Clothes

Clothes are the main focus of this aesthetic and follow a specific structure. I will divide this post into four parts: tops, bottoms, shoes and accessories.

Tops

Having the right top to construct an outfit is very important. Tops have to be long, ending below the waist. They either have lace, bows ruffles, empire waists or baby doll tops work too. Layering is also important, either having an extra lace camisole or a fitted button down under or a cardigan, or even a vest. The tops have to be body hugging which accentuates and creates a more feminine silhouette. Puffy, flutter or 3/4 sleeves work great but sleeveless top's can also be seen in media. Colors are mostly muted and neutral like white, cream, black, grey, brown, and for pops of color: muted red's, blue's, mauve's. For some more inspiration you can look at aesthetics and styles like coquette, fairy grunge, himekaji and roma gyaru. School uniforms are also a big inspiration.

Bottoms

For bottoms, everything is pretty basic. Pleated, ruffled, tiered or a-line mini skirts work best. They can have lace details, bows or even pomp pomp's. Mini shorts and capris are also popular. Capris can be layered under skirts and dresses like seen in some recent trends inspired by the 00s. Bottoms can have subtle patterns like plaid, polka dots or stripes, though it's less common.

Shoes

With shoes it is also very simple. Knee high boots are the most popular in media usually brown shades of color, they can have buckles or laces or even fur trim. For a more feminine look, mary-janes are a great choice and there are a lot of different styles, heel height and so on. Flats are also a great choice as well as loafers. Unfortunately, although most practical, sneakers do not fit the aesthetic.

Accessories

Socks and tights are a major key point in dressing like this aesthetic. Knee-high and anything above like thigh-high socks look the best and are the most popular. They are usually in dark shades like black or grey but anything works as long as you stick to the color palette. For tights, look for sheer ones or knitted ones as they can give a cozy look. You can also accessorize with garters, though they should be simple. Accessories around the neck are also very important. Lockets, pendents or small, dainty necklaces can really complete a look. Even just taking a piece of ribbon and tying it with a bow gives a very cute look. Any bracelets should be dainty.
