I spend lots of time on the internet, and I noticed that most people interested in subcultures such as Goth, Emo, and Punk have a hard time finding affordable, but still cool looking clothes. So that's why I decided to make a post about budget shopping.
I'm going to make 3 complete outfits (exept shoes) with each a maximum prize of 50 euros (which is about 65 dollars or 35 pounds). Hope you like 'em!
For the Goths on budget
Okay, I think this worked out really well. You see, the black top is long and stretchy so it usually gets worn as a short dress. It looks great with the black lace top, and of course lace is a true Goth must-have. The striped panty is something you often see on Goths.
Also, really, every Goth needs a few necklages with pendants like bats, skulls, ankhs, crosses or a raven. I know how cheesy this might be, but they're just awesome.

For the Emo's on budget
When I hear 'Emo' I think of black combined with bright colours. And that made me think of the Cupcake Cult, a collection of shirts from Poizen Industries, which has loads of awesome shirts. I own three shirts myself, and I love them.
The yellow hoodie comes in diffrent colours, but the yellow matched the shirt so that's why I picked yellow.
Jeans are very simple, but comfortable and Emo's can often be seen with skinny jeans.
You can easily make this look a bit cooler with bright coloured gloves, accessoires and nail polish, but if I had to add those things I would gone out of budget. And I guess everyone has bright or black nailpolish.

For the Punks on budget
Gosh, making a Punk outfit under 50 euros was pretty hard, actually. But, I managed to make one.
I saw the dress and thought 'Hey, leopard is pretty punk.' and, honestly, I am right. Punks often wear leopard. I do as well. Leopard is cool.
Also, of course this outfit needed studs and spikes -we're talking about Punk here, after all- so obivously I used a spiked and a studded bracelet.

I hoped I helped you guys with some ideas. I also hoped you liked the looks, and good luck on your next shopping trip!
See you next time,

Btw, do you know in which colors the leopard dress comes except green? Green looks awful on me. Anyways, awesome outfits♥ lovelovelove♥
Ik vind de goth outfit echt geweldig! die zou ik zo aan doen zonder de ketting want daar ben ik niet zo'n fan van x)
