Hello my dear readers!  I’m making some changes to my website maryvannote.com and because my blog is attached to the same url, I might have to change the blog url too.  I don’t know how this will effect my feed, but I’ll try to keep you updated.  If you haven’t yet, please add me on facebook so I can keep you up-to-date.

If you’re in San Francisco, tonight I’m performing at The Purple Onion at 8:30.
Wish me luck on the website!  I have no idea about any of this stuff!  AGHH!

40s/50s Bermuda knit sweater: thrifted (only $1.50!)
1940s dress: etsy (also worn here)
floral socks: H&M
vintage salvatore ferragamo flats: ebay
satchel: Le Mode Accessories

I was back in San Francisco last week to accompany my boyfriend at his work installing an exhibit at the Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate park.  He was also being filmed by the local news station.

I wore one of my latest thrift scores: a 40s/50s light pink angora sweater.  It’s always a joy to locate the vintage label while scouring the racks at a thrift shop.

I’ll be in Portland, OR this weekend!  It’ll be hard to visit some of my favorite vintage stores with little to no spending money in my pocket.  Back in the day Portland was my vintage mecca and I found some amazing pieces there that remain some of my favorites in my wardrobe.  It’s been a while since I’ve been back.  Last time I visited was while I was on tour in November 2009.  The reason for this brief trip is a performance I’ll be doing on Monday, Jan 23 for Back Fence PDX a live storytelling show.  I’ll be telling a story for the theme I DIDN’T THINK THIS THROUGH.

Doors at 7 p.m., show at 8 p.m., Monday at The Gerding Theater at the Armory, Portland Center Stage, 128 N.W. 11th Ave.  Tickets are free, but the reserved tickets are “sold out.”  Although some people reserve tickets and don’t use them so there might be some available at the door.  If you’re in Portland, I’d love to see you.  And if you know of any Portland fun things to do or see on the cheap, let me know!
