Event Post; Excess: Fuck Snow!

I made this outfit for this past Wednesday's event Excess' Fuck Snow. I've gone to Excess before but it had been awhile and I hadn't had a chance to see the new location until this week. I had fun though it took us a long time to find parking and we only stayed for two hours since the parking we found was limited to that.

The theme of the night was to wear white. Hard to do for most gothy types. My first thought was to wear my wedding dress but that would be a hassle and pretty uncomfortable. Then I thought about busting out my dress from senior prom but that idea quickly went to the wayside. What I ended up doing was wearing one of my retro style dresses. It's not just straight up white but it definitely worked.

My mother bought me this dress from Hot Topic a number of years ago. I accessorized it with some plastic pearls and a stretchy belt around the waist. I did an awesome fifties inspired fancy ponytail hairstyle accented with a white headband that has a cute bow on it. It looked neat to me since I just recently re-shaved the underside of my head. I also of course had my favorite red lips I like to do. I forgot/failed to take pictures of that but I'm describing it for you anyways.

Since it is winter and it was very cold that night I of course needed something warm. I wanted to stay in theme so I borrowed this fur coat from my mother's house. It was my grandmother's and yes it is real fur. No I'm not in favor of real fur coats but this is an antique that was bought so long ago, so I'm personally ok with it. I wore my white scarf with black skulls on it that I hardly ever get to wear. I also wore my long, silky, finger-less gloves which were purchased cheap from a Halloween store after Halloween a number of years ago, and little black booty things that I bought for about seven bucks from Saver's.

This is a pretty busy week, expect another post very soon!
