emo fashion tips

voor alle wannabe emo-kids:

I put this up as a chance to laugh at some of the sillier stuff emokids do in order to not look like all the Green Day/Rancid and Strife/Hatebreed clones out there.



Some pointers about emo fashions (above simple, universal hardcore attire)

the Emo Romulan look - short, thick, greasy, dyed-black hair with bangs cut straight across the forehead, and cut high over the ears. Someone from Time In Malta recently described to me the San Diego Crimson Curse scene as "Spock Rock."

actually, any greasy dyed black hair. Bangs in front and spikes in back is very emo too.

horn-rim glasses, or at least thick black frames.
bald head, furry face (boys only). Goes especially well with horn-rims.

heavy slacks, often too tight and short.

thin, too-small polyester button-ups in dark colors, or threadbare children's size t-shirts with random slogans. Button the collar if you got one.

clunky black shoes

scarves

gas station jackets. This has diffused a lot over the years though, it's no longer exclusive to emo kids. Nowadays, you may want to select a nice corduroy denim jacket.

also classic outerwear but quickly diffusing to normality: the famous Blue Peacoat

barrettes on boys

make-up (male or female)

too-small cardigans and v-neck sweaters

argyle

anorexic thinness. Veganism helps here.
