SamiiChu: My Gyaru Accessories

Hi hi~

How are you? This post was kind of inspired by Lizzie's posts where she shows us her gyaru wardrobe. I want to slowly take an inventory of everything I own so that I can appreciate it more and also know what I have and don't have as I work to perfect my wardrobe

I've also started using this app called Acloset to keep track of my wardrobe, log my outfits, and see my style analytics! It's been helping me a ton to think of some new and creative ways to coordinate pieces that I never would have thought of on my own.

So I'm going to start with my accessories first! I just organized them the other night. I got rid of a few items that were in bad repair or that I wasn't wearing often.

First: my earrings! Earrings are probably my favorite accessory and I have a ton.

These are the earrings I've been wearing the most lately, as they are the ones suitable for onee/ane agejo/kyabajo! Most of them are literally from Shein but they look really nice imo. No need to spend a ton on designer costume jewelry.

Here are the ones I find suitable for himekaji/softer styles! I made all of the ones in the bottom row~ Of course there is some crossover between the substyles.

These are my special occasion and Christmas/etc. earrings. My mom made the two pairs of gummy bears! Crafting runs in the family~

Now for the necklaces

My pearl necklaces! I wear these the most often as pearls are the most common motif in my outfits and are suitable for almost everything!

These are the hime/himekaji necklaces! I made that JD replica and the parfait - I make a good percentage of my accessories.

A few more cutesy ones. I want to make some more cross necklaces! The little bow on the left is from Ted Baker and I wear it so often.

Bracelet time!

I love my bracelet collection so much. I made the majority of them and thrifted many others! Some of them were gifts too, which I'm really thankful for

I love all of these so much! They work perfectly with my wardrobe.

Here are my "trendy" pieces that are suitable for Reiwa gal (plus a necklace that snuck in; it's the same as the one the gals wear in the GAL IS MIND video!)

And my tropical/beach vibes jewelry! I pretty much only wear them in the summer.

In the end, the majority of my jewelry is handmade/thrifted/from Shein, so while I have a lot, the collection itself is pretty cheap. I love making my own gal jewelry and want to make more, but as I get a little older I would love to own a few pieces of fine jewelry.

I also want a small necklace that I can quickly match with almost anything, as I find myself needing one. Otherwise, I am quite content with my accessory collection and need to keep that in mind next time I see anything shiny and eye-catching
