How do a be more girly and likable without changing who i am?

i love wearing black and people say i look emo. i love dressing like that but i want to dress a little more girly but not wear the colors, since i hate colors. what would look best on me? i am a little over weight. i have big thighs, strong calfs, wide but not fat stomach, big arms and huge chest. please help me figure out good clothes that would look great on me, make me look girly but i still want to wear all black and dark makeup. dont tell me to wear colors, cause i wont. sorry its so long.

if you want a more girly look, wear more formfitting things...
something that shows off your figure, because that's how you can look more feminine. you don't have to wear colors.

Try maybe a more feminine top, like something a little lower cut or with lace. You can try pairing a more form fitting top with an empire waist belt (in black of course). You dont need colour :) Keep in mind though, girly isnt neccesarily "likeable". It's your personality that needs to shine :)

i just wanted to start out by saying that i LOVE BVB they r the best n im happy someone like me reads seventeen!!! I'm not all that girly and last year i was verry emo gothic looking! my advice is SpArKlEs!thare crazy girly but not colorful! around the eyes, on the nails, & eather clear or sparkily lipgloss are all good places, & to show off ur boobs body glitter! haha just dont go over board because it looks strange if you ware to meny sparkles and never ware sparkles and seqins because you'll look like a bisco ball... but i didnt think ud like sequins any ways! srry rellllllly long!

Okay,
1. DO NOT change anything about yourself for someone else. If they don't like you for exactly who you are, they do not deserve you. But if you really want to make a few small changes for YOURSELF that's okay.
2. If you wear some stuff with black lace it'll instantly make you more girly without making you uncomfortable.
3. It's more about you atitude than your looks; putting a smile on will make you seem more aproachable. Don't stand with your arms folded, it makes you look grumpy. Don't be afraid to start conversations with people you have never talked to. You have nothing to lose and for all you know you could make some new friends. Fake confidence even when you're feeling insecure, it makes you more attractive to people and makes you feel better about yourself.
4. Next time someone calls you emo, roll your eyes and explain to them that emo is short for emotive core. It's a type of music, not a type of person. And it doesn't mean emotional because everyone has emotions there for every one would be emo.
5. Never be ashamed of who you are, if someone doesn't like you, screw them. It's not their life.

an empire waist or babydoll shirt make ur waist look smaller making u look thiner. i'm a little over whieght to and i have a dd chest. stay away from super tight leggings cause they might make ur thighs look bigger then they r. things that r flowwy can look girly, but be caurful cause they can also make a chest look bigger. u can stay in black but mayby some shades of gey might look nice to. idk if ur an onley black girl, but shirts that r black with colors look really pretty. hope this helps!!!

If you love dressing a certain way, then you should dress that way... Ignore what people say. They're all useless. You needn't listen to them.
