You guys know how I feel about big, shiny colorful statement necklaces from my previous accessories post [Neck Me]. Really into this designer,  Allison Hessert, and specifically this piece on Closetista. I like morbid skull and bones things to adorn my fingers if I even bother putting on jewelry (I don't as much anymore), so I also like her Lone Star Skull Ring. Reminds me of my dad's Lone Star painting he has above his bed that used to creep me out as a child but now I love as dearly as any of the other weird things we have in our house.  

I realized how much I love dark, creepy spaces the other day, probably because they remind me of home.. We have a lot of antiques and weird furniture in our house (you might remember previous outfit posts in my living room which oddly resembles a pirate ship) and the living room doesn't get the best light so a lot of the time, all of the pretty things are cast in shadows or in complete darkness. I don't find it creepy, I dunno, I find darkness kind of gleeful. I am more productive at night, too. Essentially, I am a vampire and I am going to kill you. Fear me!!!!

Have a nice Halloween you guys. 

psychobabble and witchery

So. much. to. do. My google calendar is my bible and guiding light, I honestly don't know how I'd live without it organizing and reminding me of my deadlines and class schedule and all the jazz. How's your October been? I've been on my feet the whole month - back and forth from the city to class, documentary editing (UGH) and watching documentaries with friends (YAY), zining and basement shows, midterm papers, endless exams. Sleep is for the lucky, not the weak. I'm super excited for this weekend though, Halloween is the best holiday and I couldn't wait to get into the witchy spirit because it's kind of my vibe on a daily basis anyway and I can just be even more witchy now and be considered festive. What're you guys being for All Hallows Eve? I hope you're having fun. I'm doing a new zine on sexuality and invisibility I'll probz put online when I'm done, I think you guys will like it.

See you soon! x

Busiest two weeks in like, ages -- busier than fashion week, even. My SD card broke so no outfit posts for a bit, have no fear! Where there is a will there is a way. 

VARDØGER

['ʋɑːɾdøːgəɾ]: is a spirit predecessor, from Norwegian folklore. Stories typically include instances that are nearly déjà vu in substance, but in reverse, where a spirit with the subject's footsteps, voice, scent, or appearance and overall demeanor precedes them in a location or activity, resulting in witnesses believing they've seen or heard the actual person, before the person physically arrives.

Chiharu Shiota & Lee Buls installations has also inspired & intrigued me to discover and approach

the possibilities of connections towards nature and the human form, in a way of uncertain perception.

Shot in LA before I transplanted to London. Following the film, lookbook photos will be posted shortly.
