Basically what the title says. How does it feel when your 'deco' yourself and flaunt that cuteness to people? Did anyone ridicule you or praise your looks? I'm a bit curious how your experiences went.

Here's mine =]]

Last year i discovered Fruits, Decora, and the sorts from the Fuits and Gothic Lolita books my cousin gave me for christmas. I was thrilled to see the different styles and how cute it was. Though she said the style was from the 90s I googled decora and saw how even more cute it has gotten! Inspired I raided all the pink in my closet and accessorized from head to toe. I felt so confident and awesome. When I went to school the next day I got some pretty odd stares. I didn't really expect that and I felt even more self conscious about how i looked. My friends told me I looked cute but mean stares can really get to a girl, y'know? it was until I went to the mall a couple weeks later. i (trying) to be decora again and while in the Apple Store A little girl approached me. She told me that i was really cute and she wanted to take a picture with me! (I know I almost fainted with the embarrassment!) After that my mind changed. Even through a thousand mean stares there's always that one glistening one that knows your cute!

awww... thats a really cute story.

Mine: I was a deco harajuku girl last halloween.  So, I don't think anyone found me weird at that time.  I really want to wear deco with some friends here, but it seems so hard to find the right outfits.

i wore deco on campus last year. all pinky with hello kitty hair clips a'ton and all accessorized up...i only remember my computer teacher was the only one who made any indication that i noticed in regard to me "looking different." i dont remember his comment but it didnt bother me though it might have been a little rude, something along the lines of am i going out today o.0 Lol! im surprised i didnt notice anyone looking at me. i guess my confidence took over in deco wear! 8) coolness! gosh sweetie i love your story its touching and exactly the kind that decoras and girls of every japanese fashion subcategory love to hear and hope to experience! oh my gosh i bet you looked so cute though! i would have totally loved you upon seeing you lol! xD

In 7th grade I found a stash of old hair barrets I had when I was little and I decided to wear them all at once too celabrate a close friend said wow you look so decora and thus I found out what decora was I wore it a lot that summer but I don't  wear it so mutch any more.

as a kid i was used to wearing loads of bows or colorful clips :))

another thing i usually get the stares no matter what i wear..
i just dunno why? but then  i got used to it..

and i havent heard one weird comment yet? oh except for my dad haha!
my classmates/friends even says that i carry clothes so well
at school, were not allowed to wear casual clothes (bec we have a uniform) but still i accesorize my bags with lots of pins :) my hair with clips my phone with gems and loads of charms ^^ some teachers and staffs even praise me for that some even says i look korean? haha LOL and that i look like a freshmen (when im already on my 3rd year im still being mistaken as a freshie LOL)

i hope one day i could wear decora with some friends ^^

  

 

yeah so many people glare at me at school! ah well I still have my friends ;3

 Whenever I go out in public I either get stared at or they freak out and say that i'm the cutest thing they have ever seen. haha and a lot of the time I meet someone who is a decora, other style or used to be decora and it makes my happy.

 

 

How long have you had pink hair decoramuffin?

I've only worn Decora out in public a few times, but never at school. You are much braver than I. xD

haha i get alot of odd stares, too. but then there are also people who stare cuz they think ur cute or whatever.. anyhow decora better than being all emotional and depressed =P at least we have fun, u noe~

A couple years ago (in high school) I dressed decora nearly every day. I became known for it, and I eventually would get more comments on my off days "Why arent you dressed up today?!"

 

I had one class where I made a group of friends who admired me for how I dressed, they nicknamed me rainbow sunshine. But this girl who always seemed to be in a bad mood, my friends heard her saying stuff about me, that I dressed like a 10 year old or something, and they got REALLY mad. But I told them that it didn't matter, that its okay for people to say things like that because the way I dress makes me happy regardless. And I looked super cute that day, I remember, all pastel rainbows.

 

Other than that, Ive gotton random complements as well as people taking pictures slyly (once or twice I was approached). Little girls are the most outspoken, of course, they will point at you and say things outloud where you can hear them, and their moms always try to shush them. Its cute!

genrally my response is good apart from the odd people, but i have half my hair shaved off so being used to nasty comments it just provokes me to do it more. decora just makes life just that little bit more exciting and pinker aha..anddd it makes you feel brilliant when you do it
