cozy like cosby sweater

Everyone thinks of Bill Cosby when the think of crazy wild sweaters. True. However sometimes I can't help but think about Malcolm-Jamal Warner (Theo Huxtable) He had some AMAZING fits on The Cosby Show.

But of course if we do talk Cosby fashion I have to mention Lisa Bonet a.k.a. Denise Huxtable. Overall they were one of the most stylist families. Swag for years.

Thrift stores are THE best place to find these fashion because well... Thrift stores and 2nd shops are made up of the past. Fashion always comes full circle people. I know this because places like Urban Outfitters, Forever 21, Top Shop, and even Nordstrom BP are always selling clothes that look old and "dated" to a certain era. But me, I can't buy those items full price knowing good and well I can find a one-of-a-kind item at my local Goodwill.

Case in point: I found my own cosby/denise/theo sweater for $4.50. You truly can't bet that price.

the blossom effect

Today has been home, cafe, library, running, cafe, home again. And leaving once more to host a show tonight.

Been busy researching. There some dope shit in the works right now with my life. Don't want to jinx it but I am really excited to share. (soon.)

I feel like I am 6 years again when I wear overalls. But that's the point isn't it? I pair it with this great floral top I found at deseret industries ages ago. I like the 90's vibe. Throw in my converse to tie it all together.

over all & lip gloss

I am so glad to get my camera back! I am a little rusty though. Setting things up and what not. Either way, I am so happy to get back to regular posts.

Also as mentioned on my "5 things I love right now" I am all about the overalls. It's a trend that is becoming really big for fall. Reminds me of the 90s, back to school, and chilly nights.
