[OLD] How to express yourself and be more authentic! :3



Haiii everyone!!! I haven't posted in a FOREVER!!!!!! I am so sorry xC Ive been doing stuff!!!! But here's a post <3

 A couple months ago I did my big tests!!! I don't think I flunked the entirety of it, but I still sucked at math... (spoiler I got average scores....) I have another coming up this month before school ends!!! WOO SUMMER BREAK IS SOON!!!

Anyways! I remember that day, and I noticed I was the only one wearing much color at all O_o Everyone else was wearing a lot of black and white! No color at all for the most part :C!!!! It seemed so unnatural, the way everyone was wearing the same thing basically...

And I stuck out like a sore thumb, with my blue sweater and purple jeans. Plus my rainbow socks and shoes... It wasn't the most stealthy outfit for not wanting to be bothered by jerks at school x_x but I wore it anyways because it made me happy!

So today's post is...A POST ABOUT FASHION AND HOW TO BE UR MOST AUTHENTIC SELF THROUGH YOUR APPEARANCE!!! xD


1. Dress how you want!

The mOOSSTTT!!! Important!!!! Thing!!!! Is to simply dress how you want. That means: don't worry about others opinions about you, and don't wear things that make you uncomfortable! Simple as that! 
Maybe finding a style/fashion/subculture you like first can help! (Specially if you were like me at age 12, I just wore what i was told to...)  My personal fav subculture/fashion styles are early 2000s trends! I love anything 2000s, so its not a surprise I love to dress that way too xD I really like Emo, Scene, and 2000s J-fashion! A LOT! But yours can be simply anything you'd like! There's tons out there, and you might even create your own fashion style :D!!! Be creative with it, and don't care what others think ^_^! 

2.  Finding a subculture/fashion style you like!

I for sure didn't have a easy time finding ones I like X_x I liked so many and it was hard to choose which made me feel most authentic. At the end of it I just wear whatever!!!! Im not tied down to one simple aesthetic or subculture. Thats frankly BORING! So I wear all kinds. But here's a list of my personal favs!
  • J-fashion (harajuku fashions!!!!! I love menhera and Gyaru!)
  • Scene and Emo
  • Punk and Goth
  • cottagecore and fairycore fashion!
  • weirdcore fashion!
  • kidcore and rainbowcore fashion!
  • annnnnd much more....
And I don't dress in each strictly, I like to mix and match a lot! Although I do not wear much cottagecore-esk stuff anymore, its still one of my favorites! Personally I just wear whatever makes me feel comfortable! So if that's Scenekid fashion some days, so be it! And if I wanna dress more J-fashion, then sure that too ^_^ Its all about what you find most comfy! And dont be afraid to draw out of the lines! Its super fun to make up your own shit, and just go with a mess of an outfit xD!!!

3. Makeeeeuppppp!

Makeup is BY FAR the best way to express yourself. (in my opinion) Just draw on your face with some and BOOm. Youre set! And don't worry about if it looks bad, messy makeup does NOT equal bad makeup. heck I still dont know how to do eyeliner....So I just wing it and say fuck it if I mess up xDD 
I love to put all kinds of colors on my face with eyeshadow and blush :D Its no different than me drawing on a day-to-day basis! Just on mai face xD 

Also!!!!!!!! There is tons of "makeup styles" out there! Even specific ones for your favorite subcultures/fashion styles! EX. Gyaru has big eyeliner and tan skin! They use a lot of glam and glitter in their makeup! (usually lol)
Take inspo from styles and go with it!!! Try em out and see what you like, or what is most comfortable! If makeup isnt your thing, thats okay too!!! <3 Just know that you are already perfect without makeup!!! Societal beauty-norms DO NOT MATTER! Just wear what ya want, and do whatever!!! You LITERALLY only live once in this lifetime, so why spend that time worrying about what some Karen thinks?? Youre seriously too ROYAL for that kind of shit u_u Just do what you want and try to be your most authentic self!!!

4.  Accessorieeeess!!! The last one ^U^

I literally cannot explain to you how good accessorising is!! I love to make myself jewelry and DIY hair pins! Its a really great way to spice up an outfit! Jewelry, hair accessories, fake tattoos, bags, glitter, etc!  I love to accessorize my shoes a lot, with pony beads and paper wings! (I made paper wings with holes so my shoes could have wings!) Not only that but you can literally do ANYTHING! Wanna DIY some swaggy sunglasses? HELL YEAH! Making kandi bracelets with glitter beads? YEAH!!!!! Wanna glam your tiny purse with gems and glitter? DUDE IF YOU DO I WANT IT SO BAD XD The point is to be as authentic as possible, so again, like Ive been saying this entire time....

Just wear and do what you want! 


This is the end of the post! So thank you for reading and please be your most authentic self <3 FOR YOURSELF!!!
