Goth

I've spent the last week digging through my closet, looking for some of the old clothes I wore in high school. I will say, I was a goth with purple hair for awhile. After I graduated and spent some time out in the college world, my closet and my personal style transformed into brighter pastels or geeky t-shirts. Lately, I've been yearning for my black clothes again, wanting to wear my dark lipstick, and paint my fingernails black. Even while I had worn the brighter colors, I still loved the goth and punk styles but guided myself towards clothes that were "more adult" in my mind.

I've been looking online and in thrift stores for clothes that look like what I want to wear with not much luck. The closest that I have been able to find has been the Maleficent line at Hot Topic

Who wants to pay $50+ dollars though, and unfortunately by the time I can swing that extra money around it would have gone out the doors and into other's closets. I can sew, however, so I will have to get back to designing clothes and actually going through with making them. First though, I will need to make a dress form as described in the pinterest pages I have come by. Hopefully by that time I can maybe go back to purple hair, with a 9-5 job.
