Nymphetamine: Socially acceptable teen spirit
By Celebrity Trollop | January 23, 2007
Prior to December 12, I hadn’t seen any new releases by Nymphetamine’s paeoti Pomeray. But with the new year comes some new releases. The “Socially Acceptable” corset dress came out about a week ago. It’s available in a few different colors (I’m showing the blue but I also have the red). There’s a lot of really rich detailing present here, from the brocaded silk sheen to the flirty lace cuffs to the sartorially sly slinky skirt. I really enjoyed the drama that the armlets add, deconstructing a dress that has a touch of a Victorian feel and remolding it into something that for certain would not be thought of kindly in those old mahogany paneled drawing rooms.
For a jewelry accent, I wanted something extremely glamorous, so I chose to wear Cailyn Miller’s super elegant Christobel. This ornate and regal jewelry creation is available in a variety of gemstone colors. The detailing on the piece is quite intricate, and it instantly elevates whatever you pair it with.
I can’t get enough of the recent Amy release by Calico Ingmann. I’ve really gotten attached to her hairs lately, and this style in particular really flatters my inner girly girl. It’s a soft and lush looking hair with more of those magical soft flexi-prim curls. The way this hair looks in motion and at rest is just tremendous. I get compliments on it all the time.
As for my other outfit, I just about died laughing when I unpacked pae’s “Smells like Teen Spirit” release. I had seen this hilarious set of photos on Queenie Extraordinaire’s blog the other day, so I was really thrilled when paeoti dropped a copy on me to check out. Smells like Teen Spirit definitely draws inspiration from the Anarchy cheerleaders on Nirvana’s eponymous video, but they’re way less punk, and quite a bit more sassy. I decided I’d just turn my set up to 11 in the fetish department, adding gauntlets and boots from Dark Eden — but if you want to be more perky than emo, paeoti has thoughtfully included a set of pom-poms with a low key fun particle effect.
Christobel is available at Cailyn’s in Butsu. Amy is available at any Calico Creations store (but her main store is in Furness.) All of paeoti Pomeray’s designs can be found at Lil’ SLurgis or Siren’s Grotto.
