I really wanted to embrace my inner fashion witch in high school, but cool-goth fashion didn't come in my size. I was usually stuck looking like a teenage business woman with heavy black eyeliner.
But today, in my 20s, I have so many more options, and I can't help but want to relive my teen goth phase. My latest dark fashion find is Witch Worldwide.
Witch Worldwide is an online brand that focuses on witchy attire in all sizes.
There you'll find accessories, dresses, kimonos, stickers, sweatshirts, crop tops, and much more. Sizes run from XS to 5X, and prices start as low as $16 for a pair of crystal ball earrings and go up to $145 for a velvet pentacle kimono.
Fellow Revelist coven member Lauren is joining me for this review; she tried on an oversize coffin sweatshirt in a 5X.
"I cannot stress how much I love this slouchy sweatshirt dress. Typically I am really self-conscious about wearing anything too oversized — as I still sometimes hold on to the irrational 'but-what-if-I-look-too-big' fear. But this piece was so fucking comfortable and looked cool AF with thigh-high boots. I'd probably need to wear biker shorts underneath for IRL use, but overall the quality and design were on point," said Lauren.

"BURY ME IN THESE SHADES," Lauren said after putting them on.
"I never, ever get to wear sunglasses because I am blind without my IRL glasses, but I'd seriously consider wearing contacts so I could rock these shades. The shade hue is strong, the frames are tight, and I looked like a total badass."

This cropped sweatshirt in an XL/2X was another winner!
"This crop was super comfy and absolutely perfect for that in-between fall/spring weather. I maybe would have sized down a bit if I wanted to sexy it up, but overall I was really comfortable with the loose style."

Lauren pulled out her favorite harness bra for this crop tank, but there was one tiny problem.
"I firstly need to express how fucking much I love the design and material. It's so comfortable and perfect for hot days. My only complaint is that I'd have to be extra conscious about the bra I was wearing, as it'd be totally visible due to the deep cuts on the sides."

The deep side cut unexpectedly highlighted her bra.
She had the hardest time with this choker, but it still didn't break the spell.
"It was cute, but a little too thick for my neck. Plus the clasp was velcro and not really adjustable, so that annoyed me."

This halter top is steep for $45, but Lauren loved it despite its bra limitations.
"I love the neckline on this piece, but you literally couldn't wear a bra with it — a huge issue for me and my 44DDD boobs — as the back is pretty open and stringy. However, I wouldn't necessarily NOT buy it, because a sweater or kimono could hide the open back/bra issue easily."

Finally it was my turn to bring out my inner bruja.
I am currently going through a T-shirt dress obsession, and seeing this one had me over the moon. I sized up to a 5X since I really wanted to wear this as a dress. The hem hit right in the middle of my thighs, allowing me to wear this in public but never ever bend over.

After running around the studio ready to cast spells on everyone, I slipped this $30 crop top on.
I had the same issue as Lauren with the deep cut of the underarm, but as long as you're cool with your bra showing, that's not a problem. I would definitely wear this out and about.

For me, the accessories are the main draw of Witch Worldwide.
I was raised by a superstitious mother who wouldn't even let me look at a Ouija board, so these earrings gave me major teen-rebellion vibes. The "feminist" choker was amazing in theory but the band was a little too thick for me.

After seeing how amazing Lauren looked in the halter crop top, I had to give it a go too.
I had a bit of a hard time getting the top to lay flat, but after a few pulls it straightened out.

The open back means you can't wear a bra, but makes it perfect for tanning in the summer.
You could also layer a kimono over it in the fall.
Speaking of kimonos, I'm usually not a fan since they can make me look sloppy. But Witch Worldwide changed my mind.
This only comes in two sizes: XS-XL and XL-4X. I went for their biggest size and fell in love with it.

READY TO CAST SPELLS.
I'm always happy to find a new pair of sunglasses. These are going in my rotation ASAP.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
Witch Worldwide finally made my teenage witch dreams come true. The sizing was great for both Lauren and myself; the gaping arm holes were the only drawback. We definitely recommend Witch Worldwide.
BRB, going to watch "The Craft" in my kimono...
