There's more to being emo than just fashion, but clothing can help you express your unique personality and musical interests while giving you a sense of style. The great thing about the emo outfit is that you can change it however you want. You can achieve the look you want by simply adding a few accessories, or you can go all the way from dyeing your hair and revamping your wardrobe. This article will help you add an emo vibe to any outfit, just read on to find out more!

Steps

Accessories like emo

    Layer your jewelry. Layering necklaces, ribbons and bracelets is a great way to give a simple outfit an emo twist. You should aim to wear at least three different necklaces and wear as many bands and bracelets on your wrists as will fit. Experiment with different styles and colors for a truly electric feel.

    Wear spiked belts. Studded belts are a staple in any emo wardrobe as they add an edge to every outfit. Switch to black, white or neon ribbons with metallic spikes. The belts must be especially thin. This way, the belt slot on your pants can fit two or three skinny belts and give your look a fun layered look.

    • Please note that these belts should not be used to hold the pants at the waist, this is more of a fashion statement.
  1. Attach pins to your jackets and backpacks. The pins are cheap and in a simple way add interest to your style as well as express your personality. You can use any type of pin you can imagine: favorite band names, brand logos, funny (and offensive) slogans, and exclusive artwork. The great thing about this is that you can easily transfer them from one piece of clothing to another, instantly adding an emo twist to your style.

    • The best places for pins are on jacket lapels, shirt pockets, thin striped ties, brims of beanies, fedoras, and pockets and straps of backpacks.
    • Another fun thing you can do with pins is swap them with friends, so your collection will constantly change and grow.
  2. Paint your nails black or neon. If you want, you can add decoration to your nails. You should do this on Friday so you don't scare people at school with your nails on Monday morning. If you want, you can add a pop of color by choosing bright neon shades such as green or pink. It won't harm your emo style - we promise! Black color is recommended. But some emos may also paint their nails red or pink if they don't have black polish. Some emo pop groups such as Panic! At The Disco, made black polish a style icon.

    • Nails are usually cut (or bitten off!) short because long nails suit a goth more than an emo.
    • Don't worry about painting on your toenails. Emos never wear sandals or reveal their feet.
  3. Wear headphones at all times. No self-respecting person who loves emo music will go out in public without headphones. This should be part of your morning dressing routine. Place your player or other music device in your jeans pocket, slide the headphones under your T-shirt or sweatshirt and pull them out near your neck. This way, your headphones will remain beautiful and secure all day long, without the risk of getting lost or broken. Try listening to emo music: Silverstein, Braid, Texas is the Reason, Senses Fail, Bright Eyes and Saetia.

    Consider facial piercings. Facial piercings are very emo and no one can doubt your commitment with a look when you have a piece of metal on your face to prove it. Lip piercings are very popular - you can get one in the center of the lip, on either side, or one on both sides. Eyebrow piercings and nose rings are also cool. If you're looking for something a little less noticeable, consider a tongue piercing, or add a few holes to your ears.

  4. Wear black thick frames. You can use glasses to express your emo style. You can simply go for big glasses with thick frames that look good on your face. Anyone can apply this to themselves, but not those who have poor eyesight. It’s just that in such a frame you will need to insert lenses suitable for your vision, and not ordinary glass.

    • Be aware that you run the risk of problems when wearing glasses, even if you have perfect 20/20 vision.
    • Another option is to wear cat-eye glasses (especially for girls) and large round or heart-shaped glasses. Even indoors. Hey, you're an artist, right?
  5. Carry an instrument bag or a book of poetry with you. As an emo, you are always in touch with your feelings and have a passion for creativity that allows you to express those feelings. Most likely, you are already playing on musical instrument(guitar is the most common choice) or keep a laptop filled with scribbled song lyrics, snippets of poetry and elements of dark, twisted art.

    • If this is so, then why not convey your thoughts to the world? You will show your emo credentials to the world, plus you will have necessary materials and the tools are at hand whenever the muse strikes!
    • You can also decorate the bodies of any devices and laptops with stickers or group graffiti, helping them look stylish. Give your friends markers and let them go to town who knows what they'll come up with?
  6. Wear t-shirts of various emo bands and make some of your own, such as bands like Hawthorne Heights and Jawbox.

    Perfecting Emo Hair and Makeup

    1. Create choppy bangs. Emo hairstyle is the most important part of perfecting your emo image. In fact, if you have the right hairstyle, you can wear anything and it will still look emo. The number one priority when it comes to emo hair is choppy bangs that hang down the face and cover one eye. For both boys and girls, bangs should be long, meeting at the ear.

      • You can, of course, cut your bangs yourself or ask a friend, but for best results you should go to a hairdresser who can do it right. Try to find some photos online that you can bring to the hair salon as a model.
      • Once you get the bangs you want, you should practice brushing your hair back for a minute or two before they snap back into place. It's very emo.
    2. Dye your hair black or platinum white. Another significant feature of emo hairstyles is the color. Obviously, dying your hair is a little more extreme than just cutting it, but if you really want to look cool, it's a step you should be willing to take. Burnt black is probably the most popular option for guys and girls, but platinum blonde will look cool too.

      • You can switch your look to different colored sidelocks on your choppy bangs. For example, many emos dye their hair black, but also have white stripes running through the entire length of their hair. Alternatively, you can completely change the look and wear blonde hair with streaks of black.
      • You can also add a series of bright colors for an especially fun look. Red, pink, green, blue and purple will work well with black or platinum hair. If you don't want to go as far as dyeing your hair neon shades, you can buy clip-on sidelocks that can help you achieve the same effect.
      • Like trimming bangs, these types of coloring can be difficult to do at home, so you're probably better off going to a hair salon to have it done professionally.
    3. Wear your hair straight. Straight hair works best for an emo look, so make sure you have decent hair straighteners on hand if your hair is naturally curly or kinky. Straightening can be a headache, and you'll probably have to get up half an hour earlier in the morning to do it, but the results will be worth it!

      • Make sure to use a heat protection spray when straightening your hair, as heat can cause your hair to dry out, especially if you already have it colored or bleached.
      • Another thing you can do is to use a hair curler for your bangs, which will also give your hair the desired effect.
    4. Comb your hair. Once the color, cut and straightness of your hair has been achieved, the next thing to do is to style it. Of course, choppy bangs can be left alone forever by brushing them forward onto the face. The back of the hair, on the other hand, can be styled freely.

      • If your hair is short at the back, use hair gel or wax to style it up into a mohawk.
      • If you have long hair, try backcombing your hair (for girls) to create a messy, voluminous look as if you never brushed it.
    5. Apply a foundation one or two shades lighter than your natural skin tone to your face. While emos don't strive to be white-faced like their goth counterparts, being pale is still a requirement. You should look like you spend all your time indoors, at least during the day. If you look like this in normal life, that's great! If not, try applying a powder to your face that is a shade or two lighter than your natural skin tone. It's cool to be tanned.

      • Apply foundation every day using a sponge or powder brush.
      • You can buy special white face powder in stores as a "hot" deal especially for goths, punks or emo. However, any branded foundation that produces lighter shades will do the trick.
    6. Switch to heavy eyeliner. No self-respecting emo would be caught without black eyeliner, so learn how to apply it properly. Liquid eyeliner can be very difficult to master (although it can be used to create very precise lines), so it's probably best to start with a pencil. You should apply the pencil around the eyes: through the eyelids, on the inner sides and under the lower lashes. Don't worry about precision, smudged eyeliner will look good too.

      • Eyeliners should be mostly jet black, but you can mix them up with colors like purple, blue or green from time to time.
      • Applying pink or red to your inner eyelids can make it look like you've been crying (for those who want to experiment).
      • While eyeliners are considered staples in the emo look, you can take it a step further by adding some smoky black or gray eyeshadow and a coat or two of black mascara.

    Emo clothes

    1. Always wear band t-shirts. These t-shirts should be number one in your wardrobe. You must have them more than anything else. After all, being emo is about showing support for the groups you care about. T-shirts you buy at a band concert are best, but t-shirts bought in stores or online are fine too. They should be as unusual as possible, girls can tie the ends in a knot and show a little skin in the cut at the back.

      • Some classic emo bands whose t-shirts would be a cool addition to your wardrobe and give you support for fellow emo guys (assuming you actually listen to the music) are: The Promise Ring, The Get Up Kids, Sunny Day Real Estate, Texas is the Reason, Rites of Spring, Braid, Alkaline Trio, Thursday and Cursive.
    2. Invest in a few pairs of skinny jeans. Skinny jeans are essential to complete the emo look. If you are thin, wear skinny jeans. However, skinny jeans are a source of ridicule when guys wear them. Who cares whether they look good or not? Ignore the haters and wear your skinny jeans with pride! Choose black or blue ones, and if they have a few rips and holes in them, that's even better. While skinny jeans (that fit snugly to the ankles) are probably the most common, straight-leg jeans can also look good.

      • Even if you want your jeans to be skinny, they should still fit you. Jeans that are too tight will be uncomfortable and hot, and you won't enjoy wearing them. Plus, jeans that fit you will look better.
      • Girls can replace skinny jeans with skirts and tights if they like. Skirts are usually short and black, although sometimes the tutu style also looks good, and tights can be either plain black, colored, or patterned. Feel free to experiment!
      • Wear army jackets or black sweatshirts. Even emos can catch a cold, so when you need outerwear, opt for beat-up army jackets and black band hoodies. They look great over band tees and can be worn over any outfit.

        • Authentic combat green army jackets can be found in thrift stores or online stores, and look great with pins and metallic accents.
        • A black band sweatshirt will provide another opportunity to express your love for a specific band. If you prefer to look thoughtful, wear a hoodie.
    • Be creative with your style. The more unique you are, the less stereotypical you look. Uniqueness is the exact opposite of being a problem.
    • Draw on things! Buy sharpies, fabric paint or pens and write messages or draw on T-shirts or even old Converse. Make anything: hearts, skulls, stars, even inscriptions about yourself. You could even write all your favorite bands and songs, or have all your friends write something. Do it without any system and colorfully as you want. Write the names of your favorite bands, the lyrics of their songs, or even splatter paint on a T-shirt. Use stencils and make it fun!
    • Don't try too hard, or someone might mistake you for a goth, or worst of all, you'll just stop being yourself.
    • Create your own chat on your website to be even more unique.

City streets are full of representatives of various youth subcultures. Once upon a time it was hippies and punks, but now it’s goths and emo. In this article we want to discuss how emo people dress, what features and characteristics are inherent in them. Perhaps, after reading the information about this, you will be able to discover new features in the style or learn something new about emo.

The name of the youth subculture emo comes from the English word emotional, which can be described as “emotional.” Emo emerged as a musical movement in the 1980s. It all started when in 1984 the music group “Rites of Spring” began experimenting with the hardcore style. As a result, a new fashionable musical direction emerged, which was characterized by a sharp vocal transition from melodic singing to loud screaming. The music evoked various experiences, emotions boiled over while listening to the songs. This music was called emocore, and then the name was shortened to emo. Teenagers quickly became interested in hardcore and gradually began to adopt the features of this style. The experiences that boys and girls experienced while listening to songs “came out” in the form of clothes, actions and spilling emotions.

According to some data, emos are prone to a gloomy depressive state. According to experts, emo is the subculture that is more prone to suicide than others. Others deny the presence of constant tension in the bodies and minds of emo people and, on the contrary, consider their mood to be positive. If we return to the definition of emo, we can safely state that emos experience various emotional states - fear, love, hatred, joy, etc.

Emo teenagers stand out from the crowd, and you can recognize them by the following signs:

  • Having long bangs, from under which half of the face is not visible
  • The presence of strands of contrasting color(for example, blondes dye their locks dark, and brunettes dye their locks pink, blue, etc.)
  • Piercing on various parts of the face. Girls and boys can decorate their lips, eyebrows, nose with piercings
  • Bright accent on the eyes. Both boys and girls line their eyes with black and apply generous amounts of mascara to their eyes
  • The presence of black and pink colors in clothes, as well as pink, yellow, blue. Black or other dark colors are perceived as a negative state - depression, sadness, while light and bright colors are perceived as happiness, joy and other positive emotions
  • Accessories. Badges, bracelets, wristbands, amulets, beads with broken hearts
  • Fitted silhouettes. Emos prefer tight jeans and tight T-shirts
  • "Doll Outfits". Emo girls just love fluffy dresses
  • Children's elastic bands and hairpins
  • The presence of bows, ruffles, lace in the decoration of outfits, as well as skulls and bones as prints on clothes or in the form of decorations
  • Plain clothes and clothes with prints and patterns(broken hearts, skulls, guns, cartoon characters)
  • Shoes with bright laces
  • Multi-layering.

Emo clothing expresses emotions. We can say that emo people dress according to their mood, and they wear the following things:

  • Black skinny trousers or jeans. They are worn by both sexes
  • Sweatshirts with and without a hood, plain and monotonous
  • Solid colored fitted tanks, t-shirts and tops
  • T-shirts, T-shirts and tops with prints
  • Hooded sweatshirts
  • Striped tunics and sweaters. It could be a black and pink stripe, a blue stripe, etc.
  • Accessories. Messenger bags, backpacks, black and plaid leather belts, wristbands featuring your favorite band, skull pins and broken hearts etc. Scarves will allow you to “refresh” the image and add a “zest”. In winter it is customary to wear long striped scarves, and in summer - small chiffon and linen scarves. For winter, wearing mittens and fingerless gloves is also important.
  • Sneakers or sneakers with colored laces
  • Plastic glasses with thick frames (with plain or correction lenses)
  • Tight short skirts
  • Loose plaid shirts.

Makeup and hairstyle in emo style

Makeup requires the mandatory application of foundation, which allows you to keep your skin in perfect condition longer. Shadows are applied along the eyelashes, along the entire length of the eyelid, and black eyeliner or eyeliner is also used. You can use shades of black, pink, green and purple flowers. Several layers of mascara are applied to the eyelashes, and matte beige or pale pink lipstick is applied to the lips.

The hairstyle is created individually. It can be short or long hair with extensions or dyed pink, purple, blue or another color.

Emo style is not only clothing, but above all a state of mind, the ability to experience other people’s feelings as your own, and also to clearly express emotions. If an emo girl is sad, she cries, and if her soul is happy, then a smile adorns her face.

Emo (from the English “emotional” - emotional) is not just a style, but a whole direction that appeared in the 80s of the last century along with the new musical direction emocore, based on the strong emotions of the vocalist and melodic music. However, quite a lot of time passed before this style gained extraordinary popularity among teenagers. And for several years now we have been watching young people who listen to emotional music about love and death, look very extraordinary and, without hesitation, tell the whole world about their emotions.

Emo hair and makeup

Let's start with the fact that the emo style is characterized by the obligatory presence of black, both in clothes and makeup. Even the hair color of emo teenagers is black. It would seem that they are gloomy people, but no! Emo style also has a bright pink color, which distinguishes it from gothic. Therefore, the emo image is very bright and, as a rule, attracts everyone's attention.

Among emo teenagers you will not find blondes or blonds; more often they dye their hair black, sometimes diluting it with pink, white or ash-gray strands. Emo hair is worn straight, its length can be absolutely any, as well as the type of hairstyle itself - from perfectly smooth and neat to tousled. The main attribute of an emo hairstyle is bangs, cut obliquely and covering one eye. Emo girls often add a little doll-like flair to their hairstyles by decorating them with thin pink headbands, barrettes and ribbons.

Emo makeup is bright, catchy and very simple. Black eyeliner, black shadows combined with pink ones. Moreover, such makeup is applied not only by girls, but also by boys.

In addition to hairstyles and bright makeup, emo faces can also be pierced, there are huge “tunnel” piercings in the ears, and stylish and bright tattoos on the hands, signifying the main values ​​of this trend - emotions and love.

Emo clothes and shoes

The colors in clothes are still the same - black and pink, although other bright, eye-catching shades are also allowed. But the main colors of the style are far from random; they have their own special meanings. Black is the color of sadness, sadness, pain and melancholy. Pink represents the brightest moments in an emo's life related to their emotions such as friendship and love.

The style of the clothing itself is quite simple: sports T-shirts, jeans, leggings, sweatshirts with bright, unusual designs (this could be hearts, suicide symbols, pins, blades, sad or cheerful people, couples in love). Emo girls can often be found wearing full tutu skirts, which is one of their ways of self-expression, which is quite valued in the emo style. Emo girls can boldly combine such a skirt with openwork bright tights.

Clothes in the emo style are also characterized by stripes and checks, but again only in black and pink or black and white. Emo guys can most often be found in tight jeans, trousers, faded T-shirts, decorated with bright prints. The favorite shoes of emo are sneakers, skate slippers, slip-ons and flips.

With the help of clothes, emo people express their emotions, and to emphasize their mood, they “decorate” their emo looks with various accessories: ties, suspenders, bandages, wristbands, bracelets, jewelry in the form of plastic decorations, collars with spikes, metal chains. Costume jewelry has a more romantic character, although it vaguely resembles punk accessories. Almost all emos have their own collection of badges with images or logos of famous musical groups that symbolize this trend, or with drawings that reflect their unique image of these emotional and vibrant personalities.

So there is definitely nothing scary or sinister about these black and pink guys and girls, they just want to tell the whole world about their emotions just like that - bright, original and very bold.

I wrote this story when I was having a very difficult time in my life. Each of us knows what it's like when you love someone so much that sometimes you don't care what others think. And even if THIS person is a real GOAT, you won’t understand it. You will try to be only with him, in any way. So it was with me. He lives 2 houses away from me good guy. HE is kind, gentle, smart, handsome, very attentive. Listens to rap. He studied at our school in 11-A. Graduate - 2008. DENIS... His name is Denis. He knows how I feel about him, but now we are just friends.
Yes, I understand. WE have become too different from him. HE is essentially a rapper now, and since then I began to constantly cry at night, write poetry, dress in black, began to get interested in piercings and tattoos, and became interested in walking alone at night. Even some guy liked it so much that I had to send him twice, and the third time she said that I was a lesbian - I fell behind. Now I’m writing and letting everyone read my soul:
. . .
“Morning...Frosty autumn morning. The rising sun brightly illuminated the slowly awakening city with its cold rays. Frost-covered leaves crunched under HIS steps. HE walked silently, slowly, thinking about something, not paying attention to passers-by. HE walked towards HER... breathing heavily HE walked between the black painted fences to the end of the row, to where the bright artificial flowers of funeral wreaths could be seen from afar, to where a fresh grave with a stone had recently appeared gray cross. HE knew: SHE was there! SHE is waiting for HIM. SHE wants to see HIM.
Clutching the flowers in his hands, HE slowly approached. White, barely visible steam melted in the air, appearing with HIS breath. He stood. . . From time to time HE clenched his teeth until they creaked and tears flowed slowly down HIS cheeks, one after another. Tears of the state of the heart, the soul in which one could see the question about HER action, madly frozen in HIS gaze. HE did not feel either the cold or the fatigue in HIS body that had been tormenting him for a couple of days since HE learned about what had happened these days. HE didn't care. And so HE stood, lowering his eyes to the convex photograph of HER on the cross... He was thinking about something:..
" - How could you?
- What were YOU thinking about?
- For what?
- Why did YOU take a step and give up life so easily?
- What did those who knew YOU accuse you of?
- For what? - For what?
- But everyone loved YOU! , and now YOU are THERE...
- No, why? - No...”
Heavily, panting, HE squeezed in his hands a pair of cream roses (which SHE loved very much). Falling to his knees, HE kissed the velvet petals of the buds that had not yet opened. The thorns of the roses entered deeper into his palms, squeezing out hot drops of blood, slowly flowing down HIS strong, trembling fingers, and fell onto the black ground in front of the cross. HE stood up. He threw the flowers with a flourish...Touching the cross with his blood-stained hands, he whispered::
“Sunny, I love YOU... and I loved you then! But... For some reason I couldn’t admit... Why did YOU take this step? What were YOU thinking while standing there on the roof of a nine-story building? But YOU are only 16...I know, YOU wanted to be with ME so much...And I am a fool!!! Didn’t call that evening...AND YOU...? Did you really wait??? And I was with her. I forgot...about YOU, that the same evening when WE made peace - I should have called YOU. I knew that during these three and a half years, YOU loved only ME, I never saw YOU with anyone else. I knew! YOU only wanted to be with ME! Sorry... Just one simple call could change the lives of two little people. I'm sorry...I LOVE YOU!.."
Having passed the cold black earth with his strong, trembling hand for the last time, HE stood up. He stood there a little longer and slowly, not feeling the ground under his feet, walked straight, head down. HE walked down the street without feeling the vibration of his phone. I walked without thinking - just straight. I didn't care about anything. Tripping over the curb, HE looked back. He saw the same nine-story building right in front of him. Walked in... Climbed the steps. Here is the last one... and then... the roof. Looking down at the small people passing by, I thought about something for a long time... For some reason I didn’t want to go back home to my friends, some kind of porridge was in my head, preventing me from soberly understanding the situation. HE remembered her face, her brown eyes, those lips that he could touch just once... HE couldn’t cry anymore, he just didn’t have the strength. A thought appeared in my head, full of self-resentment -------.
The idea that: “LOVE is higher than LIFE!” - THEY HAVE ……….. HE took a step……………………………………

In this past life, THEY could not be there,
But maybe THERE – THEY are together now! »
