The World is a Vampire ......







Right before Christmas, "S" (of ModernGuilt) and I decided to have a clothing swap. The second I pulled this black t-shirt out of the box, I saw the brilliant red heart on it. I knew at that very moment that I loved it. At closer inspection, I realized that the "heart" was indeed made up of teeny, tiny skulls; and that's when I decided to refer to it as my Billy Corgan / Smashing Pumpkins t-shirt. So, Billy, this one's for you!! =] The button beanie, made by Knight Cat, inspired by Ali Michael, really helped set me in a punk-ified mood. Cat, I love this hat!!



The video is pretty much *silent. I suggest letting the blog song ("Everything Will be Alright" by The Killers - play while you watch.)


T-shirt: Ideal. Skirt: Behnaz Sarafpour for Target. Tights: Inc Marine. Rings: forever 21 and vintage. Button Beanie: Knight Cat. Heels: Go Jane.

To answer you ques.the profile pic on my blog is Mary-Kate Olsens hand. I of course love her Jewels, always, but she has an M on her middle finger, which is the first letter in my name!! So I had to use that. LOL

drinkupthefashion said...

as a knight cat fan i instantly recognized that hat as the one cat said she'd make for anyone willing. it looks really nice :) next time have a photoshoot where you wear that hat with your hair down.

we are kindred spirits when it comes to barbies and evaporated milk! :D

caylee said...

a clothes swap is such a good idea, especially when you find something you love!

i love the little details in your outfit; the diamond tights, strappy heels, skull heart, and especially that beanie! knightcat rocks, and you rock it well!

and is that a shower that you are in? =)

Vivian said...

oh yes, so smashing pumpkins!! you look so playful and lovely.

Krystal said...

adorable! you are such a doll. and that's such a cute idea. love you guys x

Hot Bot said...

I need to utilize go jane more often. I'm looking at the bebe version of those heels. I guess it's the closest I'll get to Chloe. *sigh*

May Kasahara said...

you are rocking those heels lady!!!!

Lissa said...

Haha this is such a cute idea--and I love that hat.

My see-through ring is from Wet Seal. It used to be chrome, but since it was so cheap all the crome wore off. Now it's clearish. My other rings are from ShopKo and Maurice's. But ShopKo is just local I think.

Oh and btw, I got my AA dresses. We will ROCK New York in them as hobos. But, and I told this to Cam too, we won't be able to meet for a while yet (2 years) because of my parents. They won't be too happy if I meet up with two bloggers they've never met before :[

Cate said...

Hiya Erika!!

Oh cool, I was first!! I came back from school about an hour ago, and it was ok.. Politics was cancelled, and in History we were only eight or so people, which was much more fun than normally, when we're 20+ people. In German we did a pop quiz, but it was fun! How's your work for the online magazine going? Have you already revealed the name of the site in a post that I maybe overlooked, or are you going to do it soon?

Kisses,
Cate
