In shrouds decayed

In case you haven’t noticed, I enjoy dressing like a swamp witch.

The dress is a brand called Sugardaddy. It’s a bit of a nightmare to wear; the loose-knit part is extremely delicate. It’s always catching on things and fraying a little more, though I expect more damage will make it look cooler.

I compel you!

The fraying aound the wrists that gives the sleeves a bit of a bell shape is my favorite part. I think this bracelet came from one of the vendors at Folklife, my city’s annual hippie/crust punk/getting wasted in public extravaganza.

Leggings from Actual Pain. I’m glad to see them expanding from just printing t-shirts, because these are awesome. These were from their first leggings release perhaps a year ago, and they just debuted a second line with a wider variety of prints. Though I’m usually a “never wear leggings as pants” person, I had to make an exception for these. I mean, come on. Satan thighs. Of course I was sold.

The shoes are the Everest by Jeffrey Campbell. Though they’re definitely stilts, I get a lot of use out of tem because they go with everything and they’re stupid comfortable. I even wore these on my 21st birthday a few days ago, and was able to walk the drunken mile from the bar to my house without stumbling once! They look a little worse for wear (before I owned these they belonged to a friend of mine), but the distressed leather looks fine with some added scuffs.

I’ve been layering longer necklaces along with my usual pentagram lately. The large pendant is from a Tibetan jewelry store in San Francisco. If anyone knows what kind of stone this is, I’d love to find out! The altar boy necklace is from Osteal – I love this girl to death, and she makes incredible pieces so you should check her out.

P.S.: Notice that these photos are looking a little nicer than usual? I finally got a respectable camera for my birthday! My hope is that it won’t reek of amateur hour in here anymore (although I’m still working on post formatting, so sorry for the lack of consistency there). While we’re apologizing, I know I need to do a text post soon, but I’ve been lazy. I promise I’ll get around to it.

    Loving everything about that dress, lady! Keep up with this blog and I might gather enough inspiration to one day actually look cute at shows.

    The stone is Labradorite.
