ACNL status symbols

The Ice Cream Sundae hat is my symbol.

My town is...basically all flowers >~> No paths... probably a lot of hybrids I can't even tell anymore.

Yeah, my own town is currently overrun by flowers and fruit trees so it's a jungle. I kinda envy the high status dream towns with the super pretty paths and stuff so I wanna clean it up. Eventually.

Take a shot each time you see a character wearing the Hair bow wig c:

Most definately the hairbow wig, the crown, and the surgical mask. I don't feel clothing really can be a status symbol, because most people use QR clothing. But I feel like everyone has the hairbow wig, and if not then they're wearing a crown xD

In fairness though, I think it's more that these items are adorable and go with most girly outfits, more than it's a status thing. I have some of my themed mule villagers wearing those, more because they're cute than anything.

I don't understand the surgical mask/eye patch thing though. But I've never been into goth culture, or Asian style (I think I've seen pictures of Asian girls wearing themed surgical masks as a fashion statement...? -is oblivious-)

In Tokyo, you often see people wearing surgical masks if they are sick to keep from spreading the germs and illness. It's considered a courtesy. Germaphobes also wear them there to protect themselves from germs. But in the 1990s, I think, when Yankee gangster culture was popular in Japan, some gang members would surgical masks as a means to hide their identity. This made it's way into pop culture -- IE Arisa Uotani from the shoujo manga Fruits Basket often did this -- and was thus, popularized once again as a statement of rebellion.

Okay ^that was interesting!

I like the stuff that's cute, so one day I'll have a hairbow wig and I will wear it with the cake tank dress.

I do sometimes wear a crown with a qr dress.

I also like the coin wig with the pharaoh dress.

I am currently wearing the girls day updo with the green kimono. (Blossom dress?)

I don't mind seeing a lot of others wearing what I am - I just like what I think is cute

I remember the hairbow wig was a huuuuuge thing way back when New Leaf first came out. People were paying millions for one e_e

I don't get why they go for that much. I got mine for the Gracie Grace for like 5000 bells or whatever.

Tortoise glasses are my status symbol o 3 o

I've seen a lot of people wear the straw boater.
Not afraid to admit that my mayor wears it too and looks hella cute in it.
