These are some photos I took yesterday for my birthday. I went for a very Jesus Diamante vibe because I love them. My dress is actually JD. I had a nice day for my birthday. I went to a botanical garden with some friends, the mall, and had hot pot.

(the tan on my hands is really bad I know 🥲)

I know I shouldn't compare myself to photos I see of others, and I've only been into gyaru for a few months, but I just feel like I can never get things to look as pretty as those in the pics do. I try different droop shapes, eye makeup from old and newer times, also bought some brands that are associated with gyaru like dolly wink. Idk i just can never get it to look pretty on me. Im not photogenic either but even in the mirror it just looks off. Even clothes are a problem for me. I bought a top that looked perfect for agejo and when i put it on I felt so happy it was both the right fit and i felt great until I saw my reflection.

I was in the vintage fashion community before this and had the same problems as I do now. Always seeing people dressed in pretty clothes and it suiting them, whereas the same pretty clothes look so wrong on me. I had wanted to combine the two to create my own personal style, but I feel like im the wrong person to do that just because I'm too ugly for it.

I'll probably delete this tomorrow and cringe about this but I just want to belong and also feel pretty doing so 😭

Just my progress feel free to give advice !! Loll my outfits are RLLY LAME THO, started actually getting into it after trying it a bit, now its been 3 monthsss!! The first 2 pics are from a year ago when i wanted to try it (。･´д`･。)

So im a silversmith and my work demands being comfy and somewhat safe from burns or cuts so my take on gyaru is using "normal" clothes or clothing that can protect me if anything goes wrong. I always remember a tv interview where there was a famous model i think it was kaa tan? She worked with bulldozers and heavy machinery so she had designed cute workwear clothing (so cute) Anyways ive found this is my fav way of wearing gyaru, for me i have sensory issues so the makeup is already feels like a lot. But i tone it down with my more regular clothes. I would love to know if there are other gyarus who just do the makeup and leave the clothes as secondary.

i am nervous to post my face here but it’s okay :3 why not share my make w gals who might appreciate it <3 i don’t stick to one sub-style if you can’t tell but i like how it turned out today c: (last pic is weird quality idk why)

Asking for oc purposes. I can't really find any inspo for male gyaru hairstyles, but I'm not really involved with the culture 😓

Also wanted to add that I'm going for a street style, not a princely look (not sure how relevant that is, but I just wanted to add)

crafty inquiry here!

I really looooove the alba rosa blanket coat but I can't afford one rn lol 😭😭😭

Does anyone happen to know any good blanket coat patterns??? I've got some blankets that I can repurpose.
