Glamourkin's Fall Update--Let's Chat!

[windinthemaples]

With last night's Glamourkin Halloween Update, it feels like fall can now officially begin. I was up at 3am scrolling through all their Hallow's Eve story pendants to find the one that called me the most. I ended up with story panel #33, the dark outline of witch and vampire as they approached the Death Tree. The words on the pendant read, "For in the tree was a door" which seemed both personal, with my frequent use of the World Tree route to the Underworld, and also whimsical with that witch's pouf sleeves and pointy hat.

I also bought three of the Trick or Treat grab bag pendants. The ones I got last year were astonishingly perfect, gorgeous, and have been worn by me year round. I'm hoping these are just as timely for me as those past messages were. :) I like trusting in the magic of that random pick, in letting the Universe pick for me.

And perfumes! Perfume! Their big surprise this year was a collaboration with rubymulligan's The Misery/Love Co. to create accompanying fragrances with the Hallow's Eve story. So at 3am, when faced with the scent descriptions and finding five different kinds of cupcake fragrance and a witch perfume and a vampire perfume and a witch's shop fragrance? It was pretty much impossible to choose. (I got full bottles of Charon's Cupcake and the Gargoyle's Cupcake and then sample vials of the other three cupcake 'flavors', Laluna, The Death Tree, and Ye Olde Potions.

What did you get? :D Did any of the jewelry seem to speak directly to you? :)

Dish in comments. :D

I had to get one of the "Laluna" perfume samples & one of the "Trick or Treat" pendants. :)

I just got the perfumes (not enough money to do more, sniff!). I purchased a large bottle of The Death Tree and vials of Laluna and Ye Old Potions. :) If I can, I'd like to get a Trick or Treat pendant, but I have to wait until payday...

The pendants are lovely and the scents sound amazing, I hope they all find the perfect homes.

You do that stay-up-all-night-for-the-glamourkin-update too? I am always afraid that if I go to bed I will miss one! I got the LaLuna, Charon's Cupcake and Angels Cupcake perfume samples, and now I wish I had gotten the larger bottles. They are SO deliciously divine! I can't wait to check out what else Misery/Love has "on the shelves"! I am so in love with Sarah's story also. I've been shopping Glamourkin like crazy this month... there never fail to be at least three or four pendants that speak to me each time, and I can not resist them. They are perfect holiday presents also. I think I've gotten twelve or more in the past couple of weeks alone.
I consider it a life affirming habit :-)

:o You got your perfumes already? I'm still haunting my mailbox for them. :D I hope I made the right decisions for me on which to get sample sized and which full bottles. (Though if I test the samples soon enough, I might still be able to 'upgrade' to the bottle size.) :)

I am a huge fan of Glamourkins. The updates feel like events to me--I love to page through all of them and to search for the ones that are calling to some part of me. I have a pretty big collection and each one of them seems to reflect some aspect of my own Truths or to challenge me to be my best possible self. I don't know how Sarah does it, but they really are remarkable pieces of spiritual art. My quality of life has gone way up now that she's in business and I have so much feel-good jewelry to deck myself out in. :)
