NEW LA CARMINA CLOTHING LINE WEBSITE! LOOKBOOK FOR JAPANESE GOTH T-SHIRTS & HOODIES, COLLABORATION WITH AKUMU INK.
Dreaming up a creative project and making it come to life… is there anything more fulfilling? The cherry on top: working with a tireless and ultra-talented collaborator, Akumu Ink. Here are the fruits of our labor (and play!). Introducing my new La Carmina x Akumu Ink fashion website, coded by yours truly. All of the t-shirts and hoodies are available now for you to order!
† BLACK LA CARMINA + BASIL PORTRAIT T-SHIRT †
Featuring your Harajuku-Goth fashion blogger/author and her Scottish Fold cat, Basil Farrow. His worried expression, heart-shaped nose and jutting fang are too cute for words! Gothic details include a skull/cake hat, eye stickers and a key necklace. Each is hand-screened in white ink on a black background. Optional La Carmina x Akumu Ink print on the back.
BUY MENS (S-XXXL), $21.99

For the girls, we have a lovely cranberry red. Each is hand-screened in white ink on a red background. Optional La Carmina x Akumu Ink print on the back.
BUY WOMENS (S-XXL), $21.99
My personal favorite: a purple V-neck that goes great with a black feathered boa. Each is hand-screened in white ink on a purple background. Optional La Carmina x Akumu Ink print on the back.
BUY MENS UNISEX (XXS-XL), $23.99
BUY WOMENS UNISEX (XXS-XL), $23.99

BUY MENS (S-XXXL), $21.99
I can’t take off this hoodie — it’s so unbelievably comfortable and warm. Even Basil Farrow loves to sit on it! Each is hand-screened in white ink on a black background. Silver razorblade Akumu Ink logo on the chest.

I’m so happy with the prints; they’re of the topmost quality — you won’t be disappointed! We’ve got a range of sizes and colors, and kept prices low. Please do support indie clothing company Akumu Ink — their range of J-horror/Goth/Steampunk shirts is outstanding, and we hope to keep putting out new designs for you.
So please take a moment to check out the new La Carmina x Akumu Ink clothing line website. If you have any questions or want to carry the clothes in your store, send me a line. (Tomorrow, I’ll spotlight our Alice in Wonderland print.)
PS: Thanks for the band name suggestions! Keep them coming, you’re a devilishly creative bunch!

All Women Stalker says:Lovely shirts you have there. I really want the hoodies. Once I save up some money, I will definitely buy a hoodie. It would be quite useful for my night shift job which is in an freakin' cold room.
