ckparis and the rabbit hole

hey all, what are you doing? tell me...

well, i discovered a fun, new vintage shop in the 'nana called the rabbit hole.
can you believe it?

i was perusing the shelves and stumbled upon a black lace meshy item labeled
"mysterious vintage item" $3.00.
complete with a small clear plastic ring device.
right out of alice and wonderland...

i asked tya, the store owner, what it was. she kinda shook her head.
hmmmmmmmmm.
immediate purchase.
with a label like that, it was a fourth dimension play item.
ok, any ideas what the mysterious vintage item was used for?

i tried it on as a tube top layering piece and as a skirt layering piece.
a black lace ruffle peaking out for here or there?
works as a circular scarf or a cute belt.

somewhere in the depths of my mind i recalled something...
once upon a time in a not too distant time was a place called miami beach n/k/a SOBE.
a place where little old ladies congregated on porches wearing ...
curler covers!!!
yup, the mystery is solved, tya.
can't wait to come play dress up in your store soon.
the rabbit hole is filled with fun energy that can take you straight to the fourth.

see you on the astral plane.
