That Wordpress theme that animates snow over the blog background and the posts? NOT GOOD for migraine-prone insomniacs. "Why are there little white dots floating across the screen?! Am I more tired than I thought? Warning signs of a migraine? Am I hallucinating?"

Neon-colored skull-print tutus and such
Peeps, if you want to wear those things, do it. Rock on with your fluffy neon selves! Just ... there is NO One True Goth Style, okay? Not TradGoth, not Deathrock, not Gothic Victorian, not Cyber, not Pastel  Goth ... NO ONE TRUE STYLE. There are personal preferences, but none of us under the shadowy cloud of Goth gets to dictate what everyone should and shouldn't be wearing.Â
(Waaaiiiit a minute. I just wrote about this on Gothic Charm School.)
For me? The aforementioned neon-colored skull-print tutus and paint-splattered leggings covered in inverted crosses will make me tilt my head in a very quizzical fashion, and they're (probably) not things I'd ever wear. But I'm not going to tell someone they aren't a Goth if they want to wear those things.
honeyed commented:
I’m super confused about this trend because I could have sworn 6 months ago most of the stuff people are calling Soft Grunge people were calling Nu-Goth.Â
LOL I CANNOT KEEP UP WITH THE YOUTH AND THEIR WACKY FASHIONS.
Some other people have also informed me that Soft Grunge = Nu-Goth = Pastel Goth, and so on. Which makes me roll my eyes, gesture wearily with my tea cup (but not spill any tea), and comment "Back in MY day, they all would have been called "alternative"".Â
Tho' I will also comment that I think that out of that collection, Soft Grunge wins for most ridiculous name. It also encapsulates a lot of the "look" that is featured by models for most of the Etsy stores in the vintage section that fill me with ElderGoth annoyance.
(Look, for the LAST TIME, Etsy sellers: the stylistic markers of 90s Goth did NOT cross over with the stylistic markers of grunge. Yes, there were those of us who listened to all the music, but anyone trying to mix the two fashions was met with pitying looks at the very least. Stop with the blanket keyword spam!) </cranky ElderGoth>
We need an Etsy keyword bingo card
We really do. Because I just found a listing with a title and keywords including "80s 90s Goth / Steampunk / Grunge / Rockabilly/ Floral / Plaid", which I think means I would win Etsy bingo. I shudder to think what the prize might be.
Oh bless. There are "fashion" blogs complaining about "the kids" wearing vertical b&w stripes, and how they should just knock it off unless they really are Beetlejuice. I think I'll wear one of my b&w striped blazers today, because I CAN.Â
Also, I am ALL FOR the proliferation of b&w vertical-striped clothing, and I feel that this is another case of some people getting cranky when something becomes popular. Yes, yes, I'm sure you liked it before it was mainstream. Now be a love and go fetch your Auntie Jilli some more tea, hmm? #amusedElderGoth

Dear Etsy sellers: Please do not combine the keywords "Beetlejuice" and "steampunk". It makes my head hurt, and I still do not have an appropriately gothy fainting couch to retreat to.
