BLACK LACE.







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?

SNAKE IN THE GRASS.






Käärme Acid Bath vest & FDNG/D-Beat tee, Actual Pain leggings, Rick Owens boots, Supreme tote bag, vintage Chanel headscarf, I.D. nameplate necklace c/o Drawn & Quartered, grenade pendant (?), cabochon lightening bolt ring c/o L.S.D. skull ring c/o Alberto Juan, all other rings vintage or custom sterling.





The purple version of the Acid Bath vest has been sold out for a while now, but we still have a couple in the "gold" colorway I am wearing here. They'll be up on the Käärme webstore this weekend, but if you would like to order yours before they disappear, shoot us an email.





I was so excited when I saw these snakeskin print nylon totes hit the Supreme webshop, so I had to grab one in this killer green color before they vanished. If they're not sold out already I totally recommend this bag. If you don't care for green, it's also available in blue or gray, and comes with a neat little clip-on change bag thing. It is unlined nylon but surprisingly sturdy nonetheless -- it performed well as both my purse AND diaper bag yesterday when we took a trip to Maryland to visit my in-laws.



We at Käärme are super excited to announce our upcoming collaboration with L.A.-based M.A.V. M.A.V.'s demented 80s Nardcore vibe (think: RKL, JFA, Ill Repute) will be colliding in a violently awesome way with Käärme Concepts to bring you a special breed of totally offensive, corrupt streetwear in the very near future. Keep checking back here for updates on M.A.V. x Käärme. Check out Weezy in his own M.A.V. tee:



I spot an Aus-Rotten patch on that vest, which fucking rules!

I've taken a slew of outfit photos in the past few days, so I am going to go out on a limb and promise more frequent posting ... one thing I can promise for sure is a sweet giveaway coming up this weekend. Stay tuned! xo

SHIP OF FOOLS.







Ovate "Valhalla" hoodie (thanks Jeni for the tip!), Kaarme Play 2 Die sleeveless tee, Bona Drag lace bellbottoms, JC "Lana" platform boots (again, sorry -- they're super comfy) , vintage Balenciaga shades, vintage bag courtesy of Factory Handbook





"chuck" muskrat skull anti-rosary, "stolas" mink bone necklace, and "naughty samantha" cross vial earring (it's empty, chill) all courtesy of Iconoclast, cabochon cocktail ring courtesy of Hard Candy Gems, vintage poison ring, sterling lightning bolt cocktail ring & human tooth ring courtesy of L.S.D., Margiela powder-coated brass bangle & matching ring, Monserat de Lucca measuring tape bangle.




Look ma: two posts in a row, two consecutive days! This is mostly thanks to a few mega-talented jewelry artists who have sent me treasures as of late -- Iconoclast Creations being one of them. Expect wayyy more of Iconoclast on here ... I'll definitely be bringing all of these beaties to L.A. with me on Friday. Speaking of which, I'll say once again: if you see me there -- blogger buddies, readers, whatever -- please come up and say hi! I may look nuts but I'm actually a pretty nice chick.

The next time you hear from me I'll be in sunny California, supporting Bobby & the good people from 9.14 Pictures & IFC/Sundance Selects. Adios! &hearts

THROTTLE YA BLUE.







Jac Vanek t-shirt, Twisted Lamb x Skingraft leggings, Skingraft talon bag, Balenciaga s/s '11 boots, "Suspendo" pendant by Käärme, Ann-Sofie Back shade,. devil's hand cuff courtesy of Actual Pain, shit-ton of sterling rings.






Too exhausted to do some actual blogging, so here is this post lazily briefly summarized:

1) My hair is turquoise. Love it.
2) My bag and leggings are both from Skingraft. Love them.
3) The amazing huge stone cocktail rings were sent to me courtesy of Hard Candy Gems. I have some exciting news re: HCG to share in the remote future. Be excited, be-be excited. Jucify you! Love it.
4) The script tattoo on my arm is new and says "Easy Livin'," my little homage to Uriah Heep. Love it.
5) I can't take off our Suspendo (hanged man) pendant. He'll be available for purchase soon -- the Fast Drums, Numb Gums lookbook will go live on 010312, and the new merchandise will be hitting the webshop HARD by 011112. Love it.

Hope you all had joyful holidays! I, myself, am anti-joy. Therefore, I spent Christmas morning (after watching my son devour his mountain of presents, of course) watching the Lifetime Movie Network in footie PJs, eatching Ben and Jerry's peach cobbler ice cream.

FAST DRUMS, NUMB GUMS.


Impaler spiked leather messenger bag; Der Todesking II shirt.


Browbeater spiked leather hat; Play to Die shirt.


Suspendo sterling pendant.


Maverick splatter jeans in green & red colorways. Fast Drums Numb Gums shirt on Al, Cephalobong shirt on me.


TOTAL shirt.

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:


powder-coated brass triple pyramid stud ring in black or white.


tall sterling etched cuff.


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
