I ain't evil, I'm just good lookin'.

Tomorrow I'm heading out to see the Murderdolls, Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper in Universal City! And, as if the fates are conspiring to make this really awesome for me, the delightfully Satanic shirt I ordered came in the mail today.

I couldn't be more excited! I am going to have to put a shawl on while going through airport security, though.

Couldn't be more excited!

Saccharine.

I made a weird impulse purchase today. I went to the grocery store for some dinner and got completely derailed when I noticed that they were setting up their Halloween display. Needless to say, I came away with a couple of necessities. Like these:

I happened to be wearing these socks, and I thought it made an altogether neat look. Even though these were intended to go with some "sexy" Halloween costume, they completely deserve regular rotation in your wardrobe. Don't you think?

It's poetry in motion.

Here is something that I wore quite a long time ago:

It is exceptionally hot these days (when there isn't a thunderstorm), so I can't even imagine wearing a cardigan...

This is an altered tank top that I bought this June at the Fairfax High Flea Market in Hollywood. The boutique that sold it to me is called Purrr LA. They took a picture of me trying it on to post on their website. I was wearing outrageously plaid pants that day, it happens.

We're gonna stay away forever until we're dancing on my grave.

I wanted to introduce you to another one of my fashion icons: Michael Monroe, the lead singer of Hanoi Rocks.

I cannot put into words how unbelievably stylish I find this guy. All of his clothes are absolutely perfect. He knows how to rock bright colors, contrasting colors and neon-- be still, my heart. He also knows how to accessorize and combine excessive fringe with red cowboy boots. What more can I say? I wish I could dress like this all the time.

But, while we're on the subject, the other members of Hanoi Rocks were also quite fashionable and deserve mention.

I would go into more detail, but these outfits speak for themselves. Where do you even find clothes this amazing? This band is also excellent, so everyone should thoroughly be in awe.

Are we still okay?

Recently got some new shoes. I do this all the time. Because I love shoes.

There was a "buy one, get one" sale at Charlotte Russe (my favorite), so it was clearly fate that I came away with two new pairs of shoes.

And I also scored some plain black heels, which I thought was a good investment.

I would also like to share a bit of dialogue from RuPaul's Drag U that I related to--

Raven: Do they hurt?

Linda: Not yet.

Raven: Then you need a higher heel.

You can't begin to feel.

I started following Karla's Closet a while ago because I saw her post some really neat shoes. Here is her picture:

They are the Yves Saint Laurent criss-cross strap pumps:

However, I was resigned to admire them from afar until last night when I spotted the Parker Wedge on Alloy's website.

While they're missing the criss-cross strap (which is obviously a selling point for the YSL pumps), they do have that cool heel that attracted me to them. And they come in forest green! For only $32.90, I'd say it's a fair trade.

Paint the daytime black.

Here is another July outfit!

I wore my American Apparel pocket skirt again because it is my go-to, universally-functional black skirt. Today I wore it with a striped tank top that I've had forever, high-heeled sandals from Macy's (that I've had forever) and a new faux leather jacket from Charlotte Russe. It was actually comfortable to wear the jacket when I left the house this morning, but it became so incredibly hot by the afternoon that I couldn't bear to wear it all day.
