(✿◠‿◠) Fashion Fridays: ☠★☠Neons, Skulls 'n Bunnies ☠★☠ (◠‿◠✿)

Another Friday another splurge of fashion. Today I wanna share items and designs themed with skulls and bunnies and items that incorporate neon and florescent colors. I generally don't like to wear too many bright colors because I feel smothered or like I'm drowning, but I really love when there's otherwise plain clothes or somber colored clothed with random splotches in bright colors. I also am partial to skull designs. I love graphix skulls and cute skull designs like skulls with bows, ribbons, flowers and bunnies. ^o^
And talking about neons, who better to head this post that DJ SiSeN? ^^

Soooooo...without further ado, lets start with the skulls :).

These three tops are from Alchemy England. There are a number of their tops that I like, but I chose these ones because they all showcase different styles. Alchemy England - Shaolin Spirit Berlin (left), Alchemy England - Death Zombie Miami (middle) and Alchemy England - Cursed Praga (right).

I like the third one the most, specifically because I love long tops, aaannnnd I like stuff with the seven deadly sins X3. Moving on we have these three skull and neon tops. Couch - Nu Skelly Vest Dress (left), Couch - Nu Skelly Girl's T-shirt (middle) and Couch - Skull Star Vest Dress (right).

As far and animal stuffies go, I'm okay with animal pictures on my clothes but I prefer them not all cute and cuddly, so I especially love this Cupcake Cult - Bunny T-Shirt and of course this Death Kitty - Sophie Top as well. I'm also partial to pink x black combinations. And speaking of pink and black, while totally deviating from the topic...I recommend the webcomic (≧ω≦) Pink-Black. It's about werewolves ^^.

This Luv Bunnys - Luv Bunny Hoody is really cute. And I really like the Hell Bunny - Bad Girl Mini Skirt as well. They're both simple, but that makes them applicable for general wear for school and just hanging out, which is basically all I have the time to do recently, and not very much of the hanging out either ~_~.

Of course skull bunny must be here ≧✯◡✯≦

NewBreed Girl - Skunny Vest

I really love the degree of detail on all the Spiral clothes. This isn't my favorite item from them, but well it fits today's theme and the detail is amazing. I particularly like the feathers.

Spiral - Broken Feathers

Last but not least, also from Spiral, this amazing hoody. Front and back views. I like shinigami as well >.< and purple is my favorite color, aaaaand I love the lace ups, so this is a win win win hoody for me.

That's all for todai ^3^.

Ja ne! ♥

☜☆☞ ◕ ‿ ◕ \m/ Fashion Fridays: Chains and Straps \m/ ◕ ‿ ◕ ☜☆☞

It's been a really tough week for me, and it'll continue to be tough for a while...but I wanna continue with my blog posts and sharing the things that can help me cheer up. Today's J-rock tidbit is....*drumroll*

Versailles - Kamijo ✖‿✖

This week's theme is chains and straps.  I wanna share some awesome chain themed items and strappy items I found that I really like.

I spent most of the morning browsing Attitude Clothing. They didn't have much chain clothes, but I did find some that I liked, and they had a number of strappy items as well.
This is the best dress I found there.

Dead Threads - Graffiti Dress

Poizen Industries - Maze Vest

I also found this maze vest. I like the buckle straps that go up the sides, although it may seem like there's a bit too much going on in it, what with the staps, lace and criss-cross ribbon. I like the theme, but overall i think I don't like the relationship between the  side straps and the corset ribbon.


In the picture below I love the top, but as far as straps go, what I like are her arm sleeves.
If this was in last week's post on ribbons I would emphasize the top design more. As it is l love this overall combination, pants included. This corset, lace and straps combination fits together better than the Maze Vest.

Poizen Industries - Frill Top

These pants (Living Dead Souls - Blitz Pants) I love because from the moment I saw them I thought 'Reita'. I've dubbed them Reita Pants ٩(×̯×)۶ . I also really like the second pair on the right (Poizen Industries - Korse Pants).

And here are shoes that would go great with all of these clothes; Iron Fist - Sweet Skull O Mine Booties and Demonia - Crypto 315 Boots.

As far as chains go, I stumbled onto a site that had an interesting concept. Instead of tops with chains integrated in there make up, these are body harnesses that can be put on with any top that you want to spruce up or punk out. These are from Decarabia.

Industrial Angel

Gladiator

And from the creator of these, here are two more awesome bracelets. Personally I prefer the Charnel cuffs because for accessories I prefer a mixture of chains over anything else.

Gothic Lolita Cuff

Charnel House Cuff

And these accessories are from attitude clothing, Alchemy Gothic - Mortal Remains Earring, Zacharia - Handcuff & Gun Necklace and Poizen Industries - Buckle Sleeves.

Finally, these are some cool slave rings that I found some months ago. When I remember where I found them I'll put the link in the 'Procrastinate' section (right sidebar).

That's all for nao. I'll end with a token picture of Aki-sama. Til next time ~

Ja Ne! ♥
