So not - but hot

This is not Santa - or a homeless person. It’s me gone “wild” vintage shopping in the East Village.
I didn’t realize how much great stuff they have at ”No Relation Vintage” until today. As usual I wasn’t looking for anything special, but I ended up with a lot of special things - and it all fit in one bag.
This Fendi bag: price 50 dollar. Yes, it’s a little scruffy around the sides, but really a nice little treasure.
 
Then I found this tacky little thing that I have no idea when I will be carrying around. But anyway - just in case I want to strut down the street with some plastic flowers - I have this one. Yey. Price 20 dollar.

And last - but not least - so hot, but so politically not. This hairy piece of ass. Ok - I do not like animals that are being treated badly, but the man in the store assured me that this one is only made of really old animals that died from cancer - or they were simply road kills. Price: 30 dollars.

The only bad thing with vintage shopping is the shitty bag you have to carry all your treasures around in afterwards. But to make the most out of the situation I figured out how to make it usefull.
Just in case times get even worse and recession hits me badly, and I can no longer work as a journalist - I realized that I have lots of other options:
Freelance homeless person:

And then if Santa Claus needs a helping hand - I could be a freelance Santa…

Or just a smiling garbage man (woman)…

Anyway - if you want to check out “No Relation Vintage” to get one of these amazing bags - or just buy some other stuff there, it’s located at 204 1st Avenue between 12th and 13th street.
