I watched The Haunting (1963) again last night with friends and man, what a beautifully and intricately well shot movie. I need to make a post of screenshots soon because some of the frames are so good. The interiors are designed to look puzzling and full of faces. The house eally is a character of it's own. Incidentally I woke up with the feeling of being haunted at 5am today, which is weird because I'm a huge skeptic and usually watch horror media without blinking. I blame the current conflict with my close family because this shit has me regressing (I used to be a big scaredy cat as a child/teen. Then it stopped as an adult just like that.)

Dude you're one of the most amazing artist on this site, you're so talented and kind and I never talk to you because I don't talk to anyone on the internet (I'm shy online) but I really appreciate your presence here

Yesterday I saw a comic saying that basically gen Z has a variety of hyper specific clothing styles for teens and young adults to express themselves in while millenials only had "emo" and I resented that so much for some reason? First of all it's completely false, it just so happens that emo was the most "online" style of alternative fashion and therefore the most documented imo. It also happens to be the style of later years millenials, who are the link between gen Z and millenials, thus cementing the "online" and most visible part of the trend. But please, I didn't go through all the phases I went through as a teen to be erased like that. I'm too lazy to find pics for each item of the list but off the top of my head, growing up in France I personally had these phases:

Y2K streetwear extremely influenced by hip hop and R&B with a touch of futurism in there like tinted frameless glasses and the like. This was almost always styled with a middle part for girls, and extremely flat, straightened hair. It's making a big comeback right now, mixed with elements of 80's fashion, and I love seeing it.

The whole Skater aesthetic with big Van's and Buffalo shoes, loose cargo pants, flannel shirts over t-shirts, lots of bracelets you'd never take off even in the shower. I exclusively wore bikini bottoms so that the bright color of them peeking out from my loose pants would match the rest of my outfits and it's a miracle I didn't get a yeast infection per week, somehow.

Goth, goth has always been there in all of it's iterations. There was a time when boneless corsets were so casually mainstream you could find them in many stores and you bet your ass I was getting my hands on as many as possible. I was the romantic goth with the long skirts and the corsets over mesh tops. We didn't have Hot Topic but we had Claire's, and it had a lot of goth stuff back in the days.

Punk, I would call it light punk or commercial punk, Avril Lavigne and the likes. It's kinda adjacent to the skater aesthetic but you would see a lot of tartan miniskirts over pants, and belts, and ties, and safety pins. I would DIY a lot of clothes by painting them too (with song lyrics), fun times.

Hippie: lots of "harem pants" and shawls wrapped around the waist and handmade jewelry with beads. Very music-festival-white-citizen-of-the-world cringe but hey, it was what it was. Now my siblings are 4 years younger than me and they experienced the Emo days. but never partook. They also lived through the weird "mini-adult" phase of fashion where everybody dressed super boring like jean T-shirt and ballerina flats, and were either carrying their books in their arms like they were in a teen movie, or only using longchamp bags (or fake ones) on the shoulder. Another regional variant I got, as I lived in Southern France, was the cagole (bimbo) look, but it's pretty specific to where I lived and is kinda timeless since I keep seeing women of all ages rocking it proudly: basically loud animal print, loud makeup, and fluorescent colors matching in at least two items of clothing/accessories. I cannot express how much it delights me when I seen an old woman at the beach dressed like Fran Fine enjoying her tan and not giving a fuck. It's amazing. Anyway, millenials of all background feel free to add to this post with your experience of alternative fashion as a teen.

Some news + I'm on insta now!

I'm so happy to see ppl join the Beetlejuice musical (or general Beetlejuice) fandom as recently as last week, it warms my heart. Alas, I can't seem to keep up with my timeline and I'm scouring the tags for reblog content, there are so many fanworks I wanna doooo and there are so many hours in the dayyy. My life has been hectic but in a good way, I hardly have time to keep up with my timeline anymore, but I love y'all, thank you for the reblogs and follows <3 I've also created an instagram account to share a choice selection of fanart with the cast and crew of the show, since I didn't get to mail them things while the show was still running. It's here: >> @longlivebeetlejuice <<
