I'm really into these threads so I'll post what I know/have noticed for new people

>Shopping
AR Conomi
Lucy Pop
Paris Kids (bows, accessories)
Cosmates (authentic looking uniforms)
Taobao (nanchatte is popular in china)
eBay (loose socks, school bags)
ToAlice (cute sailor uniforms)
Rakuten or japanese secondhand apps

>Accessories/extras I've noticed
Decorating school bag with charms
Scrunchies on the wrist
Pins/brooches
Loose socks
Hoodies under a blazer
Trainers/sneakers for a sporty look
Pastel cardigans/pleated skirts
Itabags are really popular
Crocs work surprisingly well with kogal

>Extras
I'd recommend going to your local thrift store to find button ups, I've found that men's shirts are 1000x better for nanchatte.
Women's button ups tend to give you a weird silhouette if you're going for the Japanese school uniform look. I'd also avoid costume-y sailor uniforms that you can find on eBay or spreepicky, in the older threads more emphasis was placed on your coord looking somewhat authentic with subtle personal touches

>Do you prefer old-fashioned style, or modern?
Modern!
>Seifuku or blazer?
Both, but usually blazer. Seifuku looks a bit too cosplayish here
>One-peice or two?
Two
>Did you school ever have a uniform?
No ;_;
>If not, why do you nanchatte?
I love how it looks. It makes me feel so cute yet its very comfortable and not weird looking at all.
