Vena Cava designers Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai are currently gearing up for a quirky online garage sale June 1 that will surely have cool-girl fashion fans in a tizzy.

In true garage sale style, the hodgepodge of items up for grabs comes straight from both ladies' personal collections and includes everything from old paperbacks, a YSL safari jacket, and Vena Cava clothing to bizarre items like a misspelled Vena Cava friendship bracelet, a 1982 Volvo station wagon, and Mayock's birth certificate, Social Security card, and self-esteem (sold as a set).

For the entire month of June, the items will be available to purchase on venacavanyc.com, in conjunction with Subports, a company developing text-to-buy technology.

So, just why did the ladies delve into this funny little project? StyleList caught up with them to find out.

StyleList: Why a garage sale?
Sophie Buhai: We wanted to clean out our closets, and what better way to do it than online! We were trying to create a virtual stoop sale.

SL: Are you both big garage sale shoppers?
Lisa Mayock: Huge. We're both from L.A., the land of seriously epic garage sales. I remember going to one in high school that was an entire furnished house exploding with strange and wonderful goodies. Everything was for sale and almost all of it was under $20. I think they may have had a hoarding problem.

SL: What are your best garage-sale purchases?
LM: A '40s couture Givenchy dress for $5 and an entire set of '30s Depression glassware.
SB: A sword.

SL: How did you choose what you're putting up for your sale?
SB: They were all beloved pieces that we once owned, all personal picks, and they really reflect the personality of Vena Cava.

SL: Were there any items that you almost put into the mix, then pulled back?
SB: Yes, live animals got edited, as well as people's souls -- although we are selling Lisa's self-esteem.

SL: We saw that! Why are you giving up your birth certificate, Social Security card, and self-esteem?
LM: That idea of sneaking into someone else's world has always intrigued me. I think most people have fantasies every so often of being someone else.

SL: If you were shopping your own online garage sale, what would you grab first?
LM: It's a tie between the cream suede YSL safari jacket and a bright yellow circular '60s telephone that I got at St. Vincent de Paul in L.A. for $3.
SB: I'm a fan of the "Bad Dates" book. It has all the worst '80s celebrities sharing their date horror stories. Retro Us Weekly material. Very highbrow.
