甘い Agejo ♡

Hello Cuties~

     I got all dolled up for tiktok again!  T'was an easy and simple look makeup wise. I haven't worn my MA*RS set in a long time so I thought "why not".

     Initially this was going to be my usual "coordinate post".  But something inspired me for today's post.

     Lately in the Gyaru discord there's a lot of Gyaru history talk and I couldn't help but think to read just a bit while trying to see if sweet Agejo was a thing (lol).  I kind of came up blank as far as the literal term I used.  But Agejo is basically known as a "sexy & cute" style.  So having a "sweet" aspect to your look is sort of implied, yes?

     So what do we know about Agejo?  Just about every website or blog I visited defined it as a style that is "very glamorous and feminine, influenced by expressing a high level of sex appeal through the style and attitude" (Agejo).  We also know that the style is typically associated with hostesses or キャバ嬢 (kyabajo).  These cabaret gals entertain and service guests in bars, and look fabulous while doing so!

     How do I get the look?  Common traits are ruffles, lace, bows, garters, mini skirts and dresses, and black, pink and white clothing.  And while these are common, they aren't 100% necessary to create an Agejo look.  I've seen gals in what appears to be pinstripe skirt suits; and with the right accessories, shoes, makeup and hair, it's the sassy and glamorous style we all love.

     "Whilst Agejo is quite a revealing style at times, it remains very classy" (Agejo).  It's good to keep in mind that Agejo isn't necessarily risqué.  Although it can be . . . depending on your personal preference.

( shout out to ma girl Izumi Mana~ lol)

     I mean I know Izumi's . . . environment demands a sexier appearance, but are you going to say this isn't Agejo?  Sure a little mixed with her usual tsuyome style but I think it's that sexier side of Agejo :  revealing yet classy.  Ok, I'm beginning to ramble but you get it.  This style has different sides to it.  It can be classy and mature, it can be cute and sassy, or sexy and glamorous!

     Overall you can say today's look is just an Agejo look, through and through.  However maybe it's the demeanor?  The vibes are sweet, no?

     Also I see this as relating more to Himena Ousaki.  Numerous times you've seen Himena sporting MA*RS, but something about her style and execution still hints at 姫 / princess style.

     So that's what I mean about sweet Agejo.  I felt like "hime agejo" was too heavy a term for my look.  I definitely don't qualify for the Himegyaru aesthetic.  If "Hime Agejo" were a term, this is what comes to mind :

     Honestly that's the perfect way to describe Himena's style.  She owns being a sexy, glamorous princess!

     My makeup was a tiny nod at Himena as well!  Nowhere near as dramatic as her eyemake but the pink lenses and full top lashes are on brand (lol).

(unless ~ 👀)

     But anywho, this look turned out a lot more cohesive than I anticipated (lol).  And I'm happy with that!  I just wanted to look decent for my tiktok ∑d(°∀°d) !  Speaking of, here it is!
