I usually spend the second sunday of every month at the happiest place on earth, the Rose Bowl flea market, and although my day is usually spent drinking beer while perusing the overpriced used goods, taking pictures of the vintage masterpieces I convince myself are not worth the price, and hunting and stalking all the great La La Land hipsters so as to ask in a convincingly nonchalant way "um hi, may I snap your photo for, well, urrrr, my blog". Yes while doing all this I managed to snag a few great vintage accessories. Yeahhh lucky me. 
And then I found this, I may be the only one in the world who thinks this is the most amazing piece of art. Alaskan eskimo fur coat with original hand carved seal buttons, carved from whale bone, hand embroidered with seed beads, oh how I wish I had a frozen place to wear this to, maybe if I just buy it and stand in front of my freezer door, alas I can not justify the $500 to watch this go unworn for years. Boo who.
Cheers all.
