Let's go see what's new over at
Killstar! This brand is probably my favorite nugoth brand...my favorite goth brand in general. I only own one of their hooded dresses, which I've never worn yet lol. And their awesome pentagram earrings.
First up is a
post-apocalyptic looking sweater... Way overpriced and kind of dated looking. Pass. The
Bardot top looks exactly like an American Apparel top that's cheaper and fits better. I love how the AA top looks, but I'm not buying something I can't wear a bra with. The
velvet halter looks chic even if it's not fitted. Lucky you if you can pull this off without a bra. Lol the
sad goth crop top is just asking for smart-ass comments from jerks and family, and I can't imagine any goth subjecting themselves to that kind of harassment. Did my uncle design this?
I'm not a fan of coffin bags or coffin wallets but these look nice and I'm sure mall goths have depleted the whole stock by now. I gotta say, I'm surprised to see the belted pentagram miniskirt ... This looks so dated to me, very 00s. Wear this with your New Rock boots and you're all set. Especially with the kilt design... I'd totally wear that to a KoRn concert. But the 00s are coming back, so......... The velvet skirt is a classic and great everyday piece.
The
rayne mesh maxi looks cool. I don't know when square skirts came back, but they look awesome. If I had to choose between the
Aurora socks and the
moon socks, I'd choose the latter for the bolder design and I hate ruffles. Lol again with the
sad goth. At least it's not across your chest lol.
If I had to choose between the
chaos street smart tunic and the
bone crush skater dress, I would choose the former. It reminds me of a Shadowrun mage with the hood. Omg another
Sad Goth thing. See you in the sale rack. The other sassy shirt
quit bugging me is less stupid, but I'd rather just have wanted a moth kimono dress. Moths are cool.
Hood dresses are cool, even with the distressed thing going on. Ok, so, I loved the next 3
pentagram hardware dresses and knew I was going to get one. The
Bardot dress is so cool I was almost going to waive my 'if I can't wear a bra with it, I can't buy it' rule. The
bodycon dress is also amazing...but it's a bit too sexy for everyday--even for me--and I've got more than enough "special occasion" stuff to last a lifetime. So I got the
Ziva She's Evil Velvet dress. It's a good length and has awesome angel sleeves and I can pull this off at the office.
Ok so I love all the pentagram necklines like in the
Hexx bodysuit. And I love how the mesh shows off her tattoos. I'd go for the
striped tights over the
striped stockings. Striped Alice in Wonderland socks scream mall goth to me, though the sheer is a nice touch.
Ripped leggings-- girl, put that back on the rack. You can DIY this.
Another
Chaos dress, minus the hood? Pass--hoods ftw. OMG the
Mystic Hannah dress is so awesome. It reminds me of art deco Erte stuff. Gorgeous! The
Nocturne Angel Sleeve dress bills itself as an everyday wardrobe staple, and I could see that. You can dress this up or down, and it doesn't have the wizard sleeves and hood like some of the more extreme Killstar styles (which I love...go big or go home). H&M will knock this off in 3...2... The
Spellbound tunic dress is a shapeless black thing, which will look good with many a patterned legging.
Hope you enjoyed shopping with me. Any thoughts on the Killstar new items?
