How to Dress Like a Goth (Without Looking Terrible). Top Story - November 2018.
It was only about ten or fifteen years ago that the goth scene was something to be afraid of. Back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, the gothic subculture consisted of people who stood out from society, wore dark and baggy clothing, and shopped at Hot Topic. Gothic fashion wasn’t nearly as appreciated as it is now. Today, however, gothic outfits have taken a turn and goth styles have been reinvented on the runway and in the streets. “Goth fashion” has become a statement style of dress inspired by the goth look from years past. All it takes is the proper inspiration and statement pieces to dress like a goth without looking terrible, and you can join in on the goth scene and make a statement all your own!

Color. Color. Color
For being one of the the most liberated generations, we sure are encircled in colorless surroundings (grey cars, monochrome neighborhoods, and steel cities). It saddens my soul a bit that people only feel safe expressing themselves in the virtual world but not in the real world out and about on the streets.

Want Some Fashion Tips? Well, Here They Are!
Fashion is part of your everyday lifestyle. You wear clothes going to sleep, going to work, and going out. Fashion doesn't just deal with clothes, however, they deal with appearances like hairstyles, and makeup. Fashion is the distinctive and often constant trend in the style in which people represent themselves with. Fashion is an endless popularity test. People who are rich tend to buy more designers while some buy maybe a couple, but they have a budget (I'm one of them). However, does that really show that you got a taste in clothing?

5 Things I Learned from Using Poshmark
For those who don't know what Poshmark is, it is an online marketplace where people can buy AND sell clothes.
