双子のギャル界



Hi pretty gals ❤︎

Today we want to talk about buying Onee gyaru clothes from Japan, but more on a "budget"!
But shopping on online Japanese stores can actually help you save a lot of money, but you can still get really nice clothes!

We will talk about a few stores that some of you might already know, but hopefully you will learn about some new stores as well, and even better find something perfect for your look! (I will be listing prices, and they will be based off on the items that I looked at, nothing else)

We will divide these posts into a few part, first clothes (admittedly probably a few with clothes as I went picture crazy ;P ). In this post we will check out these four stores on Rakuten; Kobe Lettuce, Salus, Grandeir and Growing Rich (Grich).

Kobe Lettuce


Bags

These range from 1842¥-2490¥
They have a nice selection of bags, my favorite one is the one in the upper-right corner, as I love those kind of wallet-bags!


Hats


These range from 700¥-2296¥ (However I guess they are usually around 2000¥ as the cheaper ones are the ones that are now on sale). I especially like the middle one.


Dresses/Sweaters


These range from 1842¥-3046¥
I think I mostly like the sweaters that they have, they have some nice dresses, but I somehow feel that their dresses are less Onee gyaru than their sweaters.


Coats 


The coats pictured here are ranging from 2768¥-4898¥
Not to mention that the last two are really similar to A/W items from RESEXXY!! (Both of which I really liked!). The second coat also being really similar to one from Rady.


Shoes

These range from 2490¥-2768¥
I really like a lot of their shoes! Just be a bit wary of their sizes as I fit perfectly into size L ( around 24.5 cm) while Lea is in between M and L, but somehow their L is quite tight on our feet:/ Quite weird. But we still wear them a lot non-the-less as they look so nice! The shoes from Kobe Lettuce also all have paddings in them, so extra comfort!

You can often see Chie and Chika wear Kobe Lettuce, and I guess they probably get most of it sponsored (Jelly much!?!?).


 Salus



Prices range from 2952¥-3879¥
I really like their shoes! But they have a good variety of styles. And not to mention that most of their shoes have a cushion!




Prices range from 1842¥-3694¥





Prices range from 3500¥-4620¥
They have an OK amount of outers, cute, but nothing over-the-top.




Prices range from 2768¥-2900¥




Prices range from 2120¥-2900¥
 


Prices range from 731¥-1900¥

I think Salus is decent when looking for something cheap, but I think what I am most likely to buy from them at the moment would be shoes.


Grandeir

 


Prices range from 1690¥-4490¥
Yet again we see some similarities to what 109 brands have been doing! The third dress being very Rady inspired and the last sweater dress and the setup looking really similar to items from RESEXXY! (The setup is of course being done by many, however I feel that this one just breathes RESEXXY)




Prices range from 3990¥-6990¥




Prices range from 1050¥-3990¥




Prices range from 1690¥-3694¥




Prices range from 990¥-1990¥


Grandeir is definitely a store that I would consider buying from when I do not want to spend too much money, and I definitely do not complain about them taking inspirations from other brands ;)


Growing Rich (GRICH)



Prices range from 1650¥-4900¥
These just look all so fabulous! I really like how thin the last cardigan is, as I have always like this look on outers, but never felt that those kind of jackets suit me (small in height+kinda big chest+these kind of jackets=not a match made in heaven), so I definitely wouldn't mind that one!



Prices range from 1834¥-3223¥
More COPYCATS! Like they aren't even hiding where they get their inspirations from! The fourth one is a direct copy/paste from RESEXXY (we even have the dress), and then while the flower dresses are obviously inspired by DaTuRa, the gray peplum setup is also hugely influenced by Delyle Noir!



Prices range from 1617¥-1837¥



Prices range from 1317¥-1534¥
More copies, the first one being the gray/black flower skirt inspired by a similar one from Lip Service. The second one being the rose skirt inspired by Delyle Noir.


Prices range from 1851¥-3686¥




Prices range from 769¥-1317¥
Even more copies. I love this! The black belt is exactly like a belt we have from Lip Service, except for the fact that the leather band is a bit different.
And even though many labels might have sold ring scarfs before, those really scream Delyle NOIR because of the choice in fabric!


Prices range from 380¥-839¥
These jewelry are obviously not the best quality, but you might be able to find something you like!

That's it for this post!
I found it really interesting to see how much influence Grandeir and GRICH, and even Kobe Lettuce, draw from 109 brands. But it makes us quite happy, as that makes these brands even more gal like!
Would you gals consider buying from any of these brands? Which one do you like the best?

Also! When it comes to budgeting Onee Gyaru, what would you like us to make a post about?^^

Hi pretty gals!
Last Monday we said our goodbyes to our family and Iceland for now and headed to Japan! But we finally got a working visa!

We were quite tired our first day, but still managed to go shopping and get some stuff we needed!
Admittedly we also felt a bit depressed the first day, most likely due to stress and fatigue. As even as this is a dream of ours, it is still really stressful to leave your family for another country!

Hi gals!
Today I want to talk about something different than usual! I actually started making this post a LOONG time ago with a different motive in my mind; that is to say how you would categorize Delyle Noir and DaTuRa!
This, I, Emi, have been thinking about a lot recently, as I have been feeling that it is not suited to "my" Onee Gyaru style!
I think when I started thinking about this, there wasn't a decisive name for the style of these two brands. But a few months afterwards I knew the name and the reason why I didn't feel that it suited me, the name of the style is "Ane Agjeo"!

Hi gals!
As many of you might have noticed in the past few months, we've both been really obsessed over white clothes, and now more recently beige/ivory has forced their way among my favorite colors!
For now I am mostly taking inspirations from Delyle NOIR and DaTuRa, but they have some really pretty white and beige items!

Hey gals!
I thought I would share my outfits from Japan*^^*
In the past year our style has been heavily influenced by Onee gyaru brands and magazines and since Onee gyaru captured our hearts it gave us a chance to grow up with our style which is a really great thing for us as Liz Lisa had already become too childish for us...><

This love also inspired us to start a group on FB, but I think I'll touch better on that subject at the end of the post and just get on with today's subject! ;)

Hi gals!
Sorry for not posting for a while! 
In Iceland we always celebrate the first day of summer on 23rd of April! Even though usually it often might still be snowing in Iceland at that time...xD
Fortunately the weather in Japan was getting quite good, and this day was especially good! Which was quite nice seeing as there was some work to be done in our share house, meaning no water for a few hours!
So we decided to go to a cafe for a few hours, to which Natalia accompanied us^^

Hi gals!
On last Tuesday, the 19th of May, we suddenly REALLY wanted some new dresses for our birthday! So even though it was already getting quite late, we decided to put on more makeup and go to Shibuya 109!

Hi gals!
A little while back we had an early start to our day with our friends. They came and picked us up a little after 8 o'clock and we headed to Yokohama to check out the Cup Ramen Museum!

Hi gals!
A few weeks ago on the 17th of March we met up with Miku in Shinjuku!

Btw, we have decided to blacklist all links in comments, please be sure to have all relevant links and info in your disqus profile if you want people to easily find your blogs.
We are getting quite a few comments recently with links, and while we appreciate all nice comments and feel sad that they can't be posted as they have links in them, we will not approve of comments with links. Sorry about that!
You might find it weird that we chose to do it, but it can be bad for site health as well as we want to lessen the occurrence of random people just commenting for self-promotion. This short article pretty much tells it as we feel it.

Hi gals!
Lately we have been having more off time, giving us space to just lazy around at home and chatting with the people in our share house, but on the 7th of March we decided to go for a bit to Harajuku and just walk around and have a nice day together! (Also a great way to wear your new clothes!!)

Hi Gals!
Last Sunday we decided to go and get our hair colored and get some extensions! But Lea had been wanting extensions for the longest time, and while I didn't care that much I decided to get them just for the volume^^ We booked it a few days before Sunday at Yu House, Lea at 11am and me at 1pm, we tried to book it at the same time, but couldn't><

Hi Gals!
Like many of you might have noticed we love DaTuRa! A LOT! 
Now they just released some new items in collaboration with Sakurina and 姉Ageha, so we wanted to show you the items that will come to their store soon!
Not everything will come out at once, but the first items will be sold in the store on the 10th and then more added on the 18th. These will be added a day earlier to their web store, so be sure to check it out!
BTW! Yay for two posts in one day!^^

Hi gals!
Like many of you might know if you have been following our twitter, we arrived in Japan a few days ago! We had been planning this for a while, however we have had to push it back a few times and this time as well we thought we would also have to push it back! BUT! Then it turned out (about 10 days before we were supposed to go), that we didn't need to!!! So on a bit of a short notice we had to get ready, say goodbye to everyone and off we went!
After 20 hours of traveling we had to get ourselves from Narita to Shinjuku station by bus and then take the train from Shinjuku to an office Shin-Nakano to sign a rent lease for a room in a share house....not the easiest task since we had two big carriers and two small ones....yay..

Hi Gals
It is again time for Favorite Staff Coords! This time we will be showing outfits from February♡ The brands that we will show are Cecil McBee, DaTuRa, Delyle Noir, Duras, Lip Service, Luxe Rose, Michell Macaron, Rady, RESEXXY and Rienda.

We had wanted to include Chedel like before and add EmiriaWiz, but like always I only know of Maruyama Keiko's blog for Chedel and she doesn't post outfits very often and as for EmiriaWiz I didn't find any staff blogs only Aizawa Emiri's blog and I can't take any pictures from there:s Bummer....

But let's get to the outfits!

Hi gals!
I thought for today I would make a blog post about some new items that have been coming out this spring and what trends I see popping up strong!

The first trend that I noticed getting on strong by looking through certain brands on Fashion Walker, was denim! Then of course the no surprise ones, pastel and flower prints.
I do not have anything against denim, I however do not really like the use of the denim this spring, or well to be exact, I do not like denim jackets....and they seem to be a big thing (At least based on how many brands are selling them!) And stripes! Also mixed feelings about those....

Nice trends are the hot pinks amongst many brands and the continuation of the peplum tops and bottoms! Decorated necklines and bow-belts are also big within some brands (Luxe Rose being one of them, but they haven't really updated the net shop with the new items><) and that is such a pretty trend to us as it really gives outfits some extra oomph!
