advice for newcomers?

hi!! i recently bought a second hand lolita dress online (nothing too fancy, quite cheap material actually) and i felt really pretty. i’m 16, and my parents have agreed to let me dress lolita! i have some questions about good websites, sizing, shipping and terms…

  1. what are the good websites? i know about 42lolita, but are there any other good ones that ship internationally? i live in sweden and the lolita subculture here isn’t that big

  2. should i buy my size here in sweden or order a size bigger? i know sizing can change between countries

  3. what does it exactly mean when an item is pre order? if it says "pre order: 40 days" does that mean that the item will first be shipped after 40 days?

  4. my feet hurt a lot due to hypermobility, is it wrong to be a little iffy about buying heels? i wanna be able to walk around without being in too much pain while still wearing the style correctly.

  5. what exactly do all the acronyms mean? what is the difference between a JSK and a OP?

  6. how strict is the subculture? can i wear things wrong?
