Hi I'm Lindsey 🙂
My style is rather edgy/grungy. It's very rare that you will ever find me wearing a color other than black. I'll stop wearing all black when they invent a darker color 😉
I've been into alternative clothing my entire life. I've never been into color (besides on my lips, I'll rock a bright blue on them), though I admire the look of pastels.
Some pet peeves and misconceptions about my style is that my personality must fall into a "stereotype". Stereotypes by wardrobe choice just bother me in general.
I don't really have a favorite designer. I like heaps of different pieces from different designers!
My favorite makeup brand is NARS, Makeup Forever, Too Faced and Urban Decay.
I love trying out different scents so I can't just stick to one favorite! I am rather fond of Demetor scents! They have some funky scents that just work!
I have lots of piercings. Aside from my ears, which are currently stretched to 3/4s, my septum, tragus, belly button and tongue are all pierced. I used to have a monroe, lip and nostril piercing as well. And as for tattoos I have six of them, soon to have more. I believe the body is a beautiful, blank canvas and it's one's own decision to choose whether they want to modify it or not.
I am a scorpio 🙂
Hey Lindsey, welcome to the Dark-Side. We have cookies and Nightmare Before Christmas. 😄
I've been looking for a blue lipstick. I tried the OCC lip tar and didn't care for it too much on their own. I mostly use them as a gloss over lipstick. Mind if I ask what you wear?
Portland Black Lipstick Company makes a fantastically pigmented blue lipstick. 🙂
I have their black and I use it over black lip-liner I use to fill my lips in (I'm sure you know that trick). But, if you say the blue lipstick is good, I'll grab some for sure. Thanks!
Melt Cosmetics also has two shades of matte blue lipstick if you're looking for some, the problem is they don't restock often and sell out kind of quickly. Coloured Raine also has quite a few blues!
Melt..googling now. Hot-**bleep**! Buuuuuyyying stuff as we speak.
My blue lipstick is J'Adore Les Levres in Yeti.
Oooh I'll definitely have to check those two sites out! Thanks so much 🙂
Sounds like my kind of place 🙂
I swear by LimeCrime in No She Didn't! It's not as bright as I'd like but I just layer it with a touch of the dark blue shade from the Makeup Forever flash palette 🙂
I like the colors, I question the quality of LimeCrime. A lot of bad business practices, dishonesty and in my opinion scamming is associated with the creator.

Just want to give you a heads up.
I love ModCloth...I'm not an alt-fashionista myself but I love pin-up/vintage/retro clothing!
ModCloth is my go-to for classy girly dresses!
I love ModCloth, too! Especially since they have gotten popular and now often have sale. Though some of the quality I find to be cheap, but their reviewers are great and they have awesome customer service.
Also love Bettie Page Clothing. It's a little pricey, but they have great Black Friday sales. I have two dresses from there, great quality. Here's one:
I used to like their stuff, but the more popular it became...I noticed a dip in the quality. Which kinda turned me off. Not sure if it's changed at all.
Most of their clothing comes from different brands and companies so the quality really depends on those labels. I know all of the Stop Staring stuff is good quality, as are some of the other well known brands. I've had both really good stuff and some okay stuff from MC.
That dress is gorgeous!
Ohhhhh Chupi!! I love this dress!!
Thank you for reminding me of this awesome shop. I used to eye it a lot and forgot all about it after I wiped my computer. It's been re-saved.
Maybe I should post up a list of stores for ladies to reference. Seems like there is a lot of awesome shops to be discovered.
Style: My style is Edgy bohemian with pinup inspirations
How long you've been into alternative fashion: All my life really. I just make outfits that fit my mood.

Some pet-peeves/misconceptions about your style: It's a phase. You can't X and be a real X (wear white/goth; smile, have kids, whatever.) That it's inherently kid un-friendly (I have two kids.)
