Some of those took two months to arrive!  I hope that's not going to be the standard shipping time from now on.

The crochet top came ripped, so the seller said they'd send me another one.  We'll see.

And all from my usual seller!  I just can't help myself..he always has such great stuff.  I just found out that one of the rings retailed for $16, so I'm sure most of them go for at least $10 each.

Most of them are really high quality and the designs are so neat.  I don't bother looking for rings anywhere else!

I didn't get these all on one day, but they all came this week.  Thought I might as well put them together.

I was supposed to get this ring too, but the seller forgot to include it:


Too bad, it was gorgeous!  I wish they could have resent it, but they said they didn't have any more.

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.

Big mail day today.  My favourite one is the Zara necklace...it even came in a pretty box!  Here's the official picture:

It retailed for $66!  Now the J.Crew one:


That one retailed for $138.  I could buy so many things with that!

I'm happiest about the snake ring and the Lanvin dupe.  That seller always has great snake rings!  I just wish I didn't buy the cameo ones from him.  They're way smaller than I expected, and I just don't like them as much as I thought I would.

And all in the same day!  I wish things were spread out evenly, it would be a lot easier to keep track of.

Anyway, a lot of dupes in this round.  I think the Zara ones might even technically be the same thing, because they are made in China as well. 

Here's a photo of the official ones:



They really look exactly the same to me...except mine were around 5% of the retail price!

Surprisingly, the mesh snake necklace ended up being a lot heavier than the belt I got!  Not as heavy as my vintage one, but almost.  I guess the quality varies.

I though the eye necklace looked cool, but I don't know how good it looks on.  I guess we'll see.

What a mail day!  I haven't had this many packages in a long time.  Most of them were really great deals too, so I'm pretty happy with most of it.

I'm happiest about the 3 finger ring -- it's gorgeous!  I didn't think I'd like it as much as I do.  It's just so unique...I don't have any other ones like it!  It was dirt cheap too, which was also nice.

The glasses were a buy it now, but I thought the price was reasonable enough.  These are dolce and gabbana knockoffs, but I'm not sure if the originals ever came in this colour.

The rings...I just love animal jewelry.  The section is a headache to navigate around though, so I haven't bought as many as I'd like.

I already have a gold mesh snake belt, but this one looked a bit different so I wanted to get it too.  To my surprise...it's so much lighter than my vintage one!  Probably about 1/4 the weight.

For the price, I'm not surprised.  A lot of the vintage ones go for $20+!  I had seen some costume ones that looked the same for around $10 new, but I think they're probably lighter like these ones.

I just found out that the gem necklace is a dupe of J. Crew's jewel encrusted necklace, except in different colours:


I don't think J.Crew has anything made in China, but this looks exactly the same to me!  I've read that some people say that these ones are the same quality as the real thing...so I really don't see why there's such a huge markup for costume jewelry.

I probably shouldn't buy any more corsets, but I really didn't think they'd go that cheap.  I don't have any like these ones anyway!

I'm really happy about that bubble bib necklace.  I've been trying to win it for about a year!

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'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.

Green snakeskin skull duster clutch:  $18.74 off Aliexpress (RSP:  $25+)

I thought I got a great deal, until I saw somebody else get one for only $14!!  That's a crazy price.  I never thought it would go so low.  That was from the same seller too!  I wish I saw that sale, it was only a month before I ordered it.

Well, I didn't think this would come in the first place.  I bought another item from the seller a month before, and it never arrived.  I'm sure it was never sent...I waited two months, and the tracking number never worked in that time!

I was expecting this to be the same, so imagine my surprise when this came today.  I just wish they sent the other one too!

I'm in love with that lace collar!  The little heart charms are such a great addition.

I actually ended up getting two of the double snake necklace, but I have no idea why!  I got one from a different seller, I'm not sure which one made the mistake.

Gold skull duster purses in crocodile print (fuchsia, black, white):  $13.44 each


Pink/gold skull duster clutch:  $14.98
Pink/brown/purple snakeskin cobra skull duster clutch:  $11.97

All off aliexpress

...besides the black one.  I got that one off amazon for free since I used my points.  I'm pretty happy with all of them, they were all such good deals!

I've wanted the gold handle ones for a long time, since I always use them and that's the colour I prefer.  They're even better in person!  I wish I could have gotten them for cheaper (especially considering how low my other ones were), but I was ok with that price.

The pink clutch is gorgeous!  That one was actually regular price.  I wasn't sure how it would look in person (especially since the last pink one I got was completely different than expected), but it looks just like the picture.  I love how pale and pearly it is.

The cobra one was an afterthought, since I noticed this seller had a crazy $12 off coupon with only a $20 minimum!  I was worried they wouldn't honour it, but thankfully they did.

I had to choose a different colour (the one I bought was silver), and this would have been my last choice.  I'm probably just going to reupholster it.

Lace cobra handle clutches:  $19.38 each off Aliexpress

I only wanted one, but it was so much cheaper when you bought two!  I thought I would customize the second one, but now I wish I only got one.  I found one way cheaper later on, even though that was just a one time deal as well.

I still think this was a great deal though.  They're normally 30+ everywhere else.  The seller raised the price by $10 after I bought these!

Snake/skull handle red snakeskin clutch:  $26.59 free off eBay (RSP:  $40+)

This is just so cool!  It ended up looking exactly like the picture.

It was a bit more than I wanted to pay, but since I had just gotten money from swagbucks, it ended up being free for me.  Well, I also got some money back through ebates.

This is a pretty direct knockoff of a McQueen handle, but surprisingly, it still looks pretty good.

There's another one in lace that I'm thinking about getting.  I just love this handle!
