how to dress like you’re homeless (grunge/cryptidcore/ sid jenkins core)

this is how i dress so believe me i am an expert

1. have hair that isn’t long or short, somewhere in the middle. like it doesn’t quite touch your shoulders but it’s not a typical “short haircut”. color doesn’t matter.

2. next, buy band tees, bonus points if they’re oversized. and try to stick with darker colors. you don’t even have to listen to the band. If someone calls you a poser, flip them off.

3. you can’t have body image issues if you never look at your body. add some baggy jeans or cargos. maybe hippie pants or harem pants for a summery look. if you’re more of a fem person then wear a maxi or midi skirt. if it’s hot out put on jorts or baggy men’s cargo shorts (regardless of gender).

4. for accessories don’t put on too many. i usually stick with one or two necklaces and maybe some silver rings (i have fat fingers tho so it’s hard to find rings that fit). if you want to wear a hat you can wear a beanie or trapper hat.

5. pick from the holy trinity of shoes. doc martens, converse, or vans. if you can’t afford any of those, look for knockoffs or buy boots from the thrift/goodwill bins.

6. layer a lot of clothes, i like wearing long sleeves/turtlenecks under short sleeves tees but you can layer with other things like zip ups, flannels, or hoodies

7. to wear over shirts try zip up hoodies, flannels, sweatshirts, cardigans, leather jackets, or black denim jackets.

8. you can find these things from a variety of places. band tees can be purchased on amazon or really anywhere online. jeans i would recommend brands like jnco. cargos can be found almost anywhere. if you can’t find baggy pants buy ones that are too big and wear a belt or tie them with a shoelace. accessories can be found in lots of places but try thrift/vintage stores, see if you can get anything vintage from family, online stores, small businesses, etsy, etc. i buy my shoes online but you can check in stores near you.

Louis XV's royal clutter

Castles opened to the public tend to put a great emphasis on furnitures, paintings and panellings. This focus often occurs at the expense of smaller every day items, such as tools, services, boxes and so on.

Even as far back as the 18th century, inventories of the garde meuble- the administration in charge of the French royal furnitures and collections- often omitted those smaller items, in favour of a greater focus on the furnitures themselves.

Several exception that that rule do exist for instance : When King Louis XV died the 10th of May 1774 in Versailles, his Versailles private cabinets were opened and searched, all the cash and the precious items contained in his cupboards were listed and described in an inventory made 27 days after his death.

Said inventory isn't located in the documents of the House of King(O1 series of the french national archives) like it is usually the case, but in the King's papers, namely in the K series of the national archives, more specifically the K 153.

The document in question was never published nor translated to this date.

The Black Widow, laced with gold

There she is in all her colored glory. Feel free to click on the images and zoom in and take in all of the details because I WILL be giving you an extensive essay on them. This took me over three days to make, most of the time being consumed by the lace and the gold, and I need you to know my creative process.

Huge thanks to Fluffy-foxgirl and Alex-Hime on DeviantArt for creating the base and references!

First of all though, her full name. This is...

Dracule Aurelia!

Yes, she's married to Dracule "Hawk Eyes" Mihawk, World's Greatest Swordsman. Her parents are Silvers Rayleigh and Shakuyaku/Shakky.

NOW, for the details, which will have spoilers spelled like this. I'll be going top left to bottom right:

Her nail polish is a very similar shade to the lining of her coat and her collar. The ring on her pinky finger is the shape of a snake as a reference to her mother being from the Kuja tribe of Amazon Lily and her dearest friend being the ruler of said island, Boa Hancock.

The barrette/hairclip is inspired by the Roaring 20s and their feather headbands. The design of the barrette itself is inspired by Mihawk as well as some hints of vintage upper-class jewelry. The flower on the oval part is one I took from the sleeves of his coat, the feathers are a reference to the feathers on his hat (they're even on the same side) and the cross is a reference to the little cross-shaped dagger around his neck.

The petals on the sleeves of her coat are inspired by the tops Hancock wears, which often have a very similar sleeve design.

The collar of her coat is inspired by both the collar on Mihawk's coat and the collar of a shirt Rayleigh wore when he was younger. The flower at the right edge and the straight frame along the hem both stem directly from Mihawk's coat, the rest of the design is either free-styled or from Rayleigh's shirt. The spider could be a reference to Aurelia's epithet but is actually a reference to the spider motif of her mother.

A small cross necklace as a direct parallel to Mihawk's cross-shaped dagger, as well as a gold body chain.

Ah yes, the dagger. I used to call it "Mini-Yoru" while developing the design, because Mihawk's sword Yoru was the biggest inspiration. Just like Yoru, it's cross-shaped, has a blue gem in the middle of the crossguard and a pommel with a gem at the end. The pommel, in this case, is a spider encased in amber. The dagger's name is Atropos and it was originally a gift from Aurelia to Mihawk because he was getting bored of beating everyone with his big sword and needed a challenge. He used it almost religiously from then on, and gave it back to Aurelia along with the sheath for their anniversary when it had turned into a black blade. The sheath has a snake motif as explained above. I really liked the idea of a lace garter doubling as a holster, so I made exactly that.

The claws, aka the thing that took me the longest to make by far. They're made of pure gold cages with a sharp, solid tip that can slit someone's throat. The wedding ring that Mihawk is fitted to the claw armor on her ring finger and the blue gem is the same color as the one on the crossguard of the dagger. The bracelet attached to the claws has Aurelia's name engraved into it.

omg please take absolutely as long as you need, the wait is soooo worth it. also for the ask game: ttsr! (obviously hehe) and theusher! i was gonna say camboyarmand too but 2 people already beat me to it. well fuck it ig, camboy armand! daniel's teeth kink lmao 🥹🫶

jkdlafshjk

Okay well, The Usher is like a series of drabbles so I tend to complete & post them in one shot, so there's nothing to share from the WIP file except that I based it off a list of kink prompts. The next one will be edging. :) More camboy:

There’s an Amazon package for him a few days later. Something he hadn’t ordered. He’d been too squeamish to check if anyone had purchased from his stupid wishlist, but it’s an over-the-door spice rack he’d thrown on there. Beneath it, under a layer of packing bubbles, is a tripod.

And the next day, there’s a new external hard drive, and a digital camera he can use for streaming, and ring light.

The day after that, the toys arrive.

His hands shake as he unpacks the box on his kitchen counter, wondering what 0mni wants. He’d added everything in such a blur, can’t remember anymore. Even seeing the sleek package, after he pulls back the layer of bubble paper, doesn’t really refresh his memory. For a moment he just stares. THE GRAVITAS 3 is stamped in raised silver letters on the matte black box. Smaller letters beneath it say Mach 2 Prostate Massager. And heres some TTSR 🥸

“Christ, kid, what’d you do? You’re bleeding.” 

And then he was being lifted, beneath his armpits, sat up on the counter next to the sink. 

“It stopped bleeding, I’m okay,” Keith said.  He munched at the bread while his dad wet a paper towel.

“What happened?”

“Rattlesnake,” Keith mumbled with his mouth full.

He was little but he noticed the way his dad paused. The fear that flashed across his face before he could hide it, then the cold way he concealed himself, like he didn’t want Keith to panic. His hands were urgent, wiping the blood away, his thumbs tracing around the wounds.

“Rattlesnake,” he repeated.

“Mm-hmm,” Keith said.

And he covered his mouth. Keith thought he looked a little pale. He grabbed his phone out of his back pocket, then glanced up through he window. Hesitated. 

“Do you… feel okay?” he asked. His free hand cupped around Keith’s cheek, pulled at his eyelid for a moment like he was looking for something.

“I’m okay, Dad.”

Remembering this now, participating as an observer, Keith remembers how his dad kept cool. The way he didn’t try to make Keith feel bad, or stupid, and didn’t want to scare him. How he rushed Keith to the car while he called his firehouse on his phone.

“Meet us halfway?” he was asking, and telling them to make sure they had the anti-venom kit. He lifted Keith up into the passenger seat and shut the door, but Keith could hear him as he came around to get into the driver side. No siren, I don’t want to scare him. Bring the kit.

He kept sipping his juice box, shrugging every time his dad asked him if he was sure he was okay. He kept poking at the bite wound on his leg, and his dad kept telling him to stop touching it. 

“You feeling okay?” He’d ask. “Are you sure it was a rattlesnake?”

“It rattled, Dad. I know what a rattlesnake is.”

all right friends! 😁

my keyboard is complete! words cannot express how much i love this keyboard. i spent so much time thinking about what kind of pcb (body) i wanted, what switches i wanted, and what keycaps i wanted. i even asked for your help! i knew i wanted the body of my keyboard to be aluminum... and it is heavy... and i keep forgetting just HOW heavy it is. i now understand why changbin was lifting felix's keyboard now lol.

anyway, below i will have some pictures and some explanations about the keyboard and how i built it. it's okay if you don't care about any of the details and just look at the pictures lol

onto the build! i'll link everything i used in case you're interested!

for my pcb i have the Keychron Q1 Pro, in black. you can also get this pcb in white or silver. i spent a lot of time looking for a keyboard that would be mac friendly. the GMMK Pro that i was originally looking at, some of the reviews said that the mac settings didn't work that well, even with the proper software. so i went with Keychron, bc i know their keyboards are formatted to play nice with macs. i should also mention that my keyboard is hot-swappable. which means that the switches are not soldered into my pcb. if you want to get a mechanical keyboard and make changes to it, make sure it says, "hot-swappable." also my keyboard has a knob! bc why not, knobs are fun and my knob controls the volume! there is a program that you can use with Keychron to program the knob to do whatever you want it to do. but i like that it controls the volume, there's a satisfying "click" for each turn.

the keycaps are also Keychron. it took me a while to even get to the keycaps. there are too many options for keycaps out there, so be careful! you could end up with too many options like i did 😅 so, i know that in my poll, the dark keys with cmyk text won, but they are out of stock and i wasn't able to find them in the Keychron amazon storefront. i was going to go with the winner between the Akko keycaps... but they tied. so i asked GBF to pick and he chose the cyan and black. but when i was looking at the Keychron amazon storefront, i found an option that was slightly cheaper than the Akkos. but i also chose the Keychron ones bc like i said, Keychron plays nice with macs and had the "command" and "option" keys i would need.

next, switches! in a mechanical keyboard, switches are what make the keys work. in a regular keyboard (or a membrane keyboard), there's a membrane (sometimes it's silicone) that sits between the keys and the board and sends a signal when you press a key. same thing in a mechanical keyboard, except each switch operates on its own. so if a key stops working, you can simply pull the switch out and replace it with a new one! anyway, my switches happen to be mint. did i buy them bc they were mint? no. am i kind of happy that they're mint? yes. i bought them bc they're quite tactile switches. tactile means there's a little bump when the key is fully pressed to let you know that you've hit the key. i've had trouble with linear switches being too sensitive in the past. i ended up getting Durock shrimps! what a cute name lol and i might buy more to put them into my work keyboard...

onto placing keycaps! originally i was going to put o-rings on my keycaps to prevent any more noise, but my switches are already so quiet that it wasn't really necessary. but i also did a typing test and the o-rings actually added too much bulk and didn't allow the switch to fully descend when the key was pressed. so i took them out.

but here is my keyboard fully assembled! the rgb is so pretty too. even though i can't see it through my keycaps, it's still lovely. and the beauty of my keyboard is that i can change the keycaps whenever i want. so if i ever get bored of this lovely, black, mint, and gray combo or those dark keycaps with cmyk text come back in stock, i can always change them!

okay, i know that was a lot and again, it's totally okay if you didn't read any of it and just looked at the pictures 😂 also, my monitor stand came as well, i mentioned that earlier. but it looks so good! my desk looks so organized now! and the only thing missing from my setup is my imac now!

i hope you're doing well, stay safe out there, and stay hydrated my friends! 💖

Top Collection of Oxidized Indian Jewelry Online

In the vibrant world of Indian fashion, oxidized jewelry holds a special place. Known for its distinct, darkened silver finish and tribal allure, this type of jewelry adds an earthy yet elegant touch to any outfit. Online, you can find an extensive collection of oxidized Indian jewelry, ranging from intricate necklaces and bangles to elegant earrings and rings. Here’s your guide to exploring the top collections of oxidized Indian jewelry online and how to style them for any occasion.

1. What is Oxidized Jewelry?

Oxidized jewelry refers to a process where silver metal is deliberately tarnished to give it a dark, antique look. This is achieved by exposing the silver to sulfur-containing substances, causing it to oxidize. The result is jewelry that has a more rugged, vintage appearance compared to the bright sheen of polished silver. Oxidized jewelry is not only stylish but also offers a more durable finish that is perfect for daily wear.

2. Earrings: Danglers and Jhumkas

One of the most popular forms of oxidized jewelry is earrings. Oxidized jhumkas and danglers are a staple in many women's accessory collections. These earrings often feature intricate designs with traditional motifs like peacocks, flowers, and geometric patterns. The dark finish enhances the depth and detail of the designs, making them stand out even more. They pair beautifully with ethnic wear such as sarees and kurtas, but can also add a bohemian touch to a casual jeans and t-shirt look.

3. Necklaces: Statement Pieces and Layers

Oxidized necklaces come in various styles, from heavy statement pieces to delicate layered chains. Statement necklaces often feature large pendants with detailed carvings or embellishments like coins, beads, and semi-precious stones. These are perfect for dressing up a plain outfit or for occasions that call for a bold fashion statement. Layered oxidized chains, on the other hand, are versatile and can be worn with both western and traditional attire. They add texture and interest to any look without overwhelming it.

4. Bangles and Bracelets

Oxidized bangles and bracelets are versatile accessories that can be mixed and matched to create unique looks. These pieces often incorporate tribal designs, weaving, and studding with stones. Stacking multiple oxidized bangles can make for a stylish, boho-chic look. Alternatively, a single oxidized bracelet can be a subtle yet striking addition to a more formal outfit.

5. Rings: From Simple to Elaborate

The beauty of oxidized rings lies in their variety. From simple bands with minimalistic designs to elaborate cocktail rings adorned with large stones, there’s something for every taste. These rings can be worn alone as a statement piece or combined with other rings for a layered, eclectic style. They are particularly popular for their bohemian flair and are often used to accessorize western outfits.

6. Where to Shop Online

When looking for oxidized Indian jewelry online, it’s important to choose reputable retailers that offer quality pieces. Websites like Amazon, Etsy, and specialized Indian jewelry online stores often have a wide selection. Look for sellers that provide detailed product descriptions and clear images, and check customer reviews for insights into the quality and service.

7. Styling Tips

With Ethnic Wear: Oxidized jewelry naturally complements Indian ethnic wear. Pair oxidized jhumkas with a colorful saree or a detailed Anarkali suit for a traditional look.

With Western Outfits: For a fusion look, try wearing oxidized bracelets or a statement necklace with a simple black dress or a white top and denim jeans.

Layering: Combine multiple chains or bangles of varying lengths and designs to create a personalized look that adds depth to your outfit.

8. Care and Maintenance

To ensure your oxidized jewelry maintains its appearance, keep it away from water and moisture. Store it in a dry place, preferably wrapped in soft cloth or inside a jewelry box. If the jewelry starts to lose its luster, a gentle wipe with a soft, dry cloth can help restore some of its original shine.

Oxidized Indian jewelry is a timeless choice that blends tradition with modernity. With its unique finish and intricate designs, it offers endless possibilities to enhance your wardrobe. Whether you are dressing up for a special occasion or just adding a touch of style to your everyday look, the right piece of oxidized jewelry can make a significant impact. Explore the vast collections available online and find pieces that speak to your personal style.
