Hi! I’m new to Tumblr- in fact I pretty much just joined yesterday. But I absolutely LOVE your account and I just wanna ask- I really like dark academia and chaotic academia, but I have no idea how to really incorporate it in my life. I can’t decorate my room in a particular academia style, as my parents won’t let me, but do you have any tips as to exactly how I can include dark academia in my lifestyle. I know it sounds confusing, but please answer the best you can!

Thank you SO much!

It's a really great question! A few years ago, I had the same problem as you, but I didn't have the courage to ask questions. I searched on my own, making it a much more challenging task. That's why I appreciate that you wrote about it to me :) Dark academia is a lifestyle; your surroundings don't have to look like aesthetic Tumblr pictures, although it's a nice addition :) Be hungry for knowledge, do your best at school, not for grades, but to broaden your horizons, for knowledge. Try to be like a child, be interested in the world around you, have hobbies, read books, articles, attend extra classes, learn new languages. These can be various topics you immerse yourself in; dark academia favors classical patterns, studying philosophy, Greek, Latin, history, art, etc. Of course, if you want to immerse yourself in this community, boldly delve into these topics, but every field of study, every language, a valuable book also fits into academia. Your style of dress can also make a big difference; by dressing in this style, you immediately resonate with the aesthetics, giving you much more motivation to do "dark academia" things. As for interior decoration, my room doesn't fit this aesthetic either :) But large quantities of books on shelves, on the floor, plants, a poster that fits the aesthetic, candles, candle holders, do most of the work.

You can also try adding old-school activities to your daily routine. Writing with a fountain pen in a beautiful, old looking notebook, experimenting with different coffee/tea brewing styles, and enjoying them in elegant porcelain, with a scented candle nearby and a good book :) Incorporate the art of savoir-vivre into your life; stroll with a book, notebook, and sketchbook to the park, cafe, or library :) I personally enjoyed studying in the library, I am much more productive and motivated to learn and read books that surround me.

MUSIC is also important!! Jazz, classical, or try finding playlists on spotify with this theme. I have one, it's very old but maybe you'll like it :)

This phrase in my language 'to be kissed by a muse' is so accurate and helpful in explaining my inspiration. Because most of the time it's just like a kiss on the cheek, a quick peck on the lips, and I'll write a small scene. And then sometimes my muse is just french kissing me and I'll write a whole novel.
