I’m finding my goth style at 40. So never to late yall. Honestly found that just adding black lipstick can change how the outfit is perceived. Love the channel.
Of course it's not late, you are just 40. Live Estelle and be happy :3
never too late! I hate how society tells people, (mainly women) they have to conform and look 'normal' once they are older, when I am 70/80 I am still going to be dressing punk and showing my tattoos and piercings !!!
I've finally started branching out with my style and the clothes I'm getting. My mom and grandma finally know what I like now and I'm getting more confident in my sewing. Can't wait to see where I go from here!
That is so exciting to hear !! Im really proud of u and excited for u!!! That’s awesome I love to hear it !!!🥳🥰🥺
That’s good
That's cool ✨
I cannot recommend thrifting enough! my bf and I(both ftm) went thrifting together, he found a full like three piece suit that looked like it belonged to a middle aged gay alcoholic casino owner, and I found mens dress shoes as well as a big black trench coat, and it makes me so happy
Oh my god i LOVE THAT! That sounds like such a cute date too 🥺 congrats on the wonderful finds !!!!!🌝🥺🥰
@@RattusRattus aw thank you
I have a couple of suggestions!
- think BODYSUITS. They can be very inexpensive and they come in every colour/style (I have two that have long sleeves too, so they are super hot in the winter!). Especially if you like more croppy sweaters/tops in general, having bodysuits underneath that don't move around when you walk is very good in the winter and looks good for layering.
- materials are key sometimes! Try to stay away from microfiber if you can and go for leggings/tighs made of wool, cashmere (those are expensive tho), fleece etc. Especially if you're sensitive to the cold, they can save the day!
Wool in general is also insulating, it will keep you extra warm and avoid the cold getting to you.
But if you're into knitting, then cashmere is fun to work with. My mum knits and crochets a lot of stuff and make herself like so many jumpers.
i'mf rom Russia, and we have a very similar climate to Canada, so this is going to be really helpful! thank you 💙 your videos are always so put together!
My channel do live ddlg and abdl lifestyle also mental health Gothic vampire talk personality disorder talk
I'm so glad someone found Rabbit and wound them back up. You see, Rabbit has been sitting in this exact spot since the last upload.
I am definitely making/ buying a cape- what’s better then a attachable blanket
hi rabbit!
you're so cool and your energy honestly motivated me to come out to some of my friends as genderfluid
Hi !! WHAT! That’s so cool I’m so proud of you!!!! ❤️ congratulations!!
And yay yay that’s truly amazing !! I’m so stoked for your leather jacket ! I plan to do a sewing machine tutorial soon hopefully (maybe it can help!) 🥺❤️ aw you are so sweet thank you for the lovely comment!!!
omg hi fellow genderfluid person :)) i hope your friends support you no matter what and that you live happy beings yourself
being* whoops :)
came to say I think i might be genderfluid also??? so hello my people! perhaps! i love y'all anyways!!!
Hello fellow genderfluid :D
Trying so hard to pay attention but I can't stop looking at the hair mushrooms lol, they're so cool looking
🥺🥰 ty 🍄 I got them at the dollar store (dollarama I think) in the gardening section! They have tons of different color options and they’re lightweight foam ! Absolutely love them 🥰
Hey Rabbit, Great lookbook! Watching this after an argument with my parents that ended with them tossing out all my goth/alt/punk clothes, chokers, demonias, everything. Im in the grey now, but i’m hoping to move out and get back on track so I could try out these cool looks. Thanks for a great look book, stay spooky :)
Oh my goodness I cannot imagine that; that seriously sucks and I’m sorry you had to experience that :( I really hope you can find a safe space and rebuild your wardrobe ! That seriously blows, I’m sending a very big hug ❤️❤️❤️
my parents are the same, they are conservative Irish catholics and hate how I dress, they say everything I wear ''looks daft''... I showed them one of rabbits DIY videos and they said ''they do the same smathering as you'' lol XD some people will never get it unfortunately
Your parents are control freaks much? That's terrible, and I feel bad for you. How the heck were they able to do that? Were you not there? When I lived at home years ago, I was working, had my own car, and bought whatever I wanted to wear. We did have a big fight when I was 16, and I left to live with my friend and her older sister, and never went back. Later, I my 20s, we did reconcile. However, goth wasn't a thing yet back then, so I was punk. I hope you can recover your style soon. (Jan Griffiths).
Tips:
If you are going for fairycore/goblincore kind of vibes thrift stores/charity shops are a great place to find very cheap and cool jumpers/sweaters, I usually look in the men’s section for oversized ones. But I have found some really cool jumpers, recently I found a hand knitted one that gives great fall/winter vibes.
Long skirts are your best friend! I know this was mentioned in the video but I love wearing thick tights underneath to stay warm.
Chunky shoes/boots like doc martens are great and keep ur feet very toasty and also look cute with long flowy skirts.
I have found so many cute hats at charity shops recently so always make sure to look for hats and also scarves, I love to look for thin and small scarves to tie in my hair as headbands (not necessarily a winter tip but just thought I’d mention while talking abt scarves!)
Corduroy is great to wear in cold weather, I find it keeps me quite warm and It looks great too.
These were mainly for fairycore/goblincore/dark academia kind of style but you could apply them to diff styles too I guess!
Also thank you if you read this all! Remember to care for your body today and remember you are loved :)
THANK YOUUUU!! it gets so cold so quick in alberta and it’s so difficult to dress alternative in the winter. I rarely ever see anyone make videos like this- Thank you rabbit!!
Yay!!!!! As a fellow Canadian (and Albertan lol) I relate ! So happy it could be helpful 🥰🥰🥰
THIS COMMENT!!! I can't find ANYTHING on Canadian winters!!! It's insane!! And if I do? It's like,,, more classy, minimalist & basic? Not that basic is bad! The outfits still look cute. But I'm just looking to dress more alt in the winter lmao, I don't just wanna wear 2 colours & a basic pair of gloves and call it a day :") So I'm so happy to see Rabbit post a video like this ;;×;; Our cold butts are saved!! 😂😂 I find that any ALT related video based on our weather temps, helps out soooo muuuchh. Even if it's a shorter video, just telling u want to wear, not even a how to layer. Is decent enough! I honestly haven't started the video yet LMAO I just got so excited abt your comment, and i KNEW what I was gonna b in for when watching their videos ;;w;; I can't wait for us peeps to dress warm & look super cute too while doing so! UwU Hope u stay warm this winter!! Hope you have a wonderful day! 😊💖
@@stinkyrat3744 very glad to find someone who relates, as a person living in central europe i relate 100%
Video suggestion dressing alt/goth/punk/ while wearing basic work uniform.
Most jobs (basic minimum wage) don't allow skirts or dresses most recommend jeans or pants and a t-shirt (some may also require you to wear vest or apron)
Lookbook ideas for basic job uniforms or what are some outfits you wear to work
Would love to see either one 💜 please ☺️
Rabbit, Rabbit!! I did a thing! I made a battle flannel!! I'm so happy! I made and put pockets on it, patches, buttons, all that I madeeeee! I even made little angel wings on the back :DD
I can't remember if I already told you- but if I did I got more done!
OMG OMG!!!! I’m so proud of you / happy for you!!!!! That sounds SO COOL I love that you hand made so much for it 🥺 that’s awesome - congrats! 🥳🥰
@@RattusRattus EEEE :DDDD I would have been so lost, or maybe not even made it if I hadn't found your channel! Haha, I didn't even know they were a thing! Now look at me, dressing how 11 year old me wishes she could
🥺🥰😭 this is so incredibly sweet! Oh my god i love that
@@RattusRattus LMAO I EVEN DRESSED LIKE A CAT GIRL LAST NIGHT- as a joke, but again, 11 y/o me would have BALLED if she knew she could look that good 🙏🙏 if you want I can dm you a pic of the jacket on instagram
@@heyits_cat8966 lmao love that 🥺🥰 feel free ! I would love to see it ! (My Instagram is rattusrattus3 🥳
I think the everyday look was my favorite look. Simple, super achievable, and super cool. Thank you for this awesome video :))
Watching rabbit's old fashion videos = self care
🥺🥰 you’re too sweet !
thanks for helping me find my style and building my wardrobe, im a trans girl and this video has been such an inspiration! I definitely will be making my own patch pants now!
I appreciate how you talk about things you like without being negative about other things. That is so common and a huge bummer, so I appreciate you :D.
Hey Rabbit!
Just wanted to tell you, that you are a very big Inspiration for me! I started painting my own patches and sewing the on a dotted skirt and it just looks awesome! Thanks for All the ideas and i love your channel! ❤❤❤
Hellbunny is literally my favorite brand! Their stuff is great but always a size to big. A size S is in reality a size M, so ceep that in mind when buying.
Hello my lovely! Thankyou for putting steampunk outfit in this it’s such an underrated style
I have always felt that I'm too old to find my alternative style but you're videos make me feel so safe and appreciated. Thank you so much for making these videos they're so helpful! ❤😊
Pausing the video at 40 minutes in because I've seen so many outfits that I could make with clothes in my closet that I thrifted over the past few years, but am always postponing to wear because I don't feel confident enough to put them together. Seeing you style them and be so comfortable and ~you~ in them really inspires me to at least try to wear them and see how they feel - whichever mood I'm in that day. I'm looking forward to watching the DIY jacket video after this one and I'm definitely going to subscribe, thank you for being a breath of fresh air xx
omg rabbit i ADORE your style and how passionate you are abt like, diy and thrifting and getting creative w mixing pieces together 🥺 iconic imo
ooooh i needed a video like this! i only just started wearing goth fashion and have been struggling to find cute winter outfits
i’m always ready to hear winter tips cos i can’t deal with cold weather - which is annoying ❤️🔥
honestly, layering works so well with any goth/punk/etc fashion
I also have another idea for keeping your hands warm, If you have old socks or get new socks you can turn them into gloves if you cut the ankle part and toes the sew the ankle part together when the sock is inside out, then if you want to you can cut thumb holes.
Another really inspirational video! I really have trouble dressing like myself for winter, because I find it hard to layer enough for the german cold seasons without looking too bulky, but I’ll definitely try out some of your tips. :)
Thank you so much for the great content!
This is so helpful- thank you I was freezing
every time i see you post i say fuck yea! ever since i found your channel and started watching your vids ive been exploring my own style and been less self conscious about trying new funky things! and ive found and made so many outfits i love, versus stuff i was wearing just because thats what i had, i feel more me!!
First can I say you look like a cool fairy that lives in a lavender crystal cave (in the best way imaginable), but I just discovered your channel and I love your style and energy. I’m just getting into thrifting, diy-ing and finally getting my own style and you are super inspiring!
I have a few union suits (onesies) that I wear under clothes in the winter. They are very warm, almost too warm at times. It gets pretty cold in norther AZ where I live in the winter, but nothing like Canada (where I was born) or Michigan (where I was raised), but still cold enough to wear sherpas and other warm weather gear. Great ideas and lookbook. (Jan Griffiths).
This was so much fun and so inspiring! Thank you for sharing! I hope you, your partner, Lemon and Tuna are all having a lovely day!
I thank you so much for these videos, i live in a town/country where you'd be judged and stared at if you dressed this type of way or if you just look different, but the confidence you give me is amazing :D so i really do appreciate you
That Mushroom hair clip is God tier.
i saw the froggy earmuffs in the background and thought they were really cute, and then you wore them and they looked so fun! i would totally wear them haha
I cant put into words how much I LOVE your hair omfg
Wool is another good material. It's very warm and it also dries quickly, which is extremely important to staying warm, especially if it snows where you live, or if you're anything like me and go hiking through a damn river. Remember that cotton kills (when it's wet out), you're much more likely to get hypothermia if your clothes are wet, and cotton dries very slowly. That's probably getting more into wilderness survival and outdoorsy stuff, but still good to keep in mind, cotton pants like sweats or jeans, or cotton socks aren't great in snow!
currently binging all of your videos!! i love diy and seeing how people express themselves through their clothing. will definitely try some of these out in my mountain winters :P
That’s so sweet thank you !!! I also love that about diy - it’s amazing how much personality we can infuse in our clothes with just a bit of time and effort ! 🥰 thank you thank you and good luck when winters come!
Ahh I love that Rabbits videos tend to be longer so i can get myself a cup of tea and just enjoy. Yeah- normally im a pretty quiet watcher but i just had to say this.
🥺🥰 thank you !!! I appreciate that so much ❤️ sometimes I get worried my videos go on too long but I like long videos so I’m happy others do too!!
Ahhhh! Perfect timing! I was just searching for alt winter outfit ideas and here you are with a new video. Love to you as always, Rabbit!
Omg I cannot express how amazing this video is, as someone who lives in a very cold place. I've been struggling lately with putting outfits together that I like, but this gave me so much inspiration!!! Thank youuu
Aww yay! That is so sweet I am very happy to hear that!! Yay! 🥳🥺❤️🥰
@@RattusRattus aw ofc, your videos are always so amazing and helpful and I love your enthusiasm about alt stuff :D
Hi Rabbit, thank you for being a outfit inspiration and giving me so many good ideas! Hope you have a good day💕
The outfit with the cloak and elf ears reminded me of Raine Whispers from The Owl House 🥺 so beautiful, amazing video!
Aw yaaayy i was literally just thinking about how I wished you made a winter version of the vid u mentioned at the beginning! 😍
i'm so glad i stumbled across your videos, they are insanely useful and deserve more recognition. you've given me so many ideas
My style is metalhead, emo, with goth influences, so I have many options 😁
Yessss! i’m so excited to watch!
I’ve been looking at those adorable mushrooms in your hair throughout the whole video. Thanks for the life hacks💕
Rabbit you are such an inspiration!!!! Every time I watch your videos I get a boost of confidence!!! ❤ u
ahh thank you for the tips, rabbit!! you're awesome! i recently got this really cool leather trenchcoat at a thrift store and i'm really excited to style it with some gothic type of looks this winter :)) anyway i hope you're doing well!
RABBIT THANK YOU SM AAAAAA I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND YOUR EDITING AND SINCE ITS WINTER I REALLY NEEDED THIS THANK YOU 💗💗💗💗💗💗
ur videos always make my day :) thank u for the tips!! ❄️💖
Smth I found that was easy to make is a wallet chain out of can tabs. I made one and it's so cool
YESS can tabs are such a versatile material to work with!!! Love this tip!
Thank you so much for all the advice! It really helps a lot as a puppy punk! I started dressing more of how I want to dress and my mom started noticing! And she’s totally fine with it! I’m so excited! I’ve started on my Battle jacket and it’s looking really good so far!
For jackets I can recommend getting a ski jacket, you can sometimes find those secondhand and there exist really cute ones that are made out of fake fur but they still have the extra warm lining stuff meaning you still don't have to compromise warmth for style. I personally just got a really boring black one because warmth always comes before style for me. I still wear my more alternative boots because I found some who are warm as fuck.
Ski jackets are the best thing I ever found for myself though by far and mine only cost me 10 bucks when the brand I got usually goes for at least 120 to 150 bucks on the low end of their product line. The one I got apparently was originally 250 bucks.
That is a truly truly impressive Monster High doll collection! What a great channel.
I've been freezing in my clothes for few weeks now honestly tysm for this vid i also wanna say you rlly inspire me ty for being yourself and making those vids
Thank you so much! I plan to go live in Canada and I was kinda afraid by the winter and you totally help me! 😍🥺
your videos make me so happy!!!!
thank you so much rabbit.
i was waiting for this vid from you oh my god, thankyou so much ive been dying wearing ripped jeans on like 3° degrees
but my god are you gorgeous i love your creativity and how kind you are😭🤚🏽
Love your stuff, Rabbit!!!! I live in Canada too! This was much needed, thanks! :D
I’m going to a concert in February and I needed some outfit inspo, so thank you for this!
Aww yay! Enjoy your concert 🥳🥳🥳 ty for the nice comment!
You have so many awesome things and you've really come up with some great outfits. Love your rings and necklaces. Stay cool!
my #1 tip is too buy some thick warm skintone tights and then put your fishnets or cut up tights over top of them
That was one of my tips too :-)
hii!! this video and you both are a very big inspiration to me and i think i will try a few of these!! very amazing:)
You're so pretty/hansom ( which ever you prefer ) I love watching your tips and hacks they help so much ♡♡♡
HELLO!!! This video is so cool! Just wanted to say that your videos are so inspiring and i watch them to calm my anxiety attacks. You are the best
I got 1$ leggings at a garage sale. I cut biker shorts for new underwear, and the leg made a perfect bell bottom sleeve.
Crazy prints make a fun layering piece.
Thank you so much for the tips rabbit love your videos!
I live in Minnesota so I deal with very similar weather to what you have in Canada, so this is gonna be super useful! I finally started dressing how I want this year, but it was during summer so I need these winter tips 😊
Youre so creative! This helps so much🖤
Went thrifting today I get almost all of my clothes second hand. Found so many good things.
Awww congrats!! That’s so exciting! I also thrift most of my clothes - it’s the best ! 🥰🥺🥳
Thank you so much for this
Hi Rabbit! I love love love your hair colors ! Very "winter solstice cool"!
Happiest n warm regards from Colorado🏔🗻
Hey ! I’ve been watching your videos for a few months and just wanted to say how helpful they are , I used to have a lot of trouble with knowing how to get alt fashion stuff but your videos helped me see the use of the clothes I alredy have so I just wanted to say ty for making them !!
Wow! Thank you so much for this sweet comment I’m so happy to hear that!!! Good luck on your alt journey 🥳❤️🥺🖤 and have fun! ❤️❤️❤️
I love the mushroom thing in your hair
Oh thank you for this!
You are so adorable and I totally have the biggest crush. Awesome ideas!🖤
I love layering wool tights and sweaters and skirts to keep warm
Such a good combo!!! 🥰
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I love ur videos bc u always have ideas for cheap alt outfits and accessories like DIY and stuff cuz I'm sorta middle class and can't rlly go all out buying alt atire since they r super expensive. I love going to like Goodwill or other thrift stores and they have such cool thing in the costumes sections!! I SAW THIS MONSTER HIGH CAPE ONCE WITH THE SKULL LOGO THING BUT IT WAS FOR LIKE 6 YR OLDS. Ppl need to start making these types things in bigger sizes. -w- So yeah thank you sm Rabbit!!
yayy can't wait to watch this!!
Hi Rabbit!
I made some tartan trousers the other day out of a long skirt from a charity shop! i’m so proud of myself and i’m obsessed with them 😅 i love making my own stuff and you give me inspo for more outfits 😁 also i love the pronoun patch! that’s a great idea i can’t wait to make a patch jacket!! Thankyou so much for being you 💕💕
YOUR OUTFITS ARE SO COOL!! your third look reminds me of a vampire pirate :DD
omgg bro you have so much personality like your personality is so cool including your outfits omg omg omg
🥺🥺🥺 tysm this is so sweet ❤️
thank uuu!! ive just moved to a colder city and i needed a video like this
Congrats on the move!🥳 and good luck! ⛄️
Awesome! love the video.😀😊
A unique one - Dabi coat from Dabi cosplay of My Hero; put it underneath a flannel and on top of the flannel put on a fluffy soft sweater. Then some colorful leggings, combat boots, and a bowler hat. Kind of unique cause it’s an in between outfit of aesthetics and a reason more to wear my Dabi coat, so it won’t be essentially useless, being part of a cosplay outfit.
This video is so great and helpful!! I totally agree that the best alt pieces are the ones you find or make yourself, that’s really what alt is meant to be lol
I’d really love to know how you used to do your makeup when your color scheme was greens and a little cottagecore, if you ever get a chance!
Love this video you help me out with my life ❤ much love princess 👸
Im,,,, super excited to watch this. Ive been 👀👀 scavenging all over CZcams & can the Google tm for annnnny Canadian alt clothe wearing tips and such xD I find that most videos dont? Have the layering i like, or the costs r too thin. And wearing a thicc coat all the time makes me cranky and reminds me why i don't like winter :"( So I'm super excited to unpack this video and get all snuggly and warm this winter, with some fashionable fits too UwU Thanks so much for always making such!! Informative, helpful, inspiring and very smart ideas too! You're very creative & think outside the box. You'll name off some crafty things you've done with your clothes and accessories before & I get excited, bc I've done the same things too 😂 Learning new stuff from u too blows me away more & gets me more excited bc I can implant such a good idea! 😁 Its cool to see more crafty folk on CZcams, that are Alt and very artsy :,) Thank you so much again ☺ Have a wonderful day & Happy holidays, if I don't comment again before then 😊💖
hey i live in a really cold place atm (the uk climate is ridiculous, the summers are too hot & the winters are practically artic) so thanks for this video. one thing that i’ve found is also just constantly layering t-shirt underneath your actual outfit is a super easy way to keep warm 💕💕
Over here in Ireland it’s cold in summer and even colder in winter
@@hoshikozombie and the secondary school lasses are still walking around with short skirts when I'm practically freezing to death XD I'm so jealous of their cold resistance lol
Omg, I love your style!
Ah tysm!! 🥺🥰
Love ur videos💖💖 also spotted Totoro!!
I'm sorry i'm viewing this so late but this is literally so helpful🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Omg I love your monster high collection, love seeing other people who collect them
Ahh thank you so much! And hell yeah!! I just found monster high in 2020(?) and completely fell in love with it !! I have a few old videos up about my doll collection n stuff (I plan to do more MH content soon I hope!) ❤️
Your outfits are so good
yoooo!!! I like to throw on your vids while I tinker away at projects, and I was literally about to sew on that exact “frequent criers” patch to my foraging bag! I looked up and had to do a double take 😮
You are literally so creative I love your videos so much! -Fellow Aquarian❤️
Aww thank u thank u ❤️ much love to u aqua friend ♒️❤️!!
