thrift town: get used

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbE8tPOj9MU&hl=en_US&fs=1&]

okay, this is crazy old news, but...
about six gazillion years ago (ok, really, like three years ago, back in '07), when i was living out in san francisco, i did an interview for a documentary on thrift town, a bay-area thrift store chain.
anyway, i was waxing nostalgic about thrift town today with pete (oh how i miss that place!!! AHHHH!!!), and decided to google around to see if anything ever came of the doc. and voila! i turned up the documentary in toto, on the ever amazing youtube! yay! it's embedded above.
the documentary is called thrift town: get used. it's only about 10 minutes long (so, really, a short). i make a small appearance at the beginning of the film, and then at about 6:27 i get a longer bit...where they show me shopping around the store (checkin' out the clothes, shoes, and patterns, haha!) and i get a few seconds of face time just after that where i dork out and say some nice stuff about thrift town and thrifting in general. :)
[btw: the acid wash jumper dress and pink earrings i'm wearing in the documentary are thrift town finds. you can get a better look at the acid wash jumper here if ye are so inclined...]

wardrobe_remix(ers) o' the week

to all of you, you lovely amazing people:
THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all the insights, advice, kind words, and most of all, constructive criticism about the wardrobe_remix(ers) o' the week posts last week. it was a big help, and the comments you made and the discussion that ensued inspired me to keep going, and get creative with the posts over time.
on that note, once i get settled in my new home (i'm moving in less than a week!!!), and things settle down a bit for me and my family and i have more time, i plan to make some really cool changes to these posts and perhaps how i handle w_r as a whole in relation to my blog in general. there might be BIG changes... do stay tuned!
coming back to the here and now: this week i tried to pull out some folks i think i haven't featured yet (apologies if i have!). if you have any suggestions for people you think should be featured/a particularly incredible pic you saw in the pool in the past week, do shoot me an email! perhaps i'll add your suggestion in!
best, your friend, tricia

every so often i like to learn more about who's reading my blog...so i ask you:
who are you? tell me about yourself! what you're into, what's your background, anything you'd like to say about yourself. come out of the woodwork, lurkers! pretty please? i love hearing from you and about you. i think you're pretty amazing!

also:
tell me what kinds of posts you like best here...what you'd like to see more of, going forward. introspective writing? interesting art? interesting fashion pieces/makers? photos? lists of obsessions? book peeks? me showing off stuff i made? cool fashion related or craft links? something else? if so, what?
why? b/c i'm planning some changes to this blog over time, but i'm interested in what you have to say and what you like, and why you come (which i know was addressed in a previous post)...it means a lot to me that you come at all.
danke! & happy weekend!!
