I'll start off.
My bad fashion secret is that I buy all my lingerie off ebay. I buy cheap chinese crap, because there's no way I'm spending 20 quid on a scrap of chiffon. This results in mishaps sometimes, as the clothes can be horribly bad, but it still works out cheaper in the end

I'm 27, and I am addicted to buying oversized nerdy t-shirts (mostly comics shit, some animu; yes, I am awful). I have amassed a sizable collection. I mostly wear them around the house, but I'll sometimes wear one out, and I feel like a terrible person. Mostly I just like having a huge "t-shirt gallery."
I usually dress like a hobo when I go out, and the second I'm back in my house, I put on pajamas/sweats. I'm really bad at "fashion." I'm sorry.
I'm unemployed right now though, and I do own clothes in which I look presentable - I just have no reason to put them on at the moment.

No. 165471
>>165468>>165469I do appreciate the look on an aesthetic level, but it usually only works in pictures, or maybe in movies - simply in artificial setting where you have tons of people who do your hair, make up, the right lightning, right poses, clothes, retouching, and make sure you always look the desired way. It takes alot of effort to look so effortlessly.
In real life I don't think many people can pull of the heroin look and don't look like actual heroin addicts, unless you look extremly attractive and know exactly what you are doing.
No. 165472
>>165469 I like it too but I agree with
>>165471 that it's kind of an artificial look. I live in an area with a large heroin problem and the people that are addicts look terrible, even though the younger ones are thin they usually have gross picked-at skin and look very dirty (not really surprising because most of them are poor as shit and blow all their money on drugs)
Maybe it's different in areas where drug users actually have money but I'm just used to seeing the borderline homeless types.
No. 165473
>>165417I'm in the same boat. I don't understand why everyone on the internet hates it so much. I do kind of a metalhead version of this.

Obviously I'm hanging with a different sorts of crowd than a lot of people, but every time I go to concerts strangers will always compliment my look. I sometimes do some variation of this with less black for every day non-metalhead activities and it still works well for me.

No. 165474
>>165471Definitely. Same goes for a lot of styles you see online or in magazines; they don't often work in reality and are only for media or events.

No. 165475
>>165469yeah, I knew you would and everyone else who likes it, too. Usually, alt types who like the soft grunge tumblr shit glamorise the signs of mental/drug/physical abuse (i.e., tumblr posts of heroin chic, drug paraphernalia, self harm, bruises, etc. running rampant). As long as you don't condone/romanticise the actual activities associated with the appearance (rather than the stylised version of the appearance itself), there's no reason to feel guilty. Plus like
>>165472 said, real addicts look nothing like editorials, obviously. Running the risk of looking like actual drug users is nigh improbable, barring the naive and sheltered concerns of the uninitiated. The most common thing people will ask is if you're okay/sleep deprived/have been crying, but that happens whether I wear it or not so that anecdata isn't controlled for properly in my experience. Just don;t dress like a school shooter in combination with the heroin

>>165543Local malls, authorities, and partially gawking tourists literally killed Harajuku culture, not weebs.
Basically, they'd tell Harajuku kids to get lost because they they were loitering and they didn't have much a place to go. They put generic stores around Harajuku, shut down unique stores like lolita fashion ones, and basically ruined the most weird and unique homegrown fashion culture in Japan.
It's kind of funny because the rest of the world still thinks Harajuku is amazing, like Nicki and Gwen Stefani. It's an easy way to see if someone has no idea what they're talking about with j-fash these days. Even the Japanese government prides it as a unique thing, but Harajuku is literally dead thanks to them. Laforet is where a lot of interesting j-fash is now.
