It's that time of year when all the budget-conscious goth babes (and all alternative honeys) are out, restocking on clothing, accessories, make-up and decor items, for a fraction of the price.

It's not our fault 🙃

Those are usually too expensive or impossible to find, during the rest of the year.

Oh and, like previously mentioned:

Fuck capitalism!

But don't feel guilty to treat yourself occasionally, if it gives you the tiniest amount of joy, during these harsh times*.

Just make sure to: ⚠ Be mindful with your purchases - just like you should be with anything and everything else; ⚠ Take good care of them, so they last longer; ⚠ Don't throw away - try to upcycle/modify/repatch/sew or fix it, first! ⚠ And sell or donate whatever you are not using anymore. Tip: If you're considering making a donation, it's often best to contribute locally, such as at your church, the local fire station, or a nearby charity. It's more impactful than donating to large international organizations, where contributions may not be used as intended and everything ends up in a landfill.

*This also applies to food because "money spent on food and clothing is always money well spent" - just like my grandpa used to say.

Again, just make sure to be thoughtful, always prioritize sustainability, and when it comes to food - eat whatever, whenever you want/can. Just be aware and don't make it a rule and always try to find healthy and cheaper food alternatives.

I dedicate this piece to all of the motherfuckers in this cis, heteronormative sport who ever made me feel like there was no space for someone like me, a trans man, in dance.

There is a space for EVERYONE.

I love my sport. I hate you :)

hey internet friends , i am requesting the power of way too many people to find very obscure things

basically i found a dress at goodwill and used it for an upcycle for a school project , and i rlly liked the dress (the one i found wasn't my size) so i thought i'd try to find one my size.

and apparently the dress just , doesn't exist ?

i've used like ,,, every search word combo i can think of , i've gone through reverse image search , i checked resale sites , and i've found a lot of similar things but nothing that matches properly.

i didn't get any pics of the dress before i altered it (i figured i could find one online) but i took one after

possible identifying traits : - brand is jump by wendye chaitin - made of cornflower blue taffeta (i think) - has a border of gemstones across the top of the bodice , but it's not just sparkles stuck onto the fabric it's almost a chain of gems sewn as an add-on to the top - strapless , fitted bodice , i forget the specific term for the skirt but it's sort of a toned-down ballgown ?

if anyone can help please i'd appreciate it so much :,D

here's the pic i do have of the dress - you can see what i meant by chain of gems lol. only differences are the neckline i cut out and a belt i added on

The Sparkling Saga: Swarovski’s Crystal Legacy

From humble beginnings, every monumental success story is born. The artistic and creative minds of the past century have paved the way for remarkable strides in innovation and lifestyle enhancements. These advancements are the fruits of the relentless pursuit of dreams by countless men and women.

In the realm of fashion and luxury, numerous brands have dared to innovate and take risks to deliver excellence. Among these, Swarovski Crystals stands out with a legacy as luminous as its products. The narrative of this iconic brand in the fashion and glamour world is as clear and brilliant as the crystals it crafts.

The Genesis of Swarovski Crystals

The inception of Swarovski Crystals can be traced back to the vision and determination of one individual: Daniel Swarovski I. His journey began with a traditional apprenticeship under his father, a skilled glass cutter. This two-year period of rigorous training in North Bohemia honed his expertise in glass craftsmanship. Yet, Daniel’s ambition extended beyond the security of his father’s factory—he sought to revolutionize the industry.

In 1892, Daniel’s inventive spirit led to the creation of a cutting-edge machine that transformed the art of crystal cutting. Securing a patent for his invention was a strategic move that laid the foundation for the establishment of Swarovski in 1895, a testament to Daniel’s hard work and ingenuity.

The Expansion of an Empire

As Swarovski’s business flourished, Daniel recognized the need for additional resources. He envisioned a dedicated factory that could support his ambitions to advance the crystal industry. Choosing Wattens, Tyrol for its strategic advantages, he safeguarded his trade secrets and stayed ahead of competitors.

Today, Swarovski continues to uphold its founder’s high standards, remaining a global leader in crystal jewelry. The brand’s impact on fashion is historic, enhancing the allure of women worldwide. In 1956, in collaboration with the esteemed designer Christian Dior, Swarovski introduced jewelry inspired by the mesmerizing Aurora Borealis, captivating the market with nature’s beauty encapsulated in each piece.

A Glimmering Milestone

Even before its jewelry became synonymous with elegance, Swarovski made its mark with a sparkling contribution to the 1976 Winter Olympics—a silver crystal mouse that adorned the event’s chandeliers.

Daniel Swarovski I’s legacy is a testament to the power of individual vision and dedication. His pioneering spirit crafted not just a story of crystal proportions but a timeless legacy that continues to shine brightly in the world of jewelry.
