair dark red, which led me to be called an 80s vampire by my old pal G. If I could afford this profusion of Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs, and Thakoon, maybe I could also dress like an 80s vampire. Some might say I already do...

Polish Town, U.S.A.

I haven't been sharing too many of my thrifted finds recently, so I thought I'd show some shots from my recent trip to Riverhead's Polish Town with my pals D & G. It was almost our friend Raynorshine's birthday and we wanted to scope out some potential gifts at the local Polish Town thrift store.





Several amazing books were found, including this Time Life guide to software.





Another find, which D just had to purchase for Raynorshine's bday present, was this very special New Kids on the Block book.





A disturbing new Care Bear movie with an odd mohawk-sporting Care Bear.




I had to keep this amazing mug for myself! Actually I was worried Raynorshine might not like it but now I'm having second thoughts... think I will give it to her.



We saw these amazing window displays on the way to the Euro Deli down the street. Magical and creepy at the same time!
