Friend wants to have demonia style boots but doesn't have the money or availability. Alt and goth fashion used to be diy and cheap. How could she do this now? Please share for reach and community knowledge in general cause the monetization of alt fashion is horrible
(Australian if that matters but all info will help honestly)

It's that time of year when all the budget-conscious goth babes (and all alternative honeys) are out, restocking on clothing, accessories, make-up and decor items, for a fraction of the price.
It's not our fault 🙃
Those are usually too expensive or impossible to find, during the rest of the year.

Oh and, like previously mentioned:
Fuck capitalism!
But don't feel guilty to treat yourself occasionally, if it gives you the tiniest amount of joy, during these harsh times*.
Just make sure to: ⚠ Be mindful with your purchases - just like you should be with anything and everything else; ⚠ Take good care of them, so they last longer; ⚠ Don't throw away - try to upcycle/modify/repatch/sew or fix it, first! ⚠ And sell or donate whatever you are not using anymore. Tip: If you're considering making a donation, it's often best to contribute locally, such as at your church, the local fire station, or a nearby charity. It's more impactful than donating to large international organizations, where contributions may not be used as intended and everything ends up in a landfill.
*This also applies to food because "money spent on food and clothing is always money well spent" - just like my grandpa used to say.
Again, just make sure to be thoughtful, always prioritize sustainability, and when it comes to food - eat whatever, whenever you want/can. Just be aware and don't make it a rule and always try to find healthy and cheaper food alternatives.

Something simpler this time; a cropped leather vest in the style of a denim jacket. I got it from me mum who got it from a cousin, no idea why, for the raw material, but ended up just wearing it. I had to enlarge the arm holes by a lot and cut off the collar completely before it was actually comfortable. There are no pockets, functional or otherwise, and the flaps in the front, as well as the back panel, are made out of some velvetesque fabric, which certainly adds character and some depth to the rather blank and flat leather.
Not much work has been done on it, apart from the aforementioned cutting, but there is something. The Opeth symbol above the left breast was once a whole iron-on patch I'd bought somewhere, and the back piece needed to be divided into two for the sake of making it larger without upsizing the paper itself. The part that makes me the proudest of myself has to be the ~maroon~ triangles as they were my second go at painting on leather at such a scale and my first success.
Not sure what else to do with it, but I'm open to suggestions.

ID (also in Alt Text): photo of Mothie standing in front of the body mirror of a public bathroom with their cane. they are wearing an all glasses, a medical mask and am all black outfit consisting of a plain black turtleneck sweater, long pleated skirt, and tall leather boots. they are wearing a bondage belt with heavy metal rings at their waist and a choker with lots of rings and little teeth charms.
I really said. What if I jingle jangled today??

One of my strangest pieces, to be certain: a blazer/coat I found thrifting in my hometown. Well-fitting, even with a thick sweater underneath, looks decent with almost anything that isn't sweatpants, or cargos, and above all is perfect for the local weather a huge chunk of the year. Generally really adaptable to any need, all it truly lacks is more patches.
All designs, except for 1312, Calloused, and Pup on the shoulder came from Anarchostensilism's deviantart.
