Halston Heritage - Pink peplum top:  $12 @ Winners (RSP:  $129.99 - $245)

It's final clearance time!  I was a bit late to the game, this was the first one I checked out.  They didn't have anything really good there, so I was surprised I found something at all!

It was a bit more than I wanted to pay, but considering how much it retailed for, I thought it was worth buying .

I'll admit that the brand was part of the reason I bought it...I've always wanted something from Halston!  Some official photos of it:

It looks way better in person!  These photos aren't flattering at all.

Bath and body works - Warm Vanilla Sugar mini body mist:  free (RSP:  $5.50)

Glittery handybac holder:  $.50 

Both @ Bath and body works

They had a coupon, so I decided to take advantage.  I don't know how good their body sprays are, but for that price, I was definitely willing to give them a try.

The rest of the things are freebies that people were handing out downtown.  It must have been the end of their day since they were handing out a bunch!

Pink faux python skin skull duster clutch:  $19.99 off aliexpress (RSP:  $25 - $50+)

I'm in love with these skull clutches, so it's my goal to have every handle available!  This one features a sword skewering three skulls...there's even a rope entwining the entire thing!  So very cool.

I normally try to wait for a sale on aliexpress, but this price seemed reasonable enough so I went for it.  It's as nice as I expected, though I thought it would be a richer gold from the promo pictures.

The fake python skin is actually really nice too, the nicest I've seen so far.  It's raised and textured, plus they lined up the right parts in the middle.  I also really love the colour.

I think this one handle is good enough for me.  I haven't seen any other ones that were as nice (except the white one, which is pretty much the same as this one).  I don't care for it in silver or grey, and I don't think it looks as good on a shorter box clutch.

This is my first box clutch of this length!  I actually prefer it, and am now trying to get more in that size!  

Leopard skull duster clutch:  $11.82 $7.82 off aliexpress

This was a total surprise!  It's actually a really ugly dark brown colour...the pictures were so misleading, I was shocked when I opened up the package!

I really can't blame them though...this photographs odd.  Even I can't get an accurate photo!  It always photographs lighter and brighter, but trust me when I say it's a lot uglier in person.

Actually, I do blame them!  It would have taken a lot of photoshop to go from that to this.  It's so misleading!  It's more of a dark mud brown opposed to a bright tan colour, and the spots really aren't distinct.  It all fades together, unlike how it pops in the promos.

They were all going for around $15 on ebay at the time, so I decided to bite the bullet and buy one here.

Now I wish I didn't, because they've gone as low as $6.50 on ebay recently!  And for the quality, that's more what it's worth.

I've never had fake pony hair before, but it sucks.  It's basically just printed fur.

*edit*

I gave them neutral feedback and they ended up giving me $4 back.  I wasn't expecting that at all!  I actually bought more from that seller and everything else was great, I'd definitely buy from them again.

Black quilted skull knuckle duster clutch:  $12.59 $2.59 off amazon.ca (RSP:  $20+)

I used my swagbucks to get it this cheap!  I could have gotten it completely free if I waited a bit more.

This is the most common skull handle box clutch, but I waited this long to get one because I was looking for a deal.  The cheapest ones on ebay are $13.50, so this was a decent deal even without the swagbucks.  I've seen them sell for $30+ elsewhere!

I've seen them for even cheaper on aliexpress ($9.90 was the lowest), but since I had the gift cards, I thought this was a better route.

I was really surprised by the quality...even though this was my cheapest buy it now, it ended up being the best quality!  All of my other one had minor flaws of some kind...scratches, small chips, or puckered edges from sloppy upholstering.  This had none of that!

I'm planning on buying around 2 more from this seller.  It depends on how easy it is to customize! 

Novi stars - Orbit beach Una, Ari, Mae, and Alie:  $5.09 each (RSP:  $19.99 each)
Novi stars - Winter fashion pack:  $2.99 (RSP:  $10)

All @ Target

Well, now I'm glad I only bought two of them!  Luckily I could still return them, and since they still had them in stock, I was able to get the entire set uber cheap!



This is why I love Target..I just wish it wasn't so out of the way!  The one in my city opens in the fall, so at least I have that to look forward to.

I initially didn't think the outfit pack was worth it, especially considering that the dolls were only $2 more.

But...I thought the outfit was neat and cheap enough so I bought it.

I'm so happy I got such a deal!  They had a ton of them left, so I guess no kids really like this line.

Even the basics were $6.89...I was thinking about getting Alie and the cyclops, but in the end, I just didn't like them as much.

Plus, I was hoping they'd go even cheaper!  They have a ton of them left.  If they go down to $5 each I'll get them, otherwise I could do without them.

They had 2 of the 3 dolls I already had, so I kind of wish I waited.  I could have saved $6!  I was really surprised they didn't have more of the original dolls there.

Bratzillaz - Midnight beach Jade, Cloetta,Yasmina, and Meygana:  $5.99 each @ Target (RSP:  $19.99 each)
Maybelline - Color show nail polish in Audacious Asphalt:  $.76 (RSP:  $2.99+)

I've never really liked bratz, but I find these dolls interesting.  Of course, I wasn't willing to pay too much for them, and I still don't like their faces.



But...I love dolls that glow in the dark, so I had to take these home!  I initially didn't want to buy all of them (2 or 3 would have been good), but I decided they were all worth it.  I did leave one behind though, so at least there's that.  I would have bought the mermaid, but she was the only one they didn't have.

I left behind the very last girl...I thought her outfit was stupid, and she didn't seem very distinct.  She looked a lot like the first two girls, except much plainer.

I actually would have left behind the second girl if she had black sunglasses...I'm not sure what's up with that.  A lot the ones online do have them that colour, but red looks so much better!  I only bought her because I noticed she had heart shaped eyes.

They had a bunch of the normal bratzillaz on sale too, but they weren't as low as this one.  Plus, they didn't glow in the dark either!  They're neat, but not neat enough for me to buy.  I think these are good enough for me, as long as they don't come out with something else as cool.

The nail polish was an afterthought.  I don't have that shade and it was cheap enough...I just found out I could have gotten it free though, so I'm pretty annoyed about that.
