Places to Shop
	Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab "specializes in formulating body and household blends with a dark, romantic Gothic tone".  With scents named Penny Dreadful, Poisoned Apple, and The Coiled Serpent, and an entire section devoted to capturing the essence of Neil Gaiman's books in perfume form, this site is perfect for those who want something a little dark adorning their pulse points.
	Amphigory - Not your mom's make-up. Well, unless your mom was into Manic Panic. Check out their lipstick section for rich blues, greens, purples, and blacks mixed in with pretty pinks and browns.
	Mac: Home to some of my favorite lipsticks. This site also has great how-to tutorials on everything from how to put on false lashes to lining your eyes like a master.
	The mother of all beauty sites. Sephora carries just about every major product line, and has free shipping for orders over $50 (US only).
	Started by a woman looking for the perfect shade of purple in a sea of pink polishes, Urban Decay is still one of the best places to find edgy shades. Check out their eye section for metallics, iridescents, and glitter... lots of glitter.
	If you're into the Bohemian style - clothing, accessories, or housewares - take a gander at Anthropologie.com. I could spend hours (and a lot of money) in one of those stores.
	Have a person in your life who's nearly impossible to shop for? Check out Elsewares for everything from bowels made from vintage vinyl records to wristcuffs made from baseballs.
