which is manly?

reprints from an elementary school in 1936 (i hope the date is right, oops)

i'm not sure which one is manlier, but the guy in the red for sure has his swagger on.
i'd hang out with both of them though. maybe even be in the same gang as one of them. not the one on the right though, i don't look good in pull over crewneck sweaters. 

there was a collection of these on the table, however, the store was very overpriced on most of their items. beautiful store setup and rooms though. check it out: mission road antique mall.

thrift store finds 5/29/10

I've been on the search for a dossier, a man clutch, or would you say, organizer. I found one tonight, however, when I came home tonight & tried to slip my Moleskine XL planner into, it wouldn't snap close. Oh well. It's still great, leather, and was like 2 bucks. Here is my inspiration.



Here is what I found:



So, do I buy a new $18 Moleskine planner for it to fit into my 2 dollar dossier? haha.
I also snagged a pair of Havaianas, which were at Cargo Largo with the URBANOUTFITTERS tag on it marked down to 9.99 and almost bought them. However, at the thrift  they were 3.99 for a brand new pair with the original tags still on them. Holla.



I'm not sure where this place is, but it's real wood and was only a buck. I hung it up on my growing wall.



This photograph of my room is poor quality and angle. Uh, and to think, I wanted to be a photographer at one point. Whatever.


As you can see, I've collected various frames, photos, and items and nail them to my wall in attempts to create art. We'll see where it's at in a couple of months. It's a process yanno, and I've only been a recent jobless, college grad for a bout 2 weeks.
