Harlequin Hoodie - Cosplay or Fashion?

I got home from a fire show the other night, exhausted from a very long day.  As I was unloading the car, my body told me she was quite finished, and instead of carefully bending down to place the fire show box on the floor, I dropped it from about 2 feet up.It exploded.I think what happened was that the micro torch we use as a lighter was packed awkwardly, and the duvetyn fire retardant cloth...

Steampunk Fleece Jacket - Men's M/L

It's done!  It's done at long last.  Steampunk-inspired stuff sure is labor-intensive.  It's all about the details.This is a Marino Gray fleece Steampunk Jacket.  It's not so steamy that it can't be worn with regular clothes, but the cut and the details invoke the Steampunk aesthetic.  I've been wanting to do a steampunk style hoodie for a long time, and this is my first...

"Legolas" Men's Hoodie - Photos

Finally found the time today to head out to Twin Pines Park in Belmont for a photo shoot with Loren.  I just *knew* this hoodie would look amazing on him.  This was inspired by lots of guys asking me when I was going to start making hoodies for men.. there seems to be plenty of beautiful fae girlie clothing but not a lot of masculine style out there.  I love this one.Listed on Etsy!  ...
