New item update in: Earrings
Something a little Steampunk-friendly, which may be a real bonus to those who don't normally wear warm tones (like me!). Most Steampunk stuff I've come across is gold, brown and copper coloured, and although I love the concept of Steam fashion I can't wear warm, tawny shades - my pasty skin tone just starts to look weird next to them. So... mostly silver with "a touch of brass", a new earring design featuring minature faux clockface cabochons:
The faces have metallic gold trim which is picked up nicely by the small gold-lined clear glass beads and the filigree-capped gold glass faux pearls. 6 pairs currently available, and although I hope they can be a regularly stocked item, the clockface cabs are in rather erratic supply so they may end up being a "periodically" stocked item instead.
Yes, this may be a case of "STEAMPUNK - UR DOING IT WRONG" because there's no rust or time-worn corroded finishing here... but SteamFail or not, I like making classy earrings. :P |

The fact that everything in Steampunk seemingly means dingy and dirty always bothered me, it's sterotyping a style that really shouldn't be sterotyped.
But I'd rather wear these anyways. :P | |
