Slowly Purging


for sale

I've got a lot of clothes and accessories that I haven't touched in a while or haven't even worn at all. So I'll be selling them. Most are $5 and under. =) Go shop!

Great Wear Really is Great

I know I'm up pretty late, but I can't get to sleep just yet. You know how you get a burst of energy after a workout? Yeah. So now I'd like to rave about my recent discovery of the perfect eyeliner. Maybelline's Great Wear waterproof and smudgeproof eyeliner is really what it's name indicates, great wear. It glides on so smoothly, and does not smudge throughout the day! Even after my workout, it stayed put. I bought them in a variety of colors: onyx, dark chocolate, deep plum, jade. After I first tried this eyeliner, I stocked up on some more. I got them at the 99cent store. I know, you're thinking You use makeup from the 99cent store?! But not to worry, they still work wonders. Plus can't beat the price when they're regularly $6!

Thrift Finds

Haven't been thrifting in what seems like ages! =P So I headed to my usual shop, Thrift Town, today to do some hunting. And I found some great stuff!


I absolutely love this retro/vintage swimsuit by Sirena! The padding made my breasts look abnormal, so I ripped them out. Now it's perfection! Bought for $3.99.



I've been searching eBay for boots like these. Good thing I held off, cuz I bought these for $4.99.




I like this straw clutch wallet, but not exactly sure when I'd use it. But at 69cents, I just bought it anyway. haha

Tokidoki will Make Me VERY Poor
