green eyebrows and vibes

So today I did many a fun thing, but I'll discuss those things later in life (tomorrow) because I want to direct all my focus towards something AMAZING.

I decided to stalk some delicious designers and clothing via style.com about 5 minutes. I thought I'd look at the Marc Jacobs collection, but then I saw MEADHAM AND KIRCHHOFF and I was like OOH EVEN BETTER (no offense, Marc. You're still ZE MAN to me.) So as I'm looking at these amazing clothes I'm actually DYING INSIDE. I was getting so many vibes from their previous collection, along with Rayanne Graff vibes and Creatures of the Wind vibes and my vibe meter was just exploding and dancing with the skill and precision only attainable by the one and only Sam Shakusky.
Soooooooo pretty. Princess Chelsea is rad. 


Vibes via Meadham and Kirchhoff's Spring 2012 RTW collection.

Vibes via Creatures of the Wind! With all the collars and the plaids and the crazy layering how could you not reference COTW?

Her jacket has an actual MONSTER ON IT (Where the Wild Things Are vibe connection.) And they have all these super cute patches all over their denim attire! Not to mention their hair is quite similar to that of George Washington.

More denim and patches and amazingness! And all these WIGS. I want a wig!

Alien vibes. I love that intense peter pan collar and the semi-see through part of the dress with the colorful tiers and awesome drapery. I like her red face and her bow as well, she reminds me a ton of Dr. Seuss. Dr. Seuss vibes! Look at that thing coming out of her head! And her beautiful red skin, I love it!

I took this photo the other day because I covered my eyebrows in green glitter goop and I just looked SUPER COOL (I made that crown [it happens to have googley eyes on it because I have crown swag] and I'll be selling it on my etsy account asap! It will soon be filled to the brim with awesome crowns and cool creations created by me as I create them at rapid speed while being creative!) (woah props to me for using so many variations of the word CREATE.) If I ever get to go to fashion week (hint, hint...) I'm definitely going to wear green glitter on my eyebrows, because I actually think it looks really pretty! Especially with my wobbly looking lipstick and my pink rose earrings that are super vintage looking and semi broken.

creatures of the wind

I recently stumbled upon this AMAZING designing duo, Shane Gabier and Chris Peters, who are the genius behind the label Creatures of the Wind. I've never felt such a strong connection to any design label before, and I immediately fell in love with their Fall 2012 Ready-to-Wear collection. I loved how it was so surreal and magical, but was full of badass and hardcore fairy-witch vibes rather than the typical magical vibes of "fragile cotton candy butterfly fairy who can die if you sneeze on her." I also loved all the deconstructed (was kind of getting some color blocking vibes but with patterns) looks and clothes, and how there were words written on the shirts and shawls which is awesome because it just makes the clothes even more intriguing. Not to mention there were collars on practically EVERYTHING. I was totally digging the longer skirt action, too. I'm so glad knee-length skirts are making a comeback, because I love them more than anything and it has been a challenge trying to hunt some interesting ones down at Goodwill when the world seems obsessed with mini skirts and hot pants (which is totally fine, just not my thing.) I was in LOVE with all the deconstructed plaid collared shirts. They are too beautiful to be called "flannels" so I am going to try and think of a worthy title to give them. I honestly could just go on and on about how I love every single little detail in all of these clothes, like the lace detail on the shoulders, the plaid dress with the sweater, the neon shoe straps, the Stephen King vibes that make it all the better, and the fact that a Bernard Herrmann song would go perfectly with the aura of the entire collection.

And lastly, I'd like to add a picture of me being witchy, in spirit of all these ethereal, haunting vibes floating around. I took this while alone in my bedroom, at night, when I was in the mood to channel my undiscovered Salem Witch Trial ancestors.
