Seduction - gathered top with belt:  $5 @ Mariposa (RSP:  $20.50)

I'll admit that I probably wouldn't have bought this top if it didn't come with a belt.  I just don't like buying belts separately when I can get a piece of clothing along with it for the same price.

Club couture - brown platform boots:  $6.50 @ Mariposa (RSP:  $39.50)

I love these boots!  They're my current favourite.  They look amazing, and they're pretty comfortable to wear due to the platform at the front. 

Buckle accents, zippered closure, fur lined on the inside-these are amazing quality for the price!  Finding these made my month. 

Club couture - dark tan slouch boots:  $6.50 @ Mariposa (RSP:  $39.50)

I wasn't really sure about these boots.  I do like the style, and they are comfortable, but they just look so cheaply made (especially compared to the other amazing boots I bought today).  Basically flimsy, fabric covered heels.  I prefer my shoes made out of stiffer materials.

I ended up getting them because I don't have any comfortable boots in this colour, and I probably won't be able to find boots like this for that price again.

Club couture - silver gladiator heels:  $6.50 @ Mariposa (RSP:  $29.50)

I actually bought this pair of shoes twice!  The first time, I didn't notice that the shoes were actually mismatched sizes.  They felt fine at first, but ended up being pretty uncomfortable after a while..which led me to discover they were both one size apart.

The stupidest part was, all parts were there when I went!  I actually inspected both pairs, but only saw the right size each time. 

When I went to exchange them the next day, the pair was already gone.  I ended up just returning it since I thought I could find them again, but sadly, I didn't see it at any of the other stores I went to.  I pretty much gave up until I saw them again today!

Only one pair, and they just happened to be the right size.  The only problem was, one of the straps was coming off because the stud holding it in was missing.  

Still, I just had to buy it again after this whole ordeal!  I glued it down and no one's the wiser.
