Just Your Everyday Kelly from St. Trinian's

A little while back, when I should have been doing homework, I watched the movie St. Trinian's. It was love at first sight, and I have been dreaming of attending a boarding school ever since, even though I doubt that real boarding schools are nearly as fun as this one. Anyways, I saw this skirt today, and it reminded my of the head girl, Kelly.

I pretty much just took her usual costume, and made it into a polyvore set. I did add the head girl badge, because even if she doesn't wear one, you want people to know what you are dressed up as.

One of my favorite things about her look was how she took a long pencil skirt and button down top and made them incredibly sexy. I also adored her sleek black bob and red lipstick, but they are always sexy, no work required.

Just Your Everyday Vampire, Part 1

Today, I have adapted what is possible my all time favorite halloween costume into an outfit.

Just Your Everyday Vampire, #1 by RosieUnknown

The Vampiress.

Leather, alligator skins and silver are materials I have always linked to vampires, so they are obviously included. As for the colour scheme, pretty simple I think, red for the blood, the passion and black for the night, the darkness within. I put in all the skulls to symbolize death, obviously.

Just Your Everyday Witch

As you all probably know, Halloween is fast approaching. I decided to do a little series of polyvore sets of outfits that have just a bit of costume to them to celebrate the event. I give you...

Everyday Witch!

The dress. I have always seen witches as having rather full skirted dress, and this one just felt right. I chose these shoes because, once again they felt right. Also, lace up, high heeled, black ankle boots? How awesome are they!!! Since every witch needs a familiar (animal friend of above average intelligence), and carrying around an actual animal is rather hindering, I used the purse. I picked cat purses, since I adore black cats, but you could go for an owl, oar anything you like really. It can get pretty chilly when you are flying through the sky, so I included some kelly green tights for warmth and a pop of colour. I think because it looks like some thing you would find in a cauldron, kelly green has always been a very witch-y colour to me. Ditto on the purple, and since you wouldn't want to get your hands dirty while mixing potions, out come the gloves! Finally, the necklaces. I felt that the outfit needed just a touch more colour, and the stones felt rather mystic to me.

Playing Dress Up: Just Your Everyday Cat Woman

Update: This post is now a part of a series of outfits with a hint (or several) of costume in them.

Just Your Everyday Cat Woman by RosieUnknown

Usually, when I post a polyvore set, I talk about why I chose certain items, what was inspiring me. The thought behind this set is very simple: it is sleek, it is sexy, and it is what I wished I was wearing. Because there are two Rosie Unknowns: the real one, who is typing this and wearing jeans with a sweater, and then there is the other Rosie Unknown, who is dancing the night away and wearing the above outfit. Confused? This is what my dream self is wearing.
