Way-Out Wednesday: Keep Your Hands To Your Elf

Today's Way-Out Wednesday pick is kind of...hmm...special, maybe? I don't mean "special" as in: needs to wear a helmet in the bathtub and a spork is too dangerous a cooking utensil special, more like it's not weird, gross or creepy (though a bit off-kilter and pretty dang cute, which we LOVE), it's rockin' some aqua so technically it could be a choice for Aqua Blue Heaven Friday (which, OK, so I haven't done that theme in a while, back off my jock, homies), AND it's also a novelty print, so we could've used it for a Prints Charming Sunday pick. You could say that today's pick is such a non-conformist that it breaks all boundaries and cannot be put into any one box, man. But I wouldn't say that hippie "I'm-OK-you're-OK" crap. I'd say shut the hell up already and get to showin' the pick for Way-Out Wednesday. So I will.





Behold! Wacky elves! Aqua mushrooms! Terrycloth...fabric... OK, that's a little odd. I'm hung up on that part. I LOOOOVE pixies and elves, but damn, what would one make with terrycloth? I guess a dress/skirt/blouse/ANY sort of fashion (outside of a swimsuit cover up) would be weird to wear when made out of a towel. What would YOU make out of this? Do tell! (A good choice if you're in, say, the porn business, no?)

Incredibly perplexing-yet-wickedly-awesome 2 Yards of Vintage 50's/60's Elf Novelty Print Fabric currently available on Etsy from seller Hillbilly Filly.

Prints Charming Sunday: Mucha Muchacha.

Welcome to Prints Charming Sunday!




Today's pick is this a-MAY-zingly cool Vintage 50's Mexican Dancers Novelty Print Dress & Bolero, currently available on Etsy (and for a very decent price, homies) from seller Metro Retro Vintage:







It's a GREAT freakin' outfit (and that cut is always truly flattering on a chick's bod), but I do have a question. Or many. I've been looking at this dancin' duo for a while now and can't exactly seem to figure out what's going on here, exactly. Is she just thrown over his hip, like he's hauling a sack of flour? Where, precisely, are her legs? Perhaps she lost them in a Dance-Off gone horribly wrong, involving a too-hot tortilla, a mariachi band on speed and ill-fitting sombreros? And is he not wearing pants?! (Because I fully condone Pantsless Dancing, I just need to know.)
