Skulls and Hearts - Gothic Valentine and Halloween

Gothic Skulls and Hearts - Very Trendy! 

I used to have a little white skeleton dangling from a key-ring when I was a teenager, in the 1950s. I loved that skeleton, and even had a name for him - Skelly. I took him everywhere.

Of course, although I didn't know it at the time, that was the precursor of Gothic style as we know it today. People thought I was ghoulish or just plain weird, a little girl carrying round horrid things like that. Not that I cared - I always liked to be different, and still do. I would be a bit sad if people thought of me as ordinary, or normal - not that I make a point nowadays of standing out in a crowd, but I don't necessarily conform to what other people think I should be, and prefer to choose what I think I should be.

 I'm going to show you a great selection of Gothic style here - including Posters, Jewelry, Crafts, Artwork, videos and even some footed pajamas (onesies) all featuring skulls and/or hearts. There are also lots of Ghoulish pictures to keep your attention

Skulls are trendy this season. When they are connected with romantic hearts, you have weird, somewhat tongue-in-cheek symbolism, of the loving-you-to-death or loving-for-eternity genre.

What do you think of the Gothic Hearts and Skulls fashion trend? - Does it show disrespect for the dead? Is it an abuse of symbolism?
