I just wanted to say that I love your blog!
Regarding your question, I would have to say my Chanel black classic flap bag. It's a classic!
my "bad religion" tshirt and my "tiger army" hoodie. total reminders of my punk rock youth!
for the record, the BR tshirt would totally look bad ass with these jeans
thank you for the giveaway!

My new Throbbing Gristle t-shirt from their show last week. One of my favorite bands and they exceeded all my expectations. Best show in years.

My Nine West shiny black ankle boots
No matter what my kid's style might be, I think those go with everything

I would have to say a vintage pink skirt w/ matching top that belonged to my mom and a pair of simple blacke vintage heels. Both are classic.

Love your blog
The fur coat my grandma gave me. I don't wear it very often, but I make sure to pet it from time to time.
I will definitely be hanging on to my dad's vintage Grateful Dead shirts and my new black Christian Louboutin pumps as well. They don't even fit me but the sale was too good to pass up. Hopefully my future child will love them as much as I do.
Oh, and these jeans if I win! =) Thanks for the contest!

When I was in Tokyo I bought a hand-made t-shirt from a guy at a big free-style art event. The shirt is bright yellow and features a beautiful image of Buddha in bright pink. Totally neon, and a fitting representation of Japan - something modern with something traditional. We tried speaking each other's languages to each other and were making little progress in the transaction. Finally he said in English, "Buy this and I will dance for you." Sold!

A black slouchy beanie that used to belong to my dad back when he was a foreign exchange student in the 70s.

My jean jacket. it is a classic

I would hold onto my customized jean vest (with studs, back patch and everything). It looks great and hopefully will be a good story to tell my kids about.
Through years of thrifting I've amassed an awesome collection of black leather pieces that I could never ever part with - 2 cropped biker jackets, a cropped racer-back biker vest, high waist bubble shorts with diamonte detail and a high waist skater skirt.
They'll never date, they'll go with everything....and she'll have to share them with me because I have visions of rocking them until I'm a senior citizen....

my mother's black tshirt from the 70s that has the italian map masked in the form of italy. on the shirt in white lettering it says "italian americans #1."

a pair of onyx dior chandelier earrings that my fiance gave me on our first christmas together. and a jersey vivienne westwood lbd. "interesting" things have happened every single time i've worn these pieces. i want my children to experience the same love and fun i had.
My leather jacket. It's so sofy and comfy and will definitely stand the test of time. Most of my other clothes get destroyed super fast.

A bad ass black balaclava my dad passed onto me when i was a kid.
He'd had it from the seventies and used to wear it in winter when riding his motorbike. One day I started borrowing it to play cops and robbers, and never gave it back!
It's pretty daggy and I probably can't wear it most places, but I love it, and who knows... someday it might come in handy if I decide to rob a bank.

all of my monrow t-shirts and tank tops. i wear them with everything.
gimmie the jeans!
I'd hand down either my vintage black leather motorcycle saddlebag or my 70s thin as air 'poopdeck' t-shirt.

a silver chain with 5 pull rings from diet coke and a silver mutter i found on the street. i wear it almost every day. the pullrings is an old habit from punk teeanges when giving it to someone was a sign of love. i still have one that my first boyfriend gave to me. he also gave me his mothers engagement ring which he stole. he was a punk and i still have it.
My high school prom dress. I found it two days before my prom! It's a vintage 1940's dress, copper in colour and absolutely divine. It isn't something I would wear often, but it is perfect for special occasions. I still can't believe that I found this gem!
I have this t-shirt from my mom's high school days. It's beige and says Explorers on the front with two rifles crossing in the middle and Staten Island underneath. The back says FRAN (her name).
Yeah my mom was that badass bitch who grew up in Staten Island and was in the NRA.
I'll keep this shirt forever and ever and ever. Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby.

i have an irreplaceable leather jacket that i got in italy. its been weathered in rain and snow and its perfect and soft and textured and ALMOST even a little torn. and the shape is something ive never seen. you cant beat the perfect leather jacket.
and i wont be popping out any kids, so no one is gonna steal it from me!!
Oh this is tough. Probably the necklace that my grandmother gave me before she died, it's a cross on a silver chain, just gorgeous.

DvF halter sweater dress. It's funky because of the tribal inspired print and timeless because it's DvF.

Do rings count? :) urpleurple@gmail.com
I believe it would have to be my pair of vintage Lip Service crushed velvet skinny lace-up pants with rows of grommets all the way up the sides. Believe me... my silly description doesn't even do it justice. I probably won't even let it go until I start to look ridiculous in it. Maybe once I'm already 80 and with a bad hunch and one too many wrinkles. Only then would you able to pry them out of my shaking, arthritic hands.
These current elliot jeans I will be getting soon!:)
