Sometimes most unexpected things make the best accessories! Take cupcakes for instance: what can be more glamorous than walking through the streets with a cute box full of chocolate mint minicakes?!


This laser-cut unicorn necklace was made for me by CupcakesAndMace!

Those beads look like candy, yum!
On a side note, in case you haven’t noticed – I LOVE PURPLE! Everything I wear recently has to have at least something purple – even if it’s just lipstick!
- Dress: from Canal Street in New York
- Unicorn necklace: CupcakesandMace
- Belt: from Etsy
- Purse: thrifted; I customized it by adding beads to the handle & painting them pastel colors
- Shoes: United Nude (visible in this post)
- Makeup: Lime Criminal magic dust, Airborne Unicorn lipstick by Lime Crime.
Deerlings: what is your color of the moment?

Purple is my signature color! I’m actually wearing it right now ha! That dress is super effing cute and I love how you customized the bag. What a great idea!
Cupcakes are hands down the best accessory. Carrying a box of cupcakes is the best way to make new friends :)

Purples actually been my favorite color for the past few months, I’ve rarely strayed from purple eyeshadow, purple shoes, purple clothes!

September 4th, 2009 at 9:49 am
Oh my god, I would KILL for that unicorn necklace!
Also, I just bought a cupcake ring from Chinatown and it’s my new favorite accessory!

Purple is my favorite color, but I’ve been wearing a lot more of it lately. This is probably my FAVORITE outfit I’ve seen you in, Doe! I love how redheads just make purple WORK for them. :)
[Reply]
September 4th, 2009 at 9:59 am
Red and black!
I love the outfit, the purple is so pretty with your hair!
[Reply]

I too have been wearing a lot of purple! I love the dress. And I cannot wait for Airborn Unicorn. What phenomenal taste (and talent) you have, Doe.

I love peurple but I am wearing a lot of pink and red recently :)

I just love color! So my daily style is set on wearing a different color every day. Its weird, I read a quote on your site that inspired me that said “Wear to impress, even its just going out to go get toilet paper.” And that’s been my Motto for the past couple of days.
So more or less I”ve been dressing in color:
Monday: Led Zepplin Concert T-shirt with skinny jeans flats and Treasure Chest eyeshadow.
Tuesday: (truck day so comfy clothing neccesary) Diva Eyeshadow with general tshirt no style.
Wednesday: Empress with brown tanktop jeans and brown flip flops
Thursday: White with skinny dark blue jeans with white peephole shoes showing my orange toenails Diva and Dragonscales Eyeshadow
Today: PURPLE, a shirt from target, Empress eyeshadow, Lincoln Park at Dark nail polish from O.P.I and black flats!
No specific color as of yet, we’ll see when subbing starts up.

Oh, man, red is always my color of choice. Hence the attacks of heart-shaped love I get every time I see your hair! ;)

Hot pink. Just dyed my hair last night :D

I’ve been madly in love with turquoise for months now. Actually, most every shade of blue has been my favorite for years, but before turquoise it was indigo and blue-violet. Now I’m edging towards purple shade again, but sometimes a bright peacock blue or green will feel like just the thing I need.

Bright red! Their is a beautiful wool trenchcoat that I’m eyeing for this winter. I have to put it on layaway though…but it is wonderful!
Anything red is tickling my fancy!
[Reply]
September 4th, 2009 at 2:32 pm
I going through a huge fuchsia and magenta phase. Red is typically my color of choice because it looks so good on me. But fuchsia is my new lover.

Does anyone else think that the Airborne Unicorn in these photos looks more pink than purple, or is it just my monitor that’s distorting the color? (Seriously, it’s been evil the past three days.)
I can’t seem to get enough of green with hints of purple lately. I’ll wear green clothes with purple jewelry and purple hair extensions. Lime Criminal and Empress look absolutely stunning together, with a little Snow Queen for highlights. And then I swipe some Empress over my shimmery mauve lip gloss.
(By the way, did anyone else know that putting LC magic eye dust over lip gloss seems to create a color-stay bond? I’ve gone up to six hours without the color fading, smudging, or transferring onto my drinks and food. Usually I have to re-apply lip gloss once every couple hours.)
I’m also really diggin’ on Mediterranean/cerulean/deep tropical ocean blue. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to find much of that color in a curvy size at a price I’m willing/able to pay.

Bright pink, especially when combined with turquoise/peacock blue which have been my signature colours for years.
Even my headphones are bright pink at the moment.

@Brinna Madly jealous of your pink hair. I haven’t been able to dye mine for a while due to work, but I’m planning to do it when I go back to uni.

Ohh, I adore that dress! Soo gorgeous!

Seafoam green!! (inspired by Arizona green tea :) I just painted my room- is calming and energizing at the same time :o

September 4th, 2009 at 4:56 pm
Mini cupcakes are so cute :)
My color of the moment? I almost always wear black…but my signature color is usually midnight blue, though sometimes poison green or very dark green feel more like me.

I’ve always loved anything in the blue hues, however i’m currently obsessed with electric blue~ I absolutely love wearing something really simple such as a white summer dress and accenting it with an electric blue purse/earring/ring etc.

The lipsitck loooks great, very wearable. I suppose the lipsticks will look “normal” if you wear them with an equally loud outfit.

September 4th, 2009 at 6:03 pm
I love your dress, its super cute! And I’m in love with the nail polish your wearing, its such a pretty green!

I’m trying to avoid wearing too much purple, as I tend to go overboard with it. You are not helping! ;)

September 4th, 2009 at 7:41 pm
My color of forever and always is chartreuse– as if the way it sounds weren’t enough, it’s absolutely gorgeous! Even ugly chartreuse things almost beg to be brought home with me. :)
AND, I’m absolutely in love with the unicorn necklace. Etsy, here I come!

I love your expression in the first pic! It’s like:
“What do you mean you don’t like cupcakes?”
With a bunch of attitude. LOL!
I love this outfit: the dress, the necklace, the purse… oh the purse!!
[Reply]
September 5th, 2009 at 3:54 am
Wow, I absolutely love that dress! You have such amazing style, I WISH i could raid your wardrobe. :P
I guess my colour of the moment would be grey, even if thats kind of boring! i have this cute grey pinstriped shorts i got while i was in florida and this amazing double breasted grey jacket that i wear everywhere. :)

I am going through a red phase at the moment. I think I had 4 different shades of red in my outfit today. Perhaps a bit much?

Lime Green…been my color for quite sometime, but another more recent kick.. BRIGHT blue! anything neon or almost neon is right down my street. Love the eyeshadow and I am so falling in love with that sweet purple color…makes me want frosting for some reason.
[Reply]
September 5th, 2009 at 10:57 pm
You look really different here for some reason. Is it the makeup? You look really sweet and innocent! (we all know better though;)) I’m not saying you don’t always look nice! But you just look different. I think it’s the pale lipstick?
I’ve always been a RED girl! I love lots of colours. Unfortunately I tend to only wear black at the moment, as ever since I became a mum I’ve loathed my ugly body, and black makes me feel nice and invisible :( I am on a mission to get skinny though so i can wear all the pretty stuff again without looking like an inflatable mutant wedding cake!
I’m not usually much of a purple gal, but that dress is so lovely! I do adore polka dots >.<

VIOLET! *.*
I don’t know why, but right now, I’m really obsessed with this colour!
Last week I bought a handbag, shoes, a dress and some accessories in this colour and I LOVE them! <3
I think, violet is my favourite colour now, after forest green and black!! ^_______^

September 6th, 2009 at 5:29 am
With pink hello kitty watch, pink jammies, pink tea cup, pink knee highs and pink computer mouse, I’m pretty sure my current colour is…du du, Pink!
Been following your blog for about a year now, its a nice break and relaxation from stressful daily life or a nice companion to the morning coffee :)

I am definitely going through a pink phase, though…it’s kind of scary. :)

My favorite color has been purple since I was at least 5 years old! In fact, I think I have way too much purple in my wardrobe…perhaps I should branch out a little :D
