I am pretty curvy. Not fat, not even chubby, but I have large tits, ass, hips, and upper thighs.

I really want to try visual kei, but the look I want is so androgynous, I don't think I'll ever be able to pull it off.

I also want to FtM trap, but again, my body isn't built for that shit. My face isn't too masculine, either, though makeup could help that.

As long as you're skinny, you're good. You've the kind of look asians admire and strive to have, to be honest, and you should know that.

Tall and skinny is the be-all end-all. Don't let weeaboos and insecure manlets fool you. All clothes look best on you than they do on asian piggus.

I'm about 5'5 and usually dress in Himekaji. I really like the way it looks and I get comments that it suits me pretty well. Then again it's not that hard to pull off like OTT sweet lolita or OTT anything. I just try to stick with things that will fit me and avoid dresses and skirts that will be way too short.

I'm a 5'3" half asian, with a cute face. I have the measurements to fit in most lolita brands (the ones I don't fit are too big for me). While I can pull off the sugary cute look, deep down I want to be able to look fierce and gorgeous. I don't want to be cute anymore. I dream of being tall, with a slender face that shows off sharp, stunning cheekbones. I don't care that loads of people think they look weird, I just want to look like an eastern european high fashion catwalk model.

This is sort of me. Generally as girls go I think I'm quite pretty, but compared to the cutest, daintiest of Asians I feel kind of tall and broad--5'4" Asian American with 28FF boobs, no humblebrag they don't do well in loli or cute Jfashion. I guess I'm pretty in a more "American" way and less in a kawaii cutesy Asian way. I also kind of have a serious resting bitch face.

I do my best and I don't feel bad about myself, exactly, but sometimes when I'm standing next to a 5'1" 90lb Asian girl (of which there are a lot in my university) with doll-like figures, I kind of feel like a horse.

I'm 5'4" and I would rather be a tall Amazonian or a very petite, supershort kawaiiuguu type. I'm in the middle and I feel ungainly next to the short girls and stumpy next to the tall ones.

Heeey, almost same body here, linebacker shoulders and hefty thighs, except my hip bones are pretty narrow.

Still, I say fuck that shit and even if I have trouble fitting kawaii blouses with my man shoulders I wear them anyway. Also if you have a small-ish waist you can wear high waist skirts to hide your hips and look pretty fabulous. My waist is not super tiny but small enough that when I emphasize it I get some curve to my body rather than being too boyish and straight.

So yeah, because of my body, I do feel self conscious and ungainly when I'm about to put on something cute but when I'm actually wearing it, that kind of goes away because a lot of it is disguised by my clothes. I've only ever gotten positive reactions from other people.

There's a couple of things I always notice about these threads:

1. People always want the opposite of what they have (short then tall, tall when short, angular face when cute, cute face when angular)
2. Based on this we're probably pretty hard on ourselves.

And I can get all hugboxy and tell you ladies that you're all super beautiful (you might just be!) but it still won't make anyone feel better about themselves.

No you really wouldn't. You probably are only exposed to the whole Korean kawaii monolids, which aren't even monolids. They do have a crease, it's just very small and make them round. Real, natural monolids are rectangular/manly and are uglier than fuck. You can't do much eye make up because it doesn't show up due to the huge heavy fat covering my eyes. I'm planning on getting double eyelid surgery because the fat in my lids are starting to cover part of my eyes when I look a certain way.

This. You can't do anything with eyeshadow or eye make up in general without the crease unless you put it up to your eyebrows. Eye make up on monolids doesn't show up unless you're looking down all the time.
Most Asian celebrities, models, actresses all have double eyelids too. It's just deemed as beautiful. China, Korea, and Japan are the few countries in Asia that usually have monolids. Countries that aren't far east have double eyelids -- most Asians have double eyelids. People just don't want to call dark-skinned Asians Asian for whatever reason, even though Malaysia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Philippians, Indonesia, Burma, etc are all Asian...

Not true, the people in these countries have a mix of both monolids and double lids. Monolids are more common among East Asians but I'd say it's incorrect to deem that they "usually" have monolids. It's probably about 50/50.

The "dark skinned Asians" you mention are usually categorized under "South Asian". They're regarded separately from "East Asians" because of genetic and ethnic variance.

It's not a discrimination thing, it's like how Russians, Ukrainians, etc. are called "Eastern European", whereas "European" generally means French, German, etc.

Sure, and Great Britain is part of Europe too but the people there are generally referred to as "British", not "European".

For sake of differentiating, and they *do* have their general differences both culturally and genetically, there are "South Asian" and "East Asian". It doesn't matter if you personally don't differentiate them and simply consider yourself "Asian", which is fine by the way. On a global scale, for sake of clarity there are categories.

Well, the best way to get what you want is to learn to sew and make it yourself. Barring that:

Check Modcloth's sale section, I've gotten a lot of stuff cheaply that way.

Also try the Ebay Asian sellers, most of their stuff is frilly but you can occasionally find simple things.

IDK how Canada Post works, but could it have been a customs fee?

If there were actual additional charges beyond what was on your original invoice, it was probably a peculiarity with the mail system, not the store you ordered from. I'm not brushed up on the specifics of Canada but I know that certain countries will charge customs fees if the package is listed as over a certain amount.

Okay so this is totally a "grass is greener" thing, I'm the opposite of you >>7203641

I'm not much taller but I always get told that I look really tall in photos, or that from my face they thought I would be really tall (???). I kind of have a severe face/expression, and pretty defined cheekbones for an Asian. I pull off "fierce" pretty well, I think.

While I do like my look, I often want to cosplay cutesy characters with adorable costumes for fun, and I feel that my face is much less suited for this as it's too mature to look childish and innocent.

I think it's more my expressions which are more apparent IRL or in motion, I've been on webcam chats with different groups and I always get told that I look "really serious" and that I look intimidating. One girl said to me "you look really cool, like the kind of person I'd be afraid to approach because they're too cool" ; ~ ;

I do some mori occasionally, I've built up a pretty big wardobe of beiges/ivories/blush pieces in the past few years, but overall I feel like I'm more suited to greys and blacks even though I like light colors. I should probably try out black forest mori sometime.

I'm 5'6 with a tiny small bone structure, to the point that if I don't pay attention, I can easily drop below 100 lbs, but I have a hella weird body. My hips are more narrow than some guys, and I'm a 28B, so if I wear a sports bra, it looks like I don't have any tits.
I also have narrow shoulders, and I'm at that weird in-between height, where I'm not short, but I'm not tall, so I never really learned how to pose in photos so that I can work my height.

Also long arms, and even though people say it's ~attractive, it only really counts if you're a fucking model.

Anyone wearing a sports bra makes it look like they don't have tits. Unless they're like super fucking fat. Push up bras or padded bras are just stupid imo, because they portray a fake shape. I wear a sports bra if I go out and no bra if I'm home. My underbust ~ bust ratio is 8 inches and I hate how much my chest sticks out from the side. I wish they didn't stick out so much.

I don't get why short girls think they can't be sexy? I've seen tons of short girls who look super sexy if they wear form-fitting and/or skin-baring clothes and the right makeup look.

Plus if you're short you can obviously pull off cute looks too.

I'm 5'8" and 120 lbs. Tall gangly stick and I can't do sexy nor cute. It doesn't matter if I show off my legs in a short skirt and get a tan and wear lots of eye makeup, I just can't ever look sexy. And obviously I'm too tall to look cute.

I have a hard time understanding what girls are picturing when they say they wish they were tall and skinny. I wish I was shorter and curvier (not like fat but tits and hips and an ass, you know.)

I'm 5'8, average weight and with a tiny waist. I fit into most lolita clothing (I wear gothic) but I obviously have to avoid shorter dresses. My problem is that I have a really "cute" face which looks weird with my height and style, or at least that's what I think.

I very rarely use heat on it (except for my bangs), I deep condition it once a week with coconut oil, I use thermal protection, I give it a protein treatment every 1-2 months.

The recent thing I've done is cut it to my chin and get it highlighted blonde. Before that, it was virgin hair so the bleach wasn't that big of a deal. And it looks bad. I'm thinking about dying it back to brown just so I look less embarrassing.

What have you done to improve your hair?

Don't really like the idea of putting myself up on /cgl/. Like it sucks because I'll try to wear sweet or cosplay as "cute" characters but then I end up looking too mature, then I try to cosplay as "mature" characters but I end up looking too petite with my zero curves, minus my ass. I have an ass but no boobs, and it's hard to find anime characters that are that decent in between that I can pull off without looking ridiculous.

5'4" anon, it's not so much that we think we *can't*, but being on the shorter side we more easily fall into the "cute" spectrum rather than the "sexy" spectrum.

Obviously being sexy is still possible, but it would be easier to be traditionally sexy (for example long shapely limbs are commonly regarded as a hallmark of being sexy) with a bit more height.

IDK what you mean when you insist you "can't do sexy", because IMO it's all about wearing clothing proportions that fit you flatteringly. You're going to have to elaborate.

You can be tall and slim without being gangly/awkward. When I wish for a few more inches, what I want is a Taylor Swift-esque figure.

Overall I really like my face, so it's not that I hate the way I look at all...but sometimes I just want to cosplay kawaiiuguu jailbait charas and my face totally isn't suited for it.

I used to have a rounder face when I was younger, but when I hit 20 all the fat just melted away. I think I look much better now, but definitely less youthful/innocent.

I want to get into lolita, but I want to lose a few pounds first. My biggest problem is my face, I'm not kawaii enough and I'm thinking it'll take some serious makeup to make me look presentable. Of course there's the height issue as well...

I got the qt dimensions, 5" and skinny. Skin gets blotchy sometimes but it's normally clear. Long hair that looks nice if I actually make an effort.
But Goddamn if I don't have a haggard face.

I'd be all set to a sweet idol, but my face looks more in its' forties and demands subdued clothes. It's asymmetrical and saggy.
I don't understand, it was so round and full when I was a teenager, but I wasn't pretty at all. Something happened when I hit my twenties and all the fat fell away from it. It's nice that I can look pretty from a straight on view with the right makeup, but I look hideous from the side about about twenty years older than I am.

I'm kind of glad Lor exists, even if it she looks just as bad in sweet it's nice to see someone similar having fun

acne.

any girl can look good as long as she takes care of herself (even if she feels like other girls look better or they can't pull of their fashion of choice, a general unbiased opinion would be that they look good as long as they are decently healthy and clean.)

unless she has acne/scarring.

p.s. not looking for acne advice, I probably already know more than you do.

5'7 and my weight is normally around 110 but yet I still have all of my baby fat in my face which could be cute, except I have a FKMT pointy ass nose.
I can't wear lolita because my breast size is a 28DD, and most gyaru doesn't fit me because I have a long torso and stubby legs.

You mean the actual correct method of finding your real bra size?

I was going to comment on >>7205536 that 28DDs are actually not very large.
It's a misconception that cup sizes are fixed, the letter denoting the cup size is determined by the difference between the circumference of your bust and the circumference of your underbust--hence, cup sizes are relative.
3" difference is a C cup, 4" is a D cup, and so on.

A properly sized 28DD looks like pic related.

It's also because more people have a larger band size, and D boobs *are* pretty big when you're talking a 40 band or something.

And since most stores don't carry band sizes smaller than a 32, people get a limited view of what "D breasts" look like since D cup bras usually only come in the larger band sizes.

Well, when I'm next to short people, I tend to kind of slouch over, so I don't seem so goddamn giant, but when I'm with taller people, I'm trying to stretch my limbs too much so I don't seem so much shorter, but that actually makes you seem smaller.
It just makes you too aware of how other people are posing, so you look awkward and out of place because you're not focusing on how YOU look.

I am very self-aware of my face shape. I always wear my hair like described on the second picture, to hide and soften out my jaw-line. I get a lot of compliments and my head-shape has been described as heart-shaped, but sometimes I feel like I'm cheating everybody. I freaking hate it when it's windy outside and I can't use my hair to hide my jaw-line. The worst thing is, I wasn't even aware of my face shape until a year ago. Since then, I've been constantly aware of it. Wish I could just forget about it.

since i saut[eqn]e[/eqn] in a restaurent, this is exactly how I feel about my shoulders now a days. My next is getting thick and my shoulders are getting bigger than my hips (It's not like they weren't already bigger before but atleast i could hide it).

And I wish I was 5'5 at the very least so I could have the pride of wearing black/edgier clothes and fitting in it. Being so small, with my body type, I can only do childish combinations.
