Day 3 - Best and worst experience with non-gyarus

Sorry I've been really lacking when it comes to updating frequently. I've been quite busy and somewhat lazy when I do actually have the free time. But here I am at 3:34am - my mind functions better at strange hours.

At first I didn't really understand this challenge but after reading Chewiee's blog post I realised I had an air-head moment and misinterpreted the whole thing xD.

Best
Lets start with the positives shall we? 
To be honest I get a range of different reactions when I'm wearing gal but I have noticed compliments are usually from elderly women, little kids and occasionally middle aged mum's. I can't exactly remember one particular experience that outweighs the rest but a lot of the comments are somewhat similar in being called a princess or a doll.
Elderly ladies usually comment on how colourful the outfits are or call me pretty which makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside 8). I also get a lot of lovely comments when I go shopping from shop assistants/personal shoppers and are genuinely intrigued and interested in where the style comes from.

✩ Gyaru and highstreet stores haul ✩

I made this video a while ago - it was back in February I believe but I forgot to post it on here. There are some affordable Gyaru-able items and the others are pieces I purchased that also appealed to me :3. That's not to say you can't try putting any of those pieces into a Gal co-ordinate. Its all about experimenting and how you put it together and most importantly - MAKE UP. You can pretty much wear anything, bend the rules and be creative with Gyaru which is why I love it so much

Random style post

As many of you know I am constantly trying out different styles and I have been documenting them mainly on Instagram. So that means these are not the best quality photos since they're from my phone. As I've only just started getting into blogging again I will take more images with my DSLR camera from now on ^^.
I mainly get a lot of my ideas and inspirations from random images on tumblr; at the moment a lot of Swankiss photos are popping up on my dashboard and I love the brands use of pastels, the silhouette of their clothes and the huge amount fluff *o* so much fluff!
Pastels are a staple in my wardrobe and although I do like certain aspects of Fairy Kei I find myself feeling a little frumpy in it ;-;. Has anyone else noticed how there's never any tight cropped fairy kei style tops?! I really dislike wearing loose fitted clothes (although it depends on the style) and if I do wear it, I make sure the other half of the outfit is nicely fitted. I think it gives a little bit of a mature edge to it and I like to feel very feminine ^^
