Ah, this makes me want to run out of the house this minute in search of a good linen button down, fabric to make a snakeskin skirt, beads to make a bunch of bracelets and then rummage through my jewelry drawers for all my great rings. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
I have a fantastic wood skull bracelet I got for under $10 on the boardwalk in Venice Beach, CA. If you live there go buy one. They guy who sells them is cah-ray-zay but they are pretty cool!
I love that the way this cuff this keeps the shirt looking structured, even though the shirt seems a bit shapeless. Also something about the textures and colors in this are striking a delightful cord for me.
also, the rosaries are interesting–especially that she is wearing five and not some other number. i think her fashion may also be function, of sorts, as a crown of five skulls was worn by the deity who this rosary indicates. look up “mahakala” if interested.
i love the roll.
and the bone beads [hopefully recycled, not hunted].
the pants and skulls are an exotic and matching team.
bone itself is “grounding” so it makes the outfit not ‘wild’.
i think of these things!
this side view made this just a perfect photo.
The fact that she wears five of those on her wrist can NOT be coincidence. But the whole thing is very attractive. i just don’t see how her sleeve stays like that.
:) @Martine, thank you- good catch. i could learn more about Tibetan beads. also, i think i have memories of seeing exotic rare single beads in special stores made from bone. that’s how i learned about hunted bone , ivory. wood or not, i got the feeling of “grounded”, which makes sense- wood is still grounding like trees themselves :)
Shows the incredible talent of the photographer! To have caught my interest (and envy) because it’s a fabulous photo of someone who has immense style and confidence and yet all I can see is an arm!! Would this have had the same impact if you’d taken a full picture of her I wonder? Fabulous :-)

When I was younger I went out and bought myself a bunch of handmade skull bracelets off eBay. I thought I was so cool…
This girl, however, is beyond cool.

you can find the skull bracelets at most tibetan shops (in the states) or markets (india/nepal). they are about 20 rupees in dharamsala.

Love this! Guessing it’s a skirt (and I want it), but looks a little like these Bottega Veneta pants (any size 2′s out there go for it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BOTTEGA-VENETA-Chic-Beige-Brown-PYTHON-Pants-38-NWT-/230653023684#vi-desc)

I could be wrong, but I believe Tibetan prayer beads are made of wood. Not bone.
