I feel that you need to become comfortable with yourself and know who you are such that you can kind of let go of the appearance thing if you're not able to wear what you want most of the time. However, I always feel so much better when I am dressed in a way that I like. Anyway, I really like your handmade hairpiece!Vulcan_Butterflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11347496680018156439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3486103715531710138.post-16660842079982944982012-10-06T12:14:27.519-07:002012-10-06T12:14:27.519-07:00I totally agree with your theory about appearance ...I totally agree with your theory about appearance and mood. Sometimes, I have to totally tone it down at job environment and simply have not a real chance to dress like "myself" until the weekend. When Friday comes and I finally drees up, I suddenly feel comfortable and happy. The most of the times I even don´t notice this during the week, but when weekend comes. It´s really sad that people can´t choose freely their appearance just for social conventions, isn´t it?Violette B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07316660449899433403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3486103715531710138.post-11784407193115939522012-10-05T12:49:15.242-07:002012-10-05T12:49:15.242-07:00I think I see where you're going.
For me, clo...I think I see where you're going.<br /><br />For me, clothing is a medium. Fashion, textiles, needle, thread, whatever is a more comfortable perspective to see it. Romantic goth just happens to reflect my tastes. I express myself through the clothing I make and purchase-- it seems so trivial, but it's no more trivial than an artist who appreciates and uses his or her medium to paint a picture of their minds eye.<br /><br />If I do have an off day, which only ever happens if I am home, it'd be exactly that to me-- a day in which I am not myself. So when I look back, it's not with an indifference of mood that I contemplate it, but rather treat it with the same meticulousness of watching a painting before continuing work on it. I don't feel like less of a person if I don't manage to dress to the nines, nor do I think that of others-- what I do see and feel are emotions, good and bad, through the choices we make in adornments. It's part of the reason I love sitting at park benches and people-watch, and the biggest part of dreaming of becoming a designer.<br /><br />I hope, as well, that all that made sense hehehMadame Mari Mortemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14092879436628518422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3486103715531710138.post-22644988121852746742012-10-05T07:29:28.844-07:002012-10-05T07:29:28.844-07:00I feel that as an alternative person, my clothing ...I feel that as an alternative person, my clothing reflects who I am more so that other people might think clothes reflect who they are. A big part of being Goth (or anything else) is looking different than "normal" people. But it doesn't necessarily have to negate everything about you if you have an off day, or a casual day, or just a "screw it I'm wearing colors" day, because that is who you are that day. I hope I'm making since.Sarah Silencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14529561459233249162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3486103715531710138.post-25249550238107197182012-10-05T06:49:40.057-07:002012-10-05T06:49:40.057-07:00I love that necklace!

I, personally, feel that my clothing represents my interests. my interests are a part of who I am, so I guess a little bit of both.:)OddGhoulOuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18418482960938732738noreply@blogger.com
