			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gothic fashion is just as progressive as other sub-cultural fashions. There are many facets to gothic fashion that offers different things to different people. <strong>Gothic clothing</strong> is one of the biggest aspects of the gothic culture. And it is no wonder, because <strong>gothic clothing</strong> is also one of the most prevalent and apparent features of the gothic culture. The basic principles of gothic clothing is that it is <em>morbid, dark, and sometimes even erotic</em>, but it still maintains a romantic type of beauty with it. Various gowns, cloaks, veils, stockings, corsets, and other types of clothing are often used by gothic fans to be coordinated with their gothic make-up of choice. Hair dye color is also a factor in the overall gothic look. A popular type of goth fashion is inspired from the romantic, Victorian era.</p>
<p>A traditional gothic outfit would include clothing with a basic black color, and a few vibrant, deep colored accents and compliments. <strong>Gothic clothes</strong> are usually worn with various types of accessories or apparels. A popular gothic accessory are jewelries and bags. Silver piercing are a popular gothic jewelry choice. The overall gothic outfit is really about the wearer’s own expression of creativity and beauty, there are no possible restrictions to gothic fashions except the wearer itself.</p>
<p>Outerwear is a particularly popular aspect of <strong>gothic clothing</strong>. Coats, jackets, and cloaks are a big favorite. There are many goth jackets available that are specific for men or women that you can browse through. The colors black, deep purple, blue, and red are the traditional goth colors. Coats with wide collars are particularly popular. Sometimes coats are not even worn in a practical sense, but for a purely aesthetically purpose. Still, it is important to wear what you are comfortable with, and what you like. It is no use wearing <strong>gothic clothing</strong> if you do not feel comfortable in it.</p>
<p>Veils are also a popular gothic type of clothing. Laced veils can be used to accentuate different hairstyles, and elaborate gothic make-up. It is also greatly used to be coordinated with clothes that have a lot of leather buckles and accessories.</p>
<p>One of the main principles about gothic fashion, and about the gothic culture itself, is to have free expression of creativity without submitting to the pressures or expectations of the mainstream influential media. Basically, it is about showing beauty, and your appreciation for it in whatever way you can.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Goth make-up</strong> is an integral part of gothic fashion. Many people seem to be daunted by the idea of putting on such heavy contrasting make-up, but what is great about the <em>goth culture</em> is that you can be creative and <strong>make your own goth make-up ideas</strong>.</p>
<p>However, there are a few tips in helping you find the right make-up style. First of all, it is always important to remember the basic tips in dealing with make-up. Practice is very important, it can help you get used to applying the make-up and get you accustomed to the blending or coloring techniques. Finding the right products is also essential, a great tip is to never use a new product on a particularly special occasion. Although Goths tend to congregate in rather dark places or clubs, it is best to make sure that you put your make-up in a well-lit place. A strongly lit room can help you really see the details and colors of your make-up.</p>
<p>There are various styles of <strong>goth make-up</strong> that anyone may choose from. It is a good idea to first look around and try to find the best style idea that you think is best for you. Techniques and blending is also a good topic to research. The general styles of <strong>goth make-up</strong> include a few essentials that you might want to get familiar with in order to have a basic idea of the other goth styles.</p>
<p>A <em>whiteface</em> is a traditional component of goth styles. It is used to give the illusion of a very <em>pale complexion</em>. However, it should not be put on in a way that you look like you have just put a ridiculously large amount of powder on your face. A good, even base is vital, and it is imperative that you do not overdo it. Also, in applying and blending heavy foundation, it is better to use a sponge rather than your hands.</p>
<p><strong>Goth eyeliner</strong> is also essential in goth make-up. Again, it is important not to over do it. Eyeliners should be put on in a subtle way. <strong>Liquid eyeliner</strong> is a great product to use in <strong>goth make-up</strong>.</p>
<p>In choosing <strong>goth lipsticks</strong>, you should first try out the traditional colors such as rich reds, browns, burgundy, etc. Dark blues and blacks should only be tried when you are confident in what you are doing. Goth lipsticks are generally either very subtle or contrasting. Another <strong>goth make-up</strong> staple is the hair dye. There are many different goth hair styles available, a lot of choosing the colors have to do with your own natural hair color.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(well, yes, we know &#8211; you can&#8217;t <em>became a goth </em>over night, just because you think it&#8217;s cool or you&#8217;re friends would. But it might be a good read)</p>
<p>Goth is a popular subculture that can be found in various countries all over the world. With its romantic, somewhat morbid, and mysterious appeal, it is no wonder that many people, young and old alike, are mystified by the aesthetical and creative genre it offers. Anyone who wants to be a part of the <strong>gothic style</strong> can do so in a few steps.</p>
<p>First of all, one of the most important facets of the <strong>gothic culture</strong> is the music. Therefore, you must acquaint yourself with the various types of <strong>goth music</strong>. Most of the music in this genre is somehow related to rock.</p>
<p>Secondly, you can dress with a <strong>gothic style fashion</strong>. Although this step isn’t an obligatory step to be recognized as a goth, it is also certainly a big part of the culture itself. <strong>Dressing in Gothic clothing </strong> includes Victorian, Renaissance, Deathrock, and many other types of <strong>clothing styles</strong>, which have dark and deep colors. Wearing heavy make-up is also a popular gothic feature. Still, it is important to remember that your fashion style can represent who you are, so it is vital to be comfortable in what you are wearing.</p>
<p>You can also start to research about the many aspects and histories of the overall goth culture. Informative books such as “<em>A History of Goth</em>” by Peter Scathe, can help readers understand and appreciate where the goth culture started and from where it was influenced. <strong>Poetry</strong> is also a large facet of the <strong>goth culture</strong>, great authors such as Edgar Allen Poe, Bram Stoker, Anne Rice, Mary Shelley, Melissa Marr, Lord Byron, Storm Constantine, and many others are the more popular choices of <strong>horror gothic novels</strong>.</p>
<p>Immersing yourself in the <strong>goth clothing culture</strong> can be a great step in helping you acquaint yourself with it. Going to goth clubs and socializing with the different people who appreciate the goth genre can give you information and insight from a true gothic source. Having the right attitude is also a big factor in being a goth. Insightfulness, tolerance, and being generally laid-back are the more common attitudes amongst gothic people. Others have the misconception that gothic people are always depressed or cynical, however this is simply not true. Most are actually quite kind and polite because of their laid-back persona. The most important thing in being a true goth is to be first true to yourself.</p>
<p>Being a goth is about expressing and enjoying yourself with creativity and art.</p>
