1800-EAT-SHIT tee c/o Blood is the New Black, leather shorts (?), vintage green leather jacket, UNIF platform boots, Christian Audigier studded nylon & leather bag ... shark tooth pendant on chain c/o Vanessa Mooney, Nosferatu pendant c/o L.S.D., 2-finger hummingbird ring c/o Blood Milk, butterfly skeleton ring in sterling c/o Concrete Polish, "Baphomet" ring c/o Actual Pain.
It's been forever, right? The past couple of months have been crazy between working on finishing up Kaarme collection #03 & being on the road in Europe w/ Pentagram (which was a shit=load of fun -- thanks to all of my readers who came to say hi over there!), but I'm back now. This was just a quickie so I could share one of several awesome gifts Blood is the New Black sent me awhile ago ... speaking of whom, yall can expect a Blood is the New Black x Kaarme capsule collection to arrive in early 2013. Jucify you! Be excited, be-be excited! More soon. x
T-shirt c/o VOW, Kaarme "Gemini" studded cutoffs, vintage David Ackerman boots, Skingraft talon bag, pink druzy ring c/o Hard Candy Gems, "split" stone ring c/o Union Studio, earrings c/o Vanessa Mooney, bracelet via eBay, all other rings vintage sterling.
VOW makes the best destroyed tees. I received this super soft one awhile back, which is part of their second collection. If destroyed is not your jam, VOW also offers non-destroyed versions of all of their designs.
I'm on a roll, yeah? More soon. xo
No. 666 tee c/o Killer Condo, faux leather laced-up pants via eBay, Ann Demeulemeester triple-lace boots, Jil Sander shades, BOYY Slash bag, pink druzy & speckled jasper cocktail rings (right index & middle) c/o Hard Candy Gems; "Love Angels" rosary necklace, tri-color "Serpent" ring (left middle), & "Poison" earrings c/o Vanessa Mooney; lapis ring (left index) & random sterling ring (right ring) both vintage, all bracelets purchased by Bobby in Europe except for the Tiffany's padlock.
I got these pants for dirt cheap off of glorious eBay, along with a cornucopia of other sick pants, leggings, and overalls (yes, overalls -- and yes, I made them look badass), which you'll see in the very remote future. The shirt was sent to me from the amazing people over at Killer Condo ... it is also available in black, which I have as well. KC's tees are so soft and whenever I wear them out, I get a slew of "omg-where-did-you-get-that-shirt" compliments from passer-bys. Love, love, love. I'm also loving my new pink druzy ring, courtesy of Hard Candy Gems. HCG's treasures are not only stand-out gaudy-gorgeous, but amazingly comfortable; both my husband and I wear their rings on a daily basis. I have purchased statement pieces online for triple the price of what a Hard Candy Gems piece runs for, only to be disappointed by the crappy quality. Trust this woman when I say this to you right now: you CANNOT go wrong with HCG.
I'm going to end this post on an extremely positive note by making a very exciting announcement. I'm so honored that Troma Productions (the legendary horror film company responsible for classics like the Toxic Avenger series, Terror Firmer, and Blood Sucking Freaks) contacted the nefarious scoundrels at Käärme Concepts and asked us to provide the costumes for their current production, Return to Nuke 'Em High. Return to Nuke 'Em High will be the fourth installment in the Nuke 'Em High series (read more on Nuke 'Em High here, and we at Käärme are majorly pumped to see our gear on the Cretins, the leading ladies, and the other cast members. So we're warning you now: watch Return to Nuke 'Em High when it unleashes itself on Netflix, Redbox, On Demand, etc etc etc, or we'll make sure the next joint you smoke is radioactive weed and you puke a baby monster into a toilet bowl ;)
Class of Nuke 'Em High - 1986
More soon! I've been killin' it with semi-frequent posting, yeah?
Death/Traitors tank top, Levi's cutoffs, Demonia suede creepers, 2-tone bag c/o VOW, vintage leopard print blouse c/o Factory Handbook. Turquoise necklace, turquoise bracelet, & triple stack ring c/o Vanessa Mooney. Jaw bone necklace c/o Iconoclast; vintage sterling rings, L.S.D. tooth ring, & Bless leather bracelet (right hand), talon earring c/o Blood Milk.
Just discovered Death/Traitors -- awesome shit. It reminds me of listening to Gauze in my bedroom 10 years ago, in the summer, with no a/c. And wearing some white creepers that I splattered with red paint to look like blood. I stupidly sold those creepers a long time ago. These suede Demonias have been my staple kicks for the duration of the summer. I thought my new duo-tone VOW tote bag was sufficiently matchy-matchy. VOW haven't made this red/black shopper available online yet, but I'm told they'll be on there soon alongside the sleek all black and all red versions. Expect to see both labels' sick streetwear styled on here with great freak-uency.
I've received a lot of jewelry from a lot of incredible designers in the past several months, but raising a little boy who is just entering his terrible (still adorable, but emphasis on terrible) twos leaves nil room for ultra cool, yet cumbersome statement pieces. Imagine my relief when I opened a package c/o Vanessa Mooney last week, which was stuffed with the designers' practical, yet stand-out creations. Mooney manages to offer pieces that are both on-trend, timeless, and no-matter-what wearable -- something that is almost impossible to find in the contemporary accessories market. Beyond the lovely craftsmanship made evident by pain-staking detail, down to etching on the band of a sterling ring or beadwork on a striking turqoiuse and brass cuff, you'll find that every piece in VM's newest collection is within a totally reasonable price bracket. The bracelet I'm wearing in these photos is now on my husband's wrist, and he normally snubs anything that is not solid sterling (he loves it so much that if I ever want it back, I'll have to take it when he's sound asleep). Bravo, Ms. Mooney.
More soon! x
