From the Garden

dress + underskirt, thrifted; belt, jcpenny; tights, xxi; pocketwatch, etsy, tempestfugit; hair pieces, diy; boots, doc martens

 

A lot of people told me I looked like I had climbed out of a garden/was a garden.
I was going more for my mori-ness which is how I feel most comfortable, lots of fabric. I love my underskirt and wore it because the dress is too heavy without support underneath xD
I love these tights because the floral is almost the exact same as on the dress. I thought they were the same as first but they're a little different, actually.

Technicolor Cat

(belt + tanktop-skirt; hand-me-down, shirt + sweater; thrifted, cat charm, socks + tights, gifted,
tuk creepers; garage sale, necklace; clothing swap, hair pieces; diy)

outfit from two days ago. forgive the crappy picture quality. I had to charge my camera and it wasn't done until the sun went down.

I've been waiting to wear this sweater forever and I got up and thought, "Hey, it's been getting colder out, I think I'll wear my angora monster today." Naturally, it was 90 out and I sweltered. (Hence the dead!face).

giorgia longstocking

I wanted to post pictures of the thrift store, hand-me-down, and chinatown scores I got on my trip to SoCal, but the camera got sand in it and I'm currently fearing for my life and figuring out how to fix it. And I lost my phone-computer cord so I can't use that as a camera.

However, I do want to make a post about tights and stockings since I'm obsessed with them and need to figure out a way to get more.

In my dreams I could afford a pair of Black Milk leggings like these

The skeletons are my favorite but I did find these more cartoony ones on Amazon

I just have an issue with the fact that they have the word 'anorexic' in their title.




I found these printed tights on mytights.com and I think they're wonderful, but they're around $20 a pair except the sheers, which are $7. I guess I'll just have to choose a printed one (probably the bug ones) and some sheers when I get my money from dogsitting.

storybook girl

As nice as it is to laze around, I really enjoyed having somewhere to be today and getting dressed. I don't really feel myself if I'm not jangling or swathed in layers.






overshirt: hand-me-down, tank: forever21, vest: forever21, skirt:forever21, tights: fanplusfriend, shoes: doc marten, hair pieces: daiso + diy, jewelry: hand-me-down + forever21, rings: springtime creations, claire's, hand-me-down


I went to scrap today and for the first half hour or so I couldn't find anything I liked except some bottles. Then I found this little iron and copper doll shoe and these old book covers. I'm going to make bags out of them I'm so excited.




This one is my favorite. I'm keeping the bag from this guy but the other's I'm going to post on etsy.
