Endovanera cloak, Ann-Sofie Back safety pin top, Actual Pain leggings, Margiela heels, Givenchy bag. All jewelry courtesy of Adelina Mictlan.
I don't have to say much about Adelina Mictlan's new collection; the pieces speak for themselves. Here I am sporting my rose gold 2-finger DOOM ring (this is now available in sterling and black or white powder-coat), my new VI VI VI slave bracelet (how amazing is it?), crescent moon earrings (these come in a larger version as well), and borrowed my husband's ram skull necklace because it goes so well with the rest of the pieces. I kept with the theme by pairing everything with these occult leggings by Actual Pain, and my Margiela "hoof" heels which compliment the rusty rose gold tone of Mictlan's jewelry. The Endovanera cloak always reminds me of that sludge band SUNN O)))))))
We're working hard to get Kaarme's new lookbook online within the next couple of days and have the new pieces available to purchase later on this week. This collection cost so much blood, sweat, and tears but is SO worth it and I have to say I'm very proud. I'll keep yall posted. xo

Some previews of Käärme's new lookbook for our second collection, Fast Drums Numb Gums. The collection in its entirety will be available for purchase through our webshop the first week of January 2012. Ring in the new year by bludgeoning someone with the messenger bag, right? Much thanks to Al Gar for posing for our pictures and looking badass in the clothes.
Suspendo (aka the hanged man)
I've been absolutely swamped in every way recently, but I promise I will give myself a kick in the ass and start being a proper blogger. Tomorrow I'll be doing a feature post on the incredible new Adelina Mictlan collection. My husband has been rocking the rose gold ram skull pendant nonstop, and I am waiting on a really fucking cool slave bracelet that, true to its name, will probably never leave my hand. Gentlemen, I know you're scrambling to buy your lady the perfect xmas gift ... rest assured, she will not snub her nose at these:

me wearing my 2-finger rose gold DOOM ring. So many people compliment me on this ring; it's gotten to the point that when I wear it out, I put a bunch of Ms. Mictlan's business cards in my bag before I leave the house. They're usually all gone by the time I get home, haha.
Not only are these pieces (and a boatload of others on the A. Mictlan web shop) ready to ship (most Adelina Mictlan pieces have a 3+ week wait, as they are made to order), but they're really affordable as well, especially for the quality of Ms. Mictlan's work. And just look at them. Who wouldn't want to wear this stuff on the regs?
Hope the holidays aren't kicking your asses too hard ,,, don't forget to kick back, drink a pumpkin latte (I recommend 7-11's rendition of the beverage) and just relax. I hate seeing people miserable around the holidays because they are under a titanic amount of stress. It's not worth it! &hearts

These were taken so long ago, and I have no excuse for the delay. We just returned from an amazing trip to Sweden where Pentagram played the Muskelrock festival. We sat in the sun on the beautiful countryside, spoke with so many good people, and got to check out some great music. I saw Girlschool who I have loved for years. My one regret is that I did not get to see Graveyard, because our shuttle was leaving to get back to the hotel at that time. I also did not take any photos, and have no excuse for that either. I have to go back there next year! Not much of a reason for me to return home from such a lovely place except for our little boy, who has me in constant awe. Him, and the fact that Käärme jewelry finished last week and the shop is just about ready to launch. This jewelry, I have to say, is so fucking cool. One piece in particular I really wanted to wear on our trip, but left it at home in fear that customs could imagine it being used as a weapon, and I do not have the mold immediately handy to make a replacement right away. More soon!
Fraggle cape by Endovanera, Rodarte zombie t-shirt, Topshop maxi skirt, Jeffrey Cambell Lana boots, BOYY Slash bag, cheap no-name shades, nude leather bracelets by Bless, two-finger rose gold DOOM ring courtesy of Adelina Mictlan, Driftwood Skull ring (Opening Ceremony NYC years ago).
Okay, so I've fallen into the JC Lita trap. So what? This is a well-designed and beautifully crafted shoe, and they make pretty much any outfit look decent. This particular pair is the Lana, which has been described as "Lita's curvy twin." I would say that Lana is more like Lita's sister -- I personally feel Lana has a slightly higher platform (I'm probably wrong) and a much sturdier heel. For me, those things make for a reallly comfortable shoe. I don't know what it is, but I didn't even want to take these off at the end of the day (as a matter of fact, it's nearly 12:AM and I'm still wearing them). So, yes these are SUPER trendy, but I love them. Awesome shoe. I'm tempted to get the black/white jaguar ponyhair version, but my shoe situation is a little out of control right now. Still in love with my Adelina Mictlan doom ring; I've been loving a lot of her stuff lately. Expect a post soon with one of her three-finger (yes, three) rings coming up soon, matched with the first pair of bellbottoms I've worn in 12 years. Yay!

This cape was an early bday present from my husband -- he got it from I Don't Like Mondays, which is the only shop I know of that carries Endovanera. I have to say it's pretty much my most favorite garment in my wardrobe. I wear this piece with everything. It reminds me of the cloaks the guys in SUNN O))) used to wear. I love the gray/green color with the black detailing, the deep hood & pockets, and the sleeves that "hang like sleeve of wizard." Sorry, I had to.
This shirt fits me again; siked! This is about the smallest shirt I'll wear, especially a poly/cotton blend like this one. I've always loved this shirt. The print is sick, and the material is really nice. These sunglasses are great; after seeing the gold-rimmed ones on the amazing Christine, I knew I had to have them. I picked the ones with the black frames, to match my soul.
Much thanks to the lovely people at Joan Shepp for the birthday shoutout on their blog:
in this photo of us (courtesy of Joan Shepp) at the Ivan Grundahl trunk show, I am wearing *the* most amazing Dries Van Noten maryjanes, but you can't see the best part: the chunky heel, which has a holographic-y, oil-in-a-puddle finish. Really been lusting hard over the green clutch from that collection. Also wearing: Ann Sofie-Back safety pin shirt, Topshop maxi skirt.
