I was feeling really bored yesterday and started playing around with some new makeup to create a goth look. And then since the makeup didn’t fit with my sweatpants and t-shirt, I started digging through my closet for the most steampunk or goth clothing I owned. Annnnnnd then I needed to take some pics, of course! (And yes, it’s snowing in the pics! Our first real snow of the season!)
I didn’t dress up for Halloween this year, but this is what I had in mind. I’m pretty sure I couldn’t have gotten away with it at work though…especially if I showed up carrying a sword and had a pair of sais stuck in my boots. ;)
And let’s be real—no real steampunk vampire hunter would chase monsters in high-heeled boots. My feet hurt after just running around the yard for half an hour. And I’m missing a good crossbow or some outlandish steam-looking weapon firearm, which I have yet to procure.
But it’s pretty fun to dress up and play around at home. Even if the neighbors drive by and stare. Oh well, might as well give them something good to stare at!

Totally awesome, love the OOTD!!! You wear it well!! It really goes well against the backdrop of snow and the old shed, I think.

You look so fabulous! I love that outfit and the make up! You should definitely wear dark lipstick more often! I would love to wear dark lipstick but I don’t know if I could pull it off!

You should try it! You’ll never know if you don’t try!
