Thinking of going to Whitby Goth weekend and want to wear red lipstick...

[Curiousmama]

Anyone know of one that stays on? Also any tips on Goth-wear appreciated?
I'm not a goth but my friend gets dressed up for this and I really fancy going. She'll help me but be nice to hear other's ideas

Oooh you've got lovely hair

you look great

I was an old-school goth and always wore bright red lipstick. Outlined in black though IIRC. I have a Chanel lipstick now but could never afford that at the time!

Just looked at your pics, DH (also ex-old-school goth) asked if that was how you normally look, which shows you must have got it right - some 'real' goths look like they're in fancy dress IMO.

Hope you have a great time!

Thanks for the compliments

I could easily look like this all the time to be honest as am quite an outgoing person. My hair-colour is natural but am going to put a semi-permanent on it to darken it slightly for the weekend.

Photos look lovely!

Are you going to the official Spa event or just hanging out around Whitby?

(Oh & yes you can buy a Rhombus CD - Rhombus

You can't miss us really - dh is the big bloke in the hat, I'm er, the big lass with the long black hair...probably wearing black

ooh you look good! I need an excuse to get all Gothed up again

Meet us there Kaloki?

Thanks Raven AK, I'll get the cd and look out for you although think you need a sign saying hiya CM Although you know what I look like so you have an advantage I'll try to recognise your dh though if we go in there. Do you pay entrance?

Not in the day - £45 for a weekend ticket if you want to see the bands in the evenings, but there's stalls & so on in the day time.

Official Website

thanks ravenAK.

The dress is on it's way. Corset my friend bought me was too big in the cups. I'll get a look of some sort together I'm sure?

The dress has arrived! It's lovely and looks like it'll fit Only thing is it's very long, I'm 5'8" and it's long for me so am going to have to find some high heels if I wear it for WGW.

Hi there i and my hubby and my kids have bought tickets for the november whitby goth festival tho this will be my our time there. everything is set to go for then but. there is one question i cant seem to get any answers for one question : i know children are allowed to the festival but does my 3yr old son need a ticket or are children under a certain age free? i would be grateful if someone could help me on this thanks a bunch. :)

Why don't you send an email to the organisers via the Whitby Goth Weekend website?

cool thanks for that. but we did try and no answer. i was hoping someone who has children themselvs may know and help me out. this seems to be a question noone seems to know the answer to surely there must be just one person out there/ would be most grateful. tried everything to contact someone who would know. so far no joy.

I like the idea of wearing something like an old wedding dress and chunky boots.
