I was curious how to go about wearing platforms on a daily basis? Because my platforms are my safety blanket and apparently they aren't always appropriate? the only time I don't wear them is when I got to work [I work on a farm, not very convenient on a farm]. Also I was wondering if the nosering chain could also be attatched to a septum ring? Thank you Sir. =]
@distortdfilthbox hoenstly working on a farm some doc martens or even demonia rangers would be a better bet than platties. ive worked on farms and platforms never work out too well XD
for not farm work though, i wear mine with black skinnies and any kind of shirt. as long as they arent like giant 10" platties with fifteen different buckles and pvc and bats then they should go with just about any kind of outfit you put together :3
I would just like to say: I LOVE your nose ring chain. I'm terrified of getting anything pierced on my own, but I love those chains~ Beautiful as ever.
On another note do you think it's possible to make a nose ring chain for unpierced ears/noses? Maybe by use of magnets or something?
I was at a local thrift store like two months ago looking for some simple leather boots and found a pair in WONDERFUL condition for ten dollars, two days later I was at the mall and found the same pair at Hot Topic for like.. 60-70 dollars, I can't remember. I was so pleased with myself.
hehe i basically dress like that i mean i just wear black clothing i had boots my mom made me get rid of them i wear black and red jelly bracelets and i have purble one too and i wear no make up ...
hot topic is overly pricy i make my own accessories too like arm bands ... i don't see why it has to be from hot topic to be gothic or cool or why people have to have all this crap on
I'm not goth (I think I did try to be back in middle school, buuut....) but I really liked this tutorial just because you are giving good advice for any type of person. Like having three big statement pieces, anyone could use that. :)
hey that's awesome! I made a birdskull necklace too :3 I'm just weird... i used to be 'goth' but now I'm kinda just me. super obsessed with skulls! I collect and paint 'em <3

Hey Kai, im like a total n00b when it comes to gothic makeup/fashion. ive only been looking into it this past year. But i seem to be having a bit of a problem. Out here in Australia, there arnt many gothic places, only scene/emo shiz. And im trying not to go in that direction but it not really working. how do i differentiate emo/scene from gothic?
also what are some good online shops to buy gothic clothing from?

Two (because I ran out of space) most of their accessories are really cheaply made. Even if they are good and gothy, they will most likely break in a few months (if that) if you wear them too frequently.
However, in the end it is really up to YOU to decide where it is okay for YOU to shop. If you like it, go for it. If you aren't sure- look around some other stores! I know Target was already mentioned (I think). I have also found some surprisingly good items at Kohls.
In my opinion, yes, as long as you're careful for two reasons- one: While some of their items can still be considered a little goth, and they do have some oookaaaay makeup and makeup brushes, and sometimes some okay jewelry and shoes, there is also a lot of 'pop culture' crap in there, and most of the few gothy items they have less that aren't accessories, with the occasional top or skirt, have moved to their online store- and you'll be lucky to find them even there.
@KoomoriOjisama of course! i buy things now and again there like clearanced pants and band t's. they honestly are too over priced most of the time so keep an eye out for their sales!!
I am going to politely disagree with one of your points.
I really like all the advice you gave :]] It was super helpful.
But I personally, really love wearing around 3-4 studded bracelets at a time.
I wear it on one arm because I love asymmetry. When I do I make sure it's the only jewelry 'll wear (minus very small other things). I think it looks rather nice.
Just saying though. :] We all have our likes/dislikes. P.S. I've had black gel bracelets on that I haven't taken off in 4 years xD !
@BetrayAtMidnight feel free!! some people can really pull that off and it looks just fine <3 and you seem to have the right idea on it so im sure you look fantastic!!!!
Concrit: When you put something in front of the camera, leave it there for a while, YT lowers quality and some things you showed I couldn't really see. Your tats and makeup really compliment you, but people who don't like said things could accesorize more. Also, finishing the vid with a whole view of your outift would've been nice. Video was good and entertaining tho!
@Palpatine280392 i knoooowww, damned webcam is screwey with the lighting.
i am actually planning on doing an outfit of the day series so that i can show what i wear and the sort. i didnt tonight because its hella hot here and i was sitting around in my boxers XD
Pff. The whole age thing reminded me of my dad. He still acts like a teenager... and he's gotta be fourty-something. Granted, he's a huge WoW nerd and chases me down if my ringtone goes off, but...
those boots, i want them. i was going to order thee skull demora boots off of sinistersoles. i usually wear a black graphic t, black jeans that have a few holes and boots
I remember when hot topic was about the music, your nose ring chain's really cool btw, i was considering doing something like that once but I didn't because I knew someone would be stupid and try and yank on it, Have you ever had to deal with something like that?
I don't want to sound like an ignorant b!tch, but doesn't it get rather warm in Ohio? We just had a huge heat wave up here in Wisconsin and I was just wondering how you do it. (Sorry if I sound super rude)
I miss the days when Hot Topic was the store you went to on a dare. Back when they had good things. Now they're just like everyone else. Even Claire's is starting to look better than Hot Topic- they got themselves a whole steampunk section where I'm from.
@hisinfernalvalo sure of course! i run an etsy shop (most of it is super cute shit be warned) but if you search candystripedcafe on etsy, you should find it. for some reason i cant post links on here so ^^; (also- if you order something, just toss in your youtube username in the notes and we will give you free shipping!)
I've been telling people about Hot Topic's smearing the name of Goth for so long, I'm glad it's finally gotten around and someone as influential as you is spreading the word. I really liked the point you had on the 3 statement pieces, couldn't have been better explained. Awesome video Jojiii~
