Hey guys! Long time no see again right? Last year was a horrible horrible year of blogging for me. I'm sure u noticed with all my lack of postage and all. Totally not on purpose, I promise. Lots of work and a lack of inspiration will do that. I make no promises but I wanna do better. I'm cheating of course with my first post of 2013 cause these pics are from 2012. Tee hee. Not sure from when but it's probably a summertime photo. I remember my sweatshirt being completely inappropriate for the weather. Since then my color has grown out and my hair has been cut. I've gained and lost some weight. Ive had a major success with my lint shop and I've had a birthday. There, you're pretty much all caught up.

I'm wearing a sweatshirt that makes me look freakishly belly heavy from my lint shop and vintage boots that i laced with fat white laces. The bag is Liz Claiborne but I attached the leopard patch and Lions head. Currently pumping out the replicas for my new fresh lint label. They'll be up for sale soon. Threw on some gold for a pop and that's all folks. In hindsight I coulda did without the chains but ain't shit I can do about it now.

I think That's enough brain power for now. Im posting from my ipad and its my personal Opinion that bloggers ipad app sucks ass. if my pics come out all annoying and small, dont blame me. ill fix it tomorrow. but for now, I've got a pint of butter pecan ice cream and 4 episodes til the series finale of Angel waiting for me. Yes i watch Angel and yes i still love it. Now if you'll excuse me, my ipad is waiting.

Its been a while crocodile doesnt even seem fit huh? Almost forgot my login info and everything! What have i been doing all summer? Definitely not burning the midnight oil. i actually tried to enjoy my summer and managed to slip in a trip to the beach, 4th of july fireworks, many a trip downtown, shoppin til i been droppin and even fit in a movie last week. Doesnt sound like much, but for me it was a major change. all i do is work! besides all of that ive pretty much been lazing about watching old reruns of Buffy and neglecting the summer Lint shop lookbooks. i slacked. HARD. But im slowly getting it together and tryna get back to the old routine. No sleep. No sleep. No sleep.

Gonna update the stores inventory with the fall/winter lookbook soon and also ive decided to officially launch my own very small clothing line. its just customized vintage/tee shirts, jewelry and bags for now, but im hoping to eventually make exclusive jackets and vests in the future. Ill be uploading some new items to the shop (including the silver rope chain + skull bracelet above) as soon as im done with this post. be sure to check my new shizz. also thanks to the many email requests ill be making replicas of the leopard lion head bag that i made here very soon. Glad to talk to you all. its always nice to come back. this is my home away from home. Ill be updating my blog links too so look out for some narcissistic urls and all about me action.

Till then, Holla back scraps.

Sorry for the long post, as all my return posts are.

Also there are many a sentence lacking a capitol letter. Deal with it.

The Lint Shop official Relaunch...

2012-05-11T01:01:00.001-04:00

After 2 months of hard work my SHOP is back up and running with all new merch and site upgrades!

(Photography + Styling Angie Rox)

Its finally here! What i have been working on literally everyday for 2 months straight. Im so excited. Seems like forever since i posted anything about my shop or just a simple outfit post at that. Time was of the essence and my shop was just way more important. Ill be posting new outfit post soon. Now that i have a little more time, things should go a little more back to normal. Check out the shop if you like. Its pretty fucking bitchin if you ask me. Thanks to myspace (remember that) for teaching me the basics of web design. haha. Everything you see here is up for sale right now! Alsoyou would be a rad dude or dudette if you went ahead and liked the facebook page. I wont mind.

Burning on a fuse out here alone.... Im a rocket man.

Sorry for the Absence guys. Running a company all alone is a shit job. But i digress.

Just finished with all the hard work it takes to "do it right" and relaunch a site. You can tell i dont give a shit about how i look. My hair isnt even done. This is the 3rd time ive relaunched my site but this time not the lazy way. Ive learned alot since i started the lint shop and im getting the hang of time and company management. There's a whole new site layout, new inventory and new exclusive Lint Shop stuff. Ill be relaunching the site tonight so check it out in the morning guys. Now that ive finished all the grunt work maybe i can update alittle more frequently. Just took some quick pics to say "hi" yes i still exist and yes im alive. I swear i do "im still alive " posts more often than anything.

Lint Shop relaunch post coming next.

Why am i always posting at 4:00 in the morning? idk.
Dont feel like thinkin of decent shit to say so here's a quick checklist:

1. im blonde. finally! excitement dance and air punch. finally feel like myself.

2. im wearing a leopard shirt that i was gonna sell but then realized i was crazy.

3. also wearing a jacket that is officially one of the flyest vintage things i own thanks to my bestie Lauren.

4. yes i have an ipad. and yes get used to seeing him (his name is ipad)

5.. if you follow my Instagram you would have seen the D.I.Y. prep ingredients for my killer bag. totally customized it in a little under an hour. You can see the original in my Black and Gray post. its actually not complete in this post. i still have to sew on the leopard patch. hence the safety pins. the amazing lion head (really into those right now) i attached was from the pile of the many knick knacks ive collected and torn off of other things over the years in hopes to eventually use them in the way they were meant to be used.

Live lion head. Live.

Another trip downtown. i swear i live there now. every chance i get im there.

perfect weather today. i hate wearing jackets and was beyond happy to not have to wear one. ok, 2 things: 1. yes im wearing the purple shirt from like 4 other posts and yes im wearing the cape too. i LOVE them and i finally got to wear them in the perfect combination. I like how i put this together if i do say so myself. i had been wondering for days what i was gonna wear downtown since after last times foot pain situation, i knew i wanted to be comfortable. this outfit kinda happened over the course of a week and totally by accident. pure experimentation. pulled the fur collar off an old jacket that i threw away and now my cape is super fly. i think from now on im always gonna wear the 2 together. among my many new purchases i managed to snag a really good House of Harlow 1960 black resin necklace 'knockoff' and im happy as shiz. it matches my new f21 ring and vintage bracelets so well. im not usually one to be all matchy matchy but it just worked. im hoping to eventually sell it in my shop. Also rocking my H&M cage ring. A purchase that just made my week. now if i could only get it in silver.......

Sorry for the pic/word overload and lack of spell checking. its late as hell and i need to take my butt to sleep.

Lately, i've been on a shopping rampage. Most visited? Ebay.

i can never get enough of it. catch me half asleep head bobbing in front of my ipad (it has the best ebay app ever) almost every night. I bought so much stuff that im gonna have to do a recent purchases blog pretty soon. This is a sneak peek. Above is the super awesome super fly evil eye necklace from D&J via ebay. Its actually a purchase from last june way before everyone got hip to the new trend. I was already rocking evil eyes and hamsa lucky bracelets. but i only wore them once here. You cant even see the darn things. im still tryna fix the sd card that ate the rest of those pics. read that post and all will be understood. anyhoo. see you in a few.

Downtown with my lil sis Luvina.

Channeling my inner Mary-Kate and wearing a weird concoction of vintage Anne Klein fringe shawl/robe and this amazing vintage jacket that after 5 years of ownership finally found its day in the sun. My hair is blonde but its still not as blonde as i'd like and the placement is all wrong. Gettin on that asap. walking around downtown is rigorous. So much so that i had to stop in urban outfitters and buy a pair of shoes to wear home. They were totally on sale and really sexy so it was a good deal. I'll reveal the glittery goodness later.

The uber cool Saylor of Cannibals crush.

Tell me you didnt get an instant girl crush. I feel like im way behind on this one. Got these pics from the Nasty Gal blog where she was featured a few weeks ago. Went through her entire blog in just over under an hour.
This chick resides in sunny california and has the whole skater grunge thing down pat. What draws me to her is the fact that she still manages to keep her chicness through it all yet maintains her edginess. Alot of the time you only see the grundgy-ness that is 'literal' to the point of tacky (ie. taylor momsen) and just plane, well, grundgy. I get the feeling that she's tomboyish and really cool to hang with. I especially love her little cross tattoo. The fact that she writes songs, plays guitar and has a naked fingers phobia just like me only adds to her cool laid back persona.
If you like Christeric and have a knack for kirt Cobain and all things the 90's, do yourself a favor (if you havent already) and check her out. You'll thank me later.

Finally. These are the last pics of my weird reddish highlighted hair. Out with the old and in with the new. My hair is now BLONDE! Half anyways. You'll get to see in my next post. This is me looking hippie chic i guess. I cut the straps off a corny ass wrap dress and voila! A totally cool leopard cardi was born. Got the boots, bull horn pendant and headband from a consignment shop and bought that fucking awesome recycle shirt yeeaaarrrs ago at a thrift shop. Lost a couple pounds and squeezed into these adorable cutoff shorts. I love the peachy color. I dont see that too often. Topped it all off with this amaazing vintage belt with the cool lion heads on it.Im soo into them right now. But ill get into that with my "what im wearing this year post". See yall next time.

VINTAGE ONE-PIECE

2012-02-04T03:01:00.001-05:00

Found this truly old as dirt photo from June of last year of what i wore for my first Lint Shop photo shoot. Im wearing my favorite 'cape' (i guess its called) and a vintage one-piece that will be on sale in my shop soon. I figure i should start blogging the things i plan to sell before they go up in hopes of gaining some built up anticipation. I suck at updating pretty much anything so right now my shop is kinda lacking but i plan to set everything right within a week. I should have some spanking new vintage within 2 weeks. I'll be posting my last lost photos from a long long time ago (from when my hair was a weird, stuck in between, sorta reddish brown, wont turn blonde no matter what i do, pain in my ass color) tomorrow and then on sunday brand new outfit posts. Not even sure if i should call it that. Its more like me fooling around in the dark in front of the camera outfit post. eh. guess you'll have to wait and see. CIAO ASS MONKEYS.

of course, I say that with love.

Hey kiddos and kid-ettes.

Posting what's technically my first post of the new year. Although these pics are from last October. Teehee. I think i was just a little bit heavier or i can just blame it on this banging ass (yes i said banging and yes i said ass) southwestern blouse i got from a crappy consignment shop. its really lame and the owner sucks balls but if you look really hard you might find something. nonetheless, It still had the tags on it and obviously someone didn't know what they had. I flossed it out that day but i plan to wear it a little softer, un-button it and just throw it over a tank and some cut off shorts. In love with the belt also from the same shop. i think i managed to find less than 10 things total, some of which include the horn pendant in my last post, a pair of clunky boots ill be wearing in my next post(also from October), and a box of tarot cards. yes, i read cards. call me weird but i prefer cool.

I have been living in this fringe get up. I wore it the first time here but it hadnt reached its full potential. i re-fringed it and cut the sleeves completely off and now its kicking ass. Although you cant really see, im wearing a black stretch pencil skirt and a second belt underneath. Wanted to make sure i wasnt flashing anyone. Bought the awesome ox belt and horn charm from a consignment shop and im head over heels in love. I hadnt gone shoppin in a while and these gave me the perfect reasons to indulge. love love love.

psssssh..... I started a Tumblr. Come see what inspires me.

Just a quick post before bed. These are photos from the Piazza boutique opening here in Philadelphia. My sister did some modeling for them and i went along to take pics. They house local up-and-coming independent designer pieces, including some that were showcased in the Philadelphia Collection, as well as some amazing vintage pieces. My sister is wearing Orlando (Suenos Designs) one of my fav indie designers. His pieces are amazing. You can see some here.

I dont drink often but that night I had some wine. Dont know why I look so angry up there. I was mucho happy.

Check out the awesome drawling done for me by a friend just in time for my birthday. It is seriously a dead ringer for a photo of me from a outfit post i did a while back here. Its simple amazing and i guess now i can quit being jealous of all the other bloggers who have already had one done for them. I guess im the shit too. coolness.

(f21 maxi + boots, vintage belt + purse and vintage tee cut n cropped by me)

Happy birthday to me! Yesterday i turned 28 and this was what i wore. Loved my outfit. it was pretty damn comfy and almost carefree. Almost because The universe totally tried to rain on my parade. I chose the worst day possible and to wear a maxi and to straighten my normally curly hair. Seemed like everything was right but also nothing at all. Dont think i didnt notice the weirdness that was my lipstick. Its was like i missed a spot and then missed another and another. I bought this cover girl lipstick because it was suppose to stay on for 16 hours. Stay it does. However it starts to look like chipping paint within 20 minutes of me applying it and then it STAYS like that until im able to find 1. a mirror, 2. some baby oil, vaseline or makeup remover (as it states on the package) and 3. somewhere private since im always in public when this happens. needless to say i am still on a hunt for the perfect stay on red lipstick. wore my fav tee that i also wore here and my fav purse and jewels again. Cant get enough of my 'fake' YSL. <3

Despite everything that TRIED to ruin my day, this birthday actually turned out to be the best one ever. Had dinner with a friend (his treat of course) and then came home to a surprise party. My first ever! Was completely mushified (yes. thats mush-i-fied) in 2 seconds flat and also recieved the best gift EVER from another dear friend of mine which ill post later this week. it is as pretty as a picture.

i cant believe that ive posted 3 birthday through blogging already. Seems like the last one wasnt that far behind. im aint coplaining tho. i believe ive said it before....

i look pretty damn good for my age. so suck it.

I get DISfunkshional.....

Angie Rawls is far from timid. She is an ambitious Rock ‘n’ Roll fashionista who is a singer, songwriter, artist and self-proclaimed jack-of-all-trades from Philadelphia, Pa. She has her own fashion blog and online shop. She describes her online shop as if “Spanish Moss and Nasty Gal had a love child.” Angie may look 19, but she is actually 28 and currently works as a freelance photographer. She is talented and plans to fuse all her talents, so that she can showcase them on her blog for her readers. She loves music, which she strongly incorporates in her outfits with her classic band tees and skinny jeans.

Tell us about your personal style. Where do you get your inspiration?

I’d call my style grunge gypsy surf rock. With a little tomboyish swag. I have my days. Some days I feel like a rock groupie and other days I feel like an old Hollywood American Indian gypsy. If there is such a thing. Lol. I guess what I mean is that some days I feel hard and some days I feel soft. I’m always being tugged between the two personalities. I’m a rocker girl at heart but I love the girly things like sheer fabrics and lace and frill. Mostly I guess my look is inspired from old vintage rock attitude. I hate looking too perfect. I like to appear as if I just rolled off a tour bus at all times. The overdone look seems so fake to me. Nobody looks like that naturally. I’m all about natural. I try not to wear too much makeup. Just the basics. Eyeliner and lipstick. They pump up my whole grungy vibe. If I’m having a soft day I’ll still grunge it up a bit. Also, I hate for a piece of clothing to make me feel self-conscious. If I feel like I’m going to have to adjust myself all day I’m not going to buy it. Almost everything I own is not clingy. As far as what inspires me I like signature styles. A style that is unmistakable and totally recognizable. Like Amy Winehouse (R.I.P). Her style is just so unique. You can spot her a mile away. I love that. It took a while for me to find my true style but once I did I felt so comfortable in my skin.

For those who care, you can read my full interview here.
