Pastel Goth is a sub-trend to the goth subculture which was started in the United Kingdom during the 1980s and spread to many parts of the world. As you know, people who follow this culture wear black clothes, dark lipstick, black nail lacquer, etc. Pastel Goth (also goes by the names nu goth and soft grunge) has emerged, attracting the attention of a lot of young people around the world. The words pastel and goth are clearly two contradicting terms, and as the name pastel goth suggests, this new drift is defined by the replacement of traditional dark-colored outfits, makeup, accessories, etc. with ones that have lighter hues. This fashion fusion looks very promising, and if you want to jump on this pastel goth bandwagon, read and find out these 12 easy ways to become one!
7.Jewelry
Some goths who are fed up with their dark appearance have started this nu goth movement recently. Their idea is that one can still be a goth by heart while not looking like one, with black outfits, pale skin, and spiky hair. As a pastel goth follower, you don't need to look bleak like a traditional goth, and you are allowed to wear jewelry or other fashion, hair, head, and wrist accessories. Purchase jewelry that has skulls, skeletons, or spikes and studs on them. Whatever you buy, make sure they are either dark or pastel in color and have that element of spookiness to them.
8.Handbags
Buy handbags that have the shapes of a bat, coffin, gravestone, unicorn, reversed cross, 666, or other satanic/cult figures printed on them. Handbags aren't a necessary element of soft grunge style, but having them as a part of costume boosts your appearance. Hey, don't carry a random handbag or wallet while dressed as a pastel goth. Buy a crazy-looking handbag; you can find a lot of them during the Halloween season. Now that the Halloween is gone, you may find them only on online shopping websites like Amazon or eBay. If you are not willing to purchase any new handbag, a black or dark-colored bag works as a good substitute.
9.Body Piercings
A goth without body piercing doesn't look like he/she belongs to the culture! Goths usually have their ears, nose, tragus, tongue, etc. pierced. When it comes to pastel goth style, the body piercings style remains more or less the same. A pastel goth is expected to have a few piercings on their body. If you don't have body piercings already, you may get one on any of the body parts mentioned above. A pastel goth without body piercing looks incomplete, so seriously think about getting body rings or studs. If you are newly getting them, don't forget to weigh in the advantages and disadvantages of body piercings.
