i call it indian streetwalker.

recently, i've developed a bit of a shopping problem.  not that i didn't have one before - but i do believe it has evolved to stage 3.

i blame it on the weather.  most people are complaining about how it's too cold while they're sniffing and snotting all over themselves.  me?  i LIVE for this time of year.  i am the mother fucking goldilocks of the seasons- spring is too rainy and muddy - summer is too hot and humid - winter is too cold and that makes my mascara run...  fall is my jam.  i love the yellow and orange leaves, football, boots and scarves, pumpkin iced coffee, spiked apple cider, fleece blankets, cinnamon-citrus candles, bob dylan, books, cigarettes on a brisk evening, octoberfest beer, sequin blazers, oversized hoodies....

THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGSSSS!

anyway, based on the symbiotic relationship between happiness and shopping - i've decided i am in dire need of a new wardrobe to reflect my current state of mind.  fall is the beginning of the "giving season" - and nothing says generous quite like buying yourself some new threads.

THE WISHLIST

 Indian Coat

This jacket is the cousin of my Indian Poncho - (photo to come) which i am mocked endlessly for by friends and family.  My poncho was a $20 purchase, and resembles more of a cape/blanket than an article of clothing.  But it's fucking comfortable - so they can all suck one.  

*edit* Cousin Poncho for your reference.

This jacket, however, i need it.  it's that perfect length with that big comfy collar...  however, i did recently just purchase my new winter jacket - so this one will have to go on my wishlist from Santa Irene.

Biker Bag

in my closet -  i have one huge cult of purses - all of whom go by the name of "betsey."  literally.  there's something about this woman's bags that just get me all tingly in my nether-regions.  it's probably one of the more subdued from her collection, but that doesn't mean i can not worship in it's simplistic beauty. i like the froo-froo meets sons of anarchy thing it has going on.  and although i recently purchased my elliott lucca black faux python bag last week - a still can still long for a bag with a bad-boy image.

Garter Tights

this is unfair to even PUT on a wishlist - they're not a wish, they're happening. i pretty much can't make it through the fall without them.  Another fabulous find on urban outfitters.  i just keep picturing them with low slouchy boots or with some ridiculous closed-toe black patent pumps... they're begging for a micro and a blazer - and our next trip out on the town - i'm going to give them what they long for.  *Add To Cart*

the other day i was wearing my "indian cape" and some tight leggings with my over the knee boots - and my mom told me i made Pocahontas look like a prostitute.  thus, i have proudly dubbed the look - indian streetwalker.
