mix and match. if you like the rocker type look then don't shy away from buying hot black boots (always with a heel, even a small one) and pair that with something preppy...like a stylish skirt (Im thinking something designer - esq). Just have fun with your style. As long as you are happy with how you look (and of course appropriately covered) then you are perfectly cool.

I agree. Labels and stereotypes are in fact, overrated. I think you should just be yourself instead of trying to 'go' for another 'type'. Ill assume you might end up having to fake a personality. I don't know. Be yourself. :3 People should love you for who you are. Not for what you want to be.

Either way, if you want my opinion though if you're going to chase a stereotype, I would go with Punk. Approximately 80% of preps at my high school gets some horrible disrespect. Its your choice. I would go on a decision based on the looks of the stereotypes, and what other people will think of you...

1st off, punk doesn't wear black everything
you might want to look them up, you're nothing like a punk
they are an actual subculture

Emo
From my recourses supposedly an Emo was originally just a slang word used to describe some bands that got emotional, originally fans of Fugazi(basically Emo being short for emotional), a post punk band, in mid 1980's. It later became a sub-genre. Most found it offensive disliked being labeled Emo. The original Emo is what is now modern day screamo, there were 3 waves. I believe the second wave some how led to the third wave which is modern day. It was basically when new music was cropped under the labile Emo Such as Weezer such. Origonally thick glasses plad shirts were common in the style along with fringed bangs hair. In modern times the fringed hair is still quite common but it now in style to wear black, tight jeans usually a band t-shirt or some type of design. But if you look hardenough you can tell the style is still kinda related to Punk.
During the third wave of Emo it became common for people to slit their selves to 'fit in'. How that works out I don't know. Note: not all Emo's slit themselves.
Emo is not a subculture, it's still a subgenera. Rumor has it, however, that a movement is being made to make it one
In my honest opinion Emo is not based on a solid foundation enough to say what exactly is is not Emo, specially when it comes to terms of music. The basis of emo has been changed twice except for the one basic Emo is short for Emotional. But when you think of it, how can one not be emotional when it comes to their music? Look at Cradle of Filth-their Dooms Metal, 69 Eyes- Romanti Goth, Amy Lee- Plasti Goth, a lot other musicians.
But hey, from what you're telling us you're best bet is a modern day emo

just be yourself for crying out load
do what you feel is right
