The usual sort of stuff and things

[cupcake_goth]

I have no idea what sort of thing I'm going to wear on my head at Vampire Ball. Well, I have a vague idea, but I don't know if it's beyond my skills to make, and since it is only THREE WEEKS until the event, I don't really have time to commission anything. Argh!

Thank you for the opinions about the bow headband I was wearing yesterday. I am still undecided about how it looked, AND the dratted thing gave me a headache. I am back to my usual top hat today.

Last night I was sufficiently cranky about assorted things (yes, including the unhappy news from MCR) that I sulked on the couch and watched Jennifer's Body. It holds the same sort of place in my affections as Gingersnaps, and watching it did make me feel less like wearing my Crankybloomers.

Awww. I don't know how to make hats, but if it's some other sort of headpiece I may be able to help.

I thought the bow was cute but forgot to comment. Maybe a hair clip rather than a headband would work better...

I was going to suggest this as well. Mounting it onto a snap clip or a bendy metal one... or even a slide comb?

Another belated bow comment

I thought the asymmetry didn't work with the outfit you had on, but I think I would have liked it if it were centered on your head.

That said, Jennifer's Body?! I went to see that instead of Zombieland, and I regret the decision to this day. And I did like Gingersnaps! (And May. *sigh* May. The reason I do all of my mending with embroidery floss and top-stitching that shows now.)

I know, I'm one of about a dozen people that liked Jennifer's Body. But I think it was a marvelous portrayal of toxic female friendships. (I also really like Zombieland and May. Oooh, I need to get my own copy of May.)

I love May in part because the last three seconds or so change the game so thoroughly. I wish more films were capable of that.

Those are the CUTEST boots.

Maybe you should have a hat with a 3-masted schooner on it? You might be able to get some assistance with that...

That's an adorable skirt! :D

if I can help, let me know.

What unhappy news?

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

MCR and their drummer, Bob Bryar, have parted ways. That's all anyone knows, and the fandom is spiraling into a tizzy.

Tell me about it! I can't read any more of the comments on that post, there's too much hysteria. How did we go from "Bob is leaving, isn't it sad" to "OMG, they are lying liars who lied to us and the album will never be released and they'll break up WAAAH."

If you want to wear a hat, I can make you one to wear. You just have to give it back to me. I'm trying to get a bunch of people to wear my hats to the event... I so far have a good number, but I would like more!! :D

Lovely as always.

What amazing outfit will you be wearing to the Vampire Ball this year?

(my cure for Crankybloomers last night was a dose of Coraline)

[fidgetypaleone.livejournal.com]

Yes, what is the amazing wearable project you dream of wearing? Perhaps we may be able to offer suggestions to make it a reality.

^_^ Cute like always. You made that skirt, right? The bow yesturday was cute, but I think it would be better on the center of your head.
Maybe you could wear a mini-top hat to the ball.

I got bored. Here: http://strawberrygoth.deviantart.com/art/Cupcake-Goth-Lolita-154447829

Going to read the new GSC post now.

Awww, cute! Thank you so much! :)

Just wanted to jump in and add that Jennifer's Body is great :-)

I like the serious goth-cake look. Pouty. *kissy*
