Creating A Darker Alternative Fashion Wardrobe ⛓🖤🧷 Method and Lookbook PLUS 9+ DIY Projects

Is it goth? Is it punk? Is it creepy cute? Is it pastel goth? Yamikawaii? Honestly I don't know and I don't really care.

For the last year and some change I've been experimenting with some darker alternative outfits in addition to my usual pastel kawaii style. I decided that since I enjoy wearing multiple aesthetics so much, it would be a lot easier and more fun for me to break my wardrobe up into a few essential capsules that can mix and match with each other - that way I can wear whatever style I feel like wearing on any particular day. Planning actual capsules also helps me create wardrobes that actually mix and match, maximizing the number of outfits I can get out of (hopefully) fewer overall garments. I love having a big wardrobe, but it's also important to be mindful of budget and physical space constraints.

This isn't necessarily intended to be a tutorial, but rather an explanation of what I did and what works for me. However, I hope sharing my process is helpful or inspiring to anyone who may be building their own wardrobe. ^-^
