Ridiculous vintage accessory cravings, part eleventy-squillion or something

Remember those huge crescent moon brooches from the 80s? Silver(tone), covered in rhinestones? Every vaguely witchy girl I knew in the scene had one?

I want one again. The one I had went walkabout years ago, and now I want to replace it. I want to wear it with my planchette brooch!

Hi, I want all the jewelry that looks like it could be vintage haute couture hexing accessories. Or, as I told [livejournal.com profile] minim_calibre today, I have accepted that I want to dress like the vaguely Victorian lovechild of Stevie Nicks and Lestat. Velvet, lace, and witchy bling! Deliver them to me!

"the vaguely Victorian lovechild of Stevie Nicks and Lestat" -- LOVE.

I still don't know how you manage it while having cats about, but you have my sincere admiration for how well you pull it off <3

Haute Couture Hexing Accessories are the BEST.

While we're dreaming:

(I actually think you'd dig a lot of her stuff, if you haven't encountered it already. I really love her jewelry, and own several pieces!)

"I still don't know how you manage it while having cats about"

This. Everything fringed, everything chiffon and drapey, everything with witchy points, is a cat's plaything; everything velvety is covered in shed fur!

OMG. That is AMAZING!

I'm so pleased that witchy Stevie Nicks clothes are somehow in style. I bet you'll find a vintage ("vintage," I can't believe I'm calling things from the 1980s that) sparkling crescent moon--and if you do, may I be the first to request outfit photos? Thanks in advance :D

I want that bat skeleton thing SO MUCH. hnnnngg.

I manage the Lestat + Stevie Nicks wardrobe by having a lot of lint rollers, and saving the more tempting cat-toy garments/accessories for when I'm leaving the house. :)

I... don't remember seeing those at all. Given that I collected crescents specifically, that's really weird. I swear I remember the 90s!!! (I was poor and there was lots of drama.)
