Fashion styles

I LOOOOVE fashion. Drawing it, looking at others fits online, styling myself and others. But since I like so many styles I’ve been having trouble building a wardrobe T^T

Sure I can mix some of them together and reuse them for other styles, but when it’s something as drastic as ouji and acubi, it gets a little tricky. And clothes can be expensive! Not the mention the SHOES. I could either build a couple of styles at once or really focus in on one. It’s a lose lose bc I’m broke anyway. I thrift when I can and I’m learning to sew so I can just make what I’m looking for instead of spend hundreds on one statement piece. I know others struggle with this and I don’t really have advise. This is more of a rant that I’m too broke to dress cool.

Also I work with heavy machinery and powers tools. I can’t dress all done up with accessories and chains dangling everywhere bc it’s a safety hazard (● ˃̶͈̀ロ˂̶͈́)੭ꠥ⁾⁾ so I can’t even dress up at all at school T^T ugh… such is the life of a fashionable woodworker :(
