Kowata kotu aru~~~
I love me some hot B-Gyaru styles, so excuse me while I indulge my fashion side with some examples of what’s rockin in Shibuya right now. If we had chicks runnin the streets of Melb with this kind of gear, I’d be all over it with the photographic journalism, but unfortunately even the Gyaru-type girls here are pretty tame. B-Gyaru rock the urban street look, inspired by hip hop and r&b, they often wear their hair in braids or with bright coloured streaks. Hot pants, neon colours and black are big winners, with baseball caps, lots of bling and of course, hoodies.
That might be enough for now. As you can see they love sneakers and boots. I love those cute baby doll dresses paired with the boots in the last one, reminds me of Rihanna in Shut Up And Drive, when she wears that short black dress with the white stars on it. Everything she wears in that clip is hot. I think I might have to start getting into hats, I have none but they look so cool on them. I can’t wait till I can finally go to Tokyo and absorb this style in its natural habitat! Until next time..

Hells yea Melb needs to take it up a few notches, its too boring. But I’m sure you’d look just as hot when you get ready for a big night out Kezza!

They are insanely cool! Asian chicks are just so hot right now and they’re able to pull off almost any look. Love it

Definitely go with the hat. Hats are way cool on girls.
One observation on the whole B-Gyaru thing? Only nice looking legs look nice in stockings and leggings. Adding stockings or leggings to skinny, shapeless, knobbly legs does not make them nice. Check your local guide for details.

I’m defs ahead of you on that one Gully, different patterns and colours only really suit some people. So far I haven’t tried much more than a few patterns (coloured stockings just seem so loud to me) but if ain’t hot I ain’t wearing it.
Hats are awesome!
