| Emo boys and gals have always placed special importance on looking unique, their apparel and accessories being the most significant characteristic for standing out in the crowd. Attempting to look different from the rest of society, emo persons shun conformism. Here are a few basic pieces of advice on how to obtain emo look. However, one should not forget that wearing emo apparel just because it makes you look cool is NOT ok. Apparel should reflect your uniqueness.A true emo can be unmistakenly be recoznized by the Emo coiffure, which normally is straightened colored hair (commonly black, but it can also be white, brown, purple etc.) frequently interleaved with bright colors (vibrant pink, green, acid blue or red), a long fringe brushed to one side of the face or over one or both eyes. Bob-cuts, layers and hair short in the back and long in the front look really emo too. The most important thing is to obtain an expressive hairstyle. Very girly hairpins, bandanas, ribbons contribute to emo look as well.Black horn-rimmed eyeglasses, usually very thick, are also an essential part of emo style. Emo gals, however, can enjoy a variety of colors and go for darker shades of red, brown or blue.The key term to emo style is "skin tight". Emo clothing is normally viewed as tight emo jeans (drainpipes or skinnies) on boys and girls alike. Jeans are worn with a double belt. One belt is usually of common design and the other one is adorned with clinchers and metal strips. Studded belts and large belt buckles are also very common. Dresses and skirts can be worn by gals if properly coupled with converses and leg warmers.Very narrow emo t-shirts are often adorned with the inscription of music bands or very common emo symbols such as the bleeding heart, stars and the skull. Vintage or vintage-looking shirts with images of animated heroes or rock musicians are also very very common. The key here is originality, or at least the illusion of it. Again, the t-shirt or a slander jacket should be very extra narrow, up to 2 sizes smaller.For looking emo, black eyeliner and other dark make-up are significant. Keep in mind, there is never too little black eye liner, shades, and black mascara. A little brightly colored eyeliner can also be applied in combination with the black eye liner.Emo shoes make the emo (look complete. The most common emo shoes are Converses or Vans. But many other shoes, as long as they are black with pink laces, can also be made look emo. The most very common choice is gym footwear of conversion or avant-garde style. To look more emo, shoes can be decorated with white-out pen/highlighter/permanent marker.Chasing the emo look, make sure you are not trying to be someone you are not. It can be insulting for true emo boys and girls. |
