A few days ago, many different types of skulls popped out at the “Cruce Multibrand Store”, in “Via Ricasoli”.
I wonder if it was something inspired by Halloween or even better by another holiday, “El Día de los Muertos” (The Day of the Dead).
Anyway, there was a common theme of skulls and flowers.
The skull theme is popular where I live as well. And, that is saying a lot because I live pretty far removed from city life. I like the skull with the flower. Nice shot.
ReplyDeleteI love these. I would love to see the store.
ReplyDeleteWould make great hockey masks.
ReplyDeleteSo Goth Loli! They would not look out of place in Tokyo's Harajuku district. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm interested in the fantastic combination of skulls and flowers.
ReplyDeleted(>_< ) Cool & Lovely！
These are very nice VP.
ReplyDeleteStrange combination, skulls and flowers!
ReplyDeleteMust have been for the Day of the Dead. I've enjoyed browsing your recent posts.
ReplyDeleteSkulls are very popular here too. And have been for awhile. Ask any teen-ager and you may get an answer. I just bought some ear-rings for Kylee with small skulls dangling and sparkling almost diamonds ifor eyes.

Flowers sweeten the deathly-ness of the skulls.
ReplyDeleteGoth Loli? Oi, I see I have a lot to catch up on.
Unless they are very late, I'd guess it's something else!
ReplyDelete@ ciel - I was late posting them, but these pictures were taken on October 31...
ReplyDeleteOoh I like the last one! So fancy ;-D
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to say. A skull in the center of an orchid... Hilda's link was an eye opener too.
ReplyDelete... Y Viva Mexico! Love the Dia de los Muertos folklore.
ReplyDeleteCool combination.
