How to Look Like a Scene Girl (Tweens)

So you wanna look scene, but you are having some troubles due to the fact that you are still just a "kid." While most scene kids are teens, it is possible to still look scene when you are a "tween". Just read to see how.
Look Like a Scene Girl (Tweens)


Steps

  1. 1
    Decide what form of scene you want to be. You can be practically anything. Wild? Shy? Sweet? Rebellious? Funny? Punky? Unique? Scary? Cute? Pick one or two that fit you as you are now. You can even go with a unique form of scene!


  1. 2
    2
    PersonalityGet into the scene vibe before it takes over your look. You can be a very random if you like. Make sure everyone hears every word you say. Scene chicks are very confident with themselves, so embrace your flaws and know that you're pretty! And don't care what others think about you, just be you and be outgoing. Be original--that's what scene's all about.
  2. 3
    ClothesStart finding some clothes that look scene-ish. For the top, cartoon tees are really popular among scenes.Band Tees are also a big hit. Shirts that say random sayings are really popular, also. At this age, you have an advantage, because you can most likely fit into both girls' sizes and juniors'/women' sizes. Hot Topic is the main place you'd find sweet clothes, but if you still fit into kids' sizes, try Justice. Don't go to any preppy stores,like Abercrombie,Hollister,or Gap.You can also check out thrift stores where you can get amazing bargains. Grab a few hoodies, some plain ones and/or patterned ones look cool. You could also try Four Leaf Clothing, Darkside Clothing, Blue Banana, and more.
  3. 4
    Now for the bottomSkinny jeans are a must! Black and denim are usually the ones available in kids' sizes, but if you're really tall, Hot Topic, Vans, and some more places have awesome colored and patterned skinny jeans that are so scene. You can also wear skirts and colorful tutus.Make sure the skirts don't go below your knees and wear leggings, it's never a bad time, wear your tutu to the grocery store.
  4. 5
    Get the shoes! Some really scene-like shoes are Converse, Vans, and ballet flats in "happy" colors. These include hot pink, neon green, orange, yellow, turquoise, and deep purple. To make your Converse look neat, use some awesome laces! Steer clear of flip-flops, unless you're at the beach or pool.For a more unique look you can grab a white pair of converse and paint a totally random pattern on it yourself!
  5. 6
    AccessoriesRemember those colorful necklaces you wore when you played dress-up as a kid? Remember the corny bracelets with the random colors and chunky beads? Recycle time! Wear them with your new scene attitude. Wear bracelets galore, this means bracelets up and down your arms, and try some cool belts over your shirts. Earrings aren't a big issue, so you can get by with some cool studs.
  6. 7
    Hair! Most people say scene hair MUST be long. That's an over statement. You may want the look everyone else has, but short hair is always cute and funky too. Just get really choppy layers, and bangs. :] And usually, your parents don't mind if you have short OR long hair. Stand out.
  7. 8
    For hair, try clip in extensions (they aren't permanent). Most parents, at this age, will probably not let you dye your hair. Some days, you can put little plastic bows in your hair or tie some ribbons in it. Think silly, cute and colorful. If your parents won't let you dye your hair, talk to them about Kool-aiding it. Kool-aid lasts for 4-7 days, depending on how long or how many times you shower. And it does not damage your hair at all.
  8. 9
    Makeup! Your parents or school may not like the popular, wild scene makeup most scenes wear. Tone it down some and it should do. That means, dust on some eyeshadow in bold colors, like purple, green, yellow, pink, or blue. Try a little bit of eyeliner, but only on the top lid, make it winged a bit going toward your forhead. Just a bit of light pink or clear lip gloss will look nice.
  9. 10
    Music! To be Scene you have to love the music! Some big bands are: Dead To Fall, In This Moment, Arch Enemy, Tokio Hotel, Paramore, Metro Station, My Chemical Romance and all time low ,nevershoutnever, enter shikari, hollywood undead, Black Veil Brides, Asking Alexandria, hyper crush & blood on the dance floor are just SOME good examples of scene bands, try looking up bands like the ones listed!If your parents look for the "explicit" label, try buying the clean versions of those songs (:
  10. 11
    Enjoy your new self, beautiful!

Playing Dress-Up & Connecting with your Tween


Probably the most fun Los Tweens moms and Tweens (we even got one of the dads to join in too!) had at Hispanicize 2012 was playing dress up!  No matter how old we are we still love throwing on feather boas, funky hats, crazy glasses and wild jewelry to pose for photos and so do the tweens.  Check out our photos below and join us!  Grab your tween, dig in the back of the closet for those 80’s clothes you have been hiding or any fun accessories, take a photo and post it on our Facebook page.  We’ll be putting some of our favorites on the site as well!
Saludos,
Katherine and Cristy
