Letter Shoppe

Have I found my people? 👀 If you’re seeing this, you’re that badass nerd with chaotic bi energy, ADHD, and an alternative style that says “yes, I could haunt your dreams *and* recommend an brillant book about serial killers.” Today was my first time wearing this jumper from @Unique Vintage which has been sitting in my closet for over two years. I know, it’s criminal. But add fishnets, and suddenly I’m convinced every outfit is 10x better. And honestly, with today’s weather feeling like the last gasp of warmth before autumn fully rolls in, it just felt right. Now, it’s storming outside, the temperature’s dropping, and the leaves are practically raining from the trees. It’s officially spooky season, and I am HERE for it. If you’re also into horror movies, rainy days over sunshine, books that make you double-check the locks, and have an unhealthy obsession with Halloween decor (that just *never* goes into storage), we’d probably be besties. 🍂🖤✨ #halloweenlifestyle #alternativestyle #darkacademiavibes #spookyseason #fishnets #adhdwomen #badasswomen #rainyday #autumnvibes #spookytreats #sassygirl

Oh, you don’t like my thrifted outfit? 😏 Well, THANK YOU so much for your opinion! I’ll make sure to never speak to you again. 😘 It’s not my fault you can’t recognize high fashion when it’s thrifted! Yeah, I know I’m mixing all the patterns and rocking a look straight from 2006 with my shorts over leggings—but guess what? I wear what makes me happy, and that is the only opinion that matters. 💅✨ So why is my outfit any of your business? Spoiler alert: it’s not. 😎 #thrifting #alternativefashion #plussizefashion #thriftfind #ownyourstyle #patternmixing #thriftqueens #highfashion #thriftlife

How long has that been there?! #spookynails #halloweennails #darkacademiaaesthetic

✨ Dark Academia Water Bottle Glow-Up ✨ You ever have that moment where you’re scrolling through endless water bottle designs, and NOTHING speaks to your gothic, book-obsessed soul? Same. I was super bummed when I couldn’t find any stickers that match my goth vibes—so I thought, why not make them myself? I’m going full dark academia with this HydraPeak water bottle, which is already perfect (seriously, the size, the grip, the look 😍), but now it’s getting a whole new spooky makeover. We’re talking books, candelabras, a grim reaper, and a whole lotta gothic fantasy flair. If you’re into horror novels, fantasy epics, or just vibing with all things mysterious and moody, these stickers are made for you too. 💀📚 Time to sip in style and take my dark academia obsession everywhere I go. 🖤✨ #darkacademia #gothicvibes #booklover #waterbottle #spookyseason #horrorlover #stickers #BookTok #darkfantasyaesthetic #gothicaesthetic

Sometimes, the only solution is a feral cat army. 🐾🔥 I’ve decided that unearned kindness is overrated. Instead, I’ll take in every unwanted black cat from local shelters, build them a gothic spiderweb throne, and lead my feline army to victory—or at least world domination. 😼✨ This piece is all about channeling that inner rage, refusing to be 'the bigger person,' and letting your dark, unapologetic self shine. Because, honestly? Life is too short to play nice when you’ve got claws and fangs in your corner. 💀🕸️ If you're a black cat lover, into gothic vibes, or just feeling a little ragey today, this one’s for you. Let’s normalize embracing our villain era, but with a little feline flair. Who else is ready to sit on the throne with their own brood of chaotic cats? 👑✨ #gothichome #blackcats #tattooideas #darkacademiaaesthetic #adoptdontshop #alternative

Do these nails still give off the Gothic vibe I was going for? 🖤 The inspiration was sharp stiletto nails, perfect for that edgy, alternative aesthetic, but since I’m growing mine out naturally, we went with a more rounded shape instead. They’re not quite long enough for that dramatic cello-ready look, but I still think they turned out super cool and unique! This was a first for my nail tech, and considering they were only $30, I’m beyond happy with how they turned out. Definitely some Gothic nail inspiration for anyone growing their nails out naturally! Let me know—do they work for the Gothic/alternative aesthetic, or should I go for sharper next time? 👇 #gothicnails #alternativeaesthetic #nailinspiration #darkaesthetic #altfashion #nailtransformation #witchyvibes #nailartinspo

Ever feel like hitting the reset button? Same. ⚡ My shop will be closing at midnight this Friday. After that, all products will be gone for good. I’m not sure when the shop will be back—maybe in a couple of weeks, or maybe next year. All I know right now is that I need a break from constantly trying to sell things and just want to focus on creating spooky shit for the love of it. But don’t worry I’ll still be posting regularly 👻🖤 What’s coming next? I’m embracing a new chapter where my art will be more cohesive—simpler, darker, and more focused. From now on, when I release a collection, it’ll be available for just two weeks. Then, the shop closes, and I dive back into making. No more burnout, just pure creative energy. 🎨✨ 👉 This is your last chance to grab any designs you see before they disappear. My other pages will still be live, and you can still check out my Gothic Gazette blog for updates on playlists, spooky books, shows, and what I’m currently drawing (just in case you miss my posts here). 🖤📚 ✨ Want to help shape my next collection? Join my newsletter to vote on what pieces get turned into products! Your support means the world to me, and you’ll get first dibs on everything I create. 🖤 So if you’ve had your eye on something, now’s the time. I’m excited for this new chapter and hope you’ll come along for the ride.

Stop shrinking to fit into spaces that were never meant for you—and take up all the room you need. I’ve always been the tallest in my friend group, hunching over for years to fit in, even when my parents told me I was born to stand out. At 5’9” in flats, and a towering 6’4” in these 5-inch platforms, I’m barely squeezing through doorways and grazing my fingers on every ceiling. Now, instead of shrinking away, I own every space I walk into. When I stand up, heads turn, eyes follow—it used to make me feel insecure, but now it just fuels my power. If anyone doesn’t like it, well, I might just crush my enemies under these boots. 💀 #gothicgirl #altfashion #plussizeootd #selflovejourney #divinefeminineenergy #tallgirl #darkacademia #gothicstyle

All i know is that i look good ❤️‍🔥 #datkacademia #altfashion #whimsigoth #plussizefashion #fashionstyl

Halloween week: not for costumes but for unleashing your darkest, truest self 🖤 This week I threw on everything that makes me feel powerful—spiked boots, Gothic layers, and dark academia vibes—all at once. There’s something magical about embracing the freedom to dress exactly how you want. Who else felt totally themselves this week? #halloweenoutfit #darkacademiafashion #gothicstyle #altoutfits #altgirl #plussizeootd #plussizegoth

Nothing beats the thrill of post-Halloween decor finds! I’m transforming my home from 70s vintage to a dark academia, Gothic dream, and I’m taking you along for every step. I scored some incredible pieces: spooky lights, celestial jewelry, and even Halloween Squishmallows (yes, please!). I’m all about the hunt for unique, moody decor at killer prices, hitting up spots like Walmart, TJ Maxx, Ross, Aldi, thrift stores, and antique malls to bring my vision to life. I can’t wait to show you all the deals I’ve found in an upcoming house tour. Let’s redecorate together and keep the Halloween vibes alive all year! 🖤 #darkacademiaaesthetic #gothichome #thriftyfinds #alternativedecor #posthalloween #spookyhome
