 THE HOLY BULLSHIT METER

  WE ALL HAVE A BULLSHIT TOLERANCE. It's just a natural part of us being human, we all have different levels of tolerance, and we all have the infamous "Boiling Point". 

 It's more than OKAY to have a tolerance to bullshit, but it gets kind of vague if you can't control yourself. For instance, if someone calls you a "Loser" we don't wing our fists at their face, a "That's not okay" or maybe even a bitchy look is a better option.

 I have a high tolerance for freaking out at someone. It's once in a blue moon that I scream bloody murder at them, but hell; it happens. We all can only take so much, I am the type that lets it fester all in the good ol' insides. It isn't very healthy though.

 I have created the Holy Bullshit Meter for your entertainment. Leave me a comment on where you are on this beaut scale..

Think of the one thing that REALLY drives you nuts.

Imagine someone doing that terribly irritating thing to you.

Etsy Favourites For January.

       Etsy is my all time favourite time-waster. I KNOW I could be doing other things, like cleaning the house etc, but I am usually splayed out on the good ol' 1950's teal chair in the living room; drooling over crafts and clothing galore. I am usually on the site for the 1940s and 50's hair goods; but you know, the dresses are to die for as well, some can break your heart though (usually the best ones are pricey) 

Anywhoo, here are my Etsy favourites for January! 

           

  The Vintage Bunny Hair Snood in Sky Blue Mohair, 38.00*$

                                        

                                                       

Want to buy it? 

I am soooo in love with this. The colour is just so pretty and the mohair material? To die for! I'll be ordering this 

sometime 

hopefully in February. This snood is not the only one of it's kind, there are many more in super cute colours! Check it out here 

In case you're a bit confused of what a snood is, 

click here. Snoods were often worn by women in the 1940's to keep their hair away from their faces when working in factories. Women wear them now as a fashion piece,(they look so cute!) and it's great for when you're hair is unruly or just plain unmanageable. It's also good for windy days as well.  

*shipping and handling is on you!

This is a true Hollywood collectors item. Not only are they authentic 50's pin curl clips, but they are modelled by the one and only Elyse Knox! More information can be read here. It's a great addition to all you Vintage collectors out there!

Want to buy it?

Isn't it neat? I just love the detailing and the whole darn idea! I'd buy it in a heartbeat, but I need to get some money first. I love the centre piece, it reminds me of an eye. I hope that doesn't freak you out...

It's the sauciest,badass,and elegant coat that's ever even laid a finger on the face of the earth..and I want it. If you buy it, I wont hate you, but you better take god damn good care of it.
