Sorts of Decora! ;)

While I've been searching for Decora pictures in the past, I've found little differences in the different kinds of Decora that there are.

These differences aren't 'official', they're just a few that I've found myself, and given names for myself. You shouldn't go around declaring yourself a "Pink Decora" to the word, or even start disliking the other types of decora, (like other styles that have different sub-styles within them tend to do). I thought of these myself as a way of telling the difference between different types of Decora. If you can think of others, don't hesitate to e-mail me :3

"Childish Decora"
This kind of Decora can be a part of any other kind, or a completely seperate style altogether. This is where the Decora-chan wear tutus or shirts that have pictures of cartoon or anime characters, or any other image from their childhood. These Decora tend to wear a lot of toys, tiaras and magic wands. I personally think that this is the most 'personal' form of Decora as you can really show off your inner child and who you are.
Tips: Don't forget all the cartoons and animes you like, especially the ones you watched as a kid. Don't make the same mistake I did, which is to only think about kawaii animes that are around now. Lots of Japanese Decora-chan wear SpongeBob stuff, so what you wear doesn't necessarily have to be Japanese!
Consider: My Little Pony, Pokemon, Digimon, SpongeBob Squarepants, Sanrio and San-X characters like Hello Kitty and My Melody, anything childish that you love or used to love ^___^


"Pink Decora"
I don't think this needs explaining, do you? ^_~ Pink Decora is all about that amaaaazing colour - PINK PINK PINK! Probably the only other colour you should consider is white, even if that isn't even a colour! This is probably the most popular Decora and has the most rules. Absolutely everything must be pink!
Tips: Get all the pink things out of your wardrobe and put them all together! If you HAVE to have another colour, try a tiny bit of red, but do everything you can to keep your look as pink as possible!
Consider: Polka dots are always good for this look. Also, try some white and pink or black and pink stripy tights! ^__^


"Colourful Decora"
This is the ideal that everyone who first gets into Decora wants to believe in - that Decora is all about being colourful and crazy. This look is completely adorable and is easily achievable with just the right amount of balance in different colours. This type of Decora is just so kawaii and allows you to be totally creative with hardly any boundaries.
Tips: Make sure you get the right balance of colours. Too much of one colour can can change the look completely! Colourful hair is also really cool! Try not to go for clothes that have the colours of the rainbow in their order, this can be too, well, rainbowy o.o
Consider: Lots and lots of accessories of all different colours! Don't pick just your favourite colours while looking for accessories, anything will do, and all the different colours put together will look sugoi! ^__^

"Dark Decora"
With Japanese fashion becoming more and more interested in the Gothic and Visual Kei look, the number of Dark Decora-chan are growing. If you're perhaps on the darker end of the fashion spectrum and not too keen on the idea of wearing bright pink, then this is the style for you. Dark Decora shares many of the same ideas as other Decora, such as the over-accessorising and carrying lots of toys, but the colours don't tend to be there. If colours are worn, they're normally lime green, purple or red.
Tips: If you like being gothic or emo to stand out from the crowd, trying Dark Decora will make you stand out even more! Just add lots of accessories to your normal look and it'll be great! Of course, you could go to the extreme and wear purely black and nothing else! It's totally up to you!
Consider: Kuromi, Badtz Maru and Gloomy Bear are great kawaii-yet-dark characters for you to check out. These will totally shift your look to the Decora side. ^__^


"Lolicora"
Lolicora, or Lolita Decora, is a mixture between these two Japanese fashions. This style can combine almost any Lolita style with Decora, by adding all the cute accessories attributed to Decora.
Tips: Make sure you're familiar with the Lolita style if you want to achieve this look effectively! Lolita styles can be quite strict!
