Local businesses, thrifting and DIY forever !!!! I cannot stress enough that when people buy all their stuff from fast fashion brands and Amazon and shit you can tell, and they look like sellouts the best alternative accessories are from local businesses because they regularly specialise in stuff like that so they get the good shit in, thrift/charity shops because itβs the most sustainable option and you can often find more expensive items at cheaper prices, and DIYING of course because itβs completely unique and you can make it exactly how you want it! The possibilities for spiked bracelets and chokers are endless with a bulk pack of spikes bought off the internet and some old jeans and belts !!!!Β

thrifted jewelry, Claire's, and also literally finding and making stuff. Like I legit just found some chain and I cleaned it and turned it in to a choker. like if you can find stuff and make stuff it's usually way cooler and more emo. tbh my friends help me a lot though. if you can order beads online or from a craft store you can make Kandi and if you can order/buy chain or like random stuff from the hardware store its all cool

I normally check Depop every now and then, and i diy my stuff too with either patches or fabric paint on plain t-shirts
If you check Groups i made a easy way to find stuff under the name "Scene Depop Finds + Links"
in case you dont wanna manualy look yourself :D
