That $2.50 one was such a great deal!  Mine was the lowest...all of the rest were $6+.  It's huge and beautiful in person so I'm really happy!

I love the first necklace too.  It's even better than I expected!  I've seen them on aliexpress for as low as $6.66, but I knew I might be able to get one cheaper on auction.  I'm glad I waited.

I was almost certain that the first seller was a scammer, so imagine my surprise when I received the top three necklaces today!  I won more from him, so I'm happy that those are actually coming.

These actually came in the last two days, but I thought it was easier to put them all together.  So much good stuff in this round!

I'm happiest about the snake rings...just the red, clear, and black ones.  The other ones are so much smaller, I wish I didn't pay as much for them!  They're around 1/4 of the size...I didn't think to check the measurements, since they looked exactly like the big ones!

The black one is the highest I've paid for a ring, but I really wanted it!  That was the first one the seller listed, so I didn't know they'd have more.  Luckily that one ended up being huge, so I'm still glad I bought it.

I wish I didn't buy most of the ones from that one seller in the middle.  They were a lot worse than expected!  That seller's pretty hit and miss.  This one was the best one though, it was $2.06:


I'm happiest about the first necklace.  I wish I could have gotten it for a bit less though, since I've seen it go for about $4.30 on aliexpress.

Here's the original J.Crew necklace:


It retailed for $56.50!

Finally, a manageable day!  Most of these were great too.  I was most excited about the chains necklace...I considered paying full price for it, but now I'm glad I didn't.  When I discovered it, it was never on auction, but oh how things change!

Turns out it's very similar to Topshop's mixed chain drape collar, which retailed for $90! 

This is what the original Shourouk necklace looks like:


That one retailed for $740, which is crazy, considering the materials aren't anything special.  This dupe looks nearly the same, except some of the stones are different colours.

All off eBay.

The lace dress was an impulse buy, because I didn't expect it to end so low.  Plus, the promo pictures were so unflattering...surprisingly, it's beautiful in person!

But a bit too small for me.  At that price though, I couldn't resist.  Ironically, I paid the most on auction!  The other ones ended at $4.25 and $4.50, which is just an insane deal.  Really makes me wish I didn't pay $14 for the blue one!

Those J.Crew dupes are just amazing.  They look exactly the same as the originals!  I seriously can't tell the difference.  These are the official ones:


What I paid was literally 1% of the price!  I really don't understand why J.Crew charges so much for costume jewelry.

I love everything that came today!  Most of them were awesome deals too.

I'm most excited about the ASOS stuff...I'm almost positive that it's the exact same thing, since they are made in China.  Official pictures:


Even though my ears aren't pierced, I had to get those earrings!  They're so unique and pretty.  I'll just have to convert them to clip ons.

Most of the rings are from the same seller.  That guy has a lot of unique stuff that I don't see anywhere else...plus, it's a lot easier to just follow him than to look around ebay!  I don't even bother with general listings anymore.

Most of the necklaces are from the same person as well.  They always mass list things, and I win a bunch of things from them every week!  The quality and designs are always great, and since they have so many on auction, it's easy to get a deal.  Yay!

Pink unicorn clutch:  $4.25 (Highest:  $20+)


ASOS Filigree gold and silver leaf ear cuffs:  $.99 (for the pair) (RSP:  $15.69 each)

All off eBay.

I normally go for thing that are sophisticated, but I couldn't resist that unicorn clutch!  It was just so cute and fun.

It was also kind of an impulse buy...I didn't expect to win for that low!  Well, I thought it was low at the time, but someone won one for $2.75 after that. 

I've seen them sold for $30+ in stores!  I really don't understand why.  If they just looked around, they could get it for half that price or less.  I've seen some crazy people asking for $60....I could get every colour for less than that on ebay!

I don't know if I'll use this one out.  I thought I might just use it to hold stuff around my room.  If I dress too young I'm going to look like a teenager, and I don't want that.

To my surprise though, the black version actually does look pretty fashionable!  I'd have no problem wearing that one out, but the fantasy ones don't really work in my opinion.  These are all of the colours: 

I also won a red one for the same price, and I'm a bit unsure about how good that one looks.  Black would be a no-brainer, since it's such a muted colour.  Well, I guess I'll see when I get there!

Fuchsia bird necklace:  $1.29 (BIN:  $3.99)
Green gem leaves necklace:  $1.04 (BIN:  $3.50)

All off eBay.

The rose necklace was a pretty big disappointment...in that, it wasn't as big as I thought it would be!  It looks pretty huge in the photo, but in person it's tiny.  I definitely wouldn't have paid that much for a necklace that dinky.

Ironically, I did pay the least!  All of the other ones were twice my price or more, so I guess I should be happy I got a deal.

All off eBay.

Pretty happy with all of these ones, especially the turquoise necklace!  It's way bigger than I expected, and it looks gorgeous on.

It's a copy of this Zara rhinestone necklace:


It does look like the same mold, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was made in the same factory as the original.  They never came in this colour though, as far as I know.

It took a surprising amount of time to win those leopard heart glasses!  Of course, after I won it, a bunch of them went for way lower than I paid. 

I'm pretty happy about the starfish cuff.  It's such a neat idea, and it looks great on!  I'll probably wear it to the beach or something.

Pretty happy with all of these!  They took way longer to come than usual though...about a month and a half for most of them.

The ring was a lot cheaper in person, but I suppose it still looks alright.  I just thought it'd be way bigger!

I've been trying to win that nova check scarf since last year!  I'm glad I finally won one for the starting bid.

I'm also really happy about that leopard necklace.  It's so neat and kitsch!

I'm really happy about the thick chain necklace.  I'm hoping to win more like that in the future!  A gold one would be nice.

I thought the elephant necklace might be a bit tacky....and maybe it is, but I love it!  I just things elephants are so adorable.  I thought the necklace was cute and quirky so I had to have it.

The bracelets were kind of disappointing.  They looked nice in the pictures, but I didn't like them very much in person.

Especially the first one!  You couldn't see the leaf pattern at all..it was just a uniform glittery sheen.

I'm all jewelried out for a while!  The only thing I have left right now are a couple of bracelets and a necklace.

I really wasn't expecting all of this mail today!  A lot of these things were in the mail for over two months, I thought they were lost for good.  The norm is a month afterall..

Anyway, I'm pretty happy with most of these items, especially the metal cuffs in the last row.  The leaf one is awesome!  The swarovski leaf one is gorgeous too, I'm so glad I bought it when I did.

Conversely, I'm annoyed I paid so much for the last three, which ended up being plastic.  Too bad, I really liked the design of the last one!  It just feels so cheap on, I just can't do it.

Wowee, I didn`t expect a day like this anytime soon!  I hope my mailman doesn`t hate me.

My favourite of this lot is the heart cuff..I love it!  It`s stretchy, but just enough so that it stays on firmly (without squeezing me to death).  Everything is the right proportion, it`s just so great!  I have another one in white coming to me shortly.

Unbelievably, BOTH of the spiked collar necklace arrive broken!  I ended up with two accidentally, and ironically, now I`ll have none!  


I hope the seller doesn`t think I`m a scammer.
