Dollhouse: Red velvet armchair

Don't ask me how, but I remember fragments of thick paper cut in shape, fleece covered with red velvet, a few stitches and some glue...and a hell of a lot of luck.

Funny item for tea drinkers

This might not be quite goth items, but I just found them so darn funny!

Imagine this:
Your husband invited over some friends from work for a cup of tea.
Being a total joker you thought it might be funny to use this teapot.

It can be bought here for $39.34.

Only one problem - your husbands co-workers are from a country known for terrorism.

Ehh...ups! Can I offer you some gingerbread cookies instead..heh..

Then you will just whip out your other teapot and kill yourself...

This one is made by Dennis Shields and can be bought for the "small" amount $2200 here.

(doubt it can be used though sínce it's merged into a plastic gun..)

Then I'm betting a teapot like this will show up after all the commotion..

I think this salt and pepper matches the crowd too!

I'm late!

"What?! Is she having ANOTHER child!"

No, nooo.... absolutely not.
But there was apparently a huge accident on the main road so my bus is late - ergo - I'm late..

Right now I'm on a train instead. I will still arrive, but fashionable late.

Adora's Valentine's Day Poem.

On the pure white snow
Blood never looked more beautiful
You make my blood freeze I said
But Winter just laughed away
and dead I stay

Who'd knew I had a poem in me?

My friendly neighbour behind me at the class was sweet enough to hand out jelly and nougat hearts to everyone! (not him on picture, that's another classmate). I wish him a lovely Valentine's Day - and everyone else too.

Thank you, A.

Many budgets and salary and costs in and out have been on the schedule all day long. My brain is shutting down...zzzzz.

Happy Valentine's Day!

When I got on the bus this morning I was given a bag of jelly hearts from the bus company.
How cute!

What a lovely thing to get!
Spread the love <3

Have a love filled day today! I'm sending you a big hug - just for you. But you need to promise to always take care of your heart and only let good things in there.
I LOVE ME! And you love you!

With risking to sound like an old geezer I must say that my Sweden is like a fairy-tale this time of year.

Sure, bit too cold sometimes, but it is so beautiful I think I'm in some kind of saga.

V-logg: Todays goth cat make up

Didn't even know I succeded in publishing this until now!
Haha, I'm so cute when I'm technique stupid...

Sunday make up.
I made dotted "tears". It looked so cute when I was out and bought fake leaves, candy and aluminum foil.

Valentines Day: 2 days left

How ever far away
I will always love you <3

Almost Valentines Day and I have had absolutely no time to plan anything! Time, who the hell stole mine?!
Well, the kids gifts are done - but what about the Alpha Love?

I wanna goth Valentines Day up. But mostly I wanna give out free huggies (and maybe take just a tiny, tiiiiny nibble in their neck while in the area).

Perfect Valentines Day this year?
How about being tied up real hard in an arm chair while being forced to watch all Star Wars movies in an eternal loop as my mounth gets stuffed with semlor (cardamon buns filled with whipped cream and almond icing) by my sweetheart and the kids are doing funny faces to make me laugh?

Friday should always be a bit extra special - even though I think you should be Friday/Saturday styled every day...
This Friday Synthia said she wanted to be styled as a cat.
Oh, I got so jealous, I wanted to be a cat too!

This is me on my way to school. I have still not painted on my lipstick - I usually do that on the bus (bit late, ey?) .

I tried to match my daughter by wearing black and white stockings as well.
Aww, I just love the kitty cat make up! The cutest me <3
Purr.

Fairlight's leopard outfit

My princess Fairlight got a green stick fracture at school Wednesday :(

She got it from falling from a swing while trying to break some record...

Today she was invited for a birthday party at a "kids play-land". She wanted to be dressed like and wear leopard make up.
Although having a cast she was running around more than the other kids! She's a trooper <3

She looks so good wearing leopard prints!

Today I had a dinner at my in-laws so I tried to look respectable and stylish in my little homemade hat.


I went for ordinary cute today.


and some more...


What the hell, I toss in a close up as well.


Tomorrow it's Friday! Bring out your Friday glasses then!

On the bus on my way to school. I have my pretty mini hat in my bag since it's winter with -10 degrees Celsius I wear my cosy Cat Hat outside to prevent neon red ears that might fall off if one sneezes.

Worst part of winter is you can't really be stylish and warm at the same time. I, who always priority style due to comfort, even have to surrender to soso clothes just for survival, because, let's face it, I just don't wanna end up dead.
But IF I end up dead it would kill me if I was bad dressed...

I have my bat stockings on today so I figured I'd let some escape and land on my face.
It looks a bit messy though...I didn't stop in time. I was simultaneously making cupcakes to my fellow classmates...
Raspberry and vanilla cupcakes turned out perfect though. One out of two isn't bad!
The make up looked better inside my head... but, hell, it works.

Of course something was wrong!

Since the place was more deserted than a outdoor toilet a hot summers day I went for a quest to find any living forms. At level 2 I found a life form, known as female humanoid. I explained my situation and she was very sweet and helped me out by calling the leader.

What came from that phonecall was a real anti climax: The time today was 9:00. No wonder I was the first one to show! The others we're still tucked in their coffins having a lovely time while I have:
1. Panicking over the bus not stopping where it was supposed to making me not know how to get there.
2. Finding the house my husband said I should find. Went in just to find out it was an ordinary school, with kids about 8-9 years. Okay, I might not be that smart, but I didn't think I was supposed to go to business school with that crowd..
3. Helpful teacher send me to the right direction.
4. Entered as the first one there and number
5. just to find out I was 1 hour too early...
And my paper clearly said 08:00.

Hahaha, it's a good start I can tell!
At least the teacher arrived just now, so now I know I'm on the right track for real.

Yes, I made it!

After a wild goose chase I finally end up in the right house (I think) - and was the first one to arrive according to a woman I met.
This makes me a bit worried though.... if I'm the first one here, is everyone somewhere else and I'm at the wrong place still?
(help!)

On a bus

Jumped out of bed happy as ever 05:10.
07:05 I'm on a bus on my way to school (will be every morning for the next 4 weeks). As you can see from the picture it's kind of in the middle of the night here in snowy Sweden.

Being born with the worst local sense ever imagined I just had my first PANIC ATTACK!
The bus will not stop at that place my husband carefully went through with me 4 times before bedtime yesterday. Gaahhh!
I just sent him a text to make me new travelplans from the new stop. If there will be no connection bus I will probably end up dead in a pile of snow since it's like a 20 minute walk in "some" direction....
At least time is in my favour for once.
Being known as the "Second Woman" (ref. Minute Man) I have lots of time to get me to the right place today. I'm known for entering trains 3 seconds before departure. That stuff always stress the hell out of my travel companions - but I say the point is to get on the train before it leaves, not how long before it leaves you have been there.

This will be very interesting to see where I end up today...

I'm down...

...with a fever! All day have been spent in bed sleeping, sleeping, coughing, blowing my nose 376 times and more sleeping.

Worst is I can't be sick now!

I'm starting a 4 week school tomorrow and need to be on my tippie toes.

I have prepared my bag with nostril spray, painkillers and throat tablets as well as an apple and more.

I will defeat this fever!

Hope everyone else is okay  :)

Doing the make up of Miranda X

The lovely daughter, Miranda, of my husbands best friend, W, landed her song straight at number 6 at the charts in the Swedish Radio chart and that made headlights and interviews since she is so young and already so popular. Her song is even more downloaded than Rhianna!
It's the talk of the town!

She invited her best frienthe shoot even better, and they were so good, kind and sweet to Miranda all the time. They all really showed real friendship to be able to be on the shoot all day.
We did 2 kinds of shoots, here is the second:


Thanks everyone for supporting your friend Miranda today! Can't wait to see the shoots! You were all so lovely to work with, and so beautiful.

On my way to have a meeting with Fairlight s teacher to know about her progress in school.
I hope I will only hear words as "perfect ", "kind", "happy", "friendly" and stuff like that.
But as a Goth mum I wouldn't mind hearing she tried to bite her classmates, play games where people are supposed to die and tell the kids scary stories about vampires, zombies and werewolfs so they can't sleep at night. That'd be okay too!
But most important is that she seems happy!

"Goth" gadgets: Candy blox

Well, this isn't a real "goth" item,  but since I'm a huge Lego-fan I decided everyone else who is goth loves Lego too. I simply putting down my foot saying it's so.
I can always claim that most goths are extremly creative, therefore we love Lego. And we are also fond of destruction - therefore we love Lego. The inventer of Lego must have been goth! Yeah, I will decide that.

Annnnyyyy whooo, I JUST discovered this amazing candy (you should not eat candy, but if you do, choose the impressive stuff). Lego candy!!!
The Lego company wasn't clever enough to come up with this idea themselves so they are called Candy Blox instead...but sure, it's a ripoff.

I've never seen them in Sweden.

They should make black liquorice ones as well, real goth candy.

Me answering a question: Your styling was better before!

Sweet Leah said in my comments:
"i think your styling was so much better just a few years ago, in my opinion.
you're still a beautiful woman no matter what, but the way i see it your style has virtually nothing in common with original goth anymore. especially as you always put the emphasis on old school electro/goth yourself. what you've been sporting more recently is becoming more like a teenager's style. :(


i know people will comment and hate me now... so: have fun with it, guys. keep in mind that i didnt mean this to sound rude though."

My Answer:

Leah - I can't but agree! I've became a couch potatoe when it comes to style!

You are totally correct in your views. I always appreciate when people poke on me with a stick so I can shape up! Thank's for the heads up!

Still, this week is crazy and to prevent myself from going into the wall I will take it easy, but on Monday I will do my best to re-invent myself (I do that every now and then) and my style.

I hope you will be pleased. Please give me feedback next week, Leah <3

(just bare in mind - I can't wear full lashes every day because I easily get allergy)

Today's make up

I had a parental meeting today since TeeBee will start pre-school in August.
I have to beg your pardon of the make up since I took the pictures 5 minutes before bedtime and I look crazy tired! But I still think you get the general idea of the swirls.


..and I looked so sweet in gray too, so I made one like that as well :)
