Hat / Ebay, jacket / F+F, shirt + pants / Bodyline, boots / Demonia
Since I am pretty much broke nowadays and wanted some new stuff, I opted for Bodyline stuff. Our joint order conveniently arrived at my girlfriend’s house today while I was there so I got my stuff with me straight away. I bought a pair of pants and a shirt with intentions on modding both of them, and that I did. This is what I started with;

Check out that awesome blur, yo. Sometimes I have no explanation to my failure.
Anyway, fresh out of the package the pants I ordered are capri-lenght and have a dumb-looking butt flap. There was supposed to be a chain with them as well but I either left it in the bag or they didn’t send it in the first place, but I don’t think that’s too much of a loss, hahah. I ditched the butt flap straight away and shortened them to knee-lenght, and they look surprisingly good that way! The only problem I have with them is that the material gets wrinkly really easily and the inseam pulls a bit, but oh well. You get what you pay for. The lace they used is nice cotton though, which was a nice surprise after seeing the shit they tried to pass off as lace in some of the shirts that arrived in the same package…

Collar detail.
I also modded the shirt a bit, as in added two rows of ruffles on the sleeves (because damn, those are some plain-ass sleeves right there, not to mention too short) and took in the boob slots.
I also ordered some GLP stuff (can you say cheapskate? I can!) ages ago and got them last Friday, as in the socks in the above picture and this bag:

This bastard is HUGE. But it’s awesome, tacky and gothic so I love it all the same. And anyway, a coffin-shaped bag that can easily fit two wine bottles inside it is win in my books.

You honestly didn’t think I’d leave the socks as they were, right? I took out the tacky bows and the lace and all was well.
I like my cheap stuff just as much as I like my burando; this whole coordinate (well, save for the hat) is cheap pieces all around and it really doesn’t look half bad. You just need to know what to pick from the “cheap” stores, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit Bodyline and F+F sometimes leave me speechless with some of the crap they try to sell.
As a bonus, having your sock garters pop open while your timer is running makes for some interesting poses;

Aha, your last picture made me smile actually :>
The -now converted- shorts looks really cool in your pictures, wrinkly fabric aside. Your vision for them was a really good choice since capri would make the legs inside the pants look weird each time they slightly bent.

You made those clothes even more awesome. And holy cow that coffin purse? I nearly had a spaz attack when I saw it. My coffin purse can’t even hold my wallet :( and certainly doesn’t have crosses and chains on it.

@ Orube / Thanks :B And yeah, they just looked REALLY dumb at their original lenght, hahah.
@ Lynne / Thankss! :D
@ Caro / Lol, I nearly had a spaz attack when I took it out of the box. I didn’t exactly check the measurements when I ordered it, turned out it’s 40 cm tall… Suits me just fine, I just expected it to be about half the size, lmao.
