Because feet should be feared.

Flower Cake Princess Sandals

Look at this.  I wouldn’t be able to walk in this, and I don’t mean from clumsiness.
I mean these are works of art, and you do not walk in them for the same reason
you do not walk in antique porcelain teacups.

They come in more colors that you can see through the link –
a lovely antique ivory and robin’s egg blue.

BUNNY HEELS

Those are bunnies.
As heels.  On shoes.
Pink bunnies on polka dot shoes.
All of humanity has led up to this.

More colors through the link.

Woodland Deer Heels

If bunny heels weren’t enough, here is a woodland deer variation.
The other colors for this one are REALLY cute, it was hard
to narrow it down to just one to show off here,
but pink always prevails.

Bunny Pumps

Speaking of bunny heels, here’s another variation of the same theme.
Comes in black and white as well.

Rose & Sequin Wedge Sandals

Roses on toeses always look himegyaru to me~
The sequins on the wedges give this one some extra flashy color.

Cherubic Angel Wardrobe

Monday, March 23rd, 2015

Lately I have been obsessed with the idea of building up a wardrobe built around a “cherubic angel” theme~  Inspired in no small part by a certain favorite Super Smash Bros character, I’m happy to have several golden hair accessories and jewelry and flowy white clothing items now~

Kid Icarus Pit-inspired Accessories

…See the resemblance? 😀

Let’s walk through those pieces!

Angel Wing Cutout Top

This comes in two colors, both black and white~
An interesting variation would be to put a “dark angel” outfit together,
you can totally do it! 😀  Dark Pit would be so proud.

Goddess Golden Laurel Headband

I feel like this is the weakest part of the outfit, but at only 5 bucks
it was a good piece for padding up the golden jewelry selection.
Later I found some better gold laurel pieces, keep scrolling!

Gold Leaf Hair Clip in 2 Styles

This looks positively goddess-like –
a good, small accessory that you can wear with any outfit
to add some golden gleam.

Cupid’s Bow Gold & Rhinestone Necklace

It was reeeaaaallly hard finding a bow & arrow necklace
that wasn’t related to The Hunger Games!
I worked so hard to find this and it turned out to be so beautiful
everything was worth it *cries*

Gold Leaves Goddess Metal Headband

I don’t actually own this piece yet, but I found it the other week at Claire’s,
and it’s SO PERFECT I MUST HAVE IT!!
It’s SO accurate to Pit’s laurels, it’s unfair.
Ahh, I have to go back and get it soon, before it’s gone!

I don’t have a link for the double golden bracelets that are pictured in my first photo up there,
but they should be easy to find!  Mine came from the pharmacy LOL, and they
were packaged with a bamillion other colors for just $1!
