Have I mentioned how much I love the site Haute Macabre?

From the lavish editorial finds
in their
impeccably-curated archive of Tear Sheets
to the highly covetable
objets-de-art
many an absinthe-hued eye would ogle with envy
in the dandy-of-dandiest Domestigoth’s
high-end digs,

this virtual locale of the monochromatic cognoscenti

also posts invaluable blogature

with topics ranging from How To Wear A Headband And Not Look Dumb

to DIY projects for any nifty-crafty

cobweb-slingers interested in harnessing creativity

to learn How To Make Your Own Latex Gear,

or even rock a wicked take on Christian Louboutin for Rodarte’s Spiky Heels With Studs.

Short of the long (of tooth)?

This site is bloody genius.

The following archived cough! STOLEN cough!> editorial post was written by

the sultry wordsmith Samantha, a veteran Suicide Girl who shares her personal exploits at

Five Twenty Three [dot] com

But enough of my incessant rambling–now it’s

“…Over To You, Sam!”

Seeing as how I have spent my entire weekend glued to my computer working while listening to the first of the Sookie Stackhouse books on audio, I feel it totally appropriate to post this vampire editorial sent to us by Clint Catalyst. Since Nixon posted his spoken word video a few weeks back, he and I have bonded over our mutual love of True Blood, so in Fangtasia Fashion, here’s a first look at his recent shoot by Hoda Amel Abdalla.

Clint is shown wearing pieces from Jared Gold’s Caspian Collection runway pieces. Each item is a one off, and was not duplicated for wide distribution.

    The second is the best! Great hat. The third is very interesting, though…simultaneously the bull and the matador?

    dark, gorgeous and just my flavour. Just the visual inspiration I need as I prepare to jump into concept sketch madness.
