Pirate & Wrench Fishnet Tights
Dressing up as a pirate or a wrench is a classic Halloween idea, but you can easily incorporate gothic accessories and gothic jewelry into this look to give yourself a bit more edge! Consider our sexy high net stockings, for instance. Pair with a short skirt, a hoist for your gun and sword, and of course, a long black jacket for those cold nights at sea.
