Lapointe & Bastchild has a huge selection of Gothic styled fashion and apparel, so it's wonderful that upon first arrival you're greeted with a convenient teleportation board. My first visit was to the mens apparel where i was surrounded by gorgeous button ups, suits, pants, boots and more. Like the Narcisse Bodyshirt($299L), that comes with sculpted cuffs, collar and belt, or the more simple Club Classic($130L). The full outfits are just stunning like the gorgeous Narcisse Slate set($800L) that comes with sculpted tie, collar, belt, arm/leg bands and even boots! The womens selections are just as stunning with gorgeous gowns like the Couture Dress set($599L) that can be worn in various styles including a pants option. Or their outfit sets like the totally cute Latin Flower($350L) with hipster pants and flexi ankle cuffs. Also available from Lapointe & Bastchild are Shoe/Boots, Lingerie, Jewellery, and even Formal & Bridal selections... all located on the teleportation board, of course. So if you're into darker, sexy, quality items and apparel check out Lapointe & Bastchild.

Bare Rose

Bare Rose

Bare Rose could be compared to a enormous costume shop, but perhaps that's not being fair because the selections here stretch beyond mere costumes. The thing i love most about Bare Rose is that what you see is what you get, and what you'll see are amazing quality outfits filled with detail and layers. What you'll also see are the ridiculously amazing prices. In fact, I don't believe any of the outfits here are priced over $200L, most hovering around $150L, and these are outfits that could easily be priced triple that. For instance the Mist(and one my personal favourites), is a super sexy 18th century styled jacket/skirt combination with garters that retails for a mere $130L. Or the adorable Tradurian($145L), a plaid button up jacket with open collar and short flexi skirt, also with garters. The mens selections are just as vast, like the Samurai of Darkness($140L), a complete body plated outfit with cape. There are so many outfits at Bare Rose it would be impossible to leave without buying at least one. And with all their accessories, you're sure to find that perfect item.
