Advice To Baby Bats

Dear Baby Bats,
     Welcome to the gothic community, I have been a goth for five years and I too went through the baby bat phase. So I've come up with a little advice to help your transition.
     To start off, take your transition slowly, it took me a while and still to this day I'm working on my style. Start off by looking into your local thrift stores, they are cheaper than gothic clothing brands and they make your look more unique! Not to mention the fact that there clothes are much more fun to DIY.
     Look into the music, do your research. Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus and The Cure are a good place to start, remember goth started from the music so it is very important that you know the basics. If you don't like all of it that's fine but the most important thing is to appreciate it.
     Makeup is amazing! You will have a blast playing around, don't worry if it's not perfect,  my makeup never is. And it takes lots of practice,  try working with your liner and lips first,  I find that those are the staples.
     Finally remember not to take anything too seriously and have fun!

Where To Buy Clothes For Plus Size Goths

     As you may already know, I am a plus size goth. My size ranges from 22 to 24. So I know the struggles that come when you are a plus size goth. Of course if you dress trendy being plus size is actually pretty easy, there are so many stores that cater to our plus size bodies. But when your a goth the stereotype is that we are all really thin. But that just isn't true. Gothic clothing brands tend to cater towards this stereotype and they make all of their sizes quite small. Do to this inconvenience I have had to find other places to shop. From all of my research and experience I am here today to help my fellow plus size goths find the clothes they want in the size they need.       Here is a little secret that you probably already know, these normal stores that I was talking about earlier, they sell clothes that we can actually wear! Of course it isn't exactly the same as "Punk Rave", but it will do. As long as you have an imagination it will take you a l...

Message To Punk Rave

My name is Jessie and I'm an 18 year old plus sized goth.  My all time favorite brand of clothing is "Punk Rave", the only problem is they don't make plus size clothing.  A very large percent of the population, somewhere around 67% is considered plus size. "Punk Rave" if you're ever reading this please understand that your sizes just do not fit the majority of the population and that if you were to expand on your sizes more people would be able to purchase your beautiful clothing. I myself love your brand and would be more than happy to purchase your clothing if you would only make them in plus sizes.  - Jessie Holloway
