But yeah definitely pushing for this... dark academia, sorta old money mixed with goth. Definitely and HOPEFULLY it's a forever style. I wanna serve Gomez Addams when I get older at this point lol

I promise soon I'll post pics of each year's style

I feel like now I'm definitely more knowledgeable about fashion than I was 3 years ago where it was the trenches and idk what actually looked good which was ironic for an alleged character designer lol

2025 rolls around, I wanted whimsy in my life. Started to tap into my love for fantasy and the macabre so I wanted to experiment with Whimsigoth fashion. It's tough if your taste is masc-leaning, so I went back to my roots... 'business casual' with a hint of goth, but this time I'm going ALL OUT 💀

Now 2024.. I'm not sure what it is, I think it was me getting exposed to a LOT of 60's and 70's shows at my workplace, but I LOVED the styles of that era so I started wearing a lot of both mod and hippie fashion

I'm slowly phasing them out into secondary styles (you'll know later) but still love it

2023 is when things went crazy. Not really sure what it was, but I was a little obsessed with Y2K streetwear, 80's fashion AND idk what to call this style, but I call it Gen Z pastel pop/maximalism.

This era is the one I actually regret a LOT 💀 At least the Gen Z style cuz the other 2 are okay

Late 2022 I started to like the idea of dressing with color. I was into simple and comfy 'asian' fashion, think Uniqlo. I bought a bunch of plain t-shirts but this time they were colorful... 💀

Now I would NOT wear those shirts outside, I just repurpose them as house clothes lol

My fashion taste changed constantly in 3 years.

2022 I was literally wearing whatever. Not desire to actually dress up. Just imagine plain t-shirts and joggers. Did have 'business casual' fits but simple, not the good kind. Wore a lot of black and considered myself goth with some mall goth pieces

I need to take pics of my fashion fits at some point. Only thing stopping me really is I've been holding off on organizing my room and honestly bad lighting 💀

Also talking a lil about fashion journey so far (no visuals yet sorry)

I wanna make a victorian-esque self portrait at one point (or my avatar Asterios) and hang it on my wall but that means having to learn how to paint in that style 💀

I've spent about $300 for my halloween costume but I don't feel so bad cuz most of it is stuff I do want on my wardrobe lmfao

It sucks that I have to still use that hellsite for engagement cuz people aren't willing to jump ship but I still try to limit my use as much as possible

I've been so bad with social media... 💀
To be fair it's not a bad thing but I keep telling myself I'll like/RT people's works and I just don't

I'm gonna focus on my women characters for a good while once I get started finalizing and rendering out designs

Robin @snakestore.bsky.social · 8d

To be fair all of these dudes have been old characters and I'm just following what amateur artist me from 5-8 years ago was doing

I'm not beating my own sameface twunky white man (with messy hair usually) allegations but I think I'm done making OCs like that for good 😭

I'm so annoyed that one of my FFXIV OCs is just Daredevil from Marvel 💀
Red hair, masked man (in my OCs case, fully armored) and everything

I'm living for people complaining about monster hunter wilds being too hard now when just a few months ago they complain it's too easy
