This doesn’t count as shopping does it?  

Score! from Adam Saewitz on Vimeo.

I mean, no money is actually going to exchange hands. So I should be good, right? Great!

Now that we’re in agreement, lemme tell you all about Score! in case you haven’t heard of it… Attendees bring their old clothes, music, books, etc, to the event and drop them at the door. Volunteers sort and distribute these items to themed departments where professional curators organize them into boutique-like displays. Attendees have the option to browse each department and take as much as they can carry! Meanwhile, DJs keep the party poppin’, artists silkscreen custom tote bags, and fashion photographers take photos of stylish “scored” outfits. At the end of the day, all leftover items and proceeds from the event are donated to charity. This year’s event is happening on Saturday, May 29th. I can’t wait!

I was poking around online recently…

…When I ran across an article on fashion hauling. For those of you who are clueless (like I was), haul videos are created when chicks go shopping and later showcase all the goodies and bargains they found.

My immediate reaction after reading about the phenomenon: How did I not know about this?! After a quick search on YouTube, I was able to find haul videos on everything from clothes, to makeup, to scrapbook supplies, and even wigs! I never even knew this world existed, and now I’m kinda hooked.  So ladies and gents, for your viewing pleasure, I present to you my first ever haul video:

P.S. In case you were wondering, this video was based on purchases made prior to my self-imposed 1 month shopping hiatus.  Thank you very much!

P.P.S. Why does my face look so crazy in this screen still?
