Not the original anon, but if you love many styles, why not pick some that are similar as a starting point? For example- a blouse from LIZ Lisa or Amavel is going to work for gyaru, otome, larme, etc. By choosing versatile items, you get the most bang for your buck as well as a taste of what you like.

If you want to wear your hair unstyled or dislike make up (I'm with you on the makeup) I suggest some cute scrunchies, barettes and pins. These are the most versatile and can be put anywhere, as well as good for layering for more extreme looks. What hats are you looking for?

Where do you live anon? I'm from NYC, but used to live in upstate NY, and the winters there were definitely bitter cold. You'll find in Jfash, winter fashion is usually either semi-thick throughout, or thick in one area and thin in another. Since you can't wear tights, wearing jfash in winter will be very difficult for the girlier styles. In your case, I'd suggest going old school and wearing mid calf or knee length pants with OTKs. It's a bit unusual, but used to be seen more in older jfash styles.

It's great that you're trying out many fashions! I hope you luck in finding your way.

Cute socks always make me happy. Small jewelry and accessories don't seem like a big deal on the screen, but in person these details really make an outfit x10 cuter. For a classic prep academy, I'd suggest steering away from anything super printed (like tribal tattoo tights that used to be in fashion or giant crosses and skulls on the hem of skirts) and go for light repeated prints. Think of typical lolita prints, except cut out the border.
Blouses + Blazers are a great look that transition easily between usual office wear and jfash with a change of legwear and accessories. Don't be afraid to go cute with your tops- most normal fashion tops are very decorative and few people will bat an eye.
