Gyaru gaki

Gyaru gaki: Children that are dressed in gyaru style (jap. "gaki" = "brat")

A while ago, the japanese brand MA*RS (famous for koakuma-kei style clothes) cought attention in kind of a bad way - they were selling rather revealing kid´s fashion.
(I can´t find any stockphotos of their kid´s series anymore, and I also couldn´t find a childrens section on their webstore - I suppose they don´t sell kid´s wear anymore. o.O)

This was the first time when Gyaru gaki cought my attention - in a rather bad way, I must confess. ^^"

Anyways - MA*RS is not the only brand that does focuss on gal style fashion for kids - and of course, there are lot´s of positive examples!

Gyaru gaki does take a turn on every common gal style such as Mori (dressing very natural, like a girl that lives in a forest), Amekaji (japanese turn on US fashion) & Rokku (dressing like a rockstar) ~ just for example. =)

Here are 2 links to common Gal gaki shops! Again, you will have to use a shopping service to purchase from there. =)
Dreamwing
Coco Market

I can also recommand rakuten, especially Yumetenbo kid´s rakuten store! =D
They´ve got so much cute stuff there, so I took most of my images below from Yumetenbo. ^^
You will have to use a shopping service to purchase from rakuten as well! =)

And since none of my blog entry´s is complete without a giant photo-listing... up on the pic´s now! x3


Looks like they had so much fun during the shooting! =D
The girl with the ugg-style boots is looking so cuuuute!



I wish I would have been such a cool kid... xD"
The leopard cap rocks! xD



Typical (hime)gal style shoes are available for kids as well...

...but this does remember me of the "Suri scandal" so much! x__X
I´m talking about the daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise. Some years ago, there was a huge scandal on german medias, showing sweet little Suri wearing ca. 2cm high heeled shoes, photo here. There was a huge discussion if Katie and Tom are good parents or not. o.O

Personally... I won´t make my (future) little daughter (xD") wear such shoes. It seems to be so uncomfy for a little girl, and it´s bad for the feet´s growth for sure. o.O



Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhw... :´D
AHHHHHHW. :´D
What more do I have to say? xD
I find the armwarmers on the romper in the left upper corner a bit useless... o.O
But the rest of the outfits is just so cuuuuuuute! :´D



Haha, I do own the same orange/pink tunic as the girl in the upper left corner. =)
Most outfits on Yumetenbo kid´s are smaller versions of the clothes sold on the regular Yumetenbo store for grown gals - so that little girls can twin up with their (possibly gal) moms, perfect example in the pic in the under right corner! xD
I really love the pink polkadot outfit, looks so colorful and sweet! =D



Of course Yumetenbo kid´s does take a turn on the famous short skirted Yukata that became famous recently. =)



BUT...
This store does also feature a sexy koakuma-kei category for kids.
I dislike this a lot, especially the right outfit with the giant pink lace garters.
I just don´t see the point dressing a little girl in sexy overknee stockings? Am I oldfashioned? o__o"
Some pieces of those outfits are okay when worn with a lot less revealing outfits - just like the pink leather jacket. Might look super cute with black pants and a cute printed T. =)


I think that´s enough for today, thanks for your attention! x3


It´s such a sweet, sweet life, isn´t it?

P.S.: I`m very sorry for the lack of updates AND answering on comments recently. I have been so damn busy with work, I just couldn´t make any time. I´m very sorry for this. ^^"
I promise to do it better soon! x3
