Friday Finds, Gotham City Sirens Style: Catwoman Costumes

Gotham City SirensThe weather rained on my faraway fairy parade last weekend, so I scampered to the local comic book shop to take advantage of their buy 2, get 1 free sale instead. I ensnared several issues of Gotham City Sirens, a series which stars sexy femme fatales Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, and of course, Catwoman. I'm a fan of all three characters, but Catwoman was one of the first comic titles I started collecting so she's stolen a special sliver of my heart. I even made my own inexpensive Catwoman costume based on her Batman Returns incarnation for a Tim Burton-themed Halloween party two years ago.

This week I sunk my claws into an Etsy search to find what quality designs are available to women that want to channel their inner feline villain. Aren't these handmade creations purrfect?

    I just "stumbled" by from the hop, which is found on a page on my site that lists more than 200 hops, memes, and photo challenges… some for each day of the week. Check under the header for the link to that page. I’ve also just started a BlogFrog community that focuses on hops, carnivals, memes, and photo challenges. Go to http://theblogfrog.com/1504201 to visit & participate.
    I hope you’ll visit me soon. I follow back!

Giveaway: Clear Quartz Dagger Earrings by WireQueen

She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.
