Ane Style Guide

Whoa, it’s been a while since I last made an update for this series! Let’s make up for lost time with a look at the gyaru style ‘ane’. 

Unfamiliar with this style? Let’s picture it...

You see a lady – oh, you just know she’s a lady – standing with her friends. There’s a ferocity to her gaze and her looks tempered with hints of glamour and maturity. A tattoo adorns her bare shoulders, and her skin is the golden brown of a sun-kissed goddess. She’s beautiful and fierce, and she knows it. Don’t mess with her.

Sexy lady, foxy mama, rebellious star, do these descriptions suit you? Maybe you ought to start incorporating a bit of ane into your life!

Let’s see how to do just that.

GAL style under a microscope :: Different substyles – Intro Post

Heya! Recently I was inspired by Mitsu’s and Lizzie’s posts on personal style to look at my wardrobe and really figure out what kind of gyaru I wanted to be.

But as I was thinking about it, I realised omg I’m not even sure what kind of styles I could really get into! I had some general idea of what the different styles were all about, but I wasn’t sure how I was going to translate any of them into my own style or my own closet.

So who wants to join me on a post of style discovery? Let’s take a look at different substyles and see what’s key to the different looks.

Looks to be covered: Agejo, Ane, Hime-gyaru, Himekaji, Rokku, Mori, Onee-gyaru

Going Gyaru – With Shop Links [PICTURE HEAVY]

Let’s go window shopping!

Gyaru, gyaru, gyaru. It’s a style people love and hate. It’s a style where people can be utterly ruthless but also amazingly sweet. It’s a crazy kinda up and down loop-de-loop rollercoaster, and I want in on it. Do you want in too?
