Are there any good plaes to get decent ribbon ties without spending much, other than Bodyline? I've always thought the look of those things was really cute but I have no idea if it woulf like the way it looks on me, and I don't like the colors and patterns Bodyline has.

>>9432082
This is interesting.

Anybody got any verticals striped blazer coord pics? I've been hitting jackpot at thrift stores and found a great fitting medium gray blazer with lighter gray stripes about an inch apart, but I can't shake the old school gangster look from it. Also not sure if should go darker or lighter under it. Some nice maroon could be interdasting now that I think about it.

> it's almost summer! What are your warm weather days tips and tricks?
100% cotton blouses.

> What type of legwear do you like with your uniform?
Short white socks, mostly, since they are cute with athletic shoes.

> Are you a student? When do you wear this style and why?
1. No
2. I wear it as casual daywear, especially if I'm going somewhere fun with my bf.

> Have you worn a uniform in the past? Why do you like nanchatte/kogal/etc?
1. No
2. It's flattering, classy, and feminine while somehow still being casual enough to wear regularly. And it's subdued enough that I don't feel bad for wearing the same outfit often.

> What's your favorite item that you own? Favorite item that you don't own?
1. It's a tie between my super-convenient schoolbag and my favorite skirt which reminds me of the blue interior of my bf's old corolla.
2. Pic related, I want an oversized version of this hoodie to wear on cool nights instead of a cardigan this summer.

>>9432814
Try Aliexpress. I've gotten some nice ones from there.

Where can I find high quality school bags like this? All I can find is really cheap-looking taobao bags.

>>9437405
AR Conomi maybe? Or Yahoo Auction JP

>>9437405
The best place I've ever seen them are in places that actually sell seifuku and school bags.

Any places for beginners to shop online (aside from Conomi)? I've always been interested in kogal style & nanchatte seifuku.

>>9438560
For simple things like blouses, ties and socks you can buy locally. I've found plenty of button up blouses for kogal in the men's section.

Skirts, school bows etc can be bought on taobao, rakuten or bodyline. Some of their stuff is passable as long as you stay away from the obvious costume stuff. I'll try to grab some links for you later on.

Anyone found any cute box pleated seifuku skirts on Taobao?

Also I love my schoolbag... I need cute charms! Cute charms sources? Your favorite charms sources please!!

Full length version after I'd been there 6+ hours so I was pretty rumpled by then. Thankfully the skirt had built-in shorts and the blouse and tie are from: https://shop36089213.world.taobao.com/

The blouse was super nice and came free in a full set I purchased. The shop's skirts aren't very heavy (the skirt in the pic is from a different shop) and fly up in a strong breeze but I really liked the variety in their plaid ones.

>>9432056

Isn't that skirt supposed to sit higher up?

>>9444030
It is but I kept tugging it down because I felt like it was too short in the back. I'm nearly 5'7" so skirts with built in shorts on me don't fit like they do on petite Asian girls.

I asked in the old thread but it's gone now. Any suggestions for cute charms for decorating our schoolbags? I'm using mine every day now because it's just so versatile, but I need some cute charms!

>>9444045
Anon, please do yourself a favor and buy a longer skirt. The one you have is doing your body no favors and that makes me sad.

There are a lot of longer skirts for cheap on Yahoo Japan since many schools have modest cuts. Search チェックスカート ("chekku skirt") to specifically find plaid ones.

>>9444110
I do have some longer ones but I think it's the fit of this one that's the issue. It's one of those tennis skirt designs so it's pretty form fitting until the pleats. Sad though because I thought it was so cute but I'm self-conscious about too-short stuff so me tugging it down didn't do me any favors, I know.

You think if I tugged it up where it's supposed to be it'll look better or is it the style that's the issue?

>>9444113
Whether the pleats are sewn down or not, the issue is that skirts like this are designed to sit on your natural waist. They are tailored to draw the eye in onto the smallest part of you. But by wearing it lower, your natural waist is concealed by the shirt bagging around it and the skirt itself minimizes/conceals your hips.

It would look better tugged up to where it's supposed to be from the perspective above, but then you have the issue of it being really short, which creates a different problem. I think the length it's hitting your legs at right now is flattering, you just need to find one that hits you there while sitting at your natural waist.

Does anyone know what the deal is with these sakura pins? Are they just cute? Part of real uniforms? From anime?

>>9444168
Thanks for the detailed feedback! I know Bodyline has them now for a bit more so I'll measure mine and then check theirs to see if they're any longer.

>>9444182
I know they cropped up seemingly overnight on Taobao and now they're in just about any JK shop on the platform. I want to say they're just a nice trend like with ribbon ties and peter-pan collars.

>>9444182

You know it would be nice to think they are a way to denote class rep or what year you are in school.

>>9444011

I'd never thought about sweatshirts for nanchatte, but especially not blazer-over-sweatshirt (which I adore)

Is it okay/normal to wear plain black or white thights with Nanchatte?

Does anyone use this type of ribbon? I have trouble tying them in a way that they'll sit right

>>9457275
I got some free with an order but I haven't used them because I'm shit at tying nice looking bows. Never learned the "rabbit goes around the tree" nursery rhythm method.

Is wearing a sailor fuku okay for nanchette?

>>9464047
Yes? As long as it's authentic looking and not a cheap costume.

IMO as long as it's not one of those ugly "galaxy fuku" you get off of Taobao it's fine. I think seifuku with a cardigan on top like this is really cute.

>>9444168
not OP but I've been thinking about trying nanchatte and this is something I'm worried about being a problem for me. I have stomach issues and most of the time wearing clothes on my natural waist literally makes me sick. Usually I get skirts that fit above or at my hips for that reason, but I'm scared that might look bad for nanchatte.

Couple quick questions! Does Bodyline's tartan skirts have the pattern just printed on top, or is the pattern woven into the fabric? And how thick/sturdy is the fabric? I know someone in a past thread said it was nice enough to wear but I'd like to know more specifically.

Also, what kind of neckwear does everyone wear? Ties? Bows? Something else? Does anyone want to show off their collection and share their favorites? Any store/brand recs for neckwear?

>>9464232
Eh, don't worry about it. I buy bigger sized skirts all the time that hang on my hips for the sake of modesty and most of the time you can't tell if you wear a cardigan or vest over it. The skirt in this one is at my hips and you can't tell but it'd be different if I hadn't added the vest over it.

>>9464246
Bodyline skirts are a mixed bag. >>9464250
is one and it was really nice quality with heavy fabric and the pattern was woven in. I don't think I've seen any of their skirts that just have the pattern on top because when you flip the skirts inside out the pattern is still there. Thickness is the variable though depending on which skirt you get. Some are thick and hold pleats well while others are super thin and costumey.

I stick to bows for neckwear because tying ties is a pain and I haven't gotten the hang of those cord bows yet.

>>9464195
I have always loved the look of seifuku. I blame watching Sailor Moon when I was a little kid. I would never feel comfortable wearing one, even if it was a real, nice uniform. But they look so damn cute. I have no idea what it even is that appeals to me so much. I always loved seeing retro pictures of ladies in sailor uniform dresses too, so maybe I just have a thing for naval themed clothing.

>>9464250
Good to know that covering the waistband helps. I know the look is a lot sharper and neater with the blouse tucked in, but maybe wearing it untucked would hide the low waist as well then? I know I've seen a few pictures of girls with their blouses untucked before.

>>9464426
Untucking the blouse would help a lot as well, I just didn't want to suggest it because it's more of a preference. Some people don't like doing that while others prefer it.

>>9464246
I'm like 80% sure that the sets that come with blouses where the skirts are super short are thin and flimsy as they look like shit in photographs. The skirts that are sold by themselves are sturdy tartan with the pattern woven in. I have three - for example, the one with cyan and yellow woven into it that comes with the bows is nice and thick.

>>9464426
>I would never feel comfortable wearing one, even if it was a real, nice uniform.
Aww, anon, how come?
Tbh my seifuku has gotten me nothing but compliments, even from normies, and it was one of the cheap ones from Aliexpress. I felt like a giant fucking weeb wearing it out for the first time but then sort of got over it. It just feels really cute.

>>9464909
>Aww, anon, how come?
Mostly because I'd feel really self consious, and the whole weeb/anime thing. Maybe it being such an iconic design doesn't help either. I've been wearing alternative fashion for years but seifuku is just one of those things I can't see myself having the guts to wear.

This bunny seifuku was one of the first pictures I saved when I started my j fashion inspo folder years and years ago. I still love it.

>>9465621
I rally want one of those themed seifuku, but they'd only be good for weeb events. There's a chocolate cookie themed one that's really tempting me.

Does anyone knows a webshop that sells skirts that are just a little bit longer than the standard onces on Aliexpress?
I'm quite tall and those skirts hardly cover my butt. So I've been looking for short skirts that are just a little bit longer.

Good to know the fabric is truly sturdy. Like I said, I know people said they were wearable, but nobody ever mentions the actual quality of the fabric. I'm torn between which one I like best. There's a couple that are pretty cute.

I was hoping I could wait for Bodyline to either have a sale or do a shipping promotion to order a few things, but it seems like everything I wanted is now sold out. They still have the pleated skirts I like, but I'm nervous that Bodyline is either going to sell out of those too or just finally shut down before they have another promotion. It really looks like they are done with Lolita and probably also done selling to the overseas market.

Pic is Kyary in nanchatte. I love her outfits so much.

I never really got the socks over tights trend. I can see wearing them hidden to protect your tights from your shoes but wearing them like that is just odd.

>>9467203
>>9467255
Oh I didn't even notice the socks! I thought her tights were just a little slouchy. That's a bummer though. I still think it's pretty cute otherwise.

Hi everyone, I'm a complete newbie to this look, so please excuse what are probably very basic questions.

I'm in Japan currently and only recently got into this style, but I have no idea where to start on buying my own outfit for it. I saw what looked to be the makings of an entire outfit at Don Quixote, but each piece was around $30 each. Is that a reasonable price? I'm also unsure if DQ's quality would hold up well or not. Does anyone have any experience with their skirts/sweaters/etc? Should I try looking somewhere else? If so, then where? I would appreciate any recommendations you might have!

I'm also interested in the sailor fuku look, but the only place I know to find those is Bodyline. I've heard mixed reviews on those, however.

Sorry again for very simple questions... I honestly haven't the slightest idea where to begin though.

>>9467780
I'd look where girls actually get their uniforms. For Bodyline since you're in Japan you can go to the shops and see the quality for yourself before you buy so I'd definitely go there just to see if you find any bargains.

>>9467780
My recommendations are to check out bodyline, ar conomi and any second-hand shops you can find.

Conomi is more on the expensive side because they're closer to real school uniform. Bodyline's physical store has good finds imo, lots of nice vest, blouses and cheap bows/ties. The seifuku are a bit costume-y though. DQ is popular for their nanchatte pieces and they seem pretty decent.

I'm not 100% on the location anymore, but there's a second-hand cosplay shop in akiba on the backstreet near one of the SEGA buildings that had some decent seifuku. It's called mitsubado!

>>9467255
I think it can look really cute as long as it looks purposeful. Here, the same colors means that it just looks off. An example of socks-over-tights done right would be those fake thigh-high tights where the top is sheer and the "thigh highs" are opaque. I can't find any nanchatte examples but I think it'd work really well for the look.

>>9467951
See this is good, it looks good. I just can't stand seeing someone's plain socks sticking up over their tights or people who try to be cute and wear those frilly lace socks over tights.

Bump. I don't have content to post, though, since I've only just started following these threads and don't have much saved that hasn't appeared already.

I like scarves with the sailor-fuku, ribbons just don't look quite right to me.
Also, I translated the picture for you.
I hope it's legible.

What's with the size zipper? The blues already buttons up.

>>9444012
gotta agree with

the current design of this one isn't suiting you where it's at. Can you not just pull it up and wear shorts underneath? either that or just get a different skirt, it looks really odd in that position.

2 different styles.

I've been in Japan since the end of April and haven't browsed cgl since leaving, but I went to Conomi in Harajuku and bought a cardigan. Stupid little dream come true.
Back then it was right before Golden Week and I saw a shitton of school uniformed girls in shopping areas. Could they have been nanchatte? It was before school let out and they looked really cute, likely too cute for school. But yeah there was a shitton. Way more than I expected. I looked like shit compared to them lol closer hip to waist ratio and stick legs just look so much better in this fashion.

>>9477537
They could've been! That's why I love nanchatte lol, you can never tell. When I was in Japan every student I saw looked way too cute as well lol. It's not uncommon for girl to apply makeup after school/cuten up their uniform after school for shopping.

Has anyone discovered new brands lately? I just found out about this recent one called Anbe; they debuted a couple months back so not a whole lotta stock but it's cute! They're on Instagram under anbekoushiki.

I've really gotten into the style lately so I tried throwing something together out of what I had in my closet.

>>9478003
Pretty good for something you've thrown together. The skirt is a interesting silhouette too.

>>9478003
Love the skirt! It gives it more of a fashionable vibe but the cardigan doesn't really go with it.

>>9478003
Baggier cardi and probably shoes with a bit of a smaller heel, as your are giving me jfash vibes that are on the sexier side (I really can't think of a better word. sorry.) But oxfords might be a good way to keep a heel and still have that classy preppy look you've got going. The skirt is really cute.

>>9477773
I'm dying for a pink cardi, this is so cute.

As a guy, are there any good references for this style to go off of? The one boy I've seen in this thread (>>9466924) looks a lot like he's just wearing girls' style but with pants, and looks latently gay as a result. It might be the hair, pose, and the filter, but it's also definitely the fact that his sweater's too long in the sleeve

Apologizing in advance that most of these are Korean but it's surprisingly difficult to find fashionable mens uniforms for Japanese?

aah, having a matching pair would be so cute

>>9466921
Kind of unrelated but is that Duu?

>>9481685
Huh. I guess gakuran don't really classify as "fashionable" in the same sense, though I'd argue they have their own appeal.

>>9490885
Outside of the delinquent looks, no. They're not really that fashionable when it comes to actual students hanging out after school. I can't remember what documentary it was but one show did a little thing on schoolgirl fashion and one girl wasn't even allowed to wear makeup and had strict dress code so she packed an entire new set of uniform in her bag to change into after school. That's probably what gakuran girls do because the 'western' uniforms seem to be a lot more popular.
