Hello!~ Introduction!☆ Basic guide for fairy kei on a budget!~




☆Hello!I've decided to start a blog dedicated to fairy kei on a budget! Well, mainly fairy kei! I hope this blog becomes popular, because i know there are many girls (or guys♥) that want to be fairy kei, but can't afford expensive japanese clothing like 6% DokiDoki or Spank! But that doesn't mean you can't improvise~ And that's why i created this blog!! Now, because i have nothing smart to say: A guide to fairy kei on a budget!The first and most important thing in my opinion is:

BE OPEN MINDED!~This is very important, especially when shopping at local stores and thrift shops Now, local stores are a great option~ You can find things that are really cute at places like the dollar store, and even Walmart! If you fit, always look at the kids section!~ I can wear children's skirts if they have an elastic waist band~ I've found really cute "tutu like" skirts for around 5 dollars!At the dollar store, you can find really cute things like hair accessories, maybe even socks? Also, if you look in the baby shower section, they sometimes have really cute charms.. If you're crafty you can use them to make things like jewelry~~Thrift stores are my favorite!~ Just make sure you wash everything after you buy it!~In the thrift store, i try to check out almost every section.. Also, if something is too plain for your taste, you can add things like jewels or bows xD and for things like shorts, you can use fabric dye so they are cute pastel shades xD  Actually, most of spank! is just vintage things from america that they think fits the shop (or at least that's what i thought >w<) So actually, you might be able to find some of these great things~ another part of it is repurposed vintage or DIY ^w^I have a lot of DIY projects that i'm planning on doing.. I just can't wait for a rainy day to do that! :DSpeaking of which, DIY is very important~~ If you know how to sew, you have a large advantage! Just find cute fabric and you can make really cute things like skirts, or remake type shirts, which are easy to make even if you don't know how to sew xD If you like making things like hair accessories like bows, you can find super cute japanese fabric on etsy!~ Also, you can use things like sheets or curtains to make into clothing or accessories~I have some "treasure troll" sheets that i'm planning on making into a cute salopette~ Also, today i bought some unicorn curtains that i'm going to use for something, but i'm not sure yet! You can also find cute things at garage sales or flea markets. I usually have to really hunt or never find anything good :( But that doesn't stop me!~ I love thrifting and anything related, because i love "Hunting" for things~I'm not sure but maybe you have friends or relatives who still have some of their things right from the 80's ^-^Sorry it was only a text post!!~~ I have many more things i could add to this ♥ But i have to get up in the morning >< So, i'll save that for another time! I hope this helped anyone, and i hope that this blog becomes successful!! Goodbye for now, and good luck!
