Hello from the Heartland...(and they have polyester)


Okay so i am here in West Des Moines, Iowa. i flew here by myself (but tecnically i was in an airplane but still....) and it was quite an experience. Shopping in Iowa is quite different than shopping in New York. Green Bags are even more popular here than they are on the East Coast. They also call plastic grocery bags "sacks." I went to the most wonderful store today. It is called the "Atomic Garage!" Imagine this: walls of Polyester, shelves of white faux leather Go-Go boots, and a twirling pillar of retro-inspired glasses. It was like heaven. i purchased a Chestnut Brown cardigan with matching suede panels on the front and it is quite amazing if i do say so myself. Well i'm off to dinner at a resturant called "O'Charley's." *Will blog soon*
