Welcome to Gaia! ::

oh my gosh those clothes are gorgeous whee ... i wish i had enough money to buy them or enough talent to make them

i think it's pretty cool i've always like lolita clothes they're so pretty

I saw a "Gothic Bible" In books-a-million the other day. I don't if there is a difference between that one and the one you are talking about though. I think it would be worth buying. Probably very interesting. My mom would freak though if she ever saw me with one of those. Lol she's pretty supportive of the style but she gets freaked out about the books. Haha.

I highly doubt any library in the states is going to have it - the whole thing is pretty much a fashion mag and written entirely in Japanese. And you have to be EXTREMELY careful with them as they get older, because the glue tends to wear out.

I'm pretty sure to subscribe to the GLB, you probably need to live in Japan, but they sell them on Ebay all the time. That's where I get mine.
In addition to pictures of the newest gothic and lolita clothing, it also includes a few sewing patterns, hair and makeup tips, and recipes and interviews with models, jrockers, and designers. Depending on which issue you get, some have posters or other goodies.
It's a really good view of 'what's hot' in Lolitaland.
There's also pics of street lolitas in addition to the models, so there's a lot of representation on the different lolita styles.
If often features icons such as Mana, Kana, Aya, Miyavi, and Novala Takemoto.
Even if you can't read Japanese, if your into the goth/lolita/punk stuff, it's a good buy. *usually around $25, though*

its worth subscribing to... the clothes that are in it are really pretty i htink and the ads are great

Although I own most of them, I am unfortunately too lazy at the moment to do the scanning my self.

Scans from GLB and GLCS ^^

I've heard about it but never bought or read it.
