I'm so fake xd
I dress all preppy with preppy clothes from preppy stores and I honestly hate it. I wish I had the guts to dress goth(in a tasteful manner of course. I don't wan't to end up like this: ) but I'm too scared that I'll get teased again.
It's funny, I sit in class with my golden tan, blonde hair and my pink clothes listening to my cute little MP3 player that sits in my cute little purse. I look ridiculasly preppy, but I'm listening to Incubus Sukkubus. xd
Are there any like me in here, or am I the only phoney?
If you would be so kind, could you post examples of tasteful goth style that I could wear without worrying about sticking out way too much.

Not a closet goth, but if you want to ease OUT of the pink, you could start just by wearing more subdued tones. Baby steps are always easier. Just figure a way to slide out of one fashion to one you would like to wear.

Closet goth! Actually I have the mentality of a goth. I think about death all the time and I'm really kinda morbid. But I dress, well, however I'm dressing that day. Emo, punk, goth, hardcore kid, ya know. whatever.

Mizer Manakins Not a closet goth, but if you want to ease OUT of the pink, you could start just by wearing more subdued tones. Baby steps are always easier. Just figure a way to slide out of one fashion to one you would like to wear.
I threw myself into preppy style in hopes of making an all-right impression at school when I transfered.
(I was new so I didn't want to stick out too much.)
My Mom's managed to chuck out all my goth clothes from 7th and 8th grade so I have to start all over.

Not particularly, for me.
Also, as a suggestion:
If you ever decide you'd like to dress in a more "goth-y" way, do it gradually. Don't just show up to school one day in all black with panda paint and a grimace. Start wearing darker colors gradually. Move from pink to magenta, to maroon, to crimson. From preppy to upper-class to classy-goth. Et' cetera.
If you make the change too abrupt- and "abrupt" can even mean over the course of a few weeks- people will only focus on the act of the change itself, not its meaning or validity.

There's a happy little Fashion Sticky if you're looking for some advice on that. As for the other question, I think this is more suited in the Life Issues subfourm.

You can wear pink and still be goth, you know smile
But in terms of aesthetics, if you are a christian, I would suggest getting a lovely silver cross pendant (and necklace) first, because that pretty much looks good with anything, IMO. Same with a star of David.
Other pendants such as pentacles and pentagrams could be too drastic of an image shift; they can come later, though, if you are interested in them.
