Chico's Bail Bonds


With my obsession for prison shows on TV, when I saw this shirt with the words "Chico's Bail Bonds" printed on it, I knew I had to get it! I found this gem at my most favorite thrift store: Red, White, & Blue in Hamilton, NJ. I've been shopping there since I was in high school, and that has been many many years! I had the shirt for a few years without using it, waiting for the right moment for it to pair with another fabric. I finally figured it out when I found the multi-colored striped curtain. For the life of me, I can't remember right now where I found that one, but I'm sure it will come to me eventually. I wanted to position the words in a way that they almost lost their meaning as words at a quick glance and became more like a pattern. But, I also wanted them to be readable when they were really looked at. I'm pretty happy with the way it came out and hope you love it too! xoxo Rach

I know, I know, I know!

Ok, so here it is...I'm a major blog slacker! I promise new posts coming soon complete with pics of my newest acquisitions. Here's a hint, I got two new great pieces for a total of 50 cents! I haven't worn my leopard jumpsuit yet, but when I do pictures will follow! That's all for now, xoxo.
