I’m pretty sure you’ve seen these in your google reader at least once today. These babies shout out “BAD ASS” like no other. It looks like these were pulled out of Siouxie Sioux’s personal wardrobe!!

Im obsessed!!! The release date and the prices are still yet to be announced, but I’m going to have to find an alternative for these puppies somehow. SOON.

On that note, don’t get a girl upset if you don’t want these up yours.

Ladies — I don’t know about you, but I always try to look for pieces that is one of a kind, and makes a statement (of course). I love having the ‘where’d you get that killer dress’ outfit when I go somewhere. And honestly, I don’t want to be caught wearing the same shit that I wore during the last big event.

I swear I can look through this site forever. It’s easy to navigate, and not so overwhelming.

There’s  a mix of new and vintage pieces, and you can never go wrong with classic little black dresses with a twist. Their collection of vintage pieces are to die for, and are obviously one of a kind treasures in your closet. They have a great collection of jewelry too, if you’re looking for that bad ass ring and some sick arm candy.

Nasty Gal is San Francisco based which makes me even happier that I’m buying locally =). I went to a discussion about a month ago in UC Berkeley and owner Sophia Amoruso was one of the speakers. When asked where she finds all these killer vintage items, she simply replies, “that’s totally top secret.”

Make sure you check out the site, I’m almost positive you’ll find something great! (click on image to redirect to nastygal)

My intentions of slowly transforming fatlace into a food blog is getting closer and closer!

.. im kidding guys…

All the time that I’ve been spending in the Sacramento/Davis area had been paying off. A couple of weeks back (yes this post is so overdue) we went to the Squeeze Inn. It’s a hamburger dive inn that serves epic cheese burgers! You hear me? EPIC CHEESE. I think I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

yep, thats a HANDFUL of cheese.

In 2006, Amanda Davis stepped on the scene hitting the jewelry industry where it counts…
Right in The Family Jewels.

The Chicago based jewelry designer immediately took the industry by storm with the introduction of pieces such as a skeleton hand and rib cage.  Her innovative designs set her apart from the others, giving the world a new outlook on acrylic jewelry.  As trends mature and change, so has her work. She’s still working with acrylics, but is working on expanding her line by experimenting with a variety of metals.

Amanda was kind enough to take some time to give us an inside look at her world, and share the story behind Right in the Family Jewels.

A bonus fun fact…she created the WTForks necklaces!
