The Hottest Trends in Emo Tattoos

Emo is all about showing your emotions on your sleeve. It is hard to show emotions in your clothes and shoes, but tattoos are the perfect way to let the world know who you are and what you care about. Emo tattoos are not the tattoos of the typical biker or skater. Knowing the trends in tattoos will help you stay ahead of the crowd and achieve that total emo look.

Many emos like to have stars tattooed on their forearms. This is pretty typical for guys; this isn’t really a trend for the girls, as they like to have stars put on the backs of their necks. Usually, the tattoos are just outlines of stars and aren’t filled in.
Since emos tend toward the intellectual side of things, tattooing the line from a favorite poem is a great way to “wear your emotion on your sleeve”. Some emos like to have stars tattooed around the words. Hard-core emos get very large tattoos across their chests or “sleeve tattoos” that cover the area from the wrist up to the elbow. These tattoos can reflect anything that is important to the emo and that tells the world what they are about. Shoulders are another popular place for emo tattoos. Again the tattoo is personal and while hearts, stars and skulls are popular, pretty much anything goes as long as you can explain how it reflects who you are. Be creative when designing your tattoos. The more unusual the tattoo, the more comments you’ll get.

Trendy Fashion Tips for Emo Girls 2009, 2010

It’s back to school time and your mom is nagging you to go shopping for some new clothes. She so totally doesn’t get the emo look and you are trying to be patient, but it’s hard. Use the word “TAJ” to help her understand. “T” is for thrift store, “A” is for accessories and “J” is for jeans.

First of all, tell mom you need a trip to the best thrift store in town. You need a thrift store that is going to have tons of clothes from the 80’s. “Alligator” golf/polo shirts and cowboy shirts are staples for emo dressing. Vintage t-shirts with big print drawings are a great find, so grab any of those you see.

Accessories are so important to emo style. Belts with the most ridiculous buckle you can find are so in this fall. Depending on your piercings, the more metal the better as far as emo accessorizing goes.

The last piece of the basic emo wardrobe is a pair of skinny jeans. Preferably black, skinny jeans are such a part of emo style that it would be best to have a couple pairs of them. To change things up a little, high water pants are cool, too. If you spot a pair of those at the thrift store, grab them too.

Being patient with your mom will go a long way in having her get on board with your emo styling. Give her enough info and she might even have fun helping you shop!

Doing Emo T-Shirts - 2009-2010 Emo Style Edition

Part of emo style is showing the world what you are all about. How you dress is a great way to creatively describe the inner you. The trendy emo way to do this is to wear shirts with different logos or sayings printed on them. Vintage shirts from the 80’s are the understated way to dress in emo style. You can find lots of emo T-shirts all over the web. Some of them have hearts, others of them try to describe what emo is, and some of them have emo band logos on them. Most are black, but if you are trying to get that trendy contrast with black skinny jeans, you can easily find pink emo T-shirts. Those work well with the current emo trends.

The best place to find emo shirts that aren’t T-shirts is the thrift store. If that isn’t working for you, then look for plaid woven shirts at the mall. For the fall, these plaids should be primarily pink, red, turquoise, or, of course, black. Sweatshirts with hoods are another good find. Even better are corsets for the girls and vests for the guys. These are totally hot emo looks for the fall. The most popular corsets and the vests seem to be black. Guys should wear a black T-shirt under their vest. Have fun working on your emo look by having a variety of different shirts and hooded jackets. Several shirts and a pair of skinny jeans will give you an emo look that you’ll never get tired of!
