I am Iron Man

 "Iron Man. That's kind of catchy. It's got a nice ring to it. I mean it's not technically accurate. The suit's a gold titanium alloy, but it's kind of provocative, the imagery anyway." -Tony Stark

My final #Nerdvember outfit is the genius, billionaire, playboy philanthropist, Tony Stark, specifically in his Iron Man suit! This dress with the goldenrod tights are about the perfect color combination (though I could, just as easily, been a Gryffindor.) I have lamented on more than one occasion that I don't own an arc reactor brooch, so I may have to remedy that some day but this vintage gold Trifari one played that role job for today.

 Blouse- (thrifted) Bannana republic
Dress- BB Dakota
Cardi- (thrifted) The Limited
Tights- Target
Shoes- No label (Buffalo Exchange)
Earrings-CUTEnotKAWAii

"You know, it's moments like these when I realize how much of a superhero I am."-Tony Stark

Well November's over. It looks like I need another reason to dress up! What should I do next?

Fashion Macabre

I read a lot of blogs and one of my favorites is the Cherry Blossom Girl. Her sweet yet sharp sense of style is a fabulous inspiration to me. And her most recent post is so great that I had to share it. I love the the outfits she pulled inspired by these favorite dark characters.

Beatlejuice
Wednesday Addams (who I have always loved. Both Christina Ricci and the original I always wanted to be her.)
And more Beatlejuice fun. Lydia is such a fun character, and second only to Wednesday as inspiration for my Gothic Streak.
I love these because I would totally wear them. Especially Lydia's. I mean it's pretty close to something I have already worn, both for Halloween and on a regular basis. And speaking of Halloween, I getting geared up. I'm working on my costume. Are you?
luv,
