My Two Favorite Seer Subtypes

I love Siren!! It seemed to call to me as soon as I saw it. And I love to sing!

When I was younger, I sang in the school chorus, took voice lessons & was sure I'd be the next great nightclub singer. Instead, I went to college and became a therapist, but I still love to sing. :)

When you choose a type (like Seer), you get to play with all of its subtypes, and Siren inspired quite a few wrap tops with ruching! The theme of the Siren wardrobe is the waves of the sea.

So this subtype is a fun one to play with, but there is one that I love even more. It is very hygge in its style...

Banshee feels even more like home to me! Even in a spiritual sense, its connection to Irish faeries and the Tuatha de Danaan speaks to me.

"The Irish Banshee is a solitary fairy who is thought to be much larger than the Hawthorne tree loving fairies of the Irish backyard. The Banshee is a lonely Sidhe and in Irish lore believes that she has one particular human family that each is attached to. Her wails foretell of death in that family, but it is not your family Sidhe that is coming for you; she is simply mourning the passing of your family member with you." ~ Irish Faeries

And what the Banshee wears is so cozy!!

I just participated recently in a ten-day Fantastical Beauty challenge. Here is her blog post describing this autumn challenge (her plan is one each season, she's said).

I chose the Banshee subtype as my type for the ten days, so if you want to see more possibilities for this Seer subtype, just click on the category "#klm10" or "banshee subtype" on the right side of this blog.

And check out my collage below. Also, if you haven't listened to the video yet, you can here her description there.

What do you think? Was there a subtype you like more than the others? Or another one she mentioned in the video that calls to you?

See you next time!

So, are we modeling our look or highlighting our MAC?

Roy, you write the most interesting comments! I was, indeed, modeling my look. :) I have chosen the Banshee style subtype, and those were my guesses about what Banshee outfits might look like.

You look great in all of the Jeanine but my favorite is the top row, all the way to the right. The scarf really finishes the outfit!

Jeanine, #3 and #8 are especially flattering on you. I love the collage! I love both the Siren and Banshee sample outfits, except that the Siren's musical earrings wouldn't be for me. With only one day to go, I don't know that I'll find my style in this system. Oh well, it's fun!

Well, and tomorrow is going to be a summary, really. But it's okay not to know your type yet. It has taken me well over a year to choose one. Thanks for your feedback on the pics, especially the 3rd one. I love dusters, but they are tricky! Thanks so much for all your fun & lovely comments. It has been great to have your company this month.
