Baaah I can't seem to find any really good places that ship to the US for okay/reasonable prices. I've been to AsiaJam and Metamorphases (I LOVE that store), but baah I don't know. I haven't had much luck anywhere else. Help please?

well, where do you live? i live in nyc and i see lots of japanese speciality stores and they usually have simple pieces like stockings, gloves, or aprons.

i would also try eBay or maybe custom/handmade websites. people go there for like lotr costumes. i'm sure there are some. Like this one: CLICK.

I live in Pittsburgh, PA. Baah. Well hopefully when/if I go to school in New York, I'll get my own then. laugh.gif Meh I looked there before - nearly everything is sold out. These sites never get restocked or they don't update.

Oh, I have a friend here who absolutely loves lolita clothes and she has to order them all off of Ebay. As if there would be any Japanese specialty stores here. laugh.gif

I mean, I love the clothes as well, but I would be like...afraid to wear them here, pathetic as it may seem. I already get made fun of for the "weird" clothes I wear. Going lolita would just be too much.

Here are some of the other sites I go to, although I'm not sure if all of them ship to the US:
Blasphemina's Closet
Delirium
Candy Fruit
Avant Gauche - Under the links section on this website, you can find a lot of stores. :D

What does it matter what they think? Ignore them. I could care less if someone directly pointed me out and called me a freak or something. It's my life - I'll choose how I wish to dress. I could give a rat's arse what you think of my decisions. Well, not you, but you know what I mean. Haha. And thank you. ^
