Headdresses are so last year...


Headdresses, again?

Isn’t it time the hipsters move on to something else before it gets cool?

So, we had the redemption of Paul Frank, followed by No Doubt's release of the clueless “Looking Hot” video and subsequent apology.  (Can someone please tell me why Gwen Stefani is throwing a coup stick?) Finally, Victoria's Secret got into the act. Then, after receiving the loving e-mails of our people and allies, they issued their own apologies (just in time for us to take advantage of the Panty Party sale, I might add.)

I, like you, have read a lot of “Lighten up, people!” comments.  So, in the interest of lightening up, I searched the internet for some really ridiculous headdresses we could all point at, laugh, and feel better about ourselves because we never left the house in these monstrosities.

Bear woman was one with trees.

Here, I'm going to make up an ancient story about a bear that fell in love with a tree.  As you can see, it ended tragically when their only tree-cub died becoming a robe for a confused performance art student.

Ikto so loved the horned woman he spun his web around her.

Then, it got really dirty.
That other woman might be the fearless leader of the tree sprites, but we can't be sure.



Relax she's not wearing that...

She's being eaten.



Hmmm... What breed of dog am I thinking of?

Look! It's our old friends Huginn and Muninn!

(Maybe not Native-inspired, but when else will I get in an Odin joke?)

Probably not Native-inspired...

...but it has feathers so, I'm putting it in here anyway.


Blog Goddess’s note: I wish I could think of an interesting excuse for being silent for so long, like maybe I went to prison for a while for streaking around the Cherokee Nation Headquarters.  Sadly, no. Instead I went back to college and landed a job with a software company. <3 you all!

Oh, and don't forget November 18 is the first-annual "Wear Your Wolf Shirt Day".  Send me photos of you and your wolf shirt! Wanishi!

Doublewide decor and other places you don't want to be... (SFW)

My Daddy sent me this picture :)
Does something stink in here?  Oh, sorry, it's me...ayeee.  Yes, after spending four plus hours in the VeeDub, I'm back from Oklahoma.  Did you know there are folks living down there without wifi?  I was chained by a yellow cable in a little, back room all alone...  Anyway, nothing reminds me of Oklahoma more than bad decor.  It's everywhere!  It's the Oklahoma equivalent of "that local mediocre sports team that you must be a fan of cause they're local...here, have a lamp!"  Yes, I'm saying, Native Inspired schlock fills the NFL schlock-void.  Not to mention, it denigrates those who were forced to live there only to have most of  that land taken, too.  The land-theft, I mean Land-run is  re-ennacted every to rub it in to celebrate the state's shameful proud history .  Okay, done ranting, back to decor?

So, you know you're at the right trailer when you see this:
From my favorite decor site, collections.com
Wouldn't this look great above the door?
From the Hamilton collection (yes, the same people who brought you The Unicorn DreamCatcher)

 Look Ma! It's a Thomas Kinkade!

Another Treasure from the Hamilton Collection, yes you should look at it up close! It's fabulous!
This reminds me of a story.  A friend of mine started dating  a new guy.  She said, "You really like him.  He collects art!"  Of course, the guy turned out be a middle-age, balding, overweight, divorced, retail manager.  Okay, he was nice.  However, when I asked him about his much touted art collection, it turned out he collected Thomas Kinkade - Painter of light.  You can imagine how fun it was for my husband to watch me squirm and discuss "The Art of Thomas Kinkade" with a straight face.  No, my friend and the guy didn't work out.  Amazingly, she decided he was "a loser" completely on her own and without taking his "art collection" into consideration.  Anyway, I'm pretty sure he has this thing on a side table near his floral couch.

Bratz, now in winged stereotypes!
The Hamilton Collection never disappoints!  

This is from Jasmine Becket-Griffith's Spirit Maidens Figurine Collection. Spirit Maiden? Really? It reminds me of those pixies my mother collected in the seventies, only racist.


You know that old white guy with the bone-choker you see at Walmart?
You think he has one of these on his wall?
From, guess where?  The Hamilton Collection, whose slogan is "Collectables Inspired By You!"  Yes, you are to blame for this!  Can you stop inspiring already?


ZOMG! What time is it?
From Collections etc
I love the description on this one, "Table clock features a Native American style sculpted base with a maiden princess and her wolf spirit guide looking heavenward with the hope of being showered with good fortune from the dreamcatcher above. Requires 1 "AA" battery (not included). Crafted of plastic and resin" 

WTF?

Yes, from Collections Etc
I don't even have to make fun of it.  Read the decsription, "Birds will love to pow-wow in the confines of this cozy Native American style teepee birdhouse. It has a perch outside where two birds are busy and an opening for birds to enter. Charms dangle from its bottom. Hanging hook and cleanout door in the base."
Yep, you read that right, it's a bird Pow-wow.  Never mind the weirdness of feather headdresses on birds, that's right up there with chickens eating McNuggets, but why is the cradle-board hanging upside down?
