Masque



 


 




Sometimes you can only show your true self behind a masque. The facade, outlandish, becomes the siren of secrets, your inner world, your sigil. Stripped of the plain-jane mundane, the mask can expose your brilliant self, the fearless one who knows no boundaries. Who are you underneath your costume of the day-to-day?

What I Wore:
Carnival Cat Mask
Vintage Chiffon Red Scarf
Vintage 1960's Cheetah Print  Coat, "Safari Sportstown La France"
Target label Grey/Black striped Cardigan, Thrifted
Chevron Striped Target Thankoon label T-shirt
Vintage Sequin Top, worn as vest, Courtesy of EQUINE-BOVINE
Vintage Broach, Thrifted

I've always found maska very intriguing.. The whole disguising of one's personality. I've always thought a masked ball must be so much fun too attend!

Thank you for the very lovely comment.
