20 Dark Academia Outfits! *with a vintage twist*

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hi!!! If you want to check out thredUP and save 30% off of your first order, head to: bit.ly/thredUPjan21_RACHEL and use my code "RACHEL" :)
So this past year's definitely been a tough one as far as motivation to uh... even get dressed. I wanted to dust off the 'outfit' part of my brain, and try to make 20 different "Dark Academia" outfits. Outfits that say, "I am ready to cram-study for a test in a dusty, dark old library", y'know? ANYWHO, here ya go! I tried my best, hopefully I got the 'aesthetic' right on at least SOME of them XD
I love you all!!

    This was my signature aesthetic for most of the last two decades. I called it my _eccentric country squire_ look most of the time, because the "dark academia" label hadn't been invented when I started dressing this way. Recently my aesthetic has evolved into an ecelectic mashup of academia + natural-kei + cottagecore.☺️💕

    Okay so Rachel, I've had this idea for a while; and if I was a KZreadr I would do it but, I am not.🙃 so am I handing it off to you, to do with as you please. 👍 so the idea is you take pieces of paper, you put aesthetic keywords on them; such as Edwardian, dark, light, goblin, cottage, whatever they are put them on paper. Separate them into nouns and adjectives, then put them into two different hats. you pick one from each of them, combine them into a name of an ✨aesthetic✨, then make an outfit inspired by it. It's similar to your made-up aesthetic video, just a bit more controlled I guess.😅

    I also had art history in high school, and I had to cram too. Just, for two weeks before the test instead of a day, bc my tests had not only the title, date and author, but also authors affiliations and patrons, symbols and sources, period-specific terms and techniques and the city the piece is in/comes from. Aaaaaand a test could cover anything from 500 to 3500 pieces (paintings, drawings, architecture, sculptures, installations) at once. I loved those classes to bits but I am still shocked that I actually crammed about 9000 artworks into my brain over those three years.
