Christmas Shopping for a Goth (on a budget!)

Christmas Shopping for a goth individual can be a challenge. Just because its black doesn't mean its cool...sometimes. But, really! If you really want to surprise your gothic loved one with a nice christmas present, here are a few ideas broken down into gender and age group:

Gothic Girls:

Age 0-8 Girls
(Yes, 8 is young but very possible!)



Some black, fuzzy boots are perfect for the holiday and the weather!




Any Clothing or accessory from Monster High! I think these characters are sooo awesome and adorable! Best part, it fits any age group.


Monster High shirt with some fuzzy boots? YES PLEASE!

*Similar/cheaper items can be found at your local wally world, jsyk*

Age 9-14 (unisex)

**The older they get, the harder it is to buy for them. Keep in mind what they ooze over whenever you take them shopping!**

Hot Topic is THE place to consider when buying for pre-teens, but it can get pretty pricey. I like to check out their website and compare similar articles of clothing to wal-mart's. 

Band T's
Boys and Girls between 9 and 14 are diggin' the band T's!



Simple Studded Belt
Combat Boots

*Even a simple gift card coupled with a promised shopping trip would send a little goth into a jump for joy!

Age 15-18 (Girls)

Perfume Oils
Linked in the photo is a wonderful site filled with gothic themed perfume oils with awesome pricing! If you want to smell a perfume/oil before buying, check your local malls for samples of specific perfumes that may appeal to your young goth.


Jewelry

Makeup


Age 15-18 (Boys)
To start, I would suggest an itunes gift card. Guys need their music like girls need their eyeliner!

Wallet & Chain

Even as simple as this, or check hot topic for more character.

Leather Jacket
Click photo for ebay item.

Black Zip-up Hoodie
Fruit of the Loom zip up hoodie at walmart for less than $15


*And, Of course, a gift card to the guys' favorite clothing store.


I really hope this helps! If you have any questions, PLEASE feel free to comment and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!

Storenvy Favorites (Goth Addition)

Storenvy has my attention! This site is lovely, easy to navigate, and contains some pretty awesome sellers and crafters of all genres.


Here's a list of a few of my favorite items and sellers from storenvy (Thus far). 


This is a coyote jaw all dolled up with paint and feathers. Pricing is just too reasonable and the craft is very unique, indeed!

Another red and black feather accessory I fell in love with, this earcuff is a must for me! 




Wonderful little store with awesome graphic T's for both men and women.


Ah, now this is a wonderland wardrobe! The clothing is pricey, but looks very Tim Burton-esque. The modeling is very creative, too!


Cute acrylic pendants and jewelry to meet all of your creepy needs! Bats and skulls, Please and Thank you!



Keep it up, Creepy Creators! We need MOAR!!
