Old one got nuked, here's a new one!
Anyone else here prefer a toned-down 80's Milklim look? The kind where no overdecoration, just dress like Punky Brewster?
I love simple, pastel 80's sweatshirts with quirky or simple jeans, any brands or shops that do this kind of stuff?
Dumping this look becaus it's adorb(Most of the shit comes from Milklims webpage tho..)
Cute short-sleeveed girly cutsews also welcome
The girly kind of shit is really cute if it's frilly enough.
Skirt is OK, sweater is best

she got no neck senpai
>>8916016
She's lost a lot of weight. Good job, girl.
>>8916015
this is cute! could someone please post more fairy kei on guys? or just guy like outfits? all the examples i find are... not good lol.
>>8916018
ugh why no colorful makeup! take advantage of that skin tone, damn. I am disappoint.
>>8916405
That shirt is so unfortunate and I feel bad for people who buy and wear it because it's ~pastel
Like even putting aside the fact it's a bunch of stolen art slapped onto a hipster tiedye piece of shit, it's just ugly in general
>>8916612
forever sad that I don't have this skirt
>>8916405
found this in my inspo folder. not sure if it'll help much though
>>8916016
Dang, I think this is the most flattering picture I've ever seen of her. The angle really helps to hide her unfortunate, heavy-on-top-skinny-legs body shape.
Anyone know where to get skirts like this? I've seen the Dokidoki one but I want one with the pastel look this one has.
>>8916768
I mean skirts like this.
>>8916771
Costume-y tulle ballet skirts look like that and dancewear sites are usually a lot cheaper than jfash brands

link to the skirt anon was talking abt
>>8916000
I prefer the light 80's look more to all the tulle, ugly wigs and decora-tier clutter ANY DAY.
>>8916988
any idea how long the skirt is?
How do tall girls do fairy kei? All the tutu's seem very short. Pic related is the one from bodyline and it already looks short on this girl and I don't think she's very tall.
>>8918633
Nah, Bodyline's tutus are just really fucking short.
so I recently found a chiffon lingerie top similar to this one in a charity bin. Except it has more layers of chiffon, and flower embroidery around the collar. Can I style it the same way (maybe with a tee instead) and still call it fairy kei? Or is lingerie strictly a CPK thing?
>>8918699
It sounds cute, could you post a picture? It'll be easier if we can see it.
>>8916925
If you don't mind me asking, what are your measurements?
Anyone have any experience buying children's clothes?
>>8916001
Cute outfit but holy fuck that's unflattering on her
I hope it's okay that I self post...
This was my very first attempt at fairy kei, but one of my facebook friends said it more resembled Spank fashion (which I'm unfamiliar with)
Anyone have any concrit to help me improve?
>>8919125
Spank is the original Fairy-kei. You are on the right track.
Looks adorable overall, esp. the bow motif and MLP. You could have matched the bag and the skirt better, an in they could be the same colour, but the shared bow takes care of that bit quite nicely.
>>8919019
Ohhhh, agree- HM were selling glitter tutu-skirts in pink, orange, and blue pastels a while back. I got the blue one!
>>8919019
not the person in question, but I do have exp shopping in kids's sections. I'm around 158 cm with B-cups, 172 cm waist. Last I checked, I can get into 140 size skirts. (EU sizing)
170 is actually kind of big on me, so it might fit girls with bigger chests.
140 is the lowest I have exp of going, and it's a bit of a squeeze depending on the clothing.. It was a while since I measured, though, and I can wear undies* that size just fine now(actively been losing weight).
*Finding girl boxers in adult sizes is just about impossible, and they tend to look boring, anyway.
>>8919161
>172 cm waist
are you sure that's in cm?
How long are most of the skirt?
>>8919413
That's gotta be off. My waist is a nice 83 cm.
No kid has 172 cm waist wtf, that is obese
>>8919415
172cm is taller than me. I could wrap around a person like that. They have to have meant 72. My waist is 66-68cm & I wear kids clothes all the time. 72 isn't that far off so it woul make sense.
while on the subject of kids clothes. I recently found this skirt in the back of my closet. (I guess I bought it awhile ago? idk) It's wayy too short to wear so I was thinking about cutting out the underskirt layer and wearing the chiffon part+ waistband over other skirts? Would that be cute?
>>8919452
If the other skirt transits well, sure.
>>8916771
cool shirt. mind providing a link?
>>8919415
A 67 inch waist is someone who is confined to a bed because they can't move or stand for more than two minutes.
>>8916006
I really don't get the appeal of this sweater. It's a simple Catton candy picture with pretty ugly letters.
Guess it's just popular because it's brand.
>>8916016
>hands around the nippels.
Classy as always I see.
>>8919159
Thanks for the clarification!
I googled Spank fashion but it honestly looked more like fairy kei but with more vibrant colors. I guess I need to do more research.
I'll try looking for a bag that's the same color as the skirt. I also tried to incorporate stars, but they're less noticeable (necklace, broach, stars on shirt)
I didn't push for that one too hard because I didn't want to mix two different themes too much
>>8919413
Nope, that's a typo. It should say 72, my bad. It's CM.
>>8919734
Only do it if you want to match it with the skirt. It clashed a bit too much with the pink, but the shared bow motif made it work anyway :) There'd be no problem if you just wore a green/lavender coord.
It's still too cold where I am to wear tights. How do you guys dress fairy kei in transitional weather?
>>8921465
You could try layering tights for warmth if that's any good. I feel like I've seen some nice fairy-kei with leggings but I can't seem to dig the coords up
>>8921465
Take it from a Swede: It's not.
Fleece leggings, baby. Sure, finding a nice colour might be harder, but you could always try and wear them under baggy jeans.
>>8921465
maybe just try and find pants that could fit in the style, or some lighter jeans. you could layer skirts/dresses over them too. pic semi-related, it's not fairy kei, but you could work around this silhouette, tho it might not be everyone's cup of tea. but yeah, as other anons said, layering tights works really well, and you could also wear shorts under your skirt for more warmth.
I love the baggy sweaters with pastel hair but not a ton of accessories
Milklim mixed with navy tho...nope
>>8921562
the skirt is so unnecessary
When people wear normal / vaguely pastel regular clothes and call it 'fairy kei' ...
Like what is this
>>8921507
>>8921517
>>8921562
Thanks gulls. I have fleece leggings but none in pastel color, and only one skin toned pair (I should buy more of that, huh?). I'm really irrational about layering tights, it's just a pet peeve of mine. Any ideas where to buy cute baggy pastel jeans?
Will dump some stuff as thanks!
>>8925280
>>8924124
tbf, the items themselves could work fine if they actually fit the body, and they took away those shoes. MLP sweater + ice cream skirt seems like a decent base to work off of.
>>8924128
This however is a hot mess and has no excuse. Did they even try?
>>8925282
>>8925284
>>8925288
>>8925291
>>8925293
>>8919125
I think it looks nice! Maybe more bracelets and a wig but those aren't neccisary for the fashion anyways.
It does look like Spank! kei which is pretty similar to fairy kei.
>>8927152
If it makes you feel better anon, I've been into jfash in the UK for five years and I've never seen a girl in fairy kei IRL. Heck, I've only seen a wild lolita once and the lolita scene here is huge compared to the fairy kei scene. Most of the girls doing fairy kei are in London/Brighton.
>>8916619
I fucking love this
I'm probably terrible for saying this.
But this trend reminds me of crazy cat lady clothes.
>>8929342
that dog is the best thing i have seen itt
>>8929934
I love that cardigan!
Did anyone pick anything up in the bodyline sale?
I tried getting that really cute heart keychain to turn into a brooch/pin but it sold out in all colorways while paypal was glitching out.
>>8921465
Fur lined leggings in skin color+pic related.
>>8932671
I ordered a few things last night. The dress is def more lolita but its way too short for lolita so I'm gonna try to make it work for fk. Total was 41CAD. I'm kinda pissed though, bc if paypal hadn't taken anything off my credit card to confirm it I would've had enough for another shirt.
I dunno if any Fairy kei people make their stuff but I saw this fabric bundle that might be of use to someone.

>>8933452
Also meant to say it's got a 70-80s kids in Japan vibe to it so it might be cute for clothes.
>>8916001
I feel like this would be cute on someone super tall and skinny, but on her those are the ugliest effing jeans I've ever seen.
I wish I had a cute group of friends to go out in fairy kei with.
>>8916018
Anyone know sauce on that printed hoodie? I got that tank top print like that
>>8937423
It's taobao.
>>8932671
Got the same unicorn shirt as >>8933064. Wish I bought that skirt too, I was pretty much only thinking about my lolita wardrobe so I completely skipped over it. Much regrets.
Also did that polka dot tier skirt sell out? The one that came in mint/black/pink/purple?
Going to do a dump of the tumblr tag
Why is there so much clutter in it? I'd say only 30% of the tag is actual outfits, and about half is just store ads.
>>8939185
Not fond of the frumpy shirt. I get she's trying to get that milklim polka dot look, but it's not happening yet.
>>8939188
They said it was an OTT easter theme but still... eggs on the head. The jacket is super cute though.

Not bad but not a fan.
Your face is really cute it fits the aesthetic well and your hair is so nice and clean though. I adore seeing natural makeup/hair in fairy kei,spank and lolita.
>>8930101
sauce on these panda sweaters? my girlfriend has been wanting one for months now.
>>8940130
Unfortunately there is no specific source.. these sweaters are vintage as hell from the 80s
theyre generally hard to find because theyve sort of become like, a trophy in the fairy kei community
occasionally theres one up for sale online but its likely to sell for around or above hundred dollars due to its rarity (vintage, therefore low quantity and high demand)
>>8939195
Ugh, why even bother? It looks so bad on her. I don't mind chubby girls/people, that can still be cute, but after a certain point its just.. No. If you want to be cute, put that effort into loosing weight
That cameltoe fupa aint kawaii
>>8939195
Bowling ball kei?
>>8940473
oh okay, I see. No wonder she wants one then. damn
>>8940130
>>8940767
Maybe she can settle for something like this until one shows up for sale.
