B-Gyaru OOTD

What's uuuuup ya'll?

As you know, I just made a new wig a few nights ago and I liked it. However, once I wore it out in public I realized that it was waaaaaaaaay too tightly curled and short and made my face look manly and just...ew.

So, today I ran a straightener through it >:D The curls are a lot looser, so much in fact, that they just look like waves now. It definitely framed my face better and I love it 23095850692443059x more.Due to my being madly in love with it, I decided to come up with a B-Gyaru outfit. I think it came out awesome with the hair :D


Close up of the hair and my makeup without circle lenses.Yeah, I know you can't see the eye makeup at all.

What do ya think??? Ya like it??

P.S Here's another picture of my makeup, hopefully you can see it better

Trying Out B-Gal...?

Heeeeey y'all!
Last night I cut my hair! :D now it's not even an inch long and it's allllllll natural.

Now I've always wanted to try a certain hairdo that's really big and curly! Like an Afro. So, I tried to make a quick weave style of it. Instead, I just made it a wig (this was the first time I've made a wig and I'm excited!).

I find this style to be nice for B-gyaru perhaps depending on hair accessories :3 so, I figured I could try B-gal for a while, y'know, for fun.

The hair I used is by Princess 100% human hair style P deep wave 8 in color 27. It was $9 a pack and I used three packs.

I used hair glue and glued it on a wig cap while it was on my head (I had a shower cap underneath the wig cap so the glue doesn't seep through and onto my hair). After the glue dried the wig was done, after combing through the curls to make the hair bigger.

Woo! I hope you like it! And enjoy watching me attempt B-gal lol

P.S excuse my fugliness

Running Errands + Petticoat Review + Inspiration!

Today was errand day...sort of. I had to return library books and go by the post office to pick up a package. I decided to do my makeup today due to my looking at Queenie Ichigo (or Margarita Barret)'s photos this morning. I spent a good hour looking at her blog xD She inspires me to get better at coordinating outfits and doing my hair and getting in shape (seriously, her body is freakin GORGEOUS!)

She's also one of the models for Gal VIP, the new gaijin gyaru magazine that should be out in September ^^ One day I hope to be featured in the magazine *sigh* Her outfits...

So due to my inspiration, I dressed up Oneegyaru style!

I feel like I'm pretty damn good at this style. The makeup is simple and more natural than the Rokku style or other ones that require a lot of black eyeshadow/liner.

Anyway, I'll take this time to do a review on my newly received petticoat. Some of you may not know, but I am also into the Lolita fashion. I don't have a large closet but I do have a few staple pieces that I enjoy :D I just love poofy dresses!!

First off, I ordered the petticoat from Loli-Loli Paradise on Facebook. If I remember correctly, it cost me $50+? and it's the Classical Puppets Bell Shaped Petticoat (Super Fluffy) I ordered it...about May/June and it arrived the 12th of this month

It arrived in this paper package that was lined in plastic. The petticoat was packed inside a thin plastic wrapper.

Now the petticoat itself is SOFT AS FAWK! It's so smooth completely itch-free! The trim on the edge is in a lace design but it feels more like cotton or that tablecloth material you'd find at your gramma's house lol

It has a bunch of layers in it which makes it Super Fluffy. I can't get it to stand up on its own like in other people's photos cuz I'm a lame-o, but it is full. Now I'll show pictures of the petticoat on~~~

Here's a picture of a skirt (from Bodyline)with and without the petticoat (This skirt is thin and hence not very heavy)

Big difference, eh? Well, it's not a HUMONGOUS poof but I like the poof that is there :D btw, this is a cupcake shaped petti so it won't give you the "mature" A-line skirt look.

Now a with/without picture of the petti with a heavier skirt (also from Bodyline)~

I added the profile view because I feel like you can see the poof better from the side in this skirt rather than the front.

Alrightttt!!! That is all for today! I feel like I'm gonna post again later today, I'm gonna try to do a Cocona-inspired makeup since I never used the glitter eyeliner I bought xD

Hair Dye Experiment

What's up ya'll?
Yesterday I had a random impulse that I acted on and it was to dye the blond part of my hair a pastel purple! :D

I went to Walmart and bought Splat! Hair dye in Lavender (Picture are once again at the bottom of the post) it cost me $8 because it was on sale [regular price is about $10-$11] and also bought a 1 1/4 inch barrel curling iron, but that's for another post.
This is my first time dyeing hair a permanent color and I'd say this kit was easy to use but their gloves are flimsy.. I advise using latex gloves as oppose to the ones that come with the kit.

Anyway, I follow the steps but make a mistake. I either didn't put enough of the bleach in the hair, didn't leave it in long enough, or I did both. So this heavily affected how the color turned out. So I failed at the bleaching and proceeded to mix the color that came with the kit with some conditioner to lighten it [I ended up using a whole damn bottle of conditioner for 1/2 teaspoon of color! That stuff is heavily concentrated!] and the first time I applied it the hair just looked like it had a very light purple tint.

I went back and added more dye, said eff the pastel color I just want purple, and put the now darker shade of purple in the hair. Now the hair looks like it'll be a more saturated shade of lilac and I'm excited! But when I rinsed it out, it turned into a dusty pink color ._.

It doesn't look bad, but it's not what I was going for...*shrug*

Also, I apologize for the out of order pictures. This app kind of sucks when it comes to pictures.

Rokku Gyaru look!

Yoooo guys!
Yesterday I decided to try out the complete Rokku gal look! Now, I don't have a lot of rock clothes to do this so I had to do a bit of digging lol.
I found a green shirt that my mom gave me from a store called Buckle and it looked pretty damn rock style to me but it was lacking something...
So I cut out the collar of the shirt and cut slits in the sleeves! Then I found a pair of jeans that I experimented on a while ago trying to put rips down the front. I didn't quite like it so I just cut them into shorts.
(forgive me if my pictures are all at the bottom, I'm updating this from my phone >_<)
Then I tried a new hairstyle! That side brushed hair thing lol I remember seeing a few people do it before so I tried it myself. I didn't put gel or spritz in my hair, I just brushed it to the side because I never left my house and I saw no need for it. Then I did my makeup and blah blah.
Hope you enjoyed!
