Hello!
I'm brand new, and since you guys seem to love the look as much as I do, I decided why not, ne?
I just recently ordered a EGL outfit from Baby the Stars Shine Bright through a japanese shopping service.
Prices aren't so bad you guys!
About as much as you would spend on a nice vynil dress from Lip Service{and I purchased 3 items}
One thing that made me pout a little was the sizing[which in their case it makes sense, but damnit, I want more US girls to own this stuff!]
When I asked about sizing I was told that the company {Baby the Stars Shine Bright} only made the clothing for a specific size which was:
Height:5'4
34-25.5-35
Pooh...and their biggest shoe size goes up to a 7.5, and I'm an 8.5, otherwise I would've bought a pair of shoes also.
I really can't wait for Metamorphose to get ready for overseas shipping, and hopefully they will have a lot more size varieties!!
^_^
Anyways, it's good to be here, and I will surely post pics of when I get my outfit!

Sure!
The website I use is Crescent Trading{Link (http://www.crescent-shop.com/)}
They do charge about a 25% fee for using their services, but trust me it is worth it. There is another one called Frill Frill, but that one is used for smaller orders.
The guy who runs Crescent is amazingly nice and his english is perfect! Very reliable, and if the price is too much he's willing to work with you on it[as far as the final price]
I already ordered two of the Lolita wigs, and they got to me in no time!
I'm pretty sure Metamorphose will change their sizing options once they have a pretty well established market overseas. So many people want this style, how could they not?
But I read in an EGL mailing list that since their sales aren't that high, and they are small retailers, that they make a select few sizes. Not only that, but the range of body sizes over there is relatively narrow compared to the ones here.
I hope everyone gets this! that way we can all swap piccies of the stuff we bought!

I can't wait to see! I saw the pics on your journal, very lovely! I tried contacting that one locator service, but they haven't gotten back to me yet ;_;.

I know, me either...
He actually e-mailed me telling me that he tried to contact you but that he was unable.
You might wanna give it another try ^_~
