All Hallows Eve

I'm not sure what I want to be for Halloween yet, I'm kicking around a couple of ideas.

A Witch, like Sarah Jessica Parker in Hocus Pocus

 


A Fairy, like Shannen Doherty in Charmed. (She's dressed as a witch, but I think I would make it a fairy costume.)



I would make a headband like Diane Von Furstenberg's, for the fairy costume.


A Hippie

 


Or Princess Leia from Star Wars


Any other ideas?

Witch

I've been trying to get into the Halloween mood by renting some old movies. One movie I don't know why I've never seen was The Witches of Eastwick. I didn't love the movie, and was tempted to turn it off at so many points, but the clothing is what made me keep watching. Especially Susan Sarandon, her look in this movie is killer, her clothes and hair reminded me of magazine spreads that I would see today. Even Cher's clothing in the movie was intense. I couldn't find the best pictures to truly demonstrate the amazingness of their clothes and hair, but here are some teasers until you go out and watch the movie yourself.








Wildfox's Fall 2010 Preview did a witchcraft theme, you can see the similarities between the movie and photos, especially the hair in the photo below.

In Shoe Love

I am absolutely obsessed with Jeffrey Campbell's Lita shoe, all of the different colours and textures are to die for. Would it be wrong for one girl to own eleven different colours of the same shoe? My new found love for Jeffrey Campbell is really going to put a dent in my bank account (or my visa).

Addicted

So lately (since I got OSAP), I've been spending way to much money. I'm addicted to online shopping and have been receiving parcels about twice a week, and going to malls on a regular basis, some photos of my purchases in the last couple days are below. Please Help.




















This doesn't even include all of my online purchases.

Marc Jacobs went very seventies with his new collection. Here are some of my favourite looks of the Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 ready-to-wear collection.














The following one is my favourite.

Girl Crush

I recently discovered this girl band when I was browsing Cobrasnake's photos. I was captivated by their look first and then started listening to their music. I'm so happy to have found them because I was in dire need of a new girl band to listen to. The band is called "The Like" and it consists of four girls: Z Berg on the guitar and vocals, Tennessee Thomas on the drums, Laena Geronimo on the bass, and Annie Monroe on the organ. Their music is 60s style and so are their outfits. I love their sound, their look, and their clothes. Most of their lace numbers are from Lover, they are an Australian brand and you can find them here.

Cut-Out

I recently attempted to make one of those cut-out skull shirts I keep seeing pop up everywhere. I think I did a pretty decent job, I cut the eyes a little to high but here is the original picture of inspiration and my creation.




I got the inspiration image off of Google Images.
