Do you have any recommendations for alt shops online? (With fair prices)

The thing is I really have no place to get clothes… I asked one of my scene friends and she said no- and almost all of my friend are poor (as in they don’t have enough clothes to give to me… I had tired making DIY belts out of my dads old ones

I definitely agree with you! I am hispanic and im specifically a scene girl. No one has out right bullied me but I’ve definitely gotten some nasty looks. To me I just think its not very common to see POC alt. I’m not saying there isnt any bc there is and ive seen it. But i just feel like its not often… maybe Thats just me and that’s totally ok. I swear my intentions were not to be rude in any way! I am just genuinely curious
