Welcome to Rainbow Chiffon! This blog will contain blog entries about stuff I feel like sharing with the Gyaru community or my other friends who are interested in fashion! Feel free to comment or email me! I love meeting new people!
Also, this is where I talk about Yelping/reviewing restaurants with Billy, my baked goods, and stuff that I've cooked. ♥
Since I want to be a Gyaru, I really want to get to know people and talk to them. Hopefully, they can give me advice on makeup, clothing styles, or even just adding stuff to my style! I know I'm not truly Gyaru yet but it's kind of hard...
And why is it hard? Because the Gyaru community, it feels like, are separated from one another. There's always some kind of drama (especially on the infamous Gyaru Secrets) or that people just don't have time to update a blog every day or comment every where.
This was mostly inspired by a post on the Forever Gyaru Forums about how to gain more followers and comments but, it's something it's been on the back of my mind for a while now... Well, also, I was inspired by the Lolita Blog Carnival group as well.
So what I was thinking of doing - we can also start a group as Gyarus (and aspiring Gyarus, of course) where we blog once a week or so about a particular topic and we can comment on each other's posts and follow each other!
Of course, I'd be willing to help hosting this but I would like to have another Gyaru (actually, a more experienced one) because I don't think I can think of all the questions by myself or topics or maybe even activities for us to do with one another!
What do you think? Feel free to post questions, comments, ideas, or whatever! I would hate to see the Gyaru community fall apart because of the drama. I really want at least to try to be friends with people and learn more about Gyaru and what it means to be Gyaru!

The nickname is Lily. Born in August 27, 198(X) (which makes her a Virgo & a Fire Rabbit). Currently in Arizona, United States.
Other interests include watching anime, reading manga, writing, video games, baking, listening to Japanese & Korean music, tweeting, sleeping, learning about technology, writing, and others she can't remember.
Kinda shy, kinda quiet. Gets grumpy when hungry or sick. Can be critical towards others but generally very nice and has patience. Otherwise, she likes to have fun, eat, joke around, talk crap about music idols, and sleep. She's nice 99.9% of the time unless she's having one of those days.
This blog started out as a school project in April 2012 but soon became an addiction!
As with most Gyaru blogs, I'm going to do reviews!
Disclaimer
The reviews I leave are strictly my opinion as well as to be considered constructive criticism. My intention is not to come off as harsh, mean, rude or as an attacker but to give the item or store a (hopefully) fair judgement based on my experiences and knowledge.
If you have any questions, comments, or if you want me to review your products, feel free to contact me!
The purpose of “Quick Look-Through” is to, well, quickly look through an online shop that sells to Gyarus all over the world without actually having to buy anything. I would, of course, want to review those when I do manage to get it but until then…
I’m going to be blunt: I don’t have any money to spend on these Gyaru online shops. As much as I want to, there’s just no way I can do it now or maybe even in the future. Or in the odd time that I do have money, I’m rather picky about what I expect and want from these shops. Great navigation, good colors, awesome products with affordable prices and the likelihood of reaching an international market (let’s be real here – we Gyarus come from all over the world).
I will only look through online stores that at least have an English option.

It is understandable if you have any questions, comments, or inquiries. Please feel free to leave a comment or contact me and I will get back to you.
These are past websites that I have done a Quick Look-Through of. They're in alphabetical order.
There are just especially important memories that I've shared with everyone on Rainbow Chiffon! They're going to be organized by the year (top being the most recent).
Past restaurants that Billy and I have been to before. This is just a collection of reviews. They're going to be organized by the year (top being the most recent).
