True Vamp


Ok fine I will stand up and admit that I'm a huge True Blood fan. Its gritty, dirty, dark and far too funny what's not to love?

I have a huge crush on Erik and out of all the strong female characters I love Pam the most. She never holds back, has a razor sharp tongue and the most amazing wardrobe.

So while watching season 4, episode 2 I got so excited when saw the always impeccably dressed Pam wearing a jacket that looks exactly like the Spliced Vinyl Crop Jacket from City Chic. I knew more than ever it had to be mine!

So inspired by this fashion forward vamp I was inspired to do a little shoot of my own to do this brilliant garment justice.

Spliced Vinyl Crop Jacket - $139.95AU

I'm wearing this jacket in a size XS and I find it to be comfortable, easy to layer and very roomy under the bust. Although I'm wearing this with black and grey I think wearing any bright colour or even white underneath will make the splice pattern pop even more!

To vamp up this jacket even more so I've worn it with a black leather underbust (can't remember where I got it from sorry) and my grey Torrid pencil skirt featured in this post.

Please note in some of the shots I've posed to cinch in the bottom of the jacket to make more of an hour glass effect. The jacket itself is not a tight fit at the bottom.

Notice the drool worthy cuff on my wrist? I've mentioned GMK in a previous post but now I own one of their completely unique hand made accessories I can honestly say they make the most accessories on the planet!

This piece priced at $280AU is pretty much my in cuff form. From the skull, spikes and studs to the deep red colour, glitter and hand painted zebra strips it is so very perfect!

There are so many different styles available on GMK's webstore with more Bow Cuffs, Leather Belts, Leather Bracelet Cuffs, Leather Chain Gloves, Leather Key Rings and Belt Buckles.

When you buy anything from GMK you can have faith that all your items are unique, hand made and proudly made in Australia!

  1. Gorgeous as always. And such a great demonstration of how plus size girls can take something they see on the screen and make it work for them. Well any girl really. But specifically plus girls.

  6. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Pam is my favourite character in the books and the show & Kristen is so amazing in real life!

    Funny thing, I don't get 'star struck' anymore. After working in the convention industry for just over 2 years now, I've met a lot of 'famous' people. But I was nervous meeting Kristen because I love her character so much! My friends had a great time making fun of me over that!!
