Goth at work

Hey...Everyone has got to earn a living! For gothic fashion lovers out there who still want to show their fashion tastes but not get shooed out of the office, Midgie has some ideas for you :) I spend pretty much 5 days a week at the hospital as part of my course. Here are some ideas for goths at work:

1) Keep your jewels at home! Spikes are no-nos in many workplaces, especially if you're dealing with people. I usually get away with cuffs or bracelets with pyramids or thin chains but that's about it.
2) Cut down the makeup! Heavy mascara and eye-liner is common in gothic/alternative fashion, but should be cut down when working. Use a lighter shade on your lips too although you can get away with bright red lippies.
3) Keep your corsets in the closet for the day! If you really need a corset...get a corset belt! I wear mine almost everyday....Corsets are addictive :P
4) Shoes...no goth boots. MaryJane has an excellent selection which is suitable for working goths.
5) I love block colours. I tend to go all black and I do throw in some red and purple. Black is a safe colour. No one complains about it :)
6) Try the gothic Victorian look. Long velvet skirts, some lace and ruffles always look lovely.

Alla behöver förtjäna för uppehälle! Midgie har något uppslag för fan av Gothik mode på jobb :)

1) Förvara din Gothik tillbehör på hem! Spike tillbehör är no-no! Men pyramid, dubbarmband eller armband med fin kedja är bra.
2)Dra in sminket...särskilt ögonsminket. Avända ljus färger på den läppar men klar rödd är bra ändå.
3) Förvara korsett i garderoben!Köp en korsett bälte om kan inte motstå du. Jag bar min korsett bälte daglig :)
4) Mary Jane skor är lampade. Bar inte din Gothik stövlar!
5) Jag älskar svart. Jag adderar rödd och purpurfärgad också. Svart är trygg. Inte någon klagar :)
6) Pröva den Viktorian Gothik stilen :) Spets, sammet och ruffles! Min favorit tyg :) Ser mycket ljuvlig ut.

Here are some examples:
