Icon134 0 #4 September 6, 2006 have you tried your local salvation army or good will stores... I can't help you for online ideas... but sometimes they'll have that sort of thing at those types of places... Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

NWFlyer 2 #8 September 6, 2006 QuoteOooh! And it's only $462! Hippie, get that one! Except that it's apparently one of those pieces of clothing that is only allowed to be worn by tiny female humans.

PLFXpert 0 #14 September 6, 2006 I have a black, crushed velvet blazer you can borrow. It might look a little fem, but hey some guys like that. Do you want authentic vintage or would great "new" vintage be OK? And what about price range. Details, Lawn chair, details.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

PLFXpert 0 #15 September 6, 2006 QuoteThat was my intent. Nice catch! I thought it was cute. But I'd sooner buy it from Forever 21 for $20.Of course, I'm not much into the crushed velvet myself. But I have to hand it to Hippie for keeping up w/ the latest trends.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yardhippie 0 #16 September 6, 2006 I plan on heading down there when I get back if I dont find anything online. Price: hmmm depends on the quality, if its pimp I'll wear it again. But because it was asked.. around $100 or so.Goddam dirty hippies piss me off! ~GFD "What do I get for closing your rig?" ~ me "Anything you want." ~ female skydiver Mohoso Rodriguez #865 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simplyputsi 0 #17 September 6, 2006 Gonna have to disagree with Clay. Sure they might have it, but I'm guessing they don't. Last time I was in there it was a joke. Make a phone call instead of going down there. Keep checking ebay daily. Something I was looking for just popped up the other day. And why is it you don't have one of these already. I mean all the cool kids are wearing them.Skymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFXpert 0 #23 September 6, 2006 That one was my favorite. But, again. I'm not much into velvet.
