HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM CUTEST CAT IN THE WORLD, SCOTTISH FOLD BASIL FARROW. TORONTO GOTH FASHION & NIGHTCLUB GUIDE.
Happy Thanksgiving, spooky kids! I’m very grateful to have my baby bear, Basil Farrow, in my life. As you may know, I stole him from Mia Farrow while at her house for Thanksgiving, a little while back…
Will you be gathering with family today? Cooking up a storm? I have several adorable and healthy Thanksgiving recipes in my book, Cute Yummy Time. Such as pecan tarts that look like baby turkeys — kawaii!
No nose, no ears, no eyes… and now, no limbs or tail. There are more photos of my Scottish Fold cat on his blog and Facebook. And you can see him rolling around on the ground in his YouTube videos.
I can’t wait to show you the h.NAOTO collaboration: it’s looking better than I could have imagined. Very good things are afoot… get ready, pirates! The end of the year is going to rock.
Finally, my new Lip Service Global Gothic column is out. I interview Taeden, designer of Gloomth (the pirate Victorian clothing I’m wearing above) about Toronto Goth fashion, clubs and lifestyle. What do you think of her suggestions?

You are amazing!! I loved your goth cooking lessons :) x
does basil ever have diva moments and refuse to be photo’d? XD oh and why did you call him ‘Basil’? just curious. :3
Nope, he loves to model. He pouts and opens his eyes wide – he’s a pro. Loves to be filmed too. Many more pics on his blog http://www.lacarmina.com/basilfarrow and vids on his YouTube http://www.youtube.com/user/lacarmina
His aunt Malone named him Basil. He originally lived with Mia Farrow’s family, hence the last name. :)

Hello Darling Basil, What a wonderful cuddly boy you are!! So so gorgeous. xxxxxx
Hurray! I can comment now.
The goth scene in Toronto these days seems to be in it’s purest form at either an EBM or Fetish event. More so with the Fetish events because with EBM there isn’t as much of an emphasis on goth style/fashion, and you can find people just walking around in regular-ish clothes.
Aside from those two staples of goth events, there are a lot of mixing with other sub-cultures; rave, anime, psychobilly/rockabilly. You can see a lot of the same people kicking around a rave as you would at Anime North (toronto’s anime festival) or a Matadors or Nekromantix concert. These same people tend to go to some of the goth events around Toronto as well. Although it might be something that would combine these cultures, the best example to come to mind would be Darkrave.
Something else that deserves mention is what I guess you could call the Retro, contingent of goths. The older goths, which the article mentions, tend to be grouped into a “retro night” type of scene than a goth scene. Not too many young goths/sub-culture people attend these events and it tends to attract more people enticed by the kitschy 80’s feel. The crowd there tends to be old enough that I (being 21) am considered super young. When you put that in contrast to Darkrave, that has all age events that draw big crowds, it’s very interesting.
There! I’m done with my super long post.
Oh! And we have a VK scene, where everyone hates everyone else.
Very interesting! I’d love to check it out. Hahah sounds like any other scene, where everyone hates each other >_<
Well you should come down to the biggest Canadian goth town, but your LA self may freeze to a big block of ice. Either way.
