Summer is officially over for me, college starts tomorrow and I won't bore you or go on about how Summer changed my life or didn't change my life but I will say that I am excited to move forward, get on some sort of schedule and prep Monikapolitan.com for all the Fall shopping traffic. This summer I saw many great places, met many new people, made many great friends and lost some old friends. Here is the last of my summer, most shot with a kodak disposable camera..
When in Rome. I'm officially back from Austin, TX. Sorry for the lack of postage on the blog, all the travels have kept me pretty busy for the week. Here are some pictures from the past couple of weeks. I have a disposable camera that is getting developed today... and that should be interesting.
I've stayed up till the wee hours of the night these past few days, taking pictures of all the latest items, adding them to the store and creating the newest section at Monikapolitan.com, Floral Frenzy- "a section dedicated to everything that blooms!" I have this strong attraction to floral ANYTHING and tend to go overboard when searching for store items or even personal items, which is why we decided to create the Floral Frenzy! All of the latest items added to this section are vintage and one-of-a-kind so if you see something you like, get it fast because it may never be back again! Not only did I add fresh new items to the Floral Frenzy section but there are several vintage items as well, including my favorite the Rare Vintage Sequins Cat Coin Purse! It was hard letting this one go because sequins and kittens are such a great mix but I'm sure someone will put it to great use! Thrift shopping & scavenging through dusty and dirty piles is serious work but we are here to do the dirty work for you so I hope you guys enjoy the latest items as much as I do! More items are still being added and should be up by the end of the week so stay updated on here or follow Monikapolitan on twitter for instant updates! Monikapolitan Thrift Tour coming soon ;)
Another day, another dollar... just kidding, i don't know why I said that, I'm just excited because we spent another day in Austin, TX doing nothing but thrift shopping!! I found a beauuttifull floral comforter which I was totally excited about because not only was it my bed's size, but I was recently going to spend $100 on a similar comforter from Urban Outfitters. I'm officially on a floral binge and because of this, we have decided to add a BRAND NEW section to Monikapolitan.com dedicated to florals only! Floral bags, floral mugs, floral cases, floral ash trays, floral soap dispensers, floral pigs, floral kittens, floral brainz... you get the point, right? Expect this floral overdose sometime next week, it's going to be great. After the floral frenzy we went to the lego store and I took a picture with a giant pure lego Woody! Then we went to eat delicious meats at Texas Land & Cattle, it was my first time and it was perfect! I'll be home soon with lots of great thingz to add to the store. Hope you guys are enjoying these daily Austin updates...
Yesterday we scavenged around several thrift shops in Austin. I've been wanting to stock up the Vintage selection at Monikapolitan.com with some fresh pieces and so far Austin isn't disappointing! I found several epic floral suitcases, cute apartment goods, a dish set with pink florals and more. After thrifting we went to Madam Mam's for my FAVORITE Thai Tea and Thai food! Aside from my beautiful new floral dishes, everything will be up at Monikapolitan.com for an affordable price by the end of the week or so...
