Hi everyone^_^!!

Most people have seen the dresses/ replicas that we've been doing and now the seamstress is moving on to new dresses for fall and winter. She'll follow the brands. 
In this entry

(second half of the entry) 
shows you a few sneak previews. However this is her choice of dresses she wants to do but is there any "specific" dresses. Like ALL time favorite by most people? How about those coats from Angelic Pretty last year o.o would anyone be interested in those, or replicas of the Angelic Pretty coats this comming winter?

We love comments suggestions constructive critz, it helps out a ton

Many Thanks 
Tracy and Viki

(This is my first post((If I remember correctly x_x;;)), so I'm really sorry if I do something wrong >_<)

Okay, so I've searched EGL, and either there isn't anything I need, or I'm really bad at using search.

But I'm looking for pictures of busty lolis in empire waisted JSKs or OPs. I read in one of the posts I found, that some busty lolis end up going for empire waisted dresses, but then I read some members say they didn't look good in them *because* of their bust.

So I'm quite torn on how empire waisted dresses look on busty girls. So I'm very interested in seeing your pictures. I'm also interested in seeing *any* pictures with empire waisted dresses too if you are willing to share :)
Thanks for your help :)

Ok, so it isn't terribly related to EGL specifically... but I thought a lot of us could relate. (What with waiting for packages with the magical little EMS number)

An XKCD Comic about tracking numbers

There have been alot of threads about the Paris Baby store, but I have some specific questions. Last night I found out I will be in Paris for a Video Game Championship from the 3rd to the 10th of July (Next week!!!) and I totally want to hit up the Baby store. I have a few specific questions for those lovely Euro (Parisian) Lolis:

1. For a tourist, is the store easy to find? ( I have never been to Paris)
2. Do they have AatP stuff there as well?
3. How bad are the prices in comparison to the website?
4. Is there any place around there to get tea? (Since of course I will be going loli)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Does anyone have pictures of lolita/rococco inspired rooms?

Thanks xo!

I got my lucky pack tracking number, and it shipped on the 22nd! Apparently it's been in customs since the 23rd, but they released it at 3 this morning, so I'm hoping it'll be here this afternoon! =DD

Any other ladies received their tracking number, or their packs?

I imagine we are about to have a flood of lucky pack posts so maybe we can make one post to keep track of whats come so far?

I just got mine (2) lucky packs and here are the contents:

Pack 1:
Red x White lace OP
Black Long Bloomers
Black x Black Lace Trim Skirt

Pack 2:
Red x White lace OP (again *sadface*)
White Short Bloomers
Punkma Pink Prince Pants (not sure how I feel about this, I guess I need to try them on!)

So who has gotten what? .^_^.

Good afternoon, citizens. As many of you know, Anime Expo is this weekend in LA. So my question to you all is... who is going?? I'll be attending with nudeonthemoon, snatch_patch, and a few others.

If you're going to be there, leave a comment! Also say what days you think you'll be attending, and maybe we can arrange some meet-ups and whatnot.

If there's already a post like this, please direct me to it and I'll delete this one; I've seen surprisingly little AX-related stuff posted here, though.

This is my first photo post here :)

So late last night I suddenly decided to doodle AATP designs...for every kind of loli =D

I am putting together a lolita-only phone list for ease of communication during AX.

If you are going to AX and would like to be on the list, let me know here and email me your phone number, first name and LJ name to: deedlelu (at) gmail.com.

This list will ONLY be distributed to people ON the list and has been reserved for EGL and CA_EGL members only.

The list so far can be found here

Hello all!

My sister bought an Innocent World Bonnet during the winter sale and the quality is great (I especially love the two little bows on the side)!  It was 30% off so it was probably around $30-$40.

I always see sales on the community that say "If you're using CC Paypal it will be 4% extra", but I've heard that this is illegal or against Paypal's rules.

Is this true? And if it is illegal, why do people still do it?

And while were on this subject: Isn't it illegal for BABY to charge taxes for orders outside of Japan?

Ok, so I come across the cutest polka dotted patterned fabric for 2$ a yard...and I remembered that Baby has a polka dotted pattern JSK..the problem is..that they took it off there site (either that or I'm an idiot and cant find it). I was wondering if anyone saved the pictures of the dress before they took it off their site? :<

Please and thank you!

o(^-^)o

>.< I hope this is allowed, please delete if it isnt ^.^

I'm trying to figure out what new hair style I should get. I have had plain long straight hair for a few years now and I need something new. I wear sweet lolita most of the time with barets, bonnets, and bows. I have tried the hime cut when I was younger but it didnt really look so cute on me :/

I'm sorry I really didn't know where to post this...( on egl_sales maybe?) Is just that I looked in the memories but couldn't found anyone doing a shopping service. I really dont want to take celga or crecent because they are to darn expensive ¬¬ and I only want some sleeve stoppers from angelic pretty ... I hope I can get them because in teh first sale the were sold out in a matter of days T_T ... so is anyone offering a shopping service who can accept paypal or western union?? thanks ;)

Hi all!

Hello~ me again!

I am thinking of using patterns in the G&LB and I'm wondering what the default measurements are, or what is the best way to measure them to find out. I have some really nice fabric that I would like to make a fitting dress out of. :3 And not something that I have to cry about not fitting!

Thank you!! <3

Hi!

First of all, thank you very much to the members of EGL! The world's first and only print magazine for English-speaking Lolitas is on track for an early August release, and we have dozens of contributors working on great articles, art, photo shoots, and more.

Now we need help from you, the Loli-on-the-street. :) We're looking for the following to help wrap up our content for this first issue, and would love to get as many Lolis involved as we can:

[I need something to match my Tie darnit ;p]

or are there other blue punkma shizzle? (:
[No, I don't need the cowgirl hat :') ]

thank you

[does this need cutting? O_o]

San Diego Comicon (Thu, July 26 - Sun, July 29) is fast approaching.  I'm planning to go and represent in my lolita style gear.  Anyone else have plans to visit the convention?

Would anyone like to carpool from the Orange County / Los Angeles area?  I have a pass for all four days but I don't relish the thought of driving up and down without company as I haven't booked a hotel room.

More planning for events at this post >> (click!)

Ideas for activities you'd be interested in would be great too. 
Shall we have a swap meet?

Now I don't think I've seen this on here before...BUT Spiderman was attacked by lolitas in a Teddy bomb factory.

...and lost HAHA!

I whipped a nice berry and cream dessert earlier and I just wanted to share it with the internet.

Then I realized that some of you girls might want to serve it at your tea parties or have it for a nice light snack!
