Hello Polly, I'll clean my room. In exchange for your immortal soul.

Growing up I loved watching anything horror and monster related. I especially loved old reruns of the Munster's and The Adams family which later found a new home on Nick at Night. However in the early 90's the T.V. series got a reboot in the form of a movie staring Anjelica Huston, Raul Julia and Christopher Lloyd........but the real star of that movie was Christina Ricci portraying the role of Wednesday Addams. Especially in the sequel!!!

 In the show the original character played by Lisa Loring had the cute factor with a twist, but in the movie Ricci elevated the role and created a cult classic character that was infamous for one liners of the macabre. I was probably the same age as her and I looked to her witty dark sarcasm as a voice for my inner dwellings of dark humor that I hadn't honed enough to release onto the world. Today on the blog my outfit choice is a homage to the Christina Ricci's Wednesday Addams portrayal.

 I think Wednesday Addams was really a homicidal maniac, just locked in a cage in a form of a girl. I felt this dress encompasses just that.

 This dress is by Folter/Retrolicious Clothing company  who has amazing novelty prints if you adore them as much as I check out the link.

 

 Nothing says Wednesday Addams like a pointed peter pan collar.

 

One of my favorite Wednesday Addams quotes:
 Gary: Now, one of you will be the drowning victim and the other one gets to be our lifesaver.
Amanda: I'll be the victim!
Wednesday: All your life.

Fun Fact: Wednesday's middle name is Friday! Also check out Melissa Hunter's Chanel on YouTube. She has a whole bunch of videos called Adult Wednesday Addams. They are hilarious.

Friday Favorites #4

I've got some new Friday favorites and boy are they cute!!!! They are from Modcloth. The first one has an adorable name, its called Ciao about that dress. They have a video up of this dress so you can see it in all of its cute lil dress glory.

Its really adorable and it has a nice modest front and it actually has a crisscross back which is pretty interesting. The print is darling, it has a street scape and it actually reminds me of the streets of Italy which I'm sure is part of the charming name that is a parody of that song "All about the bass" by Meagan Trainor.

 

The next dress I'm lusting after is surprise a landscape  tree/floral print but this one is darling.

 

It reminds me of Bernie Dexter's cherry blossom dress that is really hard to find however I find this to be a nice alternative to that dress. This one is called Marvelous Moonglow Dress. This is also on Modcloth.

My Bloody Valentine

Valentine's day, A day to spend with a loved one/or to treat the hell out of yourself!

 I had never actually spent Valentine's day with an actual valentine until my fiance came into my life but I often remember it was always a great excuse to wear some red and buy some sweets for myself. I spoiled myself with a new year sale a while back and with the help of my followers on Instagram this dress was chosen to wear on my valentines festivities with my beau. In my last blog post I put the choice in the hands of my readers/viewers using the dressed app. Here is the winning outfit.

Thank you, my lovely darlings for choosing the dress I really wanted to wear! I had been waiting for the perfect moment to pull this dress out. I got it from Modcloth, Its called the Spectacle Spectacular Dress.

 It is made by Voodoo Vixen which is a UK company that has amazing prints and vintage reproduction styles. I will be wearing one of their dresses on the blog soon so stay tuned. This dress is made of a nice strong cotton material and and the print is absolutely adorable. 

This dress is pretty unique because of the crisscross chest design with black piping and it has pockets! I'm sucker for dresses with pockets because there is nothing sweeter than that. It is also in a fit and flair dress which makes my waist look itty bitty. The skirt portion is a circle skirt design that is perfect for dancing in.

 This dress actually comes with a belt but I liked with without the belt for this occasion, but it would look really cute with the belt along with other accessories like a hat and gloves because you can take the girl away form the cold but you cant take a girl away from cold weather accessories. Am I right?

The shoes I paired with this are actually my Maryjane Clarks in black under their Indigo line. Clarks  heals, I swear are the most comfortable. They have taken up most of my shoe collection.

 I also paired this outfit with one of my vintage wicker handbags because I simply adore it, and it goes with almost my whole wardrobe.

What will my valentine gear be?

Hey guys I need some help I have three Valentine's Day options but I'm not sure which dress to pick. I decided to use a lil help from my favorite app. I use the dressed app off of iTunes all the time.

It's pretty exciting and you can virtually plug in your whole wardrobe and search through your virtual closet to create outfits to wear. It's pretty cool because sometimes you'll look at your closet and wonder what should I wear to that event or meeting and POOF!, your covered because you figured it out on your commute or break prior to those events with this app.

This app is a life saver so I recommend it. It's pretty cool because you can plug in your accessories, shoes, bags, and even customize your mannequin. Now here's where I need your help.

LoveLace

My Fiance got a position at a place he really wanted to work, so my future sister and brother-in -law took us out for festivities. I broke out this lil number. Since its close to valentines day I also thought that this makes a lovely dress for that day as well.

 I got this item for a steal at Anthropologie a while back for 70% off its original price. Can we say deal!

 It's actually a high low dress but it is ever so slight that it can pass as a regular cut dress. The texture of the fabric is thick like a couch, so it works for colder days. The Lace is a coral color and has a slight sheen which is a nice contrast to the thick velvet matte texture of the base fabric. The cherry on top is that this dress has pockets! I mean who doesn't love that?

Here's a close up of the texture above.

This Dress is made by the designer Yoana Baraschi and she makes really lovely dresses with beautiful rich texture and design. This dress is now sold out at Anthropologie but you can check out some of her items here and some are on sale!!! Her official website is {http://yoanabaraschi.com/}.

 This dress ensures happy dances especially for celebrations! Whoop Whoop!!

Shoes are Clarks indigo collection ;)
