Black Math


dress - c/o Choies // black mesh blouse - AA // triangle eye necklace - c/o Luna Nera // sun and moon necklace - c/o Earth Shine // hat, Harley boots, and all other jewelry - vintage

Whatta perfect dress, seriously. This dress incorporates some of my favorite elements in a clothing piece: black, elephants, and gold. The cold shoulder sleeves make this more of a summer-approriate piece, but I'll probably be wearing it all throughout our winter times, if those times are to ever come to stupid hot LA that is. The silver sun and moon necklace has been on my blog before, and it's from Earth Shine, aka one of the best Etsy jewelry shops on the interwebz that also happens to be very affordable considering it's all handmade, y'all. The owner Kelly is super nice, and she's always adding new pieces to the shop! I love all the new pieces right now.. Ouija board rings, seashell bracelets, pizza necklaces, mushroom ear cuffs, and of course celestial pieces. Check it all out here. And Luna Nera is also a notable favorite. The jewelry is more on the minimalistic, avant-garde, but still very wearable side. The owner Nina is also very sweet, and her stuff usually consists of eyes (lots and lots of eyes), crosses, triangles, the fatima hand, and stays true to her shop's name by including tons of moons and lunar jewelry.

I sort of wish I hadn't seen this post because I just checked out Luna Nera and now I'm obsessed.
Everything you have on is amazing.
