The Butcher's Daughter Treasure Trove

Just a quickie installment of the treasure trove! 

Obviously I still have my Lady Gaga Meat costume on the brain.

I guess having it hanging up on my wall doesn't help matters much. 

I just can't help it. It's so much fun!

This would work as an unusual Halloween costume, squirts of blood added separately.

Finished: Gaga Meat Costume

I'm not sure of how many of you reading are Lady Gaga fans, but when my friend mentioned a Lady Gaga/David Bowie theme party...I couldn't resist. So, do you like my felt steak fascinator?

I don't have many opportunities to go to theme parties or really any college parties for that matter. 

I had forgotten just how much fun I have putting together a costume!

Anyways, I'm sure most know about Gaga's meat dress at the VMAS (which I didn't actually watch), 

but few are aware of her meat-clad cover for Vogue Hommes Japan. 

I set to work on my rendition of her meat couture, swapping out meat for felt.

Since I'm rather demure when it comes to nudity, I attached the felt to a nude bodysuit. Alas, I do not recommend pinning/hot gluing pieces when you're wearing the actual garment!

After layering two pairs of tights, gobs of cheap gold necklaces, and red lipstick, I was good to go party the night away...but not without first hiding myself under my newly thrifted trench. 

I became more bold once the other Gagas emerged from the cracks.

I couldn't help but get miffed every time someone said they liked my meat dress.

Note: This is not my Halloween costume! I have something else in the works.

And we'll just leave it at that. For now.

Until next time, ♥.
