EMINENTLY SUITABLE

Yes at Gothmas you can also find some nice things for the gentlemen! I don't show menswear often but I am loving this suit. It is available with different HUD-controlled textures and colors on the vests and ties. Each HUD had four colors for a bit of flexibility. Enjoy! Gothmas runs through January 3, so you have a few more days to go see.

DEADLY

I'm not sure how gothic Plaid really is but I'll try. :D  I can always dress it up with black eyeliner and these skull-y accessories. Does it work? The coat and umbrella weren't even made by the same designer. The coat-dress was made by Fission and the gacha umbrella by Third Time's the Charm! Both at Gothmas by Gaslight.



I added earrings and a ring by Maxi Gossamer. And black and purple makeup from Mock cosmetics, to make the skin more in theme.



The shoes and nails are both pretty over-the-top Goth. Spiders at Christmas? OK! ;D

I'M MELTING!

Time is flying by and there are only a few more days before most of the Holiday events close! I still have a few more things to show so I'd better hurry right? This dark and lovely jewelry set from Eclectica is fully customizable with different textures but my favorite colors came right out of the box. I matched them with a plush brocade jacket by Goth1c0, and some nice toasty warm boots. Here I stand indoors by the fire with my sweet Olaf. He thinks I am worth melting for.

LUCRETIA

So many beautiful things as Gothmas that I'm not sure I can show you all my favorites before the event closes! Today I wanted to bring you something that is neither goth nor Christmassy, but rather something perhaps for a dark Victorian fantasy.



Avatar Bizarre's purple frock isn't that dark, but I suppose you could style it that way if you like. I just wore it with some sweet birthstone jewels that VRD put into a little gacha. These eyes are intimidating aren't they? They come in a lovely rainbow of colors, at the Pin Me Down shop.

SNOWBERRIES

A few more of my favorite things from Gothmas by Gaslight. Just because it's gothy doesn't mean it can't be festive! I could get the pieces of the outfit to match the red in the dress because the wreath, jewels and tattoo are modifiable. I feel like Briar Rose all dressed and ready for a midnight ball.

HOLIDAYS GONE GOTHIC

I love red and green and candy canes too, but if you like your holiday season more dark and cold, Gothmas by Gaslight is opening its doors today at Noon SLT!! Gothmas is intended to show a darker holiday, catering more to the goth, Steampunk, diesel and dark Victorian genres. I may need smelling salts.



I styled this Cloak and Gown to look a bit more antique by layering a lace shirt underneath. I couldn't decide whether I liked the Black or the White version better, so I settled on wearing the White cloak over the Black gown.



Some lovely amethyst jewels from a set by NSP, and Beautiful Freak's drippy smeary eyeliner. How tragic. I also need to show you the purple snowflakes on the back of the cloak ...
