I'm happiest about the J.Crew dupes.  They're always really nice quality!  They do look expensive in person.

Just found out that the pink gem necklace is Shourok inspired...it resembles their Tabetha necklace the most.

Taylor - Black bubble dress with silk floral accents:  $10.50
Black purse with gold panther figure:  $4.20

Both @ Value Village

And, both 30% off because of my pass.  I wasn't sure about the dress, but once I tried it on I was smitten!  The fit is so flattering.  It looks great on.

I was super happy about the purse...I love these gold feline purses!  They just look so high end, since none of the cheap brands make purses like this anymore.  

The only thing - I totally regret not buying this dress I was eyeing before.  It was a black silk dress with crystal/rhinestone floral accents.  It fit everywhere but the bust, but it looked like it could work if I took it out/lost some weight.

Well, I thought I shouldn't buy anything that doesn't fit me perfectly, so I left it there.  

When I looked it up online...I found out it retailed for around $2000!!!  I was totally kicking myself when I found that out.

Ironically, I knew it was an expensive brand when I saw it because I had heard of it before...but I never bothered to look up the actual prices before that.  I thought that maybe it was in the $400 range.  Well, I have a good deal of dresses in that price range so it was no big deal.

But I don't have any $2000 dresses!  Geez, it would have been totally worth the alterations for that!  

I didn't want to go back since I thought it was probably gone, and I didn't want to go for nothing.  I did leave it in a pretty noticeable place.  Plus, it would have been full price since I already used my pass!

Oh well.  Lesson learned!  Someone else can enjoy it for now.

Lots of great ones in this round!  I'm happiest about the panther necklace, the design is so neat.  I also love the gem/snake necklaces and the filigree ones, especially since I got the latter for dirt cheap.  Hurray!

Nima - Black purse with gold metal panther emblem:  $6 @ Sisters (RP:  $9.99)

The purse was a bit of an impulse buy.  I don't normally like going into that shop since the prices are kind of high, and I don't like such personalized attention.  I'm pretty much the only person in there whenever I go!

They were having a 40% off sale, and I hadn't been there in a while, so I decided to go in.

I'm glad I did!  This purse caught my eye right away, I thought it was so neat.

I almost didn't buy it because the material was kind of crappy.  A kind of hard, waterproof nylon.

But I'm glad I came to my senses and bought it.  It's so unique, I love it!

The brand wasn't anywhere on my bag, but I found out who made it by researching online.

It turns out they have a ton of other gold feline emblem bags, including the same one in white:


I feel like I prefer the white, but this black one is pretty charming too.  Plus, I haven't seen this colour on the internet before!
