URG all 3 of the stores in Washington State are sold out!! Well, one had them until yesterday but they were damaged so they sent them back to their damage center.
Update: Every store in Los Angeles area is sold out as well but I called one in Modesto and they are mailing a pair to me! So if you guys can't get them locally, just keep calling stores because they will send them to you. (This may be common knowledge, but it is a new concept to me!)

A couple of people msg'd me and asked for detailed pics of the SA garter belt so I took pictures and measurements and made an album. If anyone is DIY'ing it I hope this helps. Apologies if some of the pics are a little unclear, my good camera started malfunctioning at the beginning of the weekend. If any clarifications are needed just let me know. Album can be found here: http://imgur.com/a/By8V8
I can't imagine being able to make that for much less than it costs to buy. That's a LOT of detail!

And behold! Laurel's top that she wears under the jacket! It is the Bebe Mock Neck Lace Top which has had its sleeves removed and the arm holes bound. Here is the link: http://www.bebe.com/Clothing/Tops/Lace/Mock-Neck-Lace-Top/23506.pro?keyword=mock

So, since the SA boot hasn't been ID'd I went ahead and purchased a very similar alt, the Topshop Destroy Boot. It was very difficult to find a leather (or even faux leather) over the knee boot that did not have any zippers and also had a low heel. These are the closest I've found and, at first, I thought they might be SA but the tread and lines are a little bit different. I plan to set a zipper in the back and then add the (15!!!!) buckles per boot.
If any one wants to check out the boots they are here.

Herg. So pricey.
I picked this pair of boots up and plan to attach the straps and buckles.
s4ffron, What buckles did you pick up?

I bought these from Tandy Leather (at least I think it was the 3/4" might have been 5/8"). I have a membership there so they weren't too expensive. Not completely accurate but...they will do for now!
And yeah, the Topshops are suuuper pricey but...I figured if I was going to pour a whole lot of time into making them look like Laurel's I should get the closest base boot I could, plus they are comfy! I couldn't bring myself to purchase Sara's boot so this is my reward, right?
...I am getting expensively obsessed with this cosplay.
