I FINALLY got Flickr’s easy peasy “blog this” application to work (fuck you carpal tunnel)! You have NO IDEA how excited this makes me. I think I need to change my panties.
This marks the first in our Thrift Star of the Day Series. That’s right. One on every day that I’m not either camping, dead [...]

Have you ever wanted to help a gigantic 80 year old tortoise be a little less lonely? Today’s your chance. Buffalo Exchange, the large purveyor of new and used clothing, is holding a $1 sale on all their sale wares and is donating proceeds to help bring Lonesome George some tortoise friends to his home [...]
first things first, i owe everyone a huge apology for leaving this last (promised) installment hanging for so long… i had surgery last week (rather intrusive and painful, but not life threatening, so it’s unnecessary to turn your “poor diana” meters above a 6 at this point.) and no matter how prepared you think you [...]

this breaks all kinds of rules, follows way too many obvious trends and would be entirely unflattering on anyone but this alabaster blogging beauty… but! also? its perfect. and somehow sorta timeless. how confusing. i feel like i’m looking at an mc escher drawing.
So sweet! This totally reminds me that Morton’s Salt really is [...]
Hey Sacramentans,
Make sure you get outside (say what y’all want about Sacramento, but nothin’ beats our spring weather) tomorrow night for the Green Second Saturday Art Walk in stunning midtown (I’m not sure what they mean by “green,” I have a sneaking suspicion its just an excuse to party on Earth Day, what with the [...]
Painfully Hip’s Major Hip Replacement clothing swap in Chicago was so fun, it was painful. Painful to see all the amazing clothes that people were letting rot in their closets…
I loved the way the swap worked out. We set it up with a bartering system so it felt a bit like shopping but without the [...]
Here at Painfully Hip, we do try to encourage adventurous dressing, but I have to say that one of the most fun posts I’ve ever done was this rollicking slagging of the Go Jane aesthetic. I was disappointed to see that Go Jane had somewhat toned down their selection since then, but today when I [...]
Its really weird how I ended up spending most of my time with members of the opposite sex. I get along well with girls, but it seems like most of my friends are of the male variety, probably because I’m really bad at controlling noisy bodily functions (my belch will shake your knee socks off [...]
Hi Amber,
My clothes were stolen from the dryer today when I was doing my laundry. It was almost everything I own and almost all of my good things that I wore out to lunches and dinners over the weekend. I have to go shopping this weekend to replace my dresses and jeans and sweaters, since [...]
We were having a time to out-do all others in Chicago, midwestern hospitality is the BEST. Painfully Hip’s Major Hip Replacement Clothing Swap was a ridiculous amount of fun so we’ll have to consider throwing more of these! Thanks to the benevolent help of complete strangers and friends alike, it turned out to be one [...]
Be Hip.
