What's your aesthetic

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

What's your aesthetic

What's your aesthetic?

It could be described by what you like to wear, or what you wish you wore, or your favorite book, your favorite colors/combinations, your favorite activities... whatever floats your boat! I thought it might be fun to see how we all see/imagine ourselves.

And, of course, you could also describe what you see another CBer's aesthetic as!

~~~ 

For example,

- I enjoy fantasy worlds, but I generally prefer well-crafted stories based on fairy tales over dragon epics with lore a mile deep.

- I wear a lot of forest and olive greens because a) it's like, the best color to wear as a redhead, and b) I love elven/fairycore stuff. I'm also a fan of solid colors over designs/graphics and into watercolor brights and pastels as well. I much prefer comfort over bling.

- Dark colors. I'm an introvert who likes to remain inconspicuous, yet intriguing. I love a good mystery when I can find one, and even more so when I can be one.

This is super cool! Hopefully I do this right!

 

- I'm loud. And talkative. Honestly, all the kids in my school (sixth grade starts middle school for me.) think that I'm quiet, except for my math class (I'm very loud there). I guess I'm either being shouted over or not I'm interested in the other kids or I'm doing my work. I am also a rule follower.

-I'm kind of the kid that doesn't care what anyone thinks, unless it's my friend. I'll like something even though nobody else likes it (until I find out that some other awesome human being does, which is great). I like being the only one. 

- Jwyn gave clothes, so.... I wear a lot of things? I don't have a specific style, just kind of unique. I LOVE wearing accessories, especially, well, unique ones, like a belt I made myself or earrings from a book ( based off a book character, that is). I like to draw people and design clothes, so...

Talking about other people's "aesthetics" :D

- Jwyn, based on your post, I think your general vibes are like ... uh, one of the moorland fae folk, who enjoy dealing in magic and mystery. Or like–an elven dragon-rider. With lots of greens. And ... I'm going to go out on a limb here, and say you like copper over gold/silver?

- Milly! I'd say, maybe something like kidcore? Like, hold on, trying to describe it. Um, like that one super cool skateboarder, who kind of mixes every style. Or someone who can pull off double braids. Yes, those oddly specific vibes. And also handmade gloves. Very, very oddly specific.

- I probably like really summer-y clothing, mixed with trendy clothing. And also lots of bright colors! So uh, if I'm self-describing, I'd probably say I have the vibes of a sparkly girl next door. And also I have the vibes of a flute player, I guess, because my band teacher has mistaken me for one twice?

~ Pastels with black = perfection. Nobody can say otherwise. [you can, it's just me being aggressive since it's a tad bit late for someone who woke up at 4am to go to the beach (hey, 4AM! Derivakat!)]

~ fantasy. Not dragons, something deeper. Like, faes, and fairies, and sprites.. 

~ Death. Death, death, death. Death is your reward. Death is amazing. 

~ Debate. Ah, debate. My beautiful life source.

~ sad/depressive yet energetic songs. [I have a playlist of 45+ songs, and I will share every single one of them.]

~ AGGRESSIVENESS >:D; I guess I would be scary? Like, I'm scary in debate terms...and in cx terms...[cx means crossfire, which is the questioning period in debate.], and I'm not super scary irl. 

~ My friend's descriptions of me. "*irlname* is kind of chaotic, she loves shipping. She's...dramatic at times, and she's a really nice and good friend!"  "....One word. One word. Well, two. Chaotic and dramatic." "She's either Misery or Confusion, because she's sad 24/7 according to moi, and she loves confusing all of us. If she's mad, she's Chaos. Literal chaos. She will shout at you and furiously interrogate you until you are a mental pancake." "*irlname* in a nutshell: crazy tall, chaos, drama, sadness, confusion....that's all, really."

~ My description: Not a very nice person unless I've known you for 2+ months. Social anxiety. Tries to be dramatic and poetic, kind of chaotic. T E M P E R  I S S U E S. Uhh...Nothing else, really. Oh, kind of shy.

~ Bisexual and Asexual. Enby. 

~ Copper+Gold = Life

I have no idea what my aesthetic is... I don't even know what types there are. Can someone tell me what they think of my stuff?

 

- I can be kind of a tomboy, I guess. For example, I skateboard, play video games, and read comic books.

 

 

- I love art and, despite the words above, enjoy looking at pretty photos, paintings, and statues and I like visiting museums.

 

 

- I love reading fantasy books, watching shows about made up things, and daydreaming and writing.

 

 

This is a pretty mixed up style... Sorry.

No need to apologize! Everyone has at least a few different parts to themselves. I contradict myself constantly! That's what this thread is for; Describing the different pieces that make up you. They don't have to make sense. :D

Hm...Let's see...I think I would likely say:

-I. Love. Fiction. Like, anything remotely related to fantasy books. Harry Potter, Keepers of the Lost Cities, Land of Stories, that sort of stuff. And I also am crazy about science fiction. Time travel books have a special place in me, along with books like Children of Exile which is a book where a can't quite think of the category and can be a tad bit scary. That makes me think...

-I enjoy scary things. I like scary books, especially murder mysteries or those books with short gruesome stories. I am interested in pandemics/epidemics (timely, isn't it?) and enjoy learning about premature burials, plagues, and sickness in general.  

-I think the internet is amazing. I am on it quite a lot, usuallly for school (when I still had it), yes, but I also work on writing one of my two stories very often. I think it is amazing how far technology has come, and since the pandemic started, I've kinda become obsessed with it. You know I have when one of my best friends says that I talk about digital stuff all the time.

-I don't really know if I'm an introvert or an extrovert. I love to talk talk talk to my friends, but sometimes I get a bit flustered when I'm in a large crowd. Usually if you give me a few minutes though, I'l be back on my feet and ready to communicate - or at least I will to the less out-going ones.

Well, there is my aesthetic! I'm not totally sure if I did this right, but here it is anyway!

My ~aesthetic~ is: 

the air just before a rainstorm, the smell of new books, the tapping of rain against glass, ice cream with chocolate syrup, rough cut gems, that time of day before night and after the sun sets, magenta&blue&yellow (pansexual flag colors!), the sound of mechanical pens clicking, the flipping of pages, the sound of someone typing, the kind of water that is clear and still, silver chains, ping-pong paddles, black and white vans, earbuds~ 

Does this make much sense? Not at all :)

-rainbow socks with shorts that look like denim but really aren't or black leggings, a slightly too big grey t-shirt under a bright blue flannel and white sneakers because i was too lazy to find my boots and anyways i wouldn't want to get them dirty[er]. 

-a desk so messy it stresses me out to look at but I still have 0 motivation to clean it up

-sixty gel pens in chromatic order

-furiously typing out poetry at 8:30 PM which is also unfortunately my cue to "gO gEt in BEd" though lights out isn't til 9:00, so the amount of unfinished poems in my doc is ridiculous-

-starting knitting projects and getting 90% done with them and then completely losing all motivation

-always early or late. I'm never on time. fortunately, I'm usually early.

-#shyextrovertsunite! 

-*gives up on having good capitalization e ve r again because no caps is prettier*

- SPeLLinG ANd gRaMMAr aRe imPOrtaNT tHanK yOU vErY mUCh 

-I own less than fourteen t-shirts, less than fourteen pairs of pants, less than fourteen pairs of shorts, and less than fourteen long-sleeved t-shirts. this was completely my choice, though sometimes i regret it a little XD

-no lols.

eVER.

-cursing is not something i condone, and i will be immature about it, especially if you do it in front of sMALL iNnoCEnT cHILDreN

-I am absolutely your mom friend and sometimes I think that if I wasn't there most of my friends would somehow manage to blow themselves up. (though maybe i'm underestimating them XD)

-i read way too much fanfiction and am properly ashamed of myself for it. (doesn't mean i'm not going to keep doing it, though-)

-m i n e c r a f t

-has to sleep with a light on because there's real monsters under my bed and if i'm surrounded in darkness the demons will come :)

-cropped black sweatshirts over rainbow long sleeves

-*yells in enderman*

-ridiculously self-conscious & has severe camera shyness

-memory issues/tends to forget really small important things/head is filled with so many thoughts its hard to focus

-if someone under 14 curses my discomfort level goes crashing through the ceiling- they say im 'pure'/'sensitive'/'an innocent mind'

-closeted ace enbylesromantic who doesn't care about gender

-hasn't had any close friends ever so is v e r y awkward in social-friend-situations

-commitment issues and SUPER picky ,:D

-struggling author & failing artist

-motto: 'words are hard.' mixes them up, pronounces them wrong, scrambles their places, and can never find the right ones, which makes conversations very hard

-capitalization can die in a hole

Hmm.

- I love fantasy, especially ones with intricate worldbuilding details, interesting characters, lore and history behind things.

- I feel like this falls into 'aesthetic'. I prefer brains over brawn, but actually think agility and speed is a cooler fighting tactic (in stories anyway) - like a house cat as opposed to a dog or a lion.

- Denim is my favorite pants/shorts thing, but not skinny - either stretchy or looser. Definitely comfort over fancy. Blue and purple are my favorite colors, and I like cool green/blues way better than red/orange/yellow.
