#gothtomom Gift Guide

So I have many elements to my life that inform my purchases. I am (very) plus size. I am a mom of 2 small children. I am interested in counter culture style and art. These factors often fight with each other and make shopping for myself challenging.  With the holidays coming, gift giving is fresh on everyone's mind, so I carved out some time to come up with a list of incredibly cool products to buy for the goth mom in your life...even if that mom is you!  All clothing comes in standard to plus size, so this guide is for every body! *This post contains affiliate links*




Rituel de Fille Eye Soot in Exuviae and Lip Sheer in Swarm









Morte Mistress Tunic (one size plus size) 










Death Wish Ground Coffee (strongest in the world!)


















Adeptt Dress Maxi Dress in sizes XS-3X

Luxe List: A Wishlist to Make One Weep

The older I get, the more I have little patience for "fast" fashion and poorly made pieces.  I find myself saving and eventually splurging more than a steady stream of lower-end buying.  Instead of making meh resolutions for 2014, I thought I'd focus on some aspirational pieces that make me smile.


Luxe List



John Fluevog Knee High Angels - I once tried on a pair of Angels and the cushy comfort has never left my mind.  I prefer 14-20 eye boots and they've only carried shorty's since I've been looking...until now.
Skingraft Buckled Bag - I'm CONSTANTLY looking for an incredibly cool black leather bag and this Skingraft number is amazing.
Rachel Pally Isa Dress - I actually have this dress in a forest green color that I nabbed on sale one year...DYING for a black one!
Isolde Roth Tunic - This cut is everything I dream of and more!
Ovate Cape with Fur Collar - I just want to be an evil ice queen, OK?
Seven Sacred Planets Pins - These are so beautiful that I would carry them/wear them wherever I went.
Bloodmilk Seance Cuff + Hecatate's Diadem Necklace - I have 1 bloodmilk piece and it only created a strong lust deep inside.  This cuff is a great measurement for a plus size bangle and I LOVE the moonstone of the necklace.

Etsy Pulls

Lately, I've been scouring vintage/thrift shops with my best lady, Frankie, while she gathers goods for her Etsy shop (you can see it here...she's only got 1 left right now! Her stuff goes quick).  After a particularly submerging weekend in Palm Springs, I have the vintage bug.  I've been dreaming of confetti lucite, bakelite dominos, and drunk pink elephants. So, I have been thinking of ways to interpret this into my blog...cue the greatest vintage shop in the world: Etsy.  Here are some of my current favorite plus size clothing pieces on Etsy right now (click on the image to go to the ordering page).

We've come upon my favorite month!  And while the rest of the US is chillin' down, it's still in the 90's out here in my neck of So Cal.  Layering is key for out here, because SOMETIMES it can get rather chilly at night, whilst it's still SUPER hot during the day.  I'm loving the continued sheer trend, moto jackets, and punky footwear.  This is what I'm wishing for this October...what are you loving??

Spring Wishlist

I dare to say that I'm becoming predictable with these wishlists and inspos, but then I remind myself how few plus size blogs focus on darker fashion. It's important to keep showing new places and creative ways to rock an alternative style in a fashionable way, right?? With that small warning, I present my Spring Wishlist! I'm still all about flowing, lightweight tops, great boots, and killer jewelry. These tops from All Saints are PERFECT for pretty much any size and are oh so easy to wear. Want to know where else all these goodies are from? Click the image to go to my polyvore set for prices and links.

Spring Wishlist



Full disclosure: the Gareth Pugh x Melissa Sandals and the glasses are already in my possession. But they were just TOO GOOD to not include. Also note that the Gisela Ramirez Bondage Briefs (which I would wear with the sheer skirt in the warmer months) are now 50% off with the code on her site.

There are a couple of items from Etsy that I'm drooling over as well, but since they cannot be worked into Polyore I'll include them here.

Photobucket
ALLIHALLA Garter Shorts

Photobucket
Nubambu Quartz Ring

There are also several pieces from my upcoming collection for Domino Dollhouse that I will be snagging for myself but NO SPOILERS yet, chubblettes!

If I were rich and lived on Mars...

It will be no surprise to you, if you are frequenter of my blog, that my mind often wonders off on its own lusty shopping tangents that have little to do with the confines of reality. I mean, I could have a pink, miniature T-Rex for a pet, right? With enough money anything is possible, isn't that right? With dreams and aspirations, there is really no reason to put limits on imagination, so why not let it run wild?
