THE COVET LIST † November 2019
FACETED DROP PERFUME AMULET // FOR STRANGE WOMEN // $110
Handmade using natural crystals, the perfume amulets from For Strange Women are the stuff of witchy dreams.
The amulets hold a small amount of perfume— a sample of which is included with your order—so that you can anoint yourself with one of For Strange Women’s unique fragrances throughout your day.
CTHULHU PLUSH // KILLSTAR // £19.99
Lovecraft is problematic man. We all know that. But the fact remains that Cthulhu is a super fun mythos that we all can appreciate, and I’m sure this cute plushy Kreepture would love to make its home in the depths of your bedroom.
That sounds a little weird, but you know what I mean.
THE MAGICIAN NOTEBOOK // OPEN SEA DESIGNS // $22
Open Sea Designs creates amazing stationary and art prints. The Magician notebook is inspired by the major arcana card, and, like the major arcana card, this notebook is here to help you create and manifest your dreams.
Open Sea Designs also makes a gardening notebook, and I highly recommend it for all the green thumbs out there.
REVOLT EARRING // REGAL ROSE // $46
Regal Rose has several earrings with the blade/knife motif, and they are all beautiful, but I love this scimitar earring.
The Revolt Earring is 18kgp and encrusted with faceted garnets.
DEPTHS OF DARKNESS KNIT SWEATER // KILLSTAR // £44.99
Fall is upon us, and while this sweater may not keep you super warm, it is very cute, and I am in love with it. I will forever enjoy the destroyed/absolutely in shambles sweater trend, and besides, I live in the south. My sweaters don’t need to be that effective.
La Femme En Noir makes gorgeous, jaw-dropping gothic and horror themed attire, and while I can go ahead and say that I covet the entire line, the Bauldelaire dress really does it for me.
With a touch of Victorian flair and a dollop of 50s glamour, this dress is perfect for special occasions and, well, whenever you wanna feel real pretty.
EMERALD HEADBAND // SHINY BEAUTY STORE // $82
This is no secret, but I feel that I need to confess that I am truly, deeply, sickeningly in love with ornate headbands.
Made with Swarovski crystals, Czech glass beads, and golden charms, this ornate headband looks less like a headband and more like a tiara for a forest elf, and quite frankly that is the look I wish to achieve.
NO. 12 — BACCHANAL CANDLE // FOLKLORE CANDLE CO. // $16 - $28
Folklore Candle Co. is one of those companies that really just begs you to destroy your credit. You know? Always offering cool, romantic, witchy little luxuries.
Bacchanal is particularly alluring. It is described as smelling of “heady merlot, bitter dark chocolate, and golden droplets of honey”—and you know what, there’s no need to further entice me with that kind of language. Gods.
I covet this candle in a way that is obscene, and it shall soon be mine even if—or especially if—I have to dance for Bacchus under a full moon in order to get my greedy goblin fingers on it.
CULT TEE // PSYCHIC POWERS SOCIAL CLUB // $23
Kind of the odd one out on an otherwise shimmery, gaudy list, but hey, the heart wants what it wants.
This tee from the LA based company Psychic Powers Social Club is not going to be everyone’s cup of tea (tee? hahaha—shoot me. I deserve it.), but it certainly is mine, and I’m going to guess that its also some of yours.
It is a reference to the acid-fueled fun of certain nonreligious religious cults, and why would you drop acid and have an orgy with a bald, goateed man, when you can just wear this neat shirt.
Oh, because it sounds fun? Fair enough.
But besides just being a really cool, horror brand, Psychic Powers Social Club only uses WRAP certified fabrics, which means sweatshops are never involved with the making of their clothes, and I think we can all applaud that.
