This is my BF Grace. Check out the rad poncho she got at the Rosebowl swap meet in Pasadena. I told her i'm gonna steal it from her soon. Grace is also the one who put this amazing event together and did a fabulous job as always!!! It was a great turnout and thanks to everyone who turned out to swap their vintage goods!
