so, amy winehouse…

even though i was never a HUGE fan, and i will admit to making fun of how frightening she’s looked at times, i’m quite sad about it. of course i was one of those assholes that was like “oh you didn’t see it coming?”, and now i feel awful for thinking that way.  there are talks on the news about her dying from a seizure because she was quitting drinking cold turkey and that might be a possibility from it… how ironic and sad if that is the case.

at any rate, i wasn’t a total hater and i was always a huge fan of her style, and especially the fashion lines that she did with fred perry. (which of course, i initially slept on.)

i guess i didn’t buy anything from the lines at first because i was still giving my mother money, so i didn’t have much spending cash because of living on my own…  but i always had my eyeballs on the fred perry stuff and i cruise ebay here and there. thankfully, i hit up the fred perry website before the “collectors” and/or (ebay seller) assholes started grabbing it all up after she passed. i do regret not specifically buying four of the shirts, but it’s not the end of the world.

i have two shirts that i paid very little for, and i’m thankful that i got my hands on them before websites jacked up prices. soon, those shirts will be gone. so i’m glad i got them when i did<3

on two amy side-notes…

this was amazing of her father, SERIOUSLY awesome.
hopefully he will allow fred perry to release the other three lines that they had lined up.

i’m sure if they do release them, they’re going to be snatched up quickly, i’m going to have to keep my eyeballs peeled and the ears open.

oh, and remember when tons of people were amy for halloween? (guilty as charged! i did it in 2007, lol. visual).
RIP amy<3
