An*tai*na help.

All right, so, I'm pretty new to the Lolita scene and I'm not used to ordering from foreign websites.
However, I'm in love with two pairs of shoes from them. The issue here, though, is that I don't understand the sizing nor the pricing for the life of me.
I wear a women's 9.5/10, and I'm wondering what size I should order and how much the two pairs are going to be.

Messenger bags

I'm in the market for a messenger bag, but I'm having trouble finding ones that match my aesthetic (gothic lolita/kodona or a little bit of natural kei). Anyone have any suggestions? Or would I be better off getting a tote bag (that fits a 13" laptop) and a laptop sleeve?

Looking for a Few Lolita Pen Pals

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen.
pink mail box
I just started a new job that has a bit of down time and I would like to fill that time with letter writing. I used to have pen pals when I was younger and loved it. Having a friend that I have never met and who I write to and send little stickers to is so fun. I am looking for about 4 or 5 people anywhere in the world who would like to discuss Lolita, hobbies, cats, and anything in between.

I would like to be long term pen pals and send correspondence for quite some time. So, if this sounds fun to you just leave a comment.

P.S.- Here a few things about me to give you an idea of what might be in my letters. I love Lolita (of course), sewing, making jewelry, reading, Netflix, cooking, cats!, video games, bands like Priscilla Ahn, James Iha, She & Him, and Lykki Li, and learning how to play the ukulele. I live in Upstate NY, I am in my 20's, I am married, and love the color pink.

I AM DONE TAKING NEW PEN PALS, THANKS SO MUCH

Bodyline Length Help?

I'm looking at ordering a certain jsk off bodyline, L357 to be exact: http://www.bodyline.co.jp/bodyline/showProduct2.asp?id=6231&pageNumber=2&pageStop=stop_3&noSubType=N

I love the design, but looking at it on the model, it looks very, very short! The length listed for the 2l, which is the size i'm getting, is 94cm. I would assume the model is wearing an M, but i don't think 4cm should make that much of a difference! And 94cm is an okay length for my height, but due to the photo i feel like it will be much shorter! D:

So, to get to the point, does anyone own this dress, and could you tell me if the length is true to the photo, or to the measurements? Worn photos would also be appreciated. I'm 5 7" by the way
