This week, actually, this month, I’ve been trying to find the time to take a big long breath. Sometimes I keep myself so busy focusing on the present future that I forget where I am now and how proud I should be of getting to this point in my life! Why am I telling you this in a post with the title “Random things I bought this month”? Well, sometimes…
I’ve been watching Clueless non-stop. Cher may be totally clueless but she’s also devilishly witty and so positive in the face of any challenge. I’ve been wearing anything I can find on Dollskill! Their catalogue has been killing it. It’s the perfect combination of oddball and wearably alternative. Plus, I love the dark preppy vibe. I’ve been eating an Australian classic, Vegemite and my favourite vegan cheddar cheese on toast.…
Ahhhh! The Halloween season is finally and truly among us! How hype are you? I had the best day! Browsing Halloween stores with the best friend, rocking this amaaaazing shirt that Kate’s Clothing sent me (it has pumpkins on it!), shooting this outfit at the cemetery, and finishing the day by catching a horror movie with the boyfriend. I’m posting this a day earlier than I usually do because a).…
A witchy wardrobe update has been long overdue. I’ve spent a while cutting back and cutting back again, getting my wardrobe down to the barest of essentials, but it’s time to start having fun again. What’s this obsession humans have with yo-yo shopping. One minute we’re practicing restraint, and the next I’m buying the entire catalogue of Dollskill. Here are some tips that I’ve found have helped me update my…
Is it too far to say that I feel these stripes depict the amount of vertigo I’ve been through over the winter. Too deep? Too convoluted? As I mentioned in my last post on how to express your inner Goth kid, I’ve not been feeling myself lately. Which is why I decided to force myself to get out my camera and throw myself out of my comfort zone. This top…
Dude, I have been feeling so uninspired lately. Maybe you’ve noticed. I haven’t been posting as often as I have in the past. In all honesty, since I’ve moved and been dealing with some serious anxiety issues I feel like I haven’t been myself! (Does winter do that to anyone else?) More recently I’ve been feeling better and getting my life in check. But in lieu of getting back to…
I guess I just have a thing for indie brands that sell similar black t-shirts with occult prints. It all began with Blackcraft and now it’s onto Black Hope Curse. I blame Dollskill’s huge array of occult style clothes. How dare you provide for people with my sensibilities! Here is Australia we’re finally getting into summer. Which is the time of the year I start getting nostalgic (and jealous…
I‘ve been working on creating a new background in my new place where I can take outfit photos. It takes me quite a lot of time to get my head around working the light and angles in a new space, which is why my posts have been far and few between, especially in regard to outfits. An idea I’ve been working on has been a wall filled with cool prints!…
A couple years ago I won a giveaway from another alternative blogger where I won a bunch of Halloween candles from Bath and Body Works. I was heartbroken when I found out I can’t order them in Australia. They were so delicious smelling – pumpkin, cinnamon, vanilla; what more could you want? Well, I found a great alternative. Witch City Wicks is an indie brand of alternative candles (Ouija and…
Skeleton Catsuit – Skeleton Tee Pumpkin Tee – Frankenstein Mask Now Urban Outfitters doesn’t get a lot of Halloween decorations, but what they do get is versatile, usually wearable and (best of all) ships worldwide. They have a lot of killer masks – that Frankenstein mask is super cool – and lots of t-shirts. Oh, and I don’t know what it is about Halloween and catsuits but for some reason…
Now, I’m not one to jump on bandwagons, but while watching Grav3yard Girl’s recent video in the tag How I Did my Makeup In Highschool it really got me thinking about the makeup I wore in highschool, and how absolutely terrible it was! I did so many things I cringe at today. But they taught me a lot in the long run. Here goes. Step one: No primer, no concealer,…
