And in news I really shouldn't have found out about, one of the Big Name Japanese Gothic Lolita clothing companies is going to be opening a store in SF this autumn. Oh, as usual, dear.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Baroo? Clearly, you need to come down here and shop, what with our 3 H&Ms and other Fun Stuff Not Located in Seattle.

Empress, have you ever had asthma? Even as a kid? I had bad asthma when I was a baby, but I adjusted. When I moved out to Utah and up in elevation a couple of thousands feet, though, the asthma came back. With the recent move and you now living in a much colder situation, that may be aggrivating your lungs.

I know! Well, we're (finally) getting H&M stores this spring. But we won't have a Baby the Stars Shine Bright store! And while I find most BtSSB designs far too twee and death-by-ruffles little girly, I just remembered they're the company that makes the Alice and the Pirates line. [link]

move out and draw fire
GAH!!!
I really can't chuck out my whole wardrobe in favor of a total Gothic Lolita look, can I.
Supposedly they're a strangulation hazard. How this works when the strings are INSIDE A JACKET I'm not sure, but apparently now you're supposed to get your own string and sew each mitten to the jacket individually. What. Ev.
I got little clippy bungie cords. Now I just have to get Mal to tolerate having mittens on.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Empress, have you ever had asthma?
I've not. I've had pneumonia before, though. Like, lots as a kid.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My method is to wait until we're outside to put them on. (I also recommend having a baby young enough that he can't argue with you or pull off his own mittens.)

Again, I am not the person to answer this question for you. But, if you do decide to dabble in that fashion, let me point you at Retroscope Fashions as a good place to start. Their prices are very, very reasonable. Reasonable enough that I have, um, a LOT of skirts from them. And some blouses.

HIE THEE TO A DOCTOR!
edit: when you can, of course, but as quickly as you can. You don't need people yelling at you, you're an intelligent being.
