And that is absolutely ok🫶🏻
You could do a post about Yui and her outfits when she was still living with her father in the church (along with some headcanons)? It's canon that Yui had a rather austere and humble life, so I'm guessing her clothes were always used or second hand.
It's longer than I expected-
Fashion Headcanon - a Yui Komori lookbook
Humble coquette meets the church girl roaming in a forest full of violets.
-Her colour palette is soft. So, so soft.
-Beige, white, pale pink, baby blue mixed with bits of faded navy blue and brown.
-Loves plaid pattern or those very delicate floral designs on clothes, colours slightly washed out, making everything cohesive.
-Doesn't mind vibrant colours in general. She finds beauty in many, many things but she knows that jewel shades will look garnish on her.
-Yui prefers when her clothes aren't too tight around her chest. Her tops are generally puff sleeved, off-shoulder with ruffles on the neckline to blur the shape of her torso.
-That, even before those fuckers would make her self-conscious about her chest. Pricks.
-When wearing tank tops or t-shirts, she would wear a cardigan or a wrap-up top that has subtle strips of white lace at the end of its sleeves.
-She's simply more confortable with showing her legs or her shoulders. For instance, she loves how her pale curls fall and brush the line of her shoulders. (but the diaboys too😔)
-Knitted mittens, square necklines, lacy lolita socks, vintage chiffon blouse embedded with little flowers, myosotis, daisies, stars of Bethlehem.
-She knows how to sew and to mend her clothes when it's needed. She is cautious with her belongings though.
-Wears second-hand clothes. Because life at the church was obviously more austere and Yui grew without the materialistic need to buy and own stuff just to see it piled up in her closet. Plus, she never wanted to appear spoiled rotten or anything.
-But she likes second hand clothes also because the fabric is soft. It's comforting for her to know that the clothes she owns now, had a life before.
-These grandma blouses with small embroidered details on the sleeves or on the collar ? Stan.
-Second hand fashion allowed her to explore a different sense of fashion - to create outfits that looked good on her and not trying to look like models in magazines. So you can find a sweet blending of reminiscent 2000s and 60s fashion in the way she dresses.
-Keeps her outfits simple and practical all in all, because she's known for being quite active.
-She cooks, cleans, helps the nuns in the garden or during charitable works.
-Therefore, she would never wear heels too high, skirts too long or too short.
-When going out to do some groceries, she always ends up looking at some shops, as there is something soothing for her in watching all these different clothes and shoes displayed behind the window. She doesn't buy anything, but she envies just a little bit the groups of girls who enter these shops, giggling and ready to buy something nice.
-No jeans or leather jackets like the girls of her age. Her father didn't allow her to wear those - he never even bought her clothes.
-Well. Not never never, but until very late, Seiji would only gift her books, stationary supplies, some tea...but never clothes, makeup or jewellery. This, combined with a certain solitude and the absence of a feminine figure in her life, Yui didn't have much choice but to observe a lot. She wanted to care about her appearance. She didn't know how at first.
-Interestingly, books and art influenced her style. Without even realising it, Yui would become the modern version of spring faerie, living a peaceful life in rhythm with the bell and the services.
-Spends hours making jewellery.
-The floral hair pins and the matching necklace? Her doing.
-She is crafty and loves doing activities that require patience and creativity, pearls glistening under the sun, tinkering with little hearts and stars. Nothing complicated. Just what she needs to give that graceful faerie twist to her outfit.
-She works like this, at her vanity or on a bench outside, in front of the garden for hours. Sewing or crafting the most precious details that no one except her will notice. She works until her eyes are tired and the tea remaining at the bottom of her cup is cold. But it is during time like this, that she feels the most a peace. The happiest.

men litcherally don’t get body insecurity the way women do. we feel so uncomfortable with our bodies that many of us don’t even like taking about it or acknowledging that we have bodies. men really are like “i tell my gf that she’s hot but she’s still insecure.. wtf???” like FUCK god you don’t GET IT!!!! you don’t. fucking. get. IT. what it’s like to be a stranger in your own body, to want to burn down the home you live in. you think some dude she’s fucking tells her she’s beautiful and that erases a lifetime of self-hatred. i want to eat myself, litcherally consume myself Whole and throw it back up and some dude thinking i’m hot could never change that. women really are injected with so much self hate from the time we are children that by the time we are women it’s incurable and men really think they can change that by calling you hot once……….die
