Gyaru Advice: 001

I decided this is a good way to do something productive while I still work/wait to get a good couple of outfits together. And there aren't many places that cater to plus size gyaru, and some new Gals who are plus size probably want to join the community, but are worried. Mostly because they don't want to be posted on G_S and be cruelly told they're too fat to be gyaru.
So I will stop with a body shape that I have. Which is an apple shape. An Apple shaped woman usually has, a lard mid section, and rounded or broad shoulders. Wide back. And generally have flat buts. Our assets are usually our legs and arms, and sometimes large breasts. For the sake of the keeping this informative and straight forward, I won't delve into how to dress for each substyle, because even apple shaped women are different person to person. But I will lay out the basics.

Update + Before and After

Well I'm still working towards getting my makeup right. The last critique I was bolder lashes and to define my eyebrows.

Despite having a new brand of lash which I suppose I should really invest in curling my lashes a bit more, they're aren't quite as bold as I thought. At least the tops ones. The bottom ones are a tad long for my liking so I may trim them a bit. I do have some other top lashes I can try. This was done about a week ago. I'm glad my skills aren't so terrible after six months of not even putting on makeup. Style wise, still working on it. Mom's gonna help me make a homemade dress form, which will be helpful with making tops and well dresses. And boy do I have plans for dresses. This should also help me waste less fabric trying to do things through trial and error. It's not that I don't know my measurements but I can't exactly pin fabric to my body. I've been thinking a lot about the styles I really do like and I've decided that I'm gonna have a base style. 

What does that mean? Simply. I'm going to goth versions of my favorite styles. Yes there is Goshikku Gyaru which I like very much and will probably have this as an everyday style, but the other styles like Amkekaji, himekaji, Onee Gyau and now definitely hime gyaru, they will just be a little more goth influenced. Now don't get me wrong I will still have the respective color pallets for each. And I very much like my pastels in spring. I have a couple pieces that will look great in summer. But I figured it was different, from my point of view. I'm still working on losing weight and feel these substyles are doable with my body type. Right now the best curves I have are the girls. But I have other assets that I work while hiding the not so flattering parts. Truthfully I've never been more excited and going through Violet's tutorials I have a lot of ideas for some fabrics that I haven't gotten around to using. Now I'm still missing some key pieces. More specifically, some nice shorts, light wash jeans. Blazers and good bras. ^^;; Also some shapewear would be lovely. I have come to the conclusion that until all the weight is off or I manage to make one I won't have many cute bras. Being DDD is not remotely fun. But enough about that. 

Also looking to get more sandals and open toed heels. I've always loved a good heel, but have mostly stuck to some boots. 

I also want to make some contributions to the Gal community in someway. Although my make is not quite perfect. I am a crafty girl and I thought it would be great to do some sewing tutorials. And other crafts of course. Really itching to get some new lenses, and new lens tweezers. The ones I have are too thin and the "padding" if it could called that is not ideal. I've got quite a bit on my plate, but I feel invigorated for the first time in a long while...that may have something to do with the fact that I'm damn near kicking thirty in ass, to quote my brother. I'm just glad I don't look it lol. Hopefully by summer I'll be driving. If I new any gals, new or other wise within the South Jersey/Philly area that would be great. And it would be lovely to start a Gal-Sa, but if I am driving I would be content with maybe heading to NYC to hang out with some of the great Gals up there. I'm going to fix my header a bit. Even though I own a white wig haha. But I want something more polished ya know? And I have to work on my Graphic Design skills ( I have like very little. ORZ). 

Hopefully next Post will be a little more exciting with more pictures, even if it's just makeup or my current little thing which is making nail sets for myself. trying to grow out my own, but until they're long enough, false nails are always good. 

From my point of view.

I had intended to make a post about a certain Gal Mama. Phillicia beat me to the punch, but I'll speak my piece anyway. Now when it comes to Chaudie, I myself have never had much interaction with her. Even in the days of Udoli when I first came to know her. I've heard that she's had some drama, but after reading what I read...I didn't know it was that bad. But I'm a bit observant ( or nosy) and occasionally I like to check her blog sort've in hopes of finding something good. You see being plus size myself there aren't a lot of plus size gals in the community I can look to for inspiration. Even though I've know about Gyaru for a long time and even knew the girl who actually started Gyaru Secrets. I actually didn't attempt it until about...last year. At least seriously trying. Because of reasons it's been mostly face/makeup shots, as I've only begun in the last couple months trying to dress gal and have it look flattering and I'm finally on to something...but back to what I was saying. Chaudie has been into Gyaru far longer than I have. And one would think that 5+ years there would be more than one unflattering outfit post of her. Needless to say I'm rather disappointed. From what I can tell she has no job, and even with two kids has time to kill. She could've done something great in being a Gal mama on a budget. There's no shame in not having brand clothes or anything of that sort as long as you know how to dress for your shape and still keep in the style as much as possible and still being you. But she has done none of that. In fact the only thing remotely gal about her would probably be the magazine. Her wigs/hair need work and her makeup is...much improved from when she first started. However it is no excuse. After 5 year and all your "knowledge." You should be better than where you're currently at. I feel sorry for what ever new Gal gets caught in your web and at present I'm not going to say who you can and cannot talk to. You're a grown woman.

I will say that not only are you not a modern Chanel  as your instagram states. For anything and most especially Gyaru. you're close to being a poser. Having all the knowledge with nothing to really show for it, is sad. Now if it's about your weight. Then you're gonna have to take the high road and learn to dress what you have now while you "talk" about wanting to lose weight. Which again you have the time to do. But if that's not it, then what's stopping you? Seriously. You cannot call yourself gal and do nothing but makeup. That's not how this work. And before anyone says anything about me, I am self-conscious about posting full body shots and being rather broke haven't been able to buy more flattering clothes that work with Gal. Fuck the only time anyone sees your makeup if they aren't friends with you on FB is probably when you make videos which are horrendously boring themselves. The only kudos you get from me on this subject is that you posted them in the first place. Being E-famous won't really get you anywhere if you don't look a certain way, so what are you going to go from here? Will you actually attempt to improve and you know show some outfits and actually try to be at least A Gyaru Role model? Or will you whine and moan and post secrets about those who have spoken in a light you didn't like?

I see it like this, You're like one of those girls that swear they're the baddest and who ever disagrees is wrong and therefore should cast aside, shunned and as something you like to do, be posted on G_S while you pretend you don't like the drama, I know you frequent. You aren't as kind and sweet and above drama as you like to think you are. And this is probably what makes you worst. While some sanity and calm needs to drown out the nastiness in this community which just seems rampant with drama and New Gyaru bashing ( especially among the black gyaru community, which has been improving.) You aren't helping it in any way shape or form. And no New Gal can really learn much from you. Without your drama and maybe your magazine which is late by the way you are less and less relevant to the community aside from maybe being an example on what a Gal isn't.

In good spirit I really hope that maybe something will light a fire under your ass and maybe push yourself to do better. Or you will just crumble as an Age Hoe who was nothing more than liar and a fake.

Recent and Not so recent Gets

So yesterday I went shopping with mama . While I didn't get a whole lot, still got some much needed clothing which is great since spring is just around the corner. I'm really hoping to go shopping again in a couple weeks with some idea of what I want in mind.

Hello New Year

I know this post is like way over due and I'm sorry about that. I really haven't had much to blog about. I will have another blog post tomorrow that's more exciting than a simple text post, but I thought an update would be nice.  I am currently in the process of applying/registering for college. I'll be taking the placement test Thursday and I have a bit of studying to do before then. I'm going for game design and development which is really right my alley. As much as I like fashion and making clothes, drawing is more my speed and something I truly enjoy. I have gained mainly due to my own laziness and I'm trying to kill all my bad habits pretty much cold turkey. Hopefully by the end of the week, my room will be clean and organized and I can start back up again. But I'm gonna definitely get into the habit of walking daily again. Finding a job is still a difficult task. I really hope I find something soon, mostly because I am planning to get my examination license for driving. I wanna be able to save for a car as well as school supplies. I'm going to need a desktop and a more up to date laptop with more room than what I currently have.
