I am never trusting Baby's site again!

[ugly-kitties.livejournal.com]

Why? Because I made another obsessive visit to Kinokuniya today, despite knowing I am out of Baby's general size range, and started putting dresses up to myself for my own amusement, etc etc. Okay, so you know how there's that rough test you can do with clothes on the rack when there's no fitting room around (like in a bookstore) where if the side seams of the clothing on the hanger just about reach the side seams of the clothes you're wearing, then it fits?

I thought to myself, wow, that parfait onepiece looks huge on the rack, lawlz that can't be right though! and gave it the seam test for fun. And, um, it seemed to fit. Please note I have nowhere near a 70cm waist.

xD I just thought this would interest/amuse some of you, cos it sure amused me (and interested my wallet).

I have never seen any Japanese brand, let alone regular, clothing in my Kinokuniya... But that does seem interesting...

[moineau.livejournal.com]

Just wondering - where there any pink x white OPs/JSKs? D: I haven't had a chance to go in to look and it's kiiiilling me.

[maetel9.livejournal.com]

OMG!!!
i hope they still have some Baby stuff left when i go in Nov

(btw just checking to make sure you got my payment for the IW bonnet)

[ugly-kitties.livejournal.com]

Yeahhhh there were.

Sadly, they were both some of Baby's blah-est (http://www.babyssb.co.jp/shopping/jumper/130230/130230-pw.jpg) designs (http://www.babyssb.co.jp/shopping/jumper/130233/130233-pw.jpg). :X Unless I missed there being any more, I mean everything on those racks has a habit of falling on you if you wanna look past the first two things on the rack. (DUMB ARRANGEMENT? I THINK YES)

[ugly-kitties.livejournal.com]

Yup I got it, I'll ship out tuesday morning (classeeees x_x;) and notify you of anything and everything!

lol, I doubt they'll be running out anytime soon... Gooood I wish I could fit that Alice and the Pirates skirt they have. T_T Or the Alice print skirts.

[redninjawinz.livejournal.com]

I have this (http://www.babyssb.co.jp/shopping/onepiece/130319.html) OP from baby and was very pissed when I got it. It's actually two pieces, an underskirt and the main over dress. The site lists the max waist as 80cm and this is true kind of, the waist of the over skirt is more like 30" and the underskirt is more like 48" stretched. I don't understand why they did that but what can you do.

[moineau.livejournal.com]

Man. D: It always figures that when I'm about to crack for something pink x white, there's never any of the designs I really like.

I KNOW! haha. It was sort of like that at Otakon, too. I remember just feeling especially akward trying to pick out what I wanted, and my friend just giving me an "oh god why" look.

[sky-tipped.livejournal.com]

how much is the markup anyway?

[ugly-kitties.livejournal.com]

It's more or less like... take the yen price and instead of converting it to dollars, just move the decimal two places to the left and replace the ¥ with a $. xD Basically.

[cidsa.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, I feel bad :(
It just beckoned to me, it's so darn pretty. Although, I'm having trouble accessorizing it. Perhaps we could trade or something?

[cidsa.livejournal.com]

I found it to be close to what you would pay if you ordered it from Baby+the conversion and shipping.

[cidsa.livejournal.com]

Well don't worry about me, I'm too poor to get anything else right now.
I hope you get it :D

[redninjawinz.livejournal.com]

That might work. You want me to email you or something.

[carmila.livejournal.com]

Baby is much better on the sizing than Meta. I have to Baby Sheering Topped JSKs and they fit my 40" bust with lots of room to spare! I mean tons. I have always though that in terms of some bust sizing (with sheering atleast) for Baby has been a bit conservative. Waist sizing....it is pretty much on the mark.

[cidsa.livejournal.com]

Sure, send me an email at smackfly@yahoo.com and lemme know what you'd be willing to trade ^^
I'll probably be going to the meetup so we could exchange things there if you'd like :3
