[@LadyAhro]

Dark Academia is probably the closest aesthetic to my own personal style (Sorceress inspired maximalism, an elevation of a Witchy clothing aesthetic that I threw out into the reddit/Pinterest aether an age back) although the similarities aren't huge.

[@ellapastoral]

the outfit at 6:11 is my favorite it's such a power outfit ...what is that glitch effect you always used called?

[@StyledByKhatia]

Glad you liked it! If you're referring to the numbers in the intro, I usually search "film leader overlay" on KZbin and download the version that appeals to me the most. If you mean the grain effect I just search "vintage grain overlay"!

[@ellapastoral]

Styled By Khatia yes it’s the grain overlay I love it when you use it

[@renrose2386]

I prefer dark academia

[@reee2420]

you kinda look like anne hathaway

[@dyloak6450]

LIght Academia is so much nicer, but Dark Academia is easier to pull off and resonates with mentally ill people more.
