Nope, I caught it too, but thanks for making me chuckle over it again! That song is so effin' funny! "meatloaf sandwiiiich"

Bwah! Sloppy Joe song....

I love vintage clothes and I don't go shopping for them enough these days! Some of my favorite things - a gorgeous, black taffetta, tiered dress, w/ a halter neckline. Very Marilyn-esque looking.

I scored a pair of Peter Max limited edition jeans at a garage sale - and had them altered into capri pants.

A former co-worker was getting rid of a bunch of clothes, but let me go thru the trunk of her car before she took them to Goodwill. I scored a brown leather bomber jacket, which is not authentic, but looks like it is. The lining has little airplanes on it. I get compliments on it every time wear it - especially from veterans!

A friend of mine was at a Goodwill, and called me to ask what size shoe I wear (6 1/2). She got me a KILLER pair of black suede, lace-up, Stevie looking platform boots for $10. My favorite thing about them is the shape of the heels - I've never seen anything like them - they're kinda A-shaped and funky, I love them.

My grandmother has given me all of her costume jewelry she's collected over the years. When brooches came back in style this fall? Fuhgeddaboutit! I literally have plastic grocery bags filled w/ that kinda stuff. I need to hand it on down to my niece so she can play dress up!

Ooooh, you're so lucky! I had a bunch of brooches & got rid of them, thinking "when the hell am I ever going to wear this?" Idiot! I still have a few...somewhere.
