EGG 09/09 Issue!

I'm back again this time with another magazine post! I prefer to post this before my last summer post cuz I don't wanna end up posting this at the end of the month again www

 

Ok so today we're gonna flip through this month's issue, next will be AGEHA from 2013 (if I have enough time ^^"), but for now let's take a peek through September trends from 2009!

So first thing (as always XD) is our usual Co&Lu ad! I love every co*de as always, but I can feel a more "american" influence in the models and colors. That year was really trending in America the "rocker" style with '80 influence, which is visible imho in the color choices (more "darker" like in Kanako's outfits; also the preppie style was a big trend, imho reflected by the use of bombers and varsity/college patches, but it's the basic for Co&Lu www)

After we have 4 different substyles presented by our favorite gals! Romihi, Kanako, Yumachi and Aina show us their style for this month

Romihi's style looks so haady! Her title says "Poison Kawaii x 80's x Choiero(A bit sexy)" and we have the basic summer palette (yellow, light blue, pink) combined with black and some white. Flashy/polished accessories and punk/emo influences do the rest

 Kanako instead choose Amekaji! Her title says "Naughty Boyish x Loose Casual" and as I said for the ad we have more black than the usual, more pointing to rokku (see the coords in the middle-lower part). Maybe a sort of rokku amekaji? Mostly of her clothes in those outfits are from Delyle/Lip Service/Vanquish which were taking a rokku turn just in those years

 Yumachi and Yunkoro stay true to theirselves and show their usual style through "Erokawa x Trendy": we have a mix of cutesy and country co*des (since pastel and country is trendy this summer), with lighter colours and some sexy touches of black. Her favorite brands here are d.i.a/Lip Services/Sneep Dip 

Aina closes this amazing showdown with nice tsuyome co*des: I love her mix of pastel colours with tons of black, so sexy and ageless T___T Her title says "Tsuyome: sexy x (skin) exposure x animalier" and I think it's so appropriate!
As Yumachi she wears a lot of Sneep Dip and d.i.a, but she chooses a more "adult" and sexy style combining them with Gold's Infinity too 

Next is one of my favorite articles ever: 1 item, 3 coords! Every gal shows 3 different ways to wear the same piece of clothing. The point here is to make a different style with each coord, to show the potential of the clothes! Notice the colours of the chosen pieces: they're all darker colours, I'm so in love with that royal blue that it could be my next boom www

Romihi, Kanako and Yumachi know how to kill me www They're my favorites!! Which one is yours?


 
And we can see a trend from August that is still here: resort gal is still a big thing, even if it's September summer is not over yet!   
 
  
Next article shows us the best gal tops for summer! We have tshirts, shirts and tank tops, but the keyword is only one: "yuru" which means loose
So we have long, loose tank tops, boyfriend shirts or big tshirts, it doesn't matter if it sits nice and loose on your body!
Our gals show us the best choices from this summer: 
 
 
Next, we can take a moment to remember WanBoo, which spoiled us with cheap clothes for so many years that it deserved a special article on EGG lmao
R.I.P. WanBoo, we loved you so much
 
 
 And now we have my favorite part, street snaps! Trends from summer are still very present here, along with the "haady"/80's and rokku vibe

 
Next we have some items suggestions by our favorite models 
 
 
Last Summer article! Posting this for the sake of the bikini lmao
Also here you have a lot of make up suggestions  
 
 
Here's the reason why this issue is so special: Gal transformation!! In this article they took a regular girl and teached her how to do gal, to incentive whoever wants to try the style!
Notice how easy is this makeup tutorial, it looks so gal even with small glasses and no lenses!

 
With this other girl the transformation is total: from makeup to clothes to nails!

 
Next, some hair tutorial and accessories suggestions:
 

 More bikiniiiiis


And as usual this issue closes with more street snaps, this time it's with gals from Sapporo (if I didn't get it wrong XD)

And that's it! In this issue summer trends are still here while we prepare for fall: more fall items (like long pants, hoodies and long sleeves) and colours are being used with summer items like sleeveless dresses; also we can start to see growing the haady trend (which I hope to see more in the October issue). Black x white/pastel colors are a big thing, along with simple patterns like stripes, starts and polkadots. 

Tsuyome, rokku x amekaji, haady and erokawa are the bigs now: which one do you like? Will you prefer one of this substyles for this fall? Tell me in a comment!

Please keep in mind that I don't speak japanese, I tried to translate what I could and I studied the pics as I can, so everything I write is just my opinion and my reading, if I'm wrong you can totally correct me in the comments and I'll rectify!

For today that's all, see you soon and take care!

Yours, Natsumin~

EGG 08/10 Inspo Post


ヤッホー~
I should've posted this at the beginning of the month but I had lots of work and things to do so I had to wait but it's finally here!
My post about this month 2010  issue♡
So let's flip through it!

First thing is obviously the usual CO&LU ad: pretty and colorful as always, you can't deny that Kanako is the queen in this ad! I love her pinkxwhite shirt combined with the black skirt♡
 
Then we have this selection of the most liked co*des from Crooz Blogs


And this article about gal summer, there are some staples like the beach and the fireworks: it's like taking a look into their summer! Anyway I absolutely love their swimsuits♡♡
 
Now we have a big article about yukatas: we can see a lot of trendy colours (mostly black and pink combos), prints and there's also a tutorial by Kanako about how to wear it, so you're ready to shine during the summer matsuri♡ Also some suggestion on accessories, I love the idea of the straw bag, it's so gal imho instead of the usual fabric kinchaku!

After yukatas, let's talk about trends! This month it's all about tops, in particular long tops and crop/short tops!
The trend this month, as you can see, is to wear long-ass tops/dresses (you'll see it in the street pictures) like they are or with short crop tops over them! You can also wear the crop top alone obviously, it's all about lenghts this month
Some closeups:
An easy way to style this is to do crop top + long tank top + denim shorts/skirts/pants, but it's also cute a crop top over a long dress (or high waist long skirt)

It doesn't matter if it's a top or a dress as long as the coord contains a combo of short + long:
We can also see some cute ways to accessorize them! This month usamimis and foulards are a must along with bulky bangles, hats and flashy accessories:
Then we have the outfits rundown from each brands! From W♡C and LizLisa we can see more saikegyaru (boho/hippie gyaru) hints, I'm totally in love with the W♡C coords on the left by Kanako and Romihi!!!
Also lots of rokku by Gilfy/Backs and Lip Service! Glad News is trendy too rn:
More blackxwhite and marine from the past month! The Vence outfit by Kanako is so special♡ I'm also in love with the Delyle and d.i.a coords
LizLisa and Cecil McBee went more country instead, but it fits along the saikegyaru trend
Also some swimsuits spam, cuz it's August and we waited a f*cking year for this moment XD
I'm totally in love with the Lip Service (which is more rokku this year and it makes me so happy) and Cecil McBee sets TuT
Finally street pictures!! I'm in love with every single coord
Diet insert that I post cuz I love Kanako
More swimsuits spam disguised as shaving creams suggestions XD:
The only makeup tutorial for this month lmao
Summer dates!! As usual they're following models on their date
Posting this just for the gyaruo hair inspo lol also her hair is cute

More hair inspo in this AD! I want this hair colour!!
Closing this issue with the favorites products of the month:

So, trends recap:
- short + long combos (crop top + long tank top, long top + short jeans, crop top + long dress etc)
- black x white, marine and geometric prints from the past month are still trendy
- sandals, fringes, brand sunglasses, bulky bangles, foulards and hats are must-have
- lots of saike gyaru hints and rokku vibes
- outfits with less layers and accessories but with one big, flashy accessory 
 
I'm really into those trends, I bought a couple of dresses to match them:
No brand maxi dress

 Roxy dress

The blue one is my birthday dress, so I'll show it worn in the next post
Sorry if it took so long to post it >< I hope it can still be useful
So what do you think of this month's EGG issue? Will you follow those trends? Let me know in a comment
See you next time ♡ and take care!
