Re: which 'catagory' would you put yourself in?
I don't know honestly... I've heard people call me cyber, and industrial, but I'm neither, I don't wear those (prepare for personal opinion) silly gas masks or "toxic" goggles, and I never will, why would I want to restrict my breathing and eyesight to fit in?
I have dreads a lot, or did, now I have wigs, or short black hair, I wear a lot of camo and military type items, latex on nights out, so a military type thing.
But at the same time, I do do the whole neon nightmare/ daglow thing... with a bit of cute i.e bows buttons... so maybe a candy goth, I spent three minutes trying to answer this and still have no idea haha

Re: which 'catagory' would you put yourself in?
Oh and my Parisian friends call me gypsy hippy, or free party/psy hippy... apparently there is nothing even remotely close to the concept of candy/cyber in France, because I'm far from a hippy x

Re: which 'catagory' would you put yourself in?
If I had the money & the figure for it I would always be dressed in 50's rockabilly or burlesque style clothing, but alas I have neither. So as someone else put - I currently wear what fits! (But in my head I look and dress like Dita Von Teese! )

I know but French cyber is nothing like psy, it's so odd... I went to a gig there and was the only person in colour, neon fucking yellow and they were all in black, very awkward ><

Labels are for cans.
Normally im out in a band shirt and skinnies.
But thats mostly because of my lack of money at the moment.
I would be dressing gothic lolita style for sure if i had the money xD

Even if we dont have the same beliefs/ideas, I will respect you. I will offer you common decency. You don't have to impress me, because I'm not here to impress you

I'm confused, so you're not labelled because you can't afford to dress the way you do? x

i only said "labels is for cans" because its a quote my friend cam used to say all the time, and it was the first thing i thought when i read the tital.
it dosnt have anything else to do with the rest of my post.

Re: which 'catagory' would you put yourself in?
I would LOVE to be in a category - it would be so much easier to explain myself to people!
I don't have one though... it's really whatever takes my fancy on that particular day. My wardrobe is pretty schizophrenic to be honest, and so is my taste in music.

Re: which 'catagory' would you put yourself in?
Honestly,I have no labels...I think my style is a huge contradiction to MANY of them...
Some days...I'm in dark clothing such as black/dark blue/dark purples..& other days I'm just comfortable & other days I'm redneck & other days I'm I guess very vanilla & nothing I wear most times matches haha like yesterday I was wearing blue jeans,my black skater shoes with contrasting bright blue shoe strings & my black & gray lacey sleeved shirt with redneck style sunglasses on my head lol & right now i'm wearing that same shirt with bright blue/green/white purple pajama pants...& don't even get me started on my music I like that's so up & down the spectrum It's ridiculous lol. SO I guess you could say my style is VERY diverse. Yep,I think diverse about covers it haha.

Re: which 'catagory' would you put yourself in?
im a bit of everything!
Most of my residents call me "that punk one" or "punky" but i get called goth as well...even tho im FAR too colourfull
I wouldnt ladel myself as punk at all, i love punk and ska music and i can see a lot of punk influences in my style but then i can also see a lot of other influences too.
When i get asked about it i just say im Lauren, i wear what I like!!

Re: which 'catagory' would you put yourself in?
I don't really have a label for myself either I'm more a mash up of styles that i've listened to over the years. I started off as a bit of a goth/grunger at high school then really got into more punk/metal/japanese rock but i honestly listen to everything from 80s/metal/punk/grunge/japanese to the odd bit of chart music. My casual day to day style is now just t-shirt, tight jeans & cons and the t shirt is usually movie/band orientated but still people keep calling me goth/emo
