Based out of Canada, designer Charlotte Penny first opened her Etsy store “DIY Charlotte” in May 2014. Penny primarily works with edgy materials like leather, lace, velvet, spikes and studs. If you love all things creepy and cool, you’ve come to the right place. Her “Stay Creepy” cross stitch will definitely garner a few chuckles, but her stand out designs are nothing to laugh about.

The “Pentagram Cage Bra” features a five star design at the chest, an eye catching bralette that’s too cool to cover up. Let it peek out underneath a sheer blouse, tank or a top with a low neckline. For a more complete look, pair with an O-ring collar for even more goth-inspired goodness.

With Fifty Shades of Grey reaching paramount heights in popularity, it’s no surprise that harnesses and sexy leg garters have been hot trends these days. Go all out like Anastasia Steele with a faux leather underbust harness. This underbust harness features hand sewn studded accents and handmade black elastic to conform to your figure. Wear alone as lingerie or layer it with a street ready look for an edgy upgrade.

For a more feminine look, look towards her Flower Choker Harness for a little mix of sultry and sweet. With rows of faux flowers in pastel pink, you’ll fit right in at your next music festival. Or, opt for the cap sleeve style, featuring a small cap sleeve accent which resembles medieval armor. Go bold with a strappy spiked leg garter, featuring three layers of faux leather straps, complemented with three single studded accents. Pair with a skater skirt or a flirty babydoll dress for a look that’s retro chic and sugary sweet. It’s the best time to revamp your wardrobe favorites by mixing in leather pieces with spikes and studs. Create a look of your own by getting inspired from these goth-glam creations.
