CONSUMERISM: Pin Me Up


Inner Decay: Ecstasy of St Teresa pin - [link]  Punky Pins: Black Moon pin - [link]
Little Whip: Trois pins - [link] Wasted Effort: Mystical Pyramid pin - [link]

God knows I've been sticking patches on my jackets since I first knew what punk was, but pins? I could make my own badges. Why on earth would I go buy pins?

Turns out lots of reasons. It feels almost silly to do a shopping feature on such a tiny accessory, but they have a very charming retro vibe, and I've been noticing a lot more cute and covetable pins popping up on my radar of late. And where there's cute there's weird, and where there's weird there's all black versions for the chromatically challenged. A lot of these shops also have other great accessories, and honorable mentions go out to Inner Decay's Medusa and Wormhole patches, as well as Little Whip's very NSFW Try Me Shirt and Punky Pin's Death's Head Moth pin,which I sadly didn't have space for up there.


Are there any pins you want out there? Any other unusual accessories you like? Let me know below!

  1. Sometimes it is the tiny things that are missing on an outfit :-) And there are really cute pins to find that maybe one day will help in a 'nothing to wear' moment by upgrading a simple piece! <3 lovely selection as well!

    1. Thank you! And yeah, stubbornly minimalistic as I can be I think pins are great for adding visual interest - I really like seeing them on collars and unusual places.

  2. That would be a seriously resounding "yes" to each of these awesome pins from me as well. The Wasted Effort one in particular caught my eye.

    Have a terrific week,
    ♥ Jessica

    1. Glad you like them! I'm waiting on summer as I'll be earning by then, but stopping myself from buying them will be hard.
