Happy Late Halloween!

Got some pictures for you guys from halloween.  I took much more than this but I was too lazy to post them all.

I had to wear stuff i already owned because I have no money.  I figured I looked kind of like a doll so that's what I told people i was.

Also i painted my friend blue!

Anyway I hope you all had a great and spooky Halloween!

Still Kicking Around

Hey guys, its been a while since I have posted.  I haven't really had anything interesting going on in my life.
 ended up moving back to residence instead of living in an apartment aside from that I haven't been doing much.

Anyway, I have an outfit to show you plus a picture of some badges I made.

Weight-loss and Wigs

So a couple of weeks ago I invested in a wig.  This might seem a bit odd but I want to be able to do whatever I want with my hair without jeopardizing my chances of finding a job.  So here are some pictures of me wearing said wig.

 I think it is pretty cute but not really enough of my style to wear often when not looking for a job.

On another note I tried on a pair of shorts that a year ago were really tight on me and are actually pretty loose now!  It always makes me feel good when I can actually see a difference in my body.

A picture of me from last year wearing said shorts.  They were so tight that they actually became uncomfortable after a few hours.

I took a picture today of me wearing the exact same outfit and you can visibly see that the shorts are no longer skin tight!

I feel much better wearing them now.

Just Running Errands

Even when just running errands I like to get dressed up so even though that is all I am doing today(my friend I was supposed to hang out with had to work) I still have a cute outfit for you guys.

You have seen this skirt really recently but I love it so much it just had to make its way into another outfit!

I'm not usually comfortable showing my tummy but this top is really cute ^.^

Misfits!

So I found out today that I might get to see Misfits in October.  I am super excited as they are one of my favourite bands(Although I kinda wish I could step back in time and see them with Danzig).  Best part is that I was informed of this upcoming concert while wearing my Misfits shirt.  Now I can officially tell people that this shirt can summon band members :P

Any way here is a picture of me wearing my shirt.

I don't know why but when I was walking to the grocery store these two girls started staring at me and went very silent as if they thought I was going to rip out their hearts and use them as a blood sacrifice to summon Satan.  This wasn't even a very extreme outfit!  But Whatever.

This outfit makes me feel skinny!

Hello followers and welcome back to my blog.  It is currently a beautiful Monday morning here in Toronto.

I am really happy today and I feel good about my outfit so here are some pictures.

Hey look I'm posing instead of standing awkwardly!

Don't I look skinny in this full length shot!  I love the belt I'm wearing for this effect.

My eyelashes look long...

I can never decide if i like the way I look better with or without glasses.

I also have a single photo of the dress I wore a few days ago.

When I took this the thought of zooming my camera had not occured yet.

Just Another Outfit Post and Random Life Update.

Hello guys, its been a little while but some of you may have noticed I haven't been completely gone, I have been sneaking around commenting on posts and reading even more!  I have not posted anything myself because everytime I get dressed up I am usually rushed and don't have time to take photos and by the time I get back home all I wanna do is curl up in my pajamas.

For those of you that may be interested in what I've been up to here is a bit of an update.

First off I am in the middle of moving, I am moving back to Toronto come July.  So I have been a bit busy packing stuff up and spending time with a few of my friends before I leave.  I also need to do a bunch of training and medical tests to get into my program.  I am trying to get this all done before moving but I'm not sure that will be able to happen.

Today I actually have some time to spare in between going out and getting dressed so I took some pictures of my outfit and also my face because I didn't feel like I looked like a troll for once :P

My lighting in my room is so shit that I have to put my camera on a timer and sit on my bed to get outfit shots :P

Awkwardly standing.

Ignore the dust on the mirror and that I have my flash on and just look at my pretty skirt and boots.

Oh how I love my face without glasses 

And my face with glasses because I am blind without them, and am easily irritated by contacts. 

Oh and yes my hair has been gradually getting lighter.  I have finally gotten it to a decent color I can be happy with.  I am never dying my hair black again -.-

PUUUURPLE!!!

Hello, and welcome.  I'm a bit late posting this picture because I was lazy.  But here is a random outfit.

After red and black week it felt good to wear another color.

The skirt in this photo I bought at Forever 21 for $2!  Gotta love sale racks.  The top was a thrift store find and the tights were given to me so I am actually quite proud of how inexpensive my outfit was!

Red & Black Week-Day 5

Back for day five!  I am very happy with myself for having posted everyday so far.  Last year I was missing a few days :(

I would like to thank all of the people who have posted comments on my other posts.  I have also noticed that a few people have found my last years red and black week posts if any of you are interested all of my red and black week posts from both this year and last year can be found under the tag RED BLACK WEEK.

Anyway, today's post is yesterdays outfit.  all i did was sit around the house so I chose to wear some comfy black and red leggings.

And my favorite t-shirt

Yesterday, much like today, I did not bother with either hair or make-up, because who really has time for that when all they are doing is sitting around with a book.

I look kind of grumpy :O

Red & Black Week-Day 4

Hello, and welcome back for day four of red and black week. Today's post is actually what I was going to post yesterday before remembering that it was supposed to be red, black and white.  I bought this corset around a year ago and just never got around to wearing it.  hot summers and 6 hour days at school just didn't seem like the appropriate times.  So I finally decided to lace myself up in honor of red and black week!

I really love how straight it makes me sit up.

The rest of my outfit is quite boring and consists of a plain black t-shirt and a black maxi skirt that I got for around $2.
 

Red & Black Week-Day 3

Today was kind of a lazy day but i still wanted to participate so today's item is my black, red, and white misfits shirt.  

Excuse my wet hair and that I got lazy and used my phone instead of an actual camera :P

My favorite jeans.  I've had them for around five years and I plan on keeping them until they are nothing but shreds of fabric.

Close up of my shirt

Red & Black Week-Day 1

This outfit is from a few days ago but i saved the full outfit shot just for this week.  So here they are.

The only way I can get decent photos in my room is to sit my camera on my bookshelf and put the timer  on :S

Anyways, I can't wait to read everyone's red and black week posts.  And i hope that all of my followers that are not participating go and check out everyone's posts anyway.

Happy World Goth Day!

Hello, don't really have much of a post today just wanted to wish all my followers who call themselves goth a happy world goth day!

Oh and I have some pictures I took of myself.

Just my face because I felt pretty today.

A bad photo of my outfit.  I need to stop taking pictures on my phone and to find a better lit area of my house.

Quick Update

Hey guys, its been forever since I've posted.  I have been very busy with school and have not had much time for blogging.  Even my tumblr posts have been slowed down.  Anyway, just letting you guys know that all is good.  And it is not much but I do have some outfit shots for you.  It is nothing fancy, this is pretty much how I have been dressing on a daily basis for the last few weeks.  I have finally purchased some jeans that are comfy so my outfits have been extremely casual.

I feel like my daily wear of jeans tucked into boots with a t-shirt and loose cardigan is a bit reminiscent of Robert Smith.  But that could just be because that is what he is wearing in my Boys Don't Cry poster.

Outfits Picspam

He guys, its been a little while.  I am super busy with assignments and homework so I have barely been on the the computer.  I have actually managed to go entire days without accessing tumblr :O

But do not worry I have not forgotten about you guys.  I have managed to spare a few seconds on most mornings to take outfit shots.  Since I did not have the time to post them individually as they were taken I will throw them all into one post!

Todays outfit with jacket

yes you have seen both the top and the skirt before.

Being Called Beautiful Can Go A Long Way

Hey guys, I was going to just do a simple outfit post but I have decided that I wanted to talk about something instead.  I'm going to try not to turn this into a rant because I think this is actually a pretty positive post.  What I want to talk about is self-esteem.  I know we all have our ups and downs, some days all I want to do is cry others I am the happiest person in the world.  Some days start out bad and something turns them around and everything bad that happened earlier just seems to disappear, personally I love these days.

I don't want to make this one of those "love yourself" post, even though you all should.  I want this to be more about just my feelings on my own self-esteem.  I have had a lot of self-esteem issues in the past year or so, this mostly stems from a bad experience with co-workers and because I have gained a lot of weight within the last year.  Some of these problems you may have read about if you've been following my blog for awhile.

In the last few months I have noticed a change in my moods, I seem to be happier more, the little things don't seem to get me down as much as they used to, and despite my friends annoyance at my "giant ego" I have felt like I was beautiful for one of the first times in my life.  Yeah, I know that probably sounds cheesy, but it is true.  I have always had people call me pretty or cute and I only had a few people who would say negative things.  I didn't really focus on those negative things but I also never believed the compliments given to me.

I'm not sure about you but to me being called pretty or cute just seems like really shallow compliments that don't hold very much meaning.  I'm not trying to say those are bad compliments but to me they just seem very generic and like something people tell every person they come across.  When I hear people trying to boost someone spirit about their looks it is always pretty used, rarely words like beautiful or gorgeous.  Yes, this whole paragraph probably seems odd, but this is my blog and this is how I feel about those words so deal.  :P

Anyway, I have recently become fairly close to a friend I met a little over a year ago and once again I am going to sound cheesy but I'm pretty sure he is the first person to ever actually call me beautiful, and it feels great.  Okay, so admittedly I may have a bit of a crush on him, but I can tell he seems genuine about thinking I'm beautiful and it has been a huge confidence boost regardless of my feeling for him.  When someone compliments you out of the blue, simply because they feel like it, just seems so much better than receiving compliments on a photo you posted.  not that I don't love getting compliments from you guys, they do make me feel quite good and do put a smile on my face.

Another big boost in self-esteem and my confidence is tumblr.  I always hear that people have problems with social networking sites saying that they destroy young girls self esteem, I don't think this is try if you don't let it.  when I first joined tumblr I was looking at pictures of rail thin models and it was bringing me down about my own body type.  I slowly started moving from a fashion related to a fandom related blog(you guys that follow me probably think I am insane for most of the stuff I post, but I love you for still following) and I noticed a change, I stopped compairing myself to models and instead to compliments that were given to me. Friends I made started praising me on my interests and seemed to like me for who I was.(yes more cheesy lines)

I can't explain why but tumblr has boosted my confidence and has also led me into a part of my life where i have stopped worrying about conforming into one group.  when I first got interested in goth my mentality was learn everything and play by the rules.  Now my mentality is fuck it I'm doing what I want, hell I don't even call myself a goth.  Tumblr has taught me to indulge in all my interests and not care if they don't go together.  this has also led to fashion changes.  To be honest I still love the dark aesthetic and probably always will, but at times I just wanna dress normal or bum around in my old faded blue ripped jeans and a fandom t-shirt.  I used to try and only wear gothy outfit but now I am wearing whatever I feel like wearing and I feel great doing it.

I'm not entirely sure what the purpose of this post is and I'm afraid i may have landed in ranting territory(HOLY SHIT THIS POST IS LONG!) but here is a not so gothy outfit i wore today :P

Random Outfit Post

Hey guys, I am in a really cheerful mood this morning.  I woke up and actually felt like wearing something pretty instead of pants and t-shirt.  I also did my make-up and hair which is even more rare than me dressing pretty these days.  I always feel so great when I'm all prettied up.

And to top things off, when I went to take the pictures my MP3 switched to Goody Two Shoes by Adam Ant.  I find that song always makes things better.

Its on Tumblr too, not that you guys probably care.

Also on Tumblr.
