Pure Indulgence

I've been trying to give in to most of my guilty pleasures lately and so far it's really paying off and I'm in a great mood because of it. Today I went shopping again with a friend, had a decadent warm apple pie, paged through the gorgeous Japanese Vogue, and watched my current girl show, Pretty Little Liars. It's like a modern day Twin Peaks and I just can't get enough of it. My advice for today: give into your guilty pleasures once in a while, and be sure to get some me-time even though you might have a hectic schedule and busy home life.

The Big Monster Post

At the moment I'm obsessed with all things MONSTER! I looove my Kreepsville 666 Eyeball ring and my poor co-workers are creeped out everytime I wear it. I've dug up some monster inspiration to get you in just the right mood. First off some Japanese street fashion from Tokyo Fashion Blog.

Next up are gooey goggling eyeball goodies and more from Kreepsville 666.

Check out these sexy monster bikinis by Iron Fist Clothing. I have a hard time choosing which one to get.

You can also get all kinds of handmade monster goodies on Etsy. Here's some by Undead Ed.

And last a gorgeous look by Audrey Kitching that I think would look great matched with a monster themed outfit.

The Japanese blues

Yesterday I went a little shopping crazy on Etsy and bought myself what looks to be a beautiful vintage Japanese silk haori. Lately I've been lusting after something like this and I'm going to rock it all spring if it's as good in real life as on the pictures. I'm trying out new colors than I normally wear at the moment, particularly different tones of blue. My doctor once tested me for allergies and it turned out I was allergic to blue, specifically cobalt blue pigment, and I haven't worn blue clothing since I found out. Now I'm giving it another shot and so far nothing has happened, so I'm glad to get back to all the lovely shades of blue that I've been missing out on for years. This robe is no exeption and I love the pattern and colorscheme and can't wait for it to get here.
