Several people have been asking for what to search for on Yahoo Japan Auctions, so I thought I would create a list of the best terms to search for for those people who don't know Japanese. Just copy and past the terms into the search field, but make sure you set the search to fashion (ファッション) to keep from getting random results. If you have other

Thanx for those. I was wondering do you know what the search term for Gothic Lolita is? I could never figure that one out... Also any ideas on?

-Socks
-Shoes
-Platforms
-Shirts/Blouses
-Skirts
-Accessories
-Lot/Bundle

It would be nice to have a concise list in the Memories which can be constantly added to...?

For lolita you can use ロリ and get about 5000 results, ゴスロリ for gothic lolita, ロリィタ or ロリータ for fewer results.

Socks - 靴下
Shoes - 靴
Blouses - ブラウス
Skirt - スカート
Headdress - ヘッドドレス
One Piece - ワンピース
Pannier - パニエ
Fukubukuro - 福袋

Also Emily Temple Cute can be searched for as エミキュ, and Metamorphose as メタモル.

This is rather useful, thank you. I've noticed a few differences of opinion in spelling when it comes to katakana, so it's great to have a list to refer back to!
