A New fashion trend over the past year has been the introduction of GLOW Spirit Hoods or Scoodies.

NOW IF YOU'RE A CANDY KID! THE FINAL ACCESSORY TO YOUR RAVE GEAR IS OF COURSE YOUR CANDY! (KANDI)
Candy, usually beaded bracelets and necklaces, is not to be bought in stores, it is made within the Rave community as part of rave culture.
There are a few brands that are marketing "Rave Kandi" and they are not within the spirit of true Candy Kids! Candy (Kandi) is often made for others as a sign of PLURR (Peace Love Unity Respect Responsibility).
The above is a picture of 2 Candy Kids Taking the Biggest Step of their Life, Marriage!
But Notice how they still wear their Candy(Kandi) as a sign of respect for the community!
Fluffies
For the adventurous girls who like to show off some legs but not too much, Some bootie shorts and stockings paired with some Fluffies is always the way to go:
