International Gyaru Lovers winter meet-up Frankfurt (pic and text heavy~ 71 photos!)

Hello everyone ^o^
 wow~ it's been 5 weeks or something?..since I wrote the last blogpost... but I've been very busy with my bachelor thesis... 

But today I wanna blog about the international gyaru winter meet-up in Frankfurt that I attended two weeks ago with my friends ^o^


We left Berlin friday in the evening via ICE to go to Frankfurt (Main).
my simple outfit friday evening
me and my luggage ^^°
the whole cabin for us *o* we used it for eating...
...and for funny post-it-forehead-terms-guessing-game ^^° (wer bin ich, Zettel vorm Kopf)
Well, we arrived at Frankfurt around 11pm. 
whole group sitting in the hotel lounge
... exhausted Lau
The next morning everyone was busy with preparing the look for the meet-up. Hair, make-up, outfit, accessories.... XP you know what I mean!
We had 3 hotel rooms so I couldn't take photos of the other girls... Here is Hani who was doing Maos hairstyle^^
I did everything on my own! I don't like other people doing my hair or make-up or something...I only trust myself in case of styling XD
first photo of my finished hairstyle~
finished make-up... not satisfied with the eyebrows...-.-°
I borrowed the dress+collar (d.i.a.) from Tine^^ thanxx <3 (It's the most beautiful dia-dress ever! I'd really like to buy it no matter what colour... but I'm always too late...)
finished with cardigan and boots <3
dress + collar - d.i.a.

belt - d.i.a. replica
cardigan - Kik
boots - Osco (fur details selfmade)


Everyone met at 1pm at at Frankfurt central station.

My camera is not made for indoor photos.... overexposed or blurred -.-°

Afterwards we all had to fill in our votes for the Gyaru Lovers Avards in different categories!
the form
The categories were: make up, coordinate, hair, coord and hair for gyaruos, Agejo, Hime, Tsuyome/kuro gyaru, Rokku, roma/sweet gyaru, kindest gyaru, most original look, Mrs. and Mr. Gyaru/o.
I won't tell you all the winners because it's too confusing when you don't have a face to all the names... an I did not take photos of all the winners...^^°

Noone of our group won in a category (of course not... we're not so famous^^°) but Hani was voted into the 3 best in category Rokku. And Senja was voted into the 3 best in category Hime gyaru^^. And I was voted into the 3 best in the hair category! Little bit proud^^°...
