June is the most popular month to get married in, or so I’m told by those useless magazines in the supermarket checkout line while I’m waiting for the octogenarian in front of me to argue about whether or not her pears are organic and the cost of lip balm. I’m generally pretty horrified of the whole spectacle of weddings- they reek of rom-coms, those terrible bachelorette parties where someone wears a tiara, and messy divorces that require lawyers to determine who gets custody of the Labradoodle. But then again, there’s this.

   ARG! Why is there no credit on the designer????? Any ideas as to who made it?

   Swooooon. (even though it’s pink!) Beautiful, creative design that doesn’t ignore the shape of the body.

   Love your blog… wondering if you’ve heard of Black Milk Clothing? They have a few designs that seem right up your alley (namely the Black Venus, Resurrection, and Burned Velvet leggings, but there are lots more.. http://shop.blackmilkclothing.com). I am a big fan, haha.. Cheers!

   I can see a woman wearing this in the yard, months after the wedding. She is serenely watering her roses when the HOA representative walks up and tells her that her black-painted McMansion is not in keeping with the development’s Tudor-inspired aesthetic. She silently floats back inside after delivering several gallons of water via high-pressure hose nozzle to the representative’s face.
   … at least, that’s what I imagine marriage and the american dream would be like.

    Baxt,

    Fully backin’ your version of the American Dream [ visions of Morticia Addams snipping off those pesky rosebuds so she can keep the thorny stems notwithstanding ]

    &

    Nixon,

    Thanks for the LOLercaust induced via verbiage. Needed a side order of chuckle this eve along with my standard entrée of darkness—& oh, how you delivered. ?

    Insofar as aforementioned hate crimes over the color pink, I’m of a different school: loathe the shades most commonly found in unnatural habitats along Hollywood Boulevard, though in my world? It’s khaki in various hues than induce the blues.

    Here’s to
    Keeping It Black,
    Cx

    P.S. Ah, &

    Whether it’s Skingraft/Skin.Graft or SKINGRAFT?

    Love.

    Seems such an obvious statement to make, that : though I’ve never claimed “subtlety” as my forte. [ Superfluous much? O.K., O.K. . .color me outta here! ]

    Hey now, my gothy wedding gown was pale pink and black and I think that worked out pretty well! I love this gown. Ugh, if only I could have worn 5 different gowns on the day, I would have.
