1970's Hippie Horror Babe: ALTERNATIVE CURVES BLOG HOP!

I'm not entirely sure what makes me a 1970's Hippie Horror Babe. But, well, I just wanna be - so there!

Actually, that's not entirely true. I recently watched the entire Friday the 13th franchise (again), and the first one in particular (being released in 1980) had some seriously delicious 70's girl fashion and beauty.

This month's theme on Alternative Curves is TIME TRAVEL - which is pretty darn exciting! I had grand plans of doing some sort of kooky, foil-based futuristic Jetsons meets Magenta and Riff Raff revenge scene mixup. But, well, dem Friday the 13th ladies got me feeling the seventies vibes so bad!

I've never really done a look of that era before, because I tend to think of myself as a 1960's and pre kinda girl. So! This was a real challenge, but one made significantly easier by these GORGEOUS pants I recently bought from Pho Sizzle Threads. I am NOT a pants person, but these are so beautiful, light (perfect for summer) and so so comfortable.

Anyway, this is perhaps not the most "outside the box" outfit in the grand scheme of things, but it is for me. I absolutely adored wearing this on a beautiful summer'3 afternoon, imbibing copious quantities of wine and soft cheese. And hey, any excuse for tonnes of blue eyeshadow!

Special thanks to Sam for snapping my snaps, and do check out the other creative babes in the blog hop boxes below! <3

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, LYDIA!

MAH GOODNESS! It's almost Christmas, and yet my heart still pines for Halloween. I'm trying not to wish the new year away just so it can be closer to October. I just need to remind myself; Halloween is not just a holiday - it's a lifestyle. Heh heh hehhh.

A little while ago Ms Annalog kindly invited Margot Meanie and I to do an interview about how Alternative Curves came to be! She also asked us to do some sort of a themed photo set, which really excited me - what's funner than coordinated outfits? Coordinated DRESS UP outfits from OPPOSITE SIDES OF DA GLOBE!

We both love the shit out of Halloween so immediately knew we wanted to do something of that flavour. After a few ideas passed around we finally settled on a Beetlejuice/Lydia theme! I know this isn't exact, I would one day love to do a proper Lydia costume. But for now, let's just call this Lydia-inspired. I was also delighted to discover everything I needed was already in my closet. Ahh the joys of being a costume-freak!
