Weekend Extravaganza: Materialism for a good Cause

Before I tell the tale of my lovely pre-birthday weekend (I cannot believe that I will be 20% of a century old. That is unfrickin believable) I will as usual post what I wore because it's just so darn interesting.

Photos thanks to lil pee, who has decided by the way to go to the same college as me!!! YAY! She just could not stay away from my coolness.

My tee basically sums up my crazy materialistic weekend.

WARNING, there will be lots of pictures ahead. For the picture inducing headache prone people, I recommend not to proceed. But cool pics of me vastly outweigh headaches yeah?



  • I <3>
  • Jeans: back in my mall rat days, wetseal
  • flipflops
  • headband: $1
  • Chanel red bag, most definitely a faker.
  • Leftover cuban food.
So this weekend I came back home. Barbie picked me up Friday and I went a lil fabric shopping. We did an our-family-celebration on Sunday which consisted of Buffalo Exchange madness and good ole Cuban food, Old Towne adventure.


Awesome.

An ENORMOUS MOUND of food. No wonder Americans get fat.

My $4.50 birthday cake that I shared with my sister. It was a delicious 2 minute experience.

There was a car show going on.

But basically the coolness of my weekend consisted of going to the Buffalo Exchange Earth Day $1 Sale on both Saturday and Sunday. I told you I was crazy. Prepare for a long long list of the goodies. I went on Saturday just with my dad to the one in downtown of my favorite city in the world. After noticing the swarm of hipsters and crazy families I knew I needed reinforcement and called my dad to come watch my pile. I basically grabbed, sifted, and grabbed. I ended up with a $30 box.

Coming off my high I wanted to go again on Sunday at another buffalo exchange located in a different city. My whole family came this time. I never knew Lil Pee was this feisty when it came to grabbing clothes. Even my mom was pleasantly surprised at the not so thrift store-esque surrounding. Maybe I've finally convinced her! There were so many new clothes left and right.

First Loot.

The next day I went again with the whole LalaLiu family. This time $34 was spent and we even got free plastic bags. This sale was even crazier because they kept refilling the piles and people would grab like insane psychos. I became an insane psycho. The are was so nice with trees and all other Earth Day filled events. I saw a guy with dreads carrying around a marijuana plant. It was lovely. I didn't take pictures of everything this time. No more vanity for me.
