30 Day Gyaru Challenge: Day 5 - What Do You Love and Dislike About Gyaru?




Hello Hello, Lil Buns!


Today's entry is 
Day 5 of the 30 Day Gyaru Challenge:
What Do You Love and Dislike About Gyaru?


I think it would be easiest to answer this in a list form. So here we go!

First the
Loves:
✨The relationship between brand and non-brand: I can do any combination of each or both. As long as it works for Gyaru, that's all that matters.
✨Makeup: I never really wore makeup all of the time. But Gyaru allowed me to learn and discover so much that I am getting pretty decent at it!
✨Lashes: I'm in LOVE. You can wear any kind depending on the kind plans for the day. You can have them as natural or as dramatic as you want.
✨Different kinds of fashion: I love a lot of the substyles. Each one is different so it feels like even using some of the same pieces can be a whole new coordinate! 
✨The Gals: Whether I follow them on social media or actually got to speak to them, they are really awesome people. We are all diverse too which just goes to show you that Gyaru is for everyone!
✨If you feel Gal, it is Gal: I know when it comes to fashion, a lot of them have so many rules. But in Gyaru, I feel so free!

Now the
Dislikes:
😕Negative People: No matter what, not everyone is going to have something positive to say. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but if you're gonna' insult someone, then please keep that to yourself.
😕"Gyaru is dying": I know people have been saying this a lot recently. Sure, the drive behind Gyaru has changed. But even with a lot of the magazines and blogs shutting down, gyaru no longer being active online, etc, I found out that that doesn't mean the end. We're still out there. We've just evolved.
😕Too much change: We have evolved. And so has the fashion. But I do miss a lot of the older styles. So I've made it my mission to hunt for as much as I can.
😕All the Gyaru I see online or talk to are like the other side of the world: I feel like I mostly see Lolitas here in NY. Any Gyaru here?!
😕A lot of Gyaru feel the need to "graduate" once they hit a certain age: Like any fashion, if you love it and it makes you feel good, then you keep doing what you love! I'm 30+ and enjoying every moment in Gyaru.

What are your loves and dislikes?

And if I think of more for either, I'll update this post!

That's all for now! See you next time!

30 Day Pokemon Challenge: Day 4 - Favorite Eeveelution



Hello Hello, Lil Buns!


Day 4 of the 30 Day Pokemon Challenge
☆Favorite Eeveelution☆



Leafeon
Did this really come as a surprise to anyone?
I love the design of this cutie because it looks like he's growing literal leaves. The color scheme is very soothing to look at. And he's just adorable all around. He's always the first one I evolve my Eevee into.

Which is your favorite?


That's all for now! See you next time!

Kinokuniya Trip and Gets! (PIC HEAVY)




Hello Hello, Lil Buns!


Yesterday, I decided to make a quick trip to the Japanese bookstore Kinokuniya. It's a great place if you're into kawaii culture, Japan and anime/manga. It was my go-to place while EGG magazine (RIP) was still in production. But since then, it's where I go to for Popteen, manga and other goodies.
