Kiss Kiss, Bang, Bang (part 1 of Fated to Pretend)

 For the very first of my "Fated to Pretend" (count down to Halloween) series I went with something super classic that I've never done before. I know Cowboy was one of the few that you guys didn't get to vote for. I knew that I wanted to do this costume and I knew I had all the pieces to pull directly from my closet which was very appealing. This undertaking has great potential to be very expensive.

 I had such a blast with this! Running around the meadow on my Monty Python style imaginary horse shooting bandits. I really channeled my Fievel Goes West fantasies from childhood. (wow. TWO nerdy references in one paragraph.)


                                                           Do I even kind of look like I could be a good shot?

Finger Bang.
 
 I created these earrings for this cowboy outfit. The acrylic guns made them super light. I love the vintage stars and ombre Swarovski!



Hat: Vintage
Blouse: Delias* (really old)
Bandanna: So old I think it may be vintage. (I used to wear it to girl scout camp)
Belt: Frye (found thrifting!)
Skirt: Thrited
Underskirt: Forever 21
Tights: Hot Topic
Boots: Destroy
Jewelry: Vintage Star pin, and Corvidae Jewelry

I had such a blast with this!
Stay Tuned for MORE! 
Luv,
Vanessa*
