In case you don’t know, I’m a horror fan and a half. What am I talking about, how could you not know? As such, lately I’ve been obsessively looking into horror boxes. The thing about mystery boxes that gets me, is that you never know whether the box is worth the price. You know, worth the price in your life. The Horror Block is my current top runner, but I…
Finally, the semester is over and I’m back to this whole blogging thing! This outfit is pretty simple, but it’s a combination I’ve been wearing a lot lately. Oh, and do you notice anything different about me? I’m in the middle of growing out my undercut and have been experimenting with “normal” hair styles. What do you think? This beautiful cemetery, that I have featured before in past outfits, is…
Bare with me while I get used to taking photos in my new apartment. Although, it’s promising that we live right down the road from my favourite old-timey graveyard – how cool is that? Speaking of cool, it was very cool of True Corset to send me one of their, you-named-it, corsets to wear and review. If you’ve been following this blog from the beginning (I know some of you…
Last Halloween I dabbled in some special FX by producing a series of horror outfits while covered in stitched up wounds, burns and general gore. Obviously, I’m just a beginner! But I’m obcessed with watching tutorials and videos by some online personalities that are far from beginners! Here are my favourite YouTube Special FX artists that create amazing tutorials on how to transform yourself into a monster! We all need…
Here are some practical steps I’ve inadvertently taken that have made me happier with my closet and hopefully they’ll work for you! Clothing and identity come hand in hand. Which means that sometimes we feel the pressure of fitting into which ever subculture we follow, or to staying up to date – that doesn’t just mean following trends but consuming because we’re “bored” or “unhappy” with our current closet. But…
What better way to welcome myself back into blogging than with a new post in my Alt Update series! I’ve successfully moved into my new place, but in the meantime I’ve been spending a lot of time trawling Facebook and other sites for spooky posts and alternative news. This time around we have: Where My Goths At? It’s a question anyone in the subculture has probably unironically asked before. This…
Blouse is thrifted (originally from Cotton On) Vegan leather shorts by Bad Vibes Mod Boot from Nasty Gal Bucket bag from Gypsy Warrior This is a different kind of day to night. My camera battery has been playing up, it won’t charge properly, and so when I was finally able to take these pictures there were only a specks of sunlight left in the day. By the time I was…
Dolls Kill skirt – Little Whip Raglan Shirt – Gypsy Warrior Tie Dye dress Gypsy Warrior Tassel Choker – Tunnel Vision O-ring choker – Current Mood faux-fur bag Holy hell, where have I been? It’s only appropriate that I return from my little two week hiatus with a retail therapy wishlist because I’ve been a massive stress ball all this month. I’m trying to work two jobs, move into my…
It’s that time again, where we update ourselves on whats happening in the Alternative scene and online! We have a little bit of Tesco drama and a lot of flashbacks into some original alt scenes. As usual, let me know your thoughts and let me know your links to your favourite pieces of news. This is a community after all! For more awesome links that relate to alternative lifestyles check…
I wore this makeup look in my recent outfit post when I wore my new Harley Davidson skirt. Almost immediately I knew I wanted to do a tutorial for it! All of the products are cruelty free and most of them as vegan as well! Check it out and let me know, would you wear it?
Don’t tell anyone, but lately I’ve been thinking about growing out my undercut. I’ve had this undercut/sidecut/half mohawk kind of haircut for eight years now. Although it maybe sound silly, my hair has become a huge part of myself. Hair is a really emotional thing. We spend years growing it, hundreds of dollars taking care of it, and put careful consideration into any new style we want. Especially when it…
