My name is Remi! I’m a Nonbinary person! I’ve been into gyaru since I was in middle school and really wanted to make this blog to sort of catalog the styles I like n shit!
I really wanna be respectful of the culture and style so I hope this blog can also be a learning experience!
I'm really hope to provide resources for plus sized gal's and everyone inbetween as well as POC gals like me!
And really, it’s so fucking awesome to have an anime girl as a proud gyaru and not like “vaguely western but not really” Momo’s clothes are a STATEMENT and I love it
Sooo I bought the shirt! For reference I seem to be a XXL on their chart. It came super quickly which is really awesome! Shipping for me was like 4 bucks. I think the top looks pretty much exactly like the stock photo.
(note I did not buy a medium that is just what my phone auto selected before I took the screenshot) I think it's a little more flattering on the form they use in the photo. I think one of the issues Is the leopard print on the bust isn't made bigger for bigger sizes so while it covers most of my bust there's just a touch of my underbust that isn't covered in the pattern. Not a big gripe but it's deffo something to keep in mind if you have a bigger chest like me.
The white part over the stomach also isn't quite as flowy as it looks on the smaller sizes however this could be remedied by buying a bigger size. The buttons also feel just a touch costume-y in terms of quality. I do see myself possibly having to mend them back on in the future. As for the sleeves they fit relatively well I do have to adjust them every now and then but that's almost any strapless clothing item whether it be a top or tall socks.
Overall I do really like this top, it's super cute, it fits relatively well I could have probably went up a size!
I found a new online store for gyaru clothing!
Aura*Dolva
They don't have a lot of products currently, but this is really exciting to me as a plus sized gyaru! I deffo intend on buying their featured top the felicia. When I do i'll definitley do a review! I feel like im sort of inbetween sizes but on their tiktok they say the shirt has quite a bit of stretch so hopefully if i choose the smaller size so the arm sleeves fit, my bust will still fit.
do you know any online stores with gyaru style clothes?
So, I'm not 100% on what you're asking me.
i do have some posts about this sort of thing already but if you’re looking for official brands like MA*RS i think the best places are Ebay and other resellers. 😅 Another issue is knowing where to look in your country, looking in the US i imagine is a lot different than Europe or Canada!
both my posts I've done are based on these stores' online shops!
Where I find Gyaru Clothing in the US
Finding Gyaru On ZARA & H&M
If I missed something pretty please let me know or if you want a specific store or if i just didn't understand your question! I love love love helping people <3 XOXO
Could you do ZARA and H&M please for your store requests? Thank you!
Hello friend!!!
So you didn't specify a style which is totally fine because i had a lot more freedom in terms of style and pieces. My goal was to create atleast one entire outfit for one style and maybe even show a few pieces that could be used in other styles.
This is gonna be a long one because I had so much fun so fits under the cut!
Zara ⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾ ⋆⁺₊⋆ ☁︎
I've never shopped at ZARA but from the looks of it it's a lot of very sleek professional wear which presented a bit of a challenge but a very fun one. I can't promise this will be a cheap look because from the looks of it ZARA is a high end store! I actually got to make a few outfits for ZARA!
Outfit 1 Links: Under Blouse - Corset Top - Charm Necklace - Love Belt - Faux Leather Mini - Embelished Leopard Heels
So for this first outfit I had animal print on the brain. The main styles i chose with both these outfits was Ageha/Agejo. I was thinking of chunky charms, animal prints, statement belts and short skirts!
I got this idea to layer a corset over a loose blouse from tiktok, i think its a really cute look and while its not traditional gyaru I think its a pretty updated addition.
Outfit 2 Links: Snake Choker - Lace Mini Dress - Distressed Denim Shorts - Over the Knee Platforms
This outfit is a lot more simple, more subtley gyaru. I think it would benefit from a leopard print bra or bralette underneath the mini dress however I think an understated look is good too. I was really drawn to this snake choker for some reason when i saw it in the reccomended row and I really wanted to worm it into this outfit.
!!! I really like H&M! I've never hated their sizing and they were actually a store i was considering adding to my next gyaru haul post!
Now I will clarify all of these pieces are availible on the US store, I'm entirely uncertain about their other regions. Annnnd currently they have a Y2K collection!!!
Outfit 1 Links: Necklace - Pumps - Tie front cardigan - plumeti pink dress - 2 pack knit tights
So i tried to go for a himegyaru look but there wasnt a lot to work with, i wanted soft colors but this bright pink dress was a bit too powerful on top of them not having any white pumps or white adults sized flats. I dont think this is the strongest outfit i've put together but im hoping the next one is better.
I had this idea for soft agejo, soft cream sicle zebra print, fuzzy bag, fuzzy jacket and chunky boots. I really like this and if the orange isnt your color this dress comes in black!
Aaaah!~ I hope this was satisfactory, I tried to switch it up, some of these are a little rough but i think for ONLY shopping at these stores these are really good buildable outfits. I hope you like it friend!!!
Working on a shopping post I’m really excited for it, i went a little wild with it making like 4 outfits but i hope you guys like it!!! I just wanted to update so you didn’t think i was snoozing on any asks i was getting! 💕💕
♡＾▽＾♡ I want to do some more shopping lists!!! Send me some stores you regularly shop at or some specific styles you like and i'll try to make a list of pieces i can find/stores i think you can find those looks at! +ﾟ ☆*ﾟ¨ﾟﾟ･
those little things on ur nose aren’t blackheads, don’t try and get rid of them they’re sebaceous filaments and they’re permanent and literally everyone has them
every girl has that little pouch of fat on her lower tummy, despite what magazines try n show u, you have important organs there that need to be protected don’t try and get rid of ur pouch
ur body is smarter than u think and it knows what to do when u eat more than normal. one bad day, or even week, of eating poorly isn’t gonna ruin anything at all I pinky promise
if u think u look good up until u try taking a selfie, it’s not ur fault - our faces are asymmetrical and when u see ur face flipped it will look unnatural to u, since u don’t see it that way when u look in the mirror. to everyone else it looks perfectly fine
no one’s stomach looks the same at 8pm as it does at 8am. no one has a chiseled six pack after a day of eating, not even the super fit people u see on tumblr, because ur stomach naturally expands after eating and expecting to have a flat tummy before bed is very unrealistic
no one notices if the bags under ur eyes are bad today. no one pays attention to the bump in ur nose or the zit on ur chin or the piece of hair that u missed when u were straightening. literally no one notices these things except you so stop worrying about it ur gonna be fine
