On Wednesdays We Wear Black

Hat: Primark | Dress: ASOS | Coat: Zara | Stockings: Calzedonia | Boots: Primark | Bag: Killah

Finally, a day with no work, no rain (I love rain but my camera not so much) and no stress. I woke up at 3pm and, after a looong hot shower and a sip of white tea, I was ready to face my well-deserved day off. My mood has seen better days, I confess, so I struggled a bit to dress up and go outside - or should I say out of the Coven? My floppy hat looks dusty, as I couldn't bother cleaning it up. I could dress like this every day in a row for a week because it conveys a darker side of the comfort factor and I couldn't identify more with all the black. This look wasn't only inspired by American Horror Story but also by Lydia Deetz, Wednesday Addams and Stephanie Farrow in this 1960s picture. So all the feedback I get from people in the street are condescending looks intrigued by the witchy-goth going Amish sort of thing. These pictures were taken in front of an abandoned house but I still remember when people used to live in there, many years ago. Maybe next time I'll try to get inside for a house raid/urbex overture, what do you think? The worst I can find are HIV-positive needles and dried vomit.

    1. Estava a pensar exactamente no mesmo, o cabelo da Nance está enorme de grande!!! Adoro adoro este tipo de look, e acho que se há pessoa que eu "conheço" que fica BEM assim, és tu, Nance maria.

  6. When I saw your photo on Facebook I was amazed by it, I really love this look. I have been watching ahs and I think this season was great we met some really nice characters and their fashion choices have effected us. I have been actually trying to gather a few pieces to dress up all black and coveny myself <3

  9. Estou ligeiramente apaixonada por este post, especialmente a primeira foto. (e o chapéu, ok, adoro o chapéu)

    Also, assegura-te que tens a vacina do tétano em dia quando andas por esses sítios! Uma vez cortei-me numa casa abandonada e andei em pânico durante três dias até me lembrar... oh wait, eu estou vacinada, MOVING ON.

  16. YES! Wednesday is a black day- mid working week. I agree. Your pictures are glorious, someone is a good photographer. More personal style posts please! Also, if you find a way to clean a dusty wool hat, let me know! I have never found a solution to this problem. I hope you enjoyed your well deserved 3pm lie in- colour me jealous and pink.
