Skulls and Polka Dots

My uneven sleeves aren't a fashion statement, I am healing a fresh Calla Lily flower tattoo on my right arm (with After Inked!) It's an odd feeling seeing as I haven't had my arms tattooed in a very long time, but it's neat to see my arm art evolve throughout the years. 

Calla Lilies are my favorite flower and it fits nicely into my Memento Mori imagery, like the shrouded urn on my wrist. Derek does such an amazing job and I am always grateful to him, yet he's the one who is always flattered that I want him to tattoo me! Of course, his artwork is beautiful, he's so talented and he always knows what I like!

+skull earrings, skull necklace & skull rose brooch: Kreepsville 666

So, I had to dress for work around a healing tattoo and decided on polka dots and a whole lot of skulls! I feel like the skull earrings and necklace are the equivalent to a creepy version of a classic pearl set. Hehe!

I Dream of Shoes : Sugar Rush by BC Footwear

I'm intrigued by these Sugar Rush wedges by BC Footwear with the interesting (almost ghostly) skull design. I'm also draw to the lace up design as it seems like this style would be comfortable for the top of the foot and would keep my narrow foot secure. 

Thank you for reading! Happy Shoe Thursday!

I Dream of Shoes : Nyx Black

I was looking for leopard print loafers and I ordered the Nyx Black by Type Z instead, but I am glad that I did! I'm a big fan of the loafer style as they are different than a ballerina flat as I find the toe box on ballerina flats too restrictive on my toes. Not that I'm going to stop wearing ballerina flats, I just like a variety and these loafers get an 'A' in the versatility and comfort department. (They also get an A++ in the price department, $21.99!)

Thank you for hanging out with me!

Skulls and a Bat, Oh My!

Lots of exciting things have happened over the past week or so, my birthday; holiday gatherings, dinner and falling into the shower-ripping down the shower curtain and hurting my knee. D'oh! No trip to the hospital, but I'm sore and thus not feeling inspired in the outfit department, but I wanted to share my Kreepsville 666 white skull necklace with the matching earrings. I feel like this little set is a twist on the classic on a white pearl necklace set, but with more edge!

I can't wait to wear the set with this awesome vintage dress!

I also have a little friend with me, who I became acquainted with while at the MAGIC tradeshow in Las Vegas, and I received him as a birthday gift from our friends Mike and Judy.Thanks guys! They are such great mind readers! The little bat is a mini purse and reminds me so much of Ice Bat, hehe!

I hope everyone is enjoying their week, now I'm off to battle through the snow to get to work.

Thank you for reading!

Outfit of the Day : Red Skull Dress

After quite a few days of not feeling well, I slipped on my new red skull dress by Folter Clothing and it instantly put a smile on my face! This cotton dress is so comfortable and the length is just perfect!

I love cute novelty print dresses, but I tend to shy away unless it's a print I can live with...and these lovely big skulls had to be mine. Then again if something is covered in bats I tend to run to it, hug it and want it and love it forever and ever! 

Derek and I went out for a drink and he commented, "Oh, is that dress new?!". He liked it. :)

What I'm wearing:

-sweater, c/o Sourpuss Clothing

-dress, Folter Clothing

-patent waist belt, similar

-black leggings

-boots, Dr. Martens

-necklace by Classic Hardware, similar

Shoes! OMG! : New Rider Platform Bootie

I must admit I am a sucker for red shoes, even though I only own one pair (D'oh!). The New Rider Platform Bootie by Iron Fist caught my attention as I love booties, buckles and red with black. I have to admit I'm not too crazy about the skull print, yet I think it works with the design of this particular bootie, as the black buckles and folded ankle details take center stage. I would pair these with some black skinny jeans or leggings and a moto style jacket to put emphasis on the booties while pairing together an outfit.
