It's the final count down- dun dun dun dun!

Anyone got some good corp goth inspiration pics on hand? My first pay cheque will probably be going to Modcloth and TaoBao for "acceptable alternative" stuff I can wear into the office. Like I really needed another excuse to buy clothes.

I'm enjoying my last few days of freedom before I start at the Courier-Mail two Mondays from now. I still don't have my grades back, it'd be pretty shit if I'd failed a course right as I'd been accepted into a grad program >_> Life likes to troll me like that sometimes. On the flip side, Kylz, Jess, Caitlin and I are roaming West End for celebratory cocktails tomorrow night which is going to be so much fun! (I'm starting to feel like we're the Sex and the City girls without the prostitution.) I just hope I'll be able to sober up for Harry Potter in the morning X_x



Look at those perky pink anuses. Really puts things in perspective.

Corp goth is more of a way of mind, LOL Just wear all black and brood a lotXD;; I think Voodoo Lulu usually has some corp-gothable stuff, don't they? You can't go wrong with black suits, especially pinstripe ones!

I really want a nice long jacket with big silver buttons that I can affix brooches to and stuff, but like you can do that in this weather ;_; I needs me more high waisted skirts...

What time will you be around? I have a business meeting tomorrow at 3.30 in west end >_> lawlll. But have fun girls!

We're meeting at 6 at 3 Monkeys if you're nearby!

Hm, maybe try one of the other agents? Or e-mail her again? Maybe she's waiting for people to get back to her. TaoBaoSpree has great reviews so I wouldn't givethem the flick just yet.

DOBBY DIES
I laughed while people sobbed.
I like the angst in that HP.
Which sex and the city girl are you? Maybe Carrie because of the journo similarities.
I'm probably Samantha, the whore one.

I'm going on the first weekend of school holidays so hopefully there'll be small children in emotional agony.

Lolol, I need to apply some grease to my chin to acquire a mighty mole in that case. At least Samantha always has awesome stories to tell :D

I was in the giant imax cinema and there weren't even children. Nobody else laughed and I was just snorting and unable to hold it in whenever a sniffle broke lose. Over a shitty 3d ugly character.
There were lots of funny and romantic parts, I enjoyed it more than the book.

Stories like Lawrence of my Labia.

Lawlz, that's awesome.

That sounds like a good remake. Were there camels involved? Also, on a supposedly unrelated note, am I still staying over tonight? Just so I can pack some clothes so I don't reek of gin the next day.

I've been wearing a bunch of my lolita blouses to work. Hell, what I'm wearing now is probably corp-goth. Lolita button up black blouse, black tiered but work appropriate length skirt. Once my boss looked me up and down and assured me he hadn't died, lol.

Black pinstriped shirts and skirts can be really cute for corp goth. Cute victorian inspired black jackets, you know the waist length ones, they can be nice.

Classic lolita stuff has been working for me, my moitie dress. Not gothic, but you could get some stuff in black>

Haha, even paris windows with no petticoats and a black work jacket over top has gone over well, but thats starting to seem a bit too over the top and I do it rarely.

I remember trying to look up pictures on the internet when I started working, but a lot of them are really faily.

Sounds like a great example of urdoinitrite.jpg. I ordered some solid black stuff off TaoBao I should be able to get away with, though it's a tad depressing thinking that my more extravagant attire is now a prisoner of the weekend. Hurr, being an adult and all but goddamn.

Yeah, the pictures are really awful, I did a search before I posted. Not to mention the websites who try and pass a standard pinstripe suite off as corp goth and try and flog it for $300 because ZOMG THIS IS SO SPECIFICALLY GOTH AND NOT AT ALL FROM WAL*MART
