Dress Anime

Tired of wearing boring clothes? Can't find your own style? Do you want to dress like an anime character? Well, this article may help you!

Steps

  1. Note how the way the characters dress fits in with their personality. Then apply that to yourself. .
  2. Find an anime character that you want to look like. Study what they wear, how they act, and how they do their hair.
  3. Make a list of their clothes and things you may need to buy to make the outfits/hair styles.
  4. Find somewhere where you can experiment with your style without getting interrupted!
  5. Wear lots of wristbands and jewelry.
  6. Purchase shirts with anime characters on them.
  7. Buy tons of accessories, the more, the better. For example: beanies with ears, bows, hairbands and ribbons... etc.
  8. Get your hair cut and/or colored like your favorite anime character. Ask permission from your parents first.
  9. Put anime pins on your purse, and keychains on your backpack.
  10. Get anime wristbands.
  11. Get an authentic Japanese kimono.

Girls

  1. Long, over-the-knee socks in either black, white or grey are often worn. Try getting ones with ribbons at the top.
  2. Consider looking like a lolita. Frilly skirts can look really cute. Scope out as many different shops as you can. You need not spent a fortune on a skirt, as charity shops and thrift shops usually have hidden gems when it comes to clothing.
  3. Try wearing short leggings that end about two to three inches above your knees if wearing a really short skirt. You don't want to show your underwear!
  4. Try to layer your tops. Wear a plain strap top under shirts, cardigans or low cut jumpers. Try to make them have cute patterns, ribbons or badges.
  5. If you wish to wear a dress make it a cute ruffled dress.
  6. Carry around appropriate objects. A teddy or a sweet backpack can work wonders to make your outfit come together.*

Boys

  1. Layer your tops. Wear a longer sleeved one underneath a short sleeved one for a really hot look.
  2. Get a pair of amazing trainers. They shouldn't be white, and try to get coloured laces or even coloured shoes.
  3. Either a jacket or man-cardigan is essential for colder days. Try to get it in black, dark blue or the colour your favourite anime character wears.
  4. If your favourite anime character is a "neko-boy" (half cat), you could even get a pair of cat ears, or make your own, this applies to the girls as well.
