Swap Fashion tips DIY etc.
 

I'm just looking round for people who want to swap tips and stuff on what they wear. Ya know if you see some other goth at your school and you love what they wear, but you dont want to copy them? Or you just want to be different but you dont know how. Well, we could swap tips and then at school, we would look totally different. DIY tips are really good, and make you look totally individual. So, what dya think?

I have many ideas that I can share on what I wear so get replying :)

I love finding those items that are the last ones there and the best thing in the store, then i go home and add my personal touch (writing a quote, patches, holes, etc)

Anything vintage and of a drak color, liek black or crimson. I like to keep it simple....well, as simple as I can get it.

Yeah, I buy the plain stuff and paint stencils all over it and add ribbons and chains. You just use your imagination really and you don't have to stick to black, I don't, if you wear something bright pink with some of your other darker clothes you can look like some sort of evil doll.

I raid a costume, then a toy shop, then some fashion stall.

Cut them all up

Stick them all together.

And walk out on the street.

That's all I do with my clothes.

Hot shit. I just have to wear hooker boots, and I get "how was work" from the guys. And my response being "Well, I missed you last night sweetie"

Otherwise, buy, make and modify is my motto.

Hooker boots are fun!

i know i have 2 pairs.

I also have these.

Enjoy da Hooker boots!

I have something very similar but they have zippers up the sides :(

Zippers are sexy...but not as sexy as you :D

Me + zippers = sexy as hell

Thank you sweetheart!

Is that what they're called? I bought a pair off ebay, but they don't have the heels.

Replaced the laces with purple grosgrain ribbon, and they look prettty good.

Awesome boots! As for DIY, I'm a big fan. One tip, it is amazing what can be done with the nail polish you already have. the standard black obviously, but blue, blood red, green, yellow, purple etc can give some cool effects. You can sreak them down a pair of jeans, or do little spikey designs on the cuffs and on the waist. Metallics are great. Another thing, with specially placed tears, if you stitch around them with the same color thread a couple times, they are less likely to get bigger at embarrassing times! :)

P.S., if you are into flames you can use the red, orange and yellow and smear them into each other for some cool effects, you just have to be quick before it dries.

DIY is so much fun. So many different things that can be made. The most recent thing i made was this trench coat type thing. When i went to the thrift store i found a long black poncho type thing with a hood. I saw potential in it so of course i bot it. When i got home i layed a shirt over it. Drew out the sleeves and cut along the line. Sowed it up and down the sides where it was open. Then i added a zipper onto it. Voila! A new coat.

Would a white tee shirt with graphics from the manga series DEATHNOTE be considered goth?

Ah, The Ryuuk shirt from Hot topic? My mom got me that for christmas...

I think it would be. Or at least, it shows that you like the show!

That's the one! I just started reading the series and I'm enjoying it And I like the shirt.

Another question: Which is more fashionable for goths, tucking your shirt in or leaving it out? Or is it just a matter of personal taste?

eh, I can't really think of anyone that tucks it in, but I'm sure there are some. It's really personal perefrence, but do what you like.
