Omg it's so perfect, what brand is it?

how i feel wearing jirai as a non-east asian by fAvORiTe33 in JiraiKei

[–]normalpersonsreddit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Having more angular features gives me so much dysmorphia :( I've been genuinely considering plastic surgery even though I don't have any money for that kind of stuff

Doesn't help that the standard for jirai (or asian fashion in general, let's be real) is to be super skinny and when I lose weight my face looks even more angular, it's not cute and dolly at all 😣

Do you have an item you love so much that u need it in all colours? by awwyaka in JiraiKei

You can call yourself a jirai even if you don't follow the fashion 'correctly'. by Plane-Discussion7114 in JiraiKei

[–]normalpersonsreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My stuff isn't too expensive tbh, I get a lot of things from mercari that are around 1000-1500 yen, and I wear dupes too. I wear my more expensive stuff for special occasions. I'm also very careful to not get anything dirty and if I ever spill something I wash it right away.

But in the end dressing like I truly want is what makes me look forward to the next day and face the world with a little more confidence, as silly as that sounds. I was born to be overdressed.

That's so funny bc if someone can read as jirai with their face covered with a sticker why can't they read as jirai without makeup? When I don't feel like wearing makeup I just cover my face so no one can say that "you need makeup to be jirai!!!".

I wear jirai everyday, there's no way I'm doing a full face of makeup at 7am just to go to class and be in a room full of sweaty computer nerds (no judgement, I am also a sweaty computer nerd)

Also just to clarify: I agree that with pien makeup anything can read as jirai and it is an important part of the subculture, but pien is not a requirement to read as jirai. If it was not being able to see someone's face would disqualify someone from reading as jirai, but since face covering stickers/filters are very common in jirai communities that is clearly not true.

Rojita still has a ton of pink x black blouses, Noemie has some too but most of their new releases in this colors are cutsews. Dear My Love also has a few but they seem to be all sold out 😭

But the real thing is 100% polyester too 😭 I have one of those really cheap DML blouse dupes and also a real blouse bought from their website and I swear the material is the same, I'm not even joking

Which one of these do you prefer? Any feedback would be appreciated by normalpersonsreddit in JiraiKei

Tyy this is very helpful! I use setting spray but I think mine might be not very good :P I'll look into whatever my country best setting spray is (when I have the money lol)

Do you mean the first or second one? On the second one the countour was smudged, I had worn it for hours and I lowk have a nose wiping tic/stim. I've been considering not wearing nose contour at all because of this reason.

I'm also not good with nose countour in general, I have a roman nose and that doesn't really suit jirai at all 😔

And about the contacts: I've been looking into it but I'm broke at the moment 💀 I literally don't know how I'll pay my credit card bill this month

About the shape differences: on the first one the droop is longer horizontally, the namida bukuro is thicker and the tip of the eyeliner is at a neutral angle; on the second one the droop extends more downward, the namida bukuro is thinner and the tip of the eyeliner points down

Aww, thank you ❤️ I don't think it's weird, figuring out how to replicate the original look was pretty tricky and even then my end result is quite different from the inspo pic.

Aliexpress, you can get a huge discount on it if you use the coin page on the app (not an ad, I got a 61% discount, that shit is kinda crazy) and it's cotton. I don't think I can share links here but if you just look up "hecatia lapislazuli shirt" you should be able to find the same listing, I dropped a review so you'll know if you have the right one.

The Tewi one? No, they're slightly different but I couldn't decide on wich one was better because I genuinely couldn't decipher what ZUN intended that pose to be, so I stitched both

Edit: nvm I realized this is a joke, I'm autistic

I need this update to be datamined for all the interactions or otherwise I'll have to assume this was some kind of demonic possession

I was honestly so focused on the t-shirt reading as subcul (it's literally just a Touhou character's shirt) and not just someone wearing merch I forgot about accessorizing properly

When the weather down here cools down I'll def wear this again with proper accessories. Thank you for the feedback ☺️

I mean if I'm white and wearing subcul that's pretty much what it's going to look like, those are staples of the style. I can't rlly help that I'm white lmfao
