Platform Boots, Neo Goth

I bet you didn’t see THIS one coming, now did ya? Me dressing like some rebel gothic hacker, Lisbeth Salander style? What can I say, I’ve always been a big fan of women dressing like badasses. I guess for me it all started with Michelle Pfeifer’s Catwoman – first girlcrush for sure – and went on with characters like Aeon Flux, Leeloo, Tank Girl and real life personality Gwen Stefani. I’m probably not the only one who finds style inspiration in kick-ass-ness, seeing how the internet is FILLED TO THE BRIM with people cosplaying as one of the aforementioned characters. I guess we all like how these characters combine sex appeal with a very strong, non compromising personality… Or at least that’s how I feel about them.

ANYWHO, this whole get up is like a more wearable version of the awesome cartoon babe aesthetic if you ask me, and it reminds me of the picture that made me fall in love with Hanneli Mustaparta.
