Hello Egl ^^,
today i spotted on the fb page of a italian brand called "Baby Angel" sold at OVS (italian lolitas know this hehe XD!) the preview of the spring summer collection and i found there is an awesome replica of a lolita skirt. This brand made the last year also some cool replicas of Meta old items :D and also some lolitable cutsews. This is the skirt in pic although isn't the best quality, i tried to found some info at Lolibrary and Hello Lace but i didn't find anything about this replica reference :P.

First Wardrobe Post!
Jan. 30th, 2012 02:16 amThis is my first wardrobe post! I've only been seriously pursuing lolita for a few months, but I have had an interest since college. My wardrobe is very small, and not impressive, but I thought, maybe this will make me happy when it gets bigger. ^.^

Lolita and Guitars
Jan. 30th, 2012 04:00 amAfter recently getting into playing bass, it wasn't until a twitter post by Jeph Jacques that I finally thought of lolita and guitar playing...at the same time. Of course, leave it to the Japanese to have the best looking fancy guitars too! I've only given it a cursory glance, but ESP Guitars have stolen my heart as only burando has before, with guitars from Versailles, Dir En Grey, and even Mana.
( Guitars under the cut )
How much fun would it be to coordinate the perfect rockin' lolita outfits by guitar? I dream of owning a sweet instrument like this some day! (Or maybe several o_o) Does anyone else have lolita-esque instruments to share?

Help me find some skirt pics?
Jan. 30th, 2012 06:48 amI'm looking for pictures of skirts with a bustle in the back, similar to this- http://hellolace.net/wardrobe/baby/2006/skirt/baby_skirt_princess-130502_add1.jpg
I've searched hellolace.net and lolibrary.org, but I know that they don't have everything.
I'd prefer items that are gothic/classic in style and black.
I'm going to keep looking around, but any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Celga help
Jan. 30th, 2012 10:44 am Greetings to all of you, I'm starting to have a little dispute with the bidding company Celga. A couple of days after winning a two items on Mbok I get this over $300 invoice (which is ridiculous) so I decide to go over the invoice and I realize that they're charging me not only the bank fee, shipping within japan fee and their service fee (which I know they do and I was actually expecting), but they're also charging me the full price of the items won, which makes no sense, because I had already paid them, otherwise how could I have won the item in the first place. I'm terribly sorry for my English if you need more details please ask, I'm very very confused.
I'm aware that Celga's exchange rate is ridiculous but it still doesn't add up, I've done my calculations and it should be around $50 not $300, please help!
I haven't replied to them over this issue because I'm afraid of getting into a dispute which will result in me not getting my items.

My first wardrobe post
Jan. 30th, 2012 11:27 amI started building my wardrobe in May 2010. I'm still studying (I've just started university this year) so I can't really afford brand clothes, but I hope that one day I can buy all of the original dresses that I currently own as replicas.
Help me! The LJ cut doesn't want to work for me :(((

Forever 21 Blouse?
Jan. 30th, 2012 04:27 pmHi, I bought this blouse at Forever 21 and I'm not exactly sure if it meets the Lolita standards
Sorry for the crappy picture. ; ; Bad lighting in my room + bright red sheets.

GLB comics
Jan. 30th, 2012 04:41 pmHello, I was wondering if anyone knows where to find scans of those adorable and spiffy short comics at the end of the GLBs. I prefer them to be in Japanese and of decent quality (reading kanji is really hard with bad quality scans!), but scanslations are okay. I have a few comics by Nakamura Asumiko but I do enjoy Mitsukazu Mihara's works too.
I especially want to see more of Nakamura's works that involve a little girl, a guy who's a vampire hunter, and a vampire (I believe the first one in the series is "Long Along Alonging"). There was also a more recent comic in the newest GLB involving these characters too. The artwork and stories are simply too cute.

First wardrobe post~
Jan. 30th, 2012 04:46 pmLast year, I didn't make a wardrobe post, partly because I didn't think my wardrobe to be interesting enough and because I didn't have time to get everything out of my closet to photograph.
This year, I've been sick since saturday and stuck at home the whole time, so what better to do with your time than messing up your room and taking pictures of your clothes >.<

Forever21 Adorable Jewelry
Jan. 30th, 2012 07:10 pmHello ladies, I thought I'd jump on and share some adorable jewelry I saw while browsing Forever21’s website. This isn’t everything that was cute or useable in loli they had, just some that I thought stood out.

Where Should I Go?
Jan. 30th, 2012 08:10 pmHey all,
I am thinking of traveling to Tokyo at the end of Feb. I really want to check out all the coolest Lolita destinations.
For those of you who have been before, live there, and/or know of cool places to go...I would like to hear suggestions! Thanks!
I will most likely make a video about my trip and post it here.

Another Wardrobe Post
Jan. 30th, 2012 09:54 pmHaha, just jumping on the bandwagon here. This is more for me to see how much my wardrobe will have changed by next year. I haven't tried this before, so let's see how it goes. :)

( Image Heavy! Mostly Classic and Sweet. )
Finally got my luckypack from JetJ!
Was surprised how they were released this year! Last year we had a week of warning and an announcement on the front page, I think this year was just an email to members the day before? They also sold out REALLY quickly! I was having trouble with my address and credit card and by the time I'd sorted it out* Size 2 was already sold out.
*Well the address part at least - I had to contact JetJ and pay by paypal instead, luckily they had reserved my luckypack anyway and were very nice about it!
Also a warning for UK lolis/Tenso users! I used Tenso to avoid custom fees and marked the package as Y2,000 and a gift but yet I was still charged custom fees! HMRC have dropped the limit allowed for commercial products (non-gifts) to a mere £15 and Y2,000 is £16 >_< so yeah, for being £1 over the limit I had to pay an extra £23.57 and wait a week longer! NOT HAPPY! (I'd dispute but even though it's marked as a gift it does say from Tenso.com so I don't think I'd win)

Dream of Lolita Questions
Jan. 30th, 2012 10:57 pmHey ladies, so I've taken a look through the memories and couldn't find anything about this so I figured I'd ask here.
Have any of you ordered from Dream of Lolita? How do they do with plus size custom sizing?
What shopping service did you use for them? (I'm considering ClobbaOnline or Taobao)
The piece I'm considering is the Vampire Requiem replica skirt in red, has anyone bought it? How's the quality?
