New post time at Gothic Charm School!

Portland! New Gothic Charm School Merchandise! And When Not To Explain That You’re Not Wearing A Costume.

Yesssss, shiny new merchandise! A beautiful silver batty heart necklace from Rocklove Jewelry, and Gothic Charm School body butter from Starborn Alchemy!

Just like always, I owe a huge round of thanks, drinks, and shiny things to the Finishing School of Flail, staxxy, and stroppy_baggage for making sure that the post didn't spiral into sleep-deprived incoherency.

Also just like always, hey! If you people could spread the word about the new post (and the new merchandise!), that would be amazingly helpful. Thank you!

Now, to try and avoid the heat and get ready to head to PDX tomorrow. Dear Powers That Be, I would like some cool and rainy weather RIGHT NOW. Please?

Okay, which one of you people did this?

"Best Advice From a Goth
Jillian Venters
Good manners and funereal attire aren't incompatible at all. Nor are the extreme use of eyeliner and working at Starbucks. But Goths can be misunderstood by friends and family and in the workplace. That's where blogger and advice maven Jillian Venters steps in."

I'm ... agog. And flattered. Thank you!
