A substyle of fairy kei that's hard to pull off without looking all tumblr pastel goth, but one I love just the same

It's a lot like pastel goth, but it's more heavily influenced by Japanese fashion/fairy kei/decora. Like that girl is wearing a skirt from AP and most pastel goths don't know what AP even is. Pic related is more pastel goth, not creepy kei cus it's all western.

Diff anon, but maybe creepy kei is more frilly and cute than pastel goth?

Either way i think they're pretty much the same thing.

I think they're really similar and the reason a lot of it doesn't look great is because of that. A lot of the time it just looks like regular ol' pastel goth.

We already have creepy cute and pastel goth which are pretty much exactly the same, we don't need another confusing term you just made up.

What happened to pastelbat? No one posts about her here anymore. I still think that she's the best non-Japanese person to pull of this style. I'm so jealous of her because I wish I was cute like her and fashionable.

creepy cute is a style, it is like kyary esc v ott and sweet and cute with off/creepy aspects like guts and eyeballs and things, it is clunky and can b cute, tumblr misunderstood and made pastel goth and their interpretation of creepy cute and it went to yuck teir

Hmmm ok. I just went to her blog and only looked at her outfits and thought they were still pretty cute. But if other people think what you stated about her, I can see why people aren't too keen on her.

Listen, I know you think being here for more than a week makes you an oldfag, but we have had a huge influx of all this disgusting tumblr 'fashion' shit for the past month or so. It was just a simple question, but if you want the thread to derail I'll play that game. Or you can pull your bloomers out of your ass since they seem jammed up really far.

Not heard of "creepy kei", but my understanding was that "pastel goth" was blacks + pastels (didn't necessarily have to be that cute, or could look more like western fashion) and creepy cute didn't have to have any black in it at all (or include pastels, I've seen it in brighter pinks or with green) and is more about the use of creepy motifs (which seems to mainly be eyeballs and stripes) with a cute outfit.

We had blatant tumblr influence 6 months ago, there were just a lot more people pretending like they hated tumblr to fit in despite using it as an image source.

Actually I have one of these and it's how it's meant to be worn, except the clips are meant to dangle free and not clip on to anything. I never wear it but it looked cool about six years ago.
