Flower bouquet ring:  $1.04
Royal blue quilted purse:  $4.93
Black rose belt:  $1.06

All off Ebay

Delicious - brown knee high boots:  $10

Bought these off of Craigslist-they were described as only being tried on once at home, which is the highest degree of 'used' I would accept.  

It took a while to arrange a meet up with the seller, and for a while I didn't think it would happen..but I'm really glad it did, because the boots are gorgeous!  Much better than expected.

Sele - little black dress:  $.70 @ Winners (RSP:  $40+)
Jessica Simpson rope belt:  $.70 @ Winners (RSP:  $44)


Wishes Wishes Wishes - blue satin dress:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $50+)
C'est moi - black/white dress:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $50+)


Ali & Kris - pink plaid bustier top:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $34)
Ali & Kris - blue plaid bustier top:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $34)

This one was pretty cleared out-there was literally only one tiny round rack of clothing left when I arrived.  How ironic that I ended up buying most of my clothing from this location.

And so ends this round of Winner's final clearance.  It sure was a great one-I can't wait until next year!

Dreams - purple caged shoes:  $1 @ Winners (RSP:  $60)
Chinese Laundry - chain belt:  $.30 @ Winners (RSP:  $38.50)
Buffalo by David Bitton- black belt:  $1 @  Winners (RSP:  $25)

I really like the look of the shoes, but I might return them because they're too big.  A size larger than I normally wear..and pretty wobbly to walk in.  

Then I think, they were only a buck!  At the very least, I do like looking at them....they were that cheap because one of the zippers is broken.  I don't have any other shoes that look exactly like that, and I keep on thinking I could make them work somehow. 

The chain belt is broken too (missing the stud to link the belt together), but I'm sure I can fix it.

The last one was broken too, but it's a really easy fix.  The fabric covering the buckle just needs to be glued back on.  

I guess these were all still left since nobody else likes fixer uppers!

Unfortunately, I had to work on this day, so I was really rushed in the end.  Since I was starting around mid day, I couldn't go to all of the ones that I originally wanted to.

This was the last one on my list.  It was pretty far away, and I had never been there before...since I was so strapped for time, I almost considered not going.

Well, I'm really glad I reconsidered!  This was the best one yet-shoe heaven!  I got a lot of crazy stares when I was filling my cart, but it was so worth it.

The grey dress is my favourite piece of clothing from this entire clearance haul-it's gorgeous!  Most of them were $5, but this one was the only one clearanced lower for some reason. 

It's actually already my size too, so that's a plus.

I was exhausted at work after this entire run, but at least I was extremely happy :). 

Wishes Wishes Wishes - black/grey lace up dress w/lace accents:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $45+)
Boom Boom Jeans- ruffled jean dress:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $50+)


JFW by Just for Wraps - jean dress:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $40+)
Jessica Simpson - JP Oneil heels:  $3 @ Winners (RSP:  $125)
Chinese Laundry - Suzana heels:  $5 @ Winners (RSP:  $70) 

Finally, some clothes!  I was really starting to think that I would walk away empty in this department.  Nothing else I had seen previously was worthwhile.

Some of these are a bit too big for me, but that'll be an easy fix.  Totally worth it for the price!

The shoes are both size 10's-normally way too large for me in that type of shoe, but surprisingly, the Chinese Laundry pair fits pretty perfectly.

The Jessica Simpson shoes don't fit as well, but they seem pretty workable.  I like the design, and it was a great price, so I probably won't return them.

Dollhouse - Molly sandals:  $5 @ Winners (RSP:  $60)
Michael Antonio - Taji - gladiator heels:  $3 @ Winners (RSP:  $60)
Dollhouse - Lidyana sandals:  $3 @ Winners (RSP:  $40) 

I was realllly happy by this point of the day.  Little did I know that this would be the start of a rather fearsome shoe windfall.
