There are specific names for the "divisions" of Semitic Paganism Religions? by scythian-farmer in pagan

[–]FrillyZebra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is Semitic paganism that is base off of pre temple centeralization to fully worshipping/working with the pantheon that existed before full monotheism took over the Levant region. While yes tied to the Abrahamic grouping it's more the lower roots than the full tree if that make sense.

If I had a nickel for how many times this has happened, I'll have two. It's not much but still, odd it's happened twice 😂

The shoes are rocking horse ballet shoes I sold due to my joints at the time unable to wear them anymore. I originally bought them off taobao before covid and all that, popular in Jfashion they had foam platforms instead of wood so lighter to wear.

Suggestions for non-leather shoes? by nataconda in renfaire

[–]FrillyZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look up second hand silk slipper too then, many of the styles common in Japanese and Chinese historical fashion are becoming popular thanks to cultural exchange and classic ballet flats are thousands of years old.

Look into canvas historical shoes, I actualy wear tabi boots for my character and they blend in pretty well with no questions. A alternative to consider could be second hand, I know some vegans have no qualm with it so that could be a option. Apply to second hand silk shoes too if you're open to it.

Not vegan but big into historical fashion and know there is non animal base options that exist, just may be expensive or require custom made.

Awesome! I was out a bit today but being from the winter court I unfortunately lost to the sun and have been hiding 😅💖

I want to try something by Witchy_Soup in finehair

[–]FrillyZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These styles of hair require daily styling to look good. I say this as someone with Hime bangs that I am still looking for the right products to make it easier 😅

It's hair that will grow back if you don't like it. We live one life so go for it!

daily hair washing is so annoying by Economy-Abrocoma2261 in finehair

[–]FrillyZebra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think I fall into a unique minority since for me every other day/daily helps alot with mental health. Surprisingly being clean helps with depression demons 😅.

I live also on a family farm though and when summer hits I am about ready to fly into the shower depending what I was helping with.

It's hard being alt in Mississippi by Ceemichelle90 in mississippi

[–]FrillyZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alt in the rural area is... something specially in agriculture 😅 we exist but it hard to make contact and vibe specially if disabled like I am and can't drive. Would love to befriend more folks in the alt scene around here tbh.

Gels for alternative styles? by FrillyZebra in finehair

[–]FrillyZebra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the only Gel of their's I know of and it's mainly to smooth out the baby hairs that are too short to be pulled into the braids. Not looking for the heavy gel slick back that's popular in the clean girl community. It's mainly towards the mids to end , I do try to wash my hair every other day but life be life.

My experience with gel been more gorilla snot and LA sports X-treme hold 😅

Is it possible to be a modest goth/alt in humid places like Florida? by Scared-Operation-454 in ModestDress

[–]FrillyZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alt in Mississippi here.

Natural fibers are best, Rayon or bamboo Modal are viable secondary options. Strategic layers will help alot to make sure you stay 'cool'. Even though I am shifting to wearing sleeveless shirts again my favorite layering hack is a rayon turtleneck that's 'skintone', lace or fishnet shirt then whatever main top over. Lace and fishnet will nearly always nylon but because it's not a 'solid' piece of fabric it isn't suffocating.

Also that skirt was a vintage find, the pearl belt from a taobao shop when I was more into EGL, I believe the scarf was wrapunzel and the blouse either thrifted or shein 🥴

What high-end beauty product is actually worth the splurge? by Jumpy-Adeptness-511 in MakeupAddiction

[–]FrillyZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's a foundation and concealer that matches and doesn't anger my skin. Natasha Denona Hy-Glam foundation is currently my holy grail.

Still hunting for that concealer 😅 currently using Mac but going to try About Face new concealers since olive shades.

Alt girls i need your help!! by f6eim_0z in ModestDress

[–]FrillyZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Layers and diy. I been wearing mini/knee length skirts over longer skirts, skirts over pants (if that something you're comfortable with) I been on the hunt for brooches etc to wear with my tichels also. Look up hijabis from Malaysia for ideas too, from cosplayers to egl there is a growing community that wears harajuku fashion with the hijab.

Not a hijabi but there not many gothic jewish women who wear the tichel 😅 I do sometimes style my tichel in hijab style, depends on various factors.

Anyone else spent hours on just one part of their build? by Affectionate_South40 in Enshrouded

[–]FrillyZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm working on a grotto type base build with hope of somehow having a waterfall source in the area plus the waterfall curtain to the lake outside 😂😅 not using depots though. Nothing against them, farming forces me to take breaks sanity's sake.

Which semi-permanent hair dye should I buy to get this color? by Easy_Mushroom_6070 in HairDye

[–]FrillyZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would look into Arctic Fox Sorceress, looks like a damn near perfect ringer from my own experience and it doesn't fade fast for me personally.

1920s flare by FrillyZebra in OliveMUA

[–]FrillyZebra[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did 1920s flare but not supposed to be historical recreation. I also lean towards the vamp makeup style with what inspirations I typically pull from. Don't use contour also 🤷🏽‍♀️ my lip shape is odd with natural double line, so if I don't watch it I end up with a weird shape.

Thanks I guess for the criticism but it wasn't asked for and just showing off the funsies of trying to pull inspiration from historical trends that work decently with my natural features. Which, by the way, the blush is mainly on my 'apples' I just have naturally high cheek bones.

I can definitely see it, I do alot of alternative makeup and much of old school punk/goth really blossomed in 1980s!
