  • Charmaine Olivia Is Fabulous in Black

    02.18.12

    Artist Charmaine Olivia‘s gorgeous outfit at the opening of her show, Ritual, on January 14th, is an awesome real-life example of a simple but effective look. The black, full-length dress with cutouts in back is from Paprika via ASOS; the look is accented with sterling silver jewelry, including the “Seance” bracelet cuff from Blood Milk, and sets off her tattoos beautifully.

  • Bloodmilk – “The Messenger”

    07.19.11

    A new piece up in the ever-lovely Bloodmilk Jewelry’s Etsy shop (“Supernatural Jewels for Surrealist Darlings”). Titled The Messenger, this intriguing, gnarled, and beautiful necklace in bronze and rose gold plate features the delicately detailed shape of a crow’s claw, clutching an amethyst crystal. I find this Bloodmilk piece to be particularly alluring. Covet!
