I need new clothes

I haven't bought anything new in..oh...about two years.

None of my clothes fit right because I've put on weight after loosing a shitload of weight, which was the last time I bought any new clothes. So I have a mix of too tight and too large items.

So anyway, I'd love it if you all could help me out with some good websites to shop from, because the only stores (aside from Salvation Army and Goodwill) we have in this one horse town is Wal-Mart and the places at the mall (Hot Topic, American Eagle, etc.) and while you'll sometimes find nice things at such places, I'd really like to expand my clothing choices from blue-jeans and branded t-shirts to something a bit more...romantic? I hate to use the term, but, perhaps even gothic?

Also if anybody has ordered from bewild.com, I'm planning to order some kikwear jeans from there for stompin' around on the street, but I don't know how safe they are to buy from.

have you ever tried taobao? It's basically like a chinese ebay only that the prices are dirt cheap. the only downsides are that it's in chinese so you would have to use a webpage translator and you also have to use a shopping service/middleman to buy from the website. My favorite shopping service to use is taobaobuying.com I've had no trouble with the last 3 orders I placed with them. A word of advice, never order from taobao right before chinese new year, I don't know why but it takes forever for your orders to get here. It's a good place to find EGL and other fantastic goth and eastern punk clothing without breaking your bank. I just wish the EMS shipping was a little cheaper.

when i used to buy clothes i used to get cheap shit from chicstar.com. some of the stuff there sucks but some of it is pretty cool. got a lot of jackets, a dress and couple of skirts.

haven't been clothes shopping in around 3 years.

You could take a trip to another town during the holidays. The weekend after New Year's is usually ripe with sales. All the stores want to get rid of everything that didn't sell and black is a popular winter color.
