Annie's Glove Drawer: New Acquisitions

Summer is a quiet time for me usually when it comes to gloves. But the cool weather that we experience here in Quebec this year makes me feel like I'm living through a very long fall, wich is like paradise for me. And gloves, boots and furs occupy my mind constantly. As there is nothing in stores right now, I've been very active on the net to add a few great glove models to my collection. I've bought two pairs in the last two weeks and I'm going to briefly introduce them to you. You can see more photos on my flikr page at : www.flickr.com/photos/miladyannie/

I like diversity and style in my wardrobe. I can have a classic look or explore a more marginal and unusual appearance. Both those new pairs of gloves reflect that fashion perspective. I recently bought a nice leather skirt made of black and brown leather and thought it would be nice to have a great looking pair of gloves combining those two great colors that I love so much. I searched on ebay and found this seller named http://www.imakebootsngloves.com/ which happened to carry exactly what I wanted. I just waited for the right price opportunity and here they are. Split Personality, my two-tone pair of opera gloves, are my longest gloves so far. When stretched, they almost reach my shoulder. They fit tightly and feel so comfortable with their thin lycra lining. Their strong smell of brand new leather is mezmerising. Now that I have the right accessory, I must find the right clothes to fit with it. I have my skirt plus a few other ideas in mind.

You know I'm in deep love with leather clothing but I always had an interest for any other material that closely looks like it. For example, latex or vinyl. Those two types of gloves are widely used in the porno industry but we seldom see them in a more glamorous context. Punk and Gothic ladies were probably the firsts to introduce them widely into their wardrobe and I kind of liked their audacity. With that in mind, I tried to search a pair of vinyl gloves that would be long, stylish and of great quality. I've found a maker that does business on ebay, GlovesEU, and bought from him my first pair of black vinyl gloves, which I baptized Underworld Soul. I had them in my mailbox about a week later and I immediately fell in love with them upon opening the package. Thin, soft, glossy, shiny... we can almost see stars in them! Now that this door is wide open, it thrills me to know with certainty I will add more clothes of the same material in my wardrobe.
