Okay, so I’ve been wanting to try out the fashion gothic style for a while now. I just think it looks so cool and different. So today, I finally decided to go for it!
Getting Started
First, I dug through my closet to see what I already had. I found a few black pieces, like a black skirt and a black top, but nothing that really screamed “gothic.”
So, I went online to get some ideas. I looked at pictures of different gothic outfits. A lot of them seemed pretty intense, with like, corsets and big boots. I wasn’t ready for all that, so I decided to go for a simpler, more casual gothic look.
The Shopping Trip
Next, I hit up a few stores. I checked out some thrift shops, hoping to find some unique pieces. I didn’t find much there, unfortunately. So I went to a regular clothing store and looked for anything dark and a bit edgy.
- I picked up a black, flowy dress with some lace details.
- I also found a pair of black, chunky-soled boots that I thought would work.
- And I grabbed a dark red lipstick to add a little bit of color.
Putting It All Together
Back home, I tried on the dress and boots. It looked pretty good, but it still needed something. I added a black choker necklace that I already had. Then I put on the dark red lipstick.
I looked at myself in the mirror, and…I liked it! It wasn’t super over-the-top, but it definitely had that gothic vibe I was going for.
I ended up wearing the outfit to hang out with some friends, and they thought it looked great. So, I’m pretty happy with how my first try at fashion gothic style turned out!
I might even try to make it a little more daring next time.
