¡Holaaaaa! \(≧▽≦)/

En uno de mis últimos pedidos recibí un pequeño catálogo de Maison Gilfy, concretamente de la temporada primavera/verano del año 2008 (una reliquia, vamos)... y como eran poquitas páginas, me he animado a escanearlo y compartirlo por aquí :D (gracias por descubrirme la maravillosa función de escaneo del iPhone, Sue! (´ ε ` )♡).

I received a small Maison Gilfy catalogue in one of my last orders, specifically from the spring/summer 2008 season (a treasure ♡). There were only a few pages, so I decided to scan and share it :D (thanks for discovering me the iPhone's marvellous scanning function, Sue! (' ε ` )♡).




El catálogo empieza con unas páginas de outfits, que la verdad son: (*°▽°*) me gustan mucho todos, pero definitivamente mi favorito es el que han utilizado para la portada ♡ sencillito pero sin perder el toque rockerillo gracias a los accesorios NoteNote (pienso copiar descaradamente este outfit este verano xD).

The catalogue starts with a few pages of outfits, which are: (*°▽°*)!!! I like them all, but definitely, my favourite is the one they used for the cover, ♡ simple but with a rocker touch thanks to the accessories NoteNote (I plan to copy this outfit this summer xD).

En la siguiente página le dedican una pequeña entrevista a la modelo/actriz/gravure idol invitada de este catálogo: Aki Hoshino. Si traductir de Google no me trolea, le preguntan un poco su opinión de la ropa de Gilfy y ReDark, cuándo vestiría las marcas, qué estilo suele llevar, alguna pregunta de self care...

On the next page, they dedicate a short interview to the guest model/actress/gravure idol of this catalogue: Aki Hoshino. In the interview, if Google Translate doesn't troll me (lol), they ask Aki about Gilfy and ReDark clothes, his style, some self-care questions...


En las siguientes páginas se puede encontrar toda la ropa y accesorios de temporada. Me llaman mucho la atención los sets de camiseta + gorro que se vendieron en las diferentes tiendas... EyeGlitter he buscado por Mercari a ver si encontraba alguna de las camisetas (me gustan los colores de la cami de Yokohama y Shibuya) y ha sido un gran FAIL (눈_눈) Seguiré buscando, porque cuando me encapricho de algo no paro hasta que lo encuentro... ( ̄▽ ̄)

Next, you can find all the seasonal clothing and accessories. I like a lot the T-shirt + hat set sold in the different stores  EyeGlitter I was looking in Mercari to see if I could find any of the T-shirts (I like the colours of Yokohama and Shibuya) and it was a big FAIL (눈_눈). I will keep looking bc when I get obsessed with something, I don't stop until I find it.... ( ̄▽ ̄)






Seeeguimos con más prendas de temporada y algunos outfits. Personalmente, veo que hay mucha ropa de manga larga o prendas no muy veraniegas o primaverales, ¿no creéis? Yo por ejemplo no me pongo unas botas altas a 38º, o llevo chaqueta o jersey de manga larga en verano... shock!Tomorrow

We continue with more seasonal clothes and some outfits. I see a lot of long sleeve clothes or not very summery or spring clothes. For example, I don't wear high boots at 38º or wear a jacket or long sleeve sweater in summer... shock!Tomorrow







Finalmente, las últimas páginas las dedican a mostrar la nueva colección de ReDark (marca que junto a Maison Gilfy y Backs operaban bajo la misma compañía, por eso aparecen de normal las 3 juntas en los diferentes catálogos). Volviendo a ReDark... nunca me ha llamado especialmente la atención (; ̄Д ̄), intenta ser un poco Amekaji pero menos vistosa y llamativa... se queda a medias y me llama 0 xD pero bueno, se pueden sacar ideas de outfits! DokidokiDokidoki

And finally, the catalogue ends showing the new ReDark collection, which is a brand that never particularly caught my attention (; ̄Д ̄); it tries to be an attempt to Amekaji but less flashy and eye-catching... meh xD but at least it's possible to get some outfit inspiration! DokidokiDokidoki

¡Y eso sería todo! Espero, con el tiempo, poder traer más scans de otros catálogos de Maison Gilfy que me vayan llegando... que tengo alguno más en camino ヽ(・∀・)ノ

And that's all! I hope to bring you more scans of other Maison Gilfy catalogues soon bc recent I buying some more, and they're on the way ヽ(・∀・)ノ

XoXo! (✧∀✧)/





Hellooooo!! 

Today's post is 100% in English bc I want to practice and improve! ヽ(・∀・)ノ (I know I'm going to make a lot of mistakes, sorry in advance). Also, I feel bad for my non-Spanish readers bc the Google Translator plugin is terrible (#><), so I'll try to have a bilingual blog from now! Wish me luck ( ̄▽ ̄*)ゞ

A few days ago was reading some gyaru blogs, and I saw this interesting Gyaru Card (I like to make challenges/tags/Q&A and stuff like "get to know me") made by Leia (a cute gyaru from Italy), so... I'm going to create my version! (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄) Let's go!

☆ Your Nickname/Gyaru/Blogger name:
Exilia  / HeyExilia on social media╰(▔∀▔)╯

☆ Birthday:
31/05/1991. Yes, I'm turning 30 this year... (。T ω T。)

☆ Zodiac Sign/Blood Type:
Gemini (♊︎) / 0-

☆ Your Style:
Rokku/GILFY style (very soft and casual version xD) 

☆ Fav Style:
Rokku/GILFY style ♡

☆ Fav Era/Year:
2008~2014! Those years rokku became so popular, and all the mags were full of super inspiring outfits and makeups, and brands like GILFY were super popular too! (*^^*)♡

☆ Top 5 Jap Gyaru models:

1. Maipuu / Mai Miyagi [Ameblo / Instagram]


Okay, let's start with the QUEEN. Some months ago was looking for scans from old JELLY's (from 2008 to 2014), and I fall in love with all the JELLY girls... especially with Maipuu and Maichi. I love how charismatic they are in all articles and photoshoots. And usually, they modeled for GILFY catalogs and mooks too, so... pure perfection. ♡

2. Maichi / Maiko Takahashi [Ameblo / Instagram]


JELLY QUEEN number 2 (⌒▽⌒)☆. She was one of the most representative, famous, and charismatic models of the JELLY mag. Also, she was the image of some brands like Jerry Girl, Narvanna Wig, Aroot, Bless Tokyo, Juriano Jurrie, etc.

3. Manya / Manami Suzuki [Ameblo / Instagram]


Everyone involved in the community knows who Manami Suzuki is (or Manya). It's impossible doesn't know her name. I liked her a lot when she was at EGG magazine and especially when she modeled for Backs ('。• ᵕ •。`). 

4. Maaami [Instagram]


My gosh, I'm obsessed with this cutie, and his smile (♡°▽°♡) when I saw EGG's new-generation models for the first time, Maaami immediately caught my attention. She looks pure, funny, and a lovely person (*≧ω≦*), and I love her makeup and outfits!

5. Kyiiripu [Instagram]


Her eye make is EVERYTHING (*♡∀♡) The QUEEN of EGG's new generation models. She has a lot of potentials and gives off 100% gyaru spirit.

☆ Fav Magazine:
EGG was the first gyaru magazine I discovered which I have a special affection, but actually, I get more inspiration from old JELLY's ヽ(>∀<☆)ノ

☆ Top 5 Brands:
Can I put GILFY 5 times? (´ ∀ ` *)...

1. MAISON GILFY (メゾンギルフィー)


No more words, GILFY is love, GILFY is life... best Japanese brand EVER!

2. BACKS (バックス)


If you love GILFY, you love Backs too. I'm obsessed with their unique aesthetic (ノ´ヮ`)ノ*: ・゚ (monotone colors, menswear styling, cropped pants/shorts, ankle boots, tick-rimmed glasses, and of course all their denim pieces and sets...).

3. JSG (ジェーエスジー)


I have a strange relationship with this brand (; ̄Д ̄). I like it a lot, but I would never wear an entire JSG outfit (bc I don't like haady). So I love some specific JSG items (one of them, the famous English flag sweater that you'll see a few outfits below ('ω `♡)).

4. d.i.a (ダイア)


D.i.a, another super popular brand I like for two reasons: first, their AMAZING belts, a must item in all gal's closet╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ Aaaand second, their clothes with bohemian touches (a lot of feathers!).

5. Ghost of Harlem (ゴーストオブハーレム)


A lovely brand (because of Sakurina, basically), I like it a lot, but I didn't have any items yet x'D. When I'm satisfied with my GILFY clothing collection, I'll start buying GOH clothes! (♡°▽°♡)

  5. Ghost of Harlem stuff: Need to start my GOH collection :D 


And that's all! I've omitted the part about advising baby gals bc I'm a beginner/baby gal, too. xD and although I've been in the gyaru world for years (not being involved directly, just a fan of the style), it was only a few months ago I was encouraged to introduce myself to gyaru. So I need to learn from other beautiful gals with much more experience than me ^^

XoXo! (✧∀✧)/
