We can't believe this day has come, but today is finally our last update of new items. We have a pretty full update of items, although some things are out of stock, including white petticoats. We will leave these items up for probably at least two weeks before closing the store. Our e-mail will still be available for at least one month after we ship the last items.
Thanks again for everyone's support and encouragement!

01.24.10
We again have some new skirts today - we've found some fabrics we forgot we had, so check them out!! We will be updating again next week, so some items will be back, although some skirts are one-of-a-kind at this point.

01.17.10
There are several new skirts available today, including two one-of-a-kinds. The pink/white rose skirt we will be having a few more of. We also have a unique pair of lolita pajamas available on the dresses/tops page!

Next week, we will probably have a fairly "full" update. It might be our last update, but we may do one more after that with remaining items. Thanks for all your support as we're transitioning in our lives-it means so much to us!

01.10.10
This week we have three new skirts available, as well as one more each of the two new skirts from last week. After today, we will probably have at least two more weeks of updates (probably three) although we may not be updating as much each time as we begin to run out of supplies.

01.03.10
Happy New Year! We are beginning to run out of solid black fabric,so we don't have as many of those items left. However, we do have two new skirts today - a white with black trim sailor skirt and a new style of black/white polka dot skirt. Some bloomer styles are beginning to go out of stock, although almost all the white bloomers will still be in stock for a while. :)

12.27.09
We hope you all had/are having a wonderful holiday! Thank you so much to everyone for all your sweet comments and well-wishes to us as we prepare to close In the Starlight. We will certainly keep you updated here about our future plans, especially the Etsy store Mara is already busy scheming for. Today we have one new skirt style - it's a one-of-a-kind, so buy it quickly if you like it :)

12.20.09
Today we have some bittersweet news: we will be closing In the Starlight soon. We will still be open for a while because we have lots of fabric stock left to make items. For more information, please click here.

We are on target to ship out all items that were purchased by December 14th tomorrow. For domestic orders, this means that they should be arriving in time for Christmas. We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!!

12.13.09
The most important news today is that it is the last day to order items to have them arrive in time for Christmas (within the US - international orders placed at this point will probably arrive after Christmas). Please remember that orders take about a week to ship, so items ordered today will likely ship next Monday, December 21. Priority mail shipping takes about 2 - 3 days within the US. This means that some orders placed today may arrive on Christmas Eve (there is mail delivery on Christmas Eve.) Shipping time is not guaranteed, but we've had good success with Priority Mail arriving within 3 days most of the time.

12.06.09
Today we have a one-of-a-kind pink rose skirt available for the waist size range 38 - 52". At this point, we can't guarantee before-Christmas delivery ffor international orders, but customers within the US still have plenty of time to order for Christmas. (All US orders placed by Dec. 13th should arrive before Christmas)

12.01.09
We have updated our used anime sale to http://www.inthestarlight.com/sale/animesale.html Things are looking a little broken right now! We will be fixing broken links and adding more items over the next day or two! Thanks for taking a look!

Today we have a new apron on the accessories page and a new black stripe/cherry skirt as well. Check back December 1st (tuesday) around 8pm CST -- at that time, we will be posting a used anime/j-rock sale! We're making room for some new stuff in our collection, so we have lots to sell including dvds, cds, posters, wall scrolls, manga, art books, and more!

11.22.09
A black/black version of a pintuck/rose lace jumperskirt is back today, as well as our deep red pintuck skirt and matchign capelet! Another style to reemerge is our robin's egg blue scallop skirt, this time with a new white ruffle at the hem. We hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving this week!

11.15.09
Today we have several new things: there is a new style of black/white skirt with a full underskirt attached, and there is a skirt from the last of our sky blue Alice tea party import fabric. We also have two other items in new color choices: our lace overlay skirt that can be bustled is now also offered in solid white. On the tops/dresses page, the black/white rose dress pearl strings and a ruffle bustle is now also offered in pink/white.

11.08.09
Next week we will have three or four new items, including at least two new skirts. There are some new pictures in our customer gallery! Thanks to everyone who sends them in!

11.01.09
We hope you all had a great Halloween! Now, of course, starts the quick transition into the holiday season!! We are ordered some more velveteen fabric so that we'll have some cosy skirts for your holiday parties soon!

10.25.09
We've had a busy week this week, getting orders out in time for Halloween celebrations! Needless to say, it's now too late to place orders for Halloween (although it is a good time to start putting Thanksgiving outfits together!) Let us know if there are certain items you're hoping to see available again soon. Have a Happy Halloween!

10.18.09
Today we have a one-of-a-kind skirt available using a Japanese import print. (We did a couple of skirts that were similar, but this one's a little different and it's the last one we'll have of this print.) We also fixed a couple of thing-- some of the things on the dresses and tops page were accidentally marked as being for only small sizes when in fact we can make them for any size :)

10.11.09
We have some new things in the works, but none for the update today - we've been bogged down with Halloween-season orders--there seem to be lots of wedding, meet-ups, and other events coming up in the next couple of weeks! Some people have been asking about delivery time; we are on our regular schedule, which is to ship out items about a week after they are ordered (orders placed on Saturdays and Sundays usually go out the next Monday because of post office hours). Transit time within the US takes about 2 - 3 days, so orders placed today, for example, will likely arrive around October 22nd.
Check out our customer gallery for some pretty new pictures!

10.04.09
There is a red ice cream print Japanese import skirt today - that's the only one we'll have, so grab it if you want it! :)
We're excited for Fall! At this point, we can't 100% guarantee that international orders will arrive in time for Halloween (unless you want to pay extra shipping for Global Priority). However, there is still plenty of time left for people within the United States. Just e-mail us with any questions!

09.27.09
Today we have a new skirt made with an old favorite fabric - it's a Japanese import pink and cream floral stripe. We thought we were out, but found a piece to make one more lovely skirt from that fabric! :) If you're thinking of getting items to wear at events near Halloween, now is the time to start buying them!

09.20.09
Not much news today! There is a lovely new photo in the customer gallery. We hope you're all having a great end of Summer - get ready for Fall on Tuesday!

09.13.09
Check out the skirts page for a new blackXwhite bustle back skirt. We are also offering our capelet in black, which might come in handy for a Halloween creation you're cooking up! Don't forget that if you'd like extra lace or bows on an item, we can sometimes accomodate - just e-mail us to let us know what you'd like, and we can tell you how much extra it would be. :)

09.06.09
We have a new blackXblack skirt today with a fitted waist and bustle tiers in back. Let us know if you'd like to see a blackXwhite version soon! Also, if there's an item you've been hoping to see again, be sure to e-mail us so we know - we will try to offer it again if we can get the fabric :)

08.30.09
Welcome to our first Sunday evening update! We hope this will be a convenient time for most people. We have a new skirt today feauturing a gorgeous print of red roses. We hope to be getting a couple of new Japanese import prints in a couple of weeks!

08.21.09
Starting next week, we will be changing our updates to Sunday evenings at 5:30pm CST.
Today we have a new Alice print skirt - we have two today and we'll have one next week, so if you want one, take your chance soon! :)
We also have a new, subtle black hairbow for an elegant touch. Let us know what kinds of items you're looking for in our next updates!

08.07.09
Nothing new today as we're preparing to leave for our vacation on monday! :) We will have a couple of Japanese import Alice print skirts for the next update when we get back, though! See our note above about shipping - any orders placed between today and sunday will be made after we return - we will process them in the order we receive them, so some will be ready to ship out only a day or two after we return.

07.31.09
We have a new brown gingham skirt this week! Next week, we will have something else new - we are getting a couple of new prints in, so we'll see what we can come up with for them!! We got some lilac gingham back in stock, so there is out lilac jumperskirt available again!
Please see the note above about our upcoming vacation!

07.24.09
Just when we had lost hope, we found out that we are getting chocolate and white colored gingham soon! We should have some items with that available next week :)
This week, we have a new style of skirt and a jumperskirt with the same skirt design. We hope everyone had a great time at Otakon last week!

07.17.09
This week we have three new skirts -- two of them are Japanese import fabrics, and they are one of a kind (we found a couple of import fabric prints we had forgotten we have!) We also have a new black and red skirt featuring a stylish pocketwatch applique and gold chain. We are picking out our new Japanese import fabrics now, and hope to have items available with them by early September :) We hope everyone is having fun at Otakon this weekend!

07.10.09
We now have the Queen of Hearts skirt in your choice of black or red. We also have a new skirt with a beautiful fairy cameo!
We're getting ready to order some new Japanese import fabrics! Among other things, we're thinking of getting some cute doll print fabrics. Take a look at our options, and let us know which one, two, or three you like best. Just e-mail us and tell us your favorites by telling us the background color and which column it's in (for example, 'I like the pink background in the middle column.') Of course, the patterns are bigger in real life, but hopefully you can get the idea :)

07.03.09
Today we have a new Queen of Hearts skirt! We will likely be offering that style in black next week, and probably a new Alice jumperskirt as well.

06.26.09
There's a new strawberry print skirt today :) We are working on some designs for new items next week with a different twist on an Alice in Wonderland theme. Also some new headwear is in the works. Have fun at Anime Expo, for those who are attending, and we hope all our fellow Americans are gearing up for a fun 4th next week!
Speaking of the 4th, the post office will be closed for the holiday, so some orders placed today and tomrrow may not be able to ship until Monday the 6th.

06.19.09
We had lots of storms today in the Midwest, but now the sun's out and it finally feels like Summer!
A new Japanese import floral skirt today! We've finally gotten word that the chocolate colored gingham fabric we've had on backorder will be in, although probably not for a few more weeks. We're very excited to make a sophisticated jumperskirt out of that :) Don't forget to remind us if you need items by a specific date so we can confirm whether or not we can ship them in time.

06.12.09
Today we have a new kind of skirt - it has an option to be worn as a stand-alone skirt, or be drawn up in the back in a bustle silhouette to be worn as an overskirt! Let us know if you might be interested in a white version of this skirt - we have the overlay lace fabric in white as well, and we could offer that soon :)
Not much other news - we hope all is well as you're getting ready for summer conventions and other fun events!!

06.05.09
Check out some new photos in our customer gallery!
Today there is a new rose pink jumperskirt with ivory accents and a tiered bustle panel in back. Next week, we promise at least one new overskirt and also a new black/black skirt with some lovely new lace. If you've been hoping we'll have a particular item again, remember that the best way is to e-mail us and let us know! If we can make more, we most likely will :)
Also remember to order items in advance that you will need for conventions and special occasions. We normally ship items about a week after they are ordered, so leaving at least two weeks before you need an item is best - (and if you're not sure, you can of course always ask!)

05.29.09
We have a new skirt with a Japanese import toile pattern and a bustle back, as well as a new white short sleeve bolero for those hot summer conventions :)We know a lot of you are graduating or finishing up the school year, so good luck with finals!
As you know, we normally update every week at 5:30pm CST. Next week, we will be updating a little later at 7pm, so please come and visit us then!

05.22.09
There's a new cupcake skirt today! Next week we'll be having a lovely ivory toile print from Japan and probably a new dusty rose pink skirt or jumperskirt as well.

05.15.09
Today we have a new white hairbow, a blue print skirt, and a black cherry skirt. Some more new fabrics will be coming in for next week, including a new floral Japanese import print. We were hoping for a chocolate/white gingham fabric, but it's on backorder so hopefully it still come in soon!

05.08.09
We have a new style of button up blouse today! We have some fun new fabrics on order, but we're not sure when the shipment will be arriving. Possibly for next week, but certainly in two weeks.

05.01.09
Happy May Day! Today we have a new jumperskirt style and a new sailor-style bolero jacket! Also check out a new white version of our deluxe headdress on the headwear page. A new blouse is still in the works and will probably appear next week :)

04.24.09
It's finally starting to feel like spring here! We hope it's nice by you :) A new skirt with "wonderland" appliques this week. We had a couple more planned for this update, but our new shipment of lace is late, so they'll have to wait until next week. One item will be a new button-up blouse with fancy detailing in the back as well as the front :)

04.17.09
We hope you all had a great week! Ours was a little crazy with Easter and visiting family, but we're back on track now, and we should be having some new items for next week! We'll probably have out new underbust jumperskirt in a different fabric/style, and we hope to have a new style of blouse soon! :)

04.10.09
We have two new styles of skirts this week. The first one is light and summery, in a pink and white gingham print with cherries. The second one is more gothic in indigo and black. Also some new cameo jewellry on the accessories page! Check out some new customer sketches in our Customer Graphics gallery! We hope those of you who celebrate Easter will have a good one! And we hope it will be a relaxing weekend for all :)

04.03.09
We have a new type of jumperskirt this week! If you like the style but not the color, let us know - we may be offering the style in blackXwhite and pinkXwhite gingham soon! Check out our main gallery for some newly updated photos! We've also altered our shipping rates just a bit - all shipping costs remain the same except for domestic orders totalling from $37 - $49.99, which went up 50 cents. Next week we should be having some more cameo jewellry in the accessories section. Let us know what other kinds of new items you'd like to see soon!

03.27.09
As we're getting near to more conventions, please remember to let us know if you are hoping to get your order by a certain date and we will do our best to accomodate. Remember that we often ship items as late as one week after they are ordered, so leave plenty of time before your event for the items to arrive. We hope you'll like our new red ice cream print skirt and the new double hairbow this week!

03.20.09
Happy Spring everyone!! We finally got in our new supply of black fabric, so we have some black skirts and other items again, including a new blackXblack overskirt. This has been a busy week, but we'll be having some new items next week (fingers crossed). It's a bit nippy here, but we hope you have nice weather where you are as we head forward into spring and soon the convention season!

03.13.09
New Alice print skirt this week, as well as a black/white overskirt that looks good with either a white or black underskirt. We've been low on black fabric, but we should be getting tons more in soon, so we'll have some more black blouses, dresses, jumperskirts, and skirts soon. We've also got one more Japanese import with a red base coming next week. Easter is in a month, so if you're looking for items to wear for Easter, now's the time! :)

03.06.09
Some new designs this week! We have a riding hood skirt, another Japanese print with cakes and desserts, a floral overskirt, and a cherry and gingham print dress! Mostly sweet stuff, as we're thinking spring this week :) Next week, we will have a blue Alice print skirt, and who knows what else?
This week we also have a new gallery with pictures of some of the skirts we have offered in the past. (see the "Past Items" button on the left.) More pictures will be added next week, as well galleries of other items like blouses and dresses.

02.27.09
We added an ivory version of our bustle skirt this week -- we ran out of time to make matching overskirts that coordinate well with ivory, but we'll have some more next week :). We also added a new black/white gingham jumperskirt this week. We're working on galleries of past items in each category so that you can browse styles and suggest what you might like to see again or make new suggestions - those are almost done and should be up next week. We're expecting a ton of fabric in this week (something like 150 yards) so we'll definitely be having some new items next week, including the long-awaited Japanese prints. One is a red-riding hood print, so we'll be having some more matching dark red capelets as well!

02.20.09
Well, this turned out to be a crazy week for us, so we weren't able to make as many new styles as we had planned, but we do have a couple of new things, including a grey with black lace overskirt. We're still waiting on our next batch of Japanese import fabrics, but hopefully it will be soon!

02.13.09
Happy Valentines Day (tomorrow)!!! More mix and match bustle sets this week. We will likely have some solid color overskirts next week (some or all of the following: blackXblack, blackXwhite, greyXblack) Let us know what you'd like to see :) We'll also be adding some new hairbow and/or headdress styles next week.

02.06.09
We have some mix and match bustle back skirt sets this week -- we hope to have more in the coming weeks including ivory and black ruffled underskirts. We have a new pink gingham jumperskirt this week, and we may be offering that style in black/white gingham and/or lavender/white gingham soon -- let us know if you might be interested in that :)
We are hoping to get some new Japanese import fabrics in soon - we are expecting an Alice print and a Red Riding Hood print!

01.30.09
Next week we hope to have a new style of jumperskirt. We also had a suggestion to make some mix and match bustle sets (where the underskirt and overskirt are purchased separately) so we may be trying some of those as well :)

01.23.09
This week was a rather crazy one for us, but we hope you had a good week! We're counting down to groundhog day so that we can start counting down to spring... it's not easy living lolita in the North!! We're not sure yet what will be new next week, but as always, we welcome suggestions!

01.16.09
We're looking forward to spring! We've got some great new spring fabrics on order that should be appearing soon :) We got in some really nice 100% cotton black/white gingham fabric that will be appearing next week probably in skirt form first, with a jumperskirt to follow at a later date.

01.09.09
We two new types of skirts for Valentine's day this week - the one with roses and a red bustle back won't be appearing again, so if you're interested, get one now! Next week, we will for sure have a new jumperskirt style (navy with white sailor style). We'll also debut a new style of bloomers which will feature English netting and venice laces - they will be available in white and ivory lace custom made to order like our other bloomers. Check our our "Main Gallery" for some new customer pictures!

01.02.09
Happy New Year!! We hope you all had a great holiday!
Leah, unforunately, spent the holiday delirious with flu, so not as many new designs this week as we'd hoped, but we did bring back some previous designs that haven't seen the light for awhile :)
We should be coming out with a lovely new style of bloomers soon (hopefully next week) and a new jumperskirt and blouse design are in the works as well. During the next couple of weeks, we'll also be breaking out some sweet fabrics for Valentine's themed items, so check back!

12.26.08
We hope you all had a Merry Christmas and happy holidays! We've been busy Christmas-ing over here, but we still have two new skirt styles for you this week! We've also added two more black cherry corduroy skirts, which is the last of our supply of that fabric. Let us know if you'd be interested in seeing more and we can order some :)

12.19.08
The deadline for ordering things to arrive in time for Christmas is officially past. If you would like to order any items for Christmas presents, they will likely arrive after Christmas, but if you let us know, we can make a printable announcement sheet for you with a picture and a message from us to let the person know what they will be receiving. Please remember that since the items are custom made, we can't accept returns, so make sure you get something they really want! :)

We've been so busy with the holiday rush that we haven't had time for many brand-new styles, but we are working on some that will be appearing in the next few weeks, including a new floral import from Japan and hopefully a new blouse style.
We hope you all have a wonderful, safe, loving, joyous holiday!!

12.12.08
Because the holidays are so quickly approaching, we added almost all custom sized items this week for your last-minute shopping convenience :) Please place your order ASAP for delivery by Christmas. The absolute cut-off for items to be delivered (within the US) by Christmas is this coming Thursday the 18th. Any international orders placed at this point will most likely arrive after Christmas, especially because customs tend to get backed up during the holidays.

12.05.08
This week we added more custom-sized items to make holiday shopping easier - if you've been waiting for some of our more popular styles, this may be a good chance to find one in your size! We've been kind of slacking on our accessories lately - we'll be adding lots more next week as a couple new styles of headwear :)

11.28.08
We hope you all had a great Thanksgiving yesterday! We are waiting for backorders of embossed black velveteen fabric and ice cream print fabric with a blue backround -- at least one or the other should come in this week, so items with those fabrics should be appearing shortly.

Christmas is coming! Please remind anyone who might be gift shopping for you that many of our items are one of a kind and may sell out quickly. Domestic orders should be placed by December 18th for Christmas arrival, and International orders should be placed as quickly as possible since transit time is not guaranteed for regular airmail.

11.21.08
We just got in some stock of black/white polka dots, so we should be adding some items with that fabric next week :)
We added a new color choice to the custom-sized "dolly blouse"; it's now also available in ivory with ivory lace. We hope you all have a great Thanksgiving this week!

11.14.08
No luck with the plaid yet; we'll keep hunting! If you were interested in skirt 140, we fixed the code, so it should add to your cart normally now. Let us know which styles you'd like to see more of (and which sizes!)

11.07.08
We're on a hunt for some nice holiday plaids - we'll see if we can come up with something great! :) We hope you all had a great halloween last week, and if anyone has photos of themselves wearing any of our items, please feel free to e-mail them to us for the customer gallery! Check out our "customer graphics" gallery for some new drawings!!

10.31.08
More clock charms arrived, so we'll be having some "wonderland skirts" next week, including at least one in grey with black lace and appliques. Since the holidays are coming soon, we'll also be having some styles for holiday parties :)

10.24.08
We finally got our new stock of blue, red, and grey fabrics in, so some items in those colors will be appearing next week. We're also going to try to make some kind of gallery of past items so that you can browse through things we've had before and make suggestions for what you'd like to see again :)

10.17.08
Most of the items for this week's update were from our list of requests we've been compiling :) Some more new styles next week, hopefully including a new style of blouse. We're also going to try to get a few more colors represented on our headwear page.
Halloween is coming up! To make sure you get any items you need for Halloween in time, we recommend you order next monday 10/20 at the latest.

10.10.08
It's Leah's birthday -- hurray! Maybe we'll celebrate by making a couple of cake headdresses for next week :) We'll also probably by trying some circular headdresses, and who knows what else? By popular request, we have some grey fabric on order, so in a couple of weeks we should be having some grey with black lace items. Also, we think we've finally found a nice "alice" blue, so that should be appearing in a few weeks as well.

10.03.08
We weren't able to finish as many products as we wanted to this week -- our grandmother passed away and we spent a lot of time with family. She was a seamstress and fashion plate in her day and a big inspiration for us! :)
More new designs next week, including some blouses with either long or detachable sleeves. Also more of designs we've done in the past that we've gotten more requests for.

9.26.08
Unfortunately our new blue fabric is a bit too dark to be an "alice blue", so our search for wonderland-ready fabric continues!
Next week we should be having a few more red "riding hood" items, as well as some other things in solid colors. More jumperskirts and/or dresses for sure!

9.19.08
If our new stock of blue fabric comes in, we should be having some fun Alice items for next week! Also more dresses and blouses - let us know which styles have your favorites or what new types of styles you'd like to see :)

9.12.08
We realized that this wasn't very clear before, so just a quick note abut matching hairbows: the "matching hairbows" listed for purchase with skirts and dresses are only available when you are purchasing the larger item.
They are slightly discounted from what they would cost separately, and so are an optional add-on only when you purchase a skirt or dress. To purchase headwear separately, please shop on the "Headwear" page. Thanks! :)
We plan lots of new hairbows and hair accessories for next week. We'll also really be trying to increase our stock of things on the dresses/tops page, including some restocks of previous blouse styles and at least one new style. More socks will be coming, as well :)

9.5.08
Next week we plan to update some new aprons, jumperskirts, and blouses for sure. Let us know what else you'd like to see more of!
If we get a positive response about the red skirts and/or capes from this week, we will likely have some more of those as well.

8.29.08
We will be having more of the white background/black rose print bustle-back dresses next week! We will also have some riding hood jsks and or skirts with optional capelet hoods to match. Some new Japanese import fabrics will be coming as well :)

8.22.08
We will be getting more white background/black roses fabric in a few weeks, so we will have more bustle back dresses with that pattern soon!

We're also waiting for some red and blue fabric to come in to make some riding hood and alice items in a couple of weeks!

We will continue to offer Wonderland skirts intermittently, mostly in black with white lace and blue with white lace.
