I'm not usually into skull motifs on clothes, particularly prints -- they're a little obvious for me, and I don't like that whole Hot Topic post-punk stars-and-skulls thing, but when I spotted this sheer blouse back in September I had to have it. The design of the skulls themselves is a little more organic, a little edgier (one friend said they reminded him of Skullphone, a fairly prominent graffiti artist around here), and I like that the colorway varies between off-white and a more tea-stained shade:

Off-work, I play up the sheerness of this blouse and wear it with just my bra underneath (as Karl Lagerfeld has said, if you're afraid of actually showing skin under sheer looks, you just shouldn't wear them!), but for work I wore an American Apparel camisole to keep everything PG, and paired it up with basics.

You can see all my Halloween photos over at WR2BAM:LIFE (which is back on the regularly-updated tip after being neglected for a while), and you can also read about how I drunkenly dropped and broke my digital camera, so this will be the last LTK until I can buy a new one. Whoops!
