No You Cant Have My Crying Skull Tote


A bit of a throw back but who cares!
This bag is one of the first that I made when I created RyVampd, this is also the first photo shoot I did when I decided to become a blogger.
An exquisite bag! (I think so anyway). Its is made from recycled denim that I hand printed (unbelievable I know)
Any Whooo
Enjoy Dolls!

Fringe and Feathers: Native Style



So I went to my first festival of the summer!!  Something along the lines of a music festival but with a twist.  This annual "Gateway Nations Pow Wow" is hosted every summer by the the American Arts Council, in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn.  
I am part Cherokee and Blackfoot Indian-so this was the perfect opportunity to get a closer look my ancestry  and hang out with my friend J-No because everywhere we go I always have a blast or a blackout or both :)



Breathtaking!



The grounds were filled with men, women and children dressed in traditional dance costumes called Regalia.  These costumes were as about elaborate as you can get!! Adorned with every feather under the sun, leathers, suedes, furs, bones, bells, and whistles.  Every piece was strategically placed to serve a special function.




J-No and I spent the day watching the dance and ring competitions.  It was so amazing watching the dancers in action.  When they danced their regalia came to life and took on a creature like persona!!  There would be up to 20 dances on the stage at one time, it was truly a colorful and enlightening experience!!
I was having a picture taking good time



Necklace Fox Bag--had to highlight this!

Near the end I did meet this amazing psychic named Free Spirit..she was a ball of crazy energy!!
Defintly going to get me a necklace fox bag.

Kimono: RyVampd
Top: H&M
Shorts: Wet Seal
Necklace: J-No

More Debauchery On The Way!!!!! Cant Wait!!


I went on a little bit of a hiatas from blogging (even though there is not much here) because I have been working some absolutely fabulous shit!! That of course I can wait to share with you all.
My latest collection properly named "Badgirlfriend" was born a couple of months ago when I became obsessed with.....(this is horrid) .....Miley Cyrus.
I know.. I know (seriously I know)
but..... her shenanigans inspired to me to create some killer stuff which I will be giving you shots of  throughout this fabulous summer....
Can't Wait!!! 
Oh!!! and while I was in creativity land I went blond and shaved my head!!! ,0

NYFW: Channeling Mary-Kate & Ashlee






This was my 2nd look while running around during fashion week.  I decided to channel 1 well-- 2 of my fashion icon idles with this look.  I love the twins can pull off oversized, shapeless frocks and make them look effortless.  Oversize, shapeless and sexy should not go into the same sentence until ME! Cover it all up and and let it all out at the same time.. 
This sweater I snagged from a indie designer- Davon Kane in Baltimore at a Townson State University fashion show, it is a "one of a kind" and one of favorite pieces. Love the surprise factor in the back!
The event- I was invited to this crazy combo event by Lisa Ajello of Eye Media PR, it was a party/fashion show/shopping/performance event held at the Griffin in the meatpacking district (NYC). There was artwork hanging, people performing, crazy off the wall fashion shows and indie designers offering up scrumptious goods. I had a blast mingling with NYFW's underground crawlers.

They were showcasing some artwork by photographer Josef Jasso. His work is crazy awesome,
I took some time to visit his site, what I love is his subjects are your everyday run of the mill models.
He def puts a colorful spin on his fashion photography. www.josefjasso.com

Unfortunately my piece of shit camera was acting crazy so I did not get any photos of any of the shows.  But @clashbydash turnt it up and turnt it out!
