Little Black Bag

[lechatonrose]

I have a 5k in 5 hours, but my bag closes in an hour. I think there needs to be a 12 step program or something. . .

 

[GypsyHeart]

That 5K will be a lot more than twelve steps!

I've never heard of that marcus brand, but I LOVE Archipelago. I have their pomegranate set and the hand creme is my favorite ever! The only thing that could be improved for me is the scent, a little too artificial in the lotion but definitely suited for the candle and soap /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I really meant this "Truth Art Beauty" brand, have you or anyone ever heard of this one before LBB? But they shove it in everyone's bag! Also never heard of Ncla, anyone know anything about them?

I am still tempted by LBB.  I just wish there were a way to completely opt out of all jewelry. I HATE jewelry, but I love all the bags and clutches and wallets and makeup. Sigh.

If you have been watching and learning you could still wind up with just bags, wallets, etc. You will have to trade in jewelry and find out what others really want, but then trade up for more bags, or makeup, or accessories, etc. I have seen people end up with like 3 or 4 bags and no jewelry!

I know how the trading works, but I'd also really like an option to just NOT get the jewelry to begin with, you know?  Because with the hours I work (until 10 pm every night, UGH), I don't have the time to try and try to trade a billion things, I like having trading as an option but I wouldn't want to HAVE to use it to get items I won't hate. I  am never very lucky with that kind of thing and I know it wouldn't end well for me, I'd just end up canceling every bag.

All of my bags have been wallets, clutches, and make up. I've only had one pair of earrings in 6 bags! And those were earrings I wanted. You can definitely not have any jewelry. GIVE IT A TRY BUT BE CAREFUL ITS ADDICTING.

ahh only oneof four people have looked at my offer for the earrings (I want to trade my blush for them)

i think i'll be okay shipping my bag tomorrow night since it takes a few days for them to even put through the forwarding mail thing anyway haha

LBB comes via UPS anyway...so mail forwarding shouldn't affect it, right?

I have started up several bags (but not actually ordered them...you know, added my main item and then it tells you the brand and category of the other two before you check out?  Well, EVERY SINGLE TIME the other two items for me are jewelry. I don't think LBB and I are meant to be. Just don't want to have to rely on trading to try to get rid of jewelry which I hate with a fiery passion, because I am not a lucky person.

It's so easy to trade them away for make up though! I promise! If you open it and put your info in, you can still cancel within your 7 trading days, they don't charge until you ship!

Birchbox gave out samples of them a while ago. Actually I've been trying to get my hands on it since I lost my sample, so I was thrilled to see it on LBB.

i was wondering that as well...I may call on monday and ask them about that. I would really like the full 7 days for this bag, I keep changing my mine on a couple of my items (the eagle necklace, it's cute but doesnt' fit my hair style/glasses that i wear haha) and i don't like the $26 necklace I have right now.

Well, UPS and USPS are totally different systems so I don't think they'd share address changes. But yeah, give them a call and see what they say!

oh man. that half moon necklace that Leilani got is amazing!! I just saw this video and it's a lot smaller than I though and actually more dainty! someone is offering me it for my $26 necklace (but in gold) and i think i have to take it haha. no one wants them but they're actually pretty cute for going out

 

[javagirl87]

alright, i'm going for it, i'm offering 2 necklaces for those earrings!! I really want them, and i'm not paying $60 on amazon for them haha

I didn't actually end up getting that one a few LBBs ago, but I wish I did. It's so cute!!! 

I'm looking for video/better photos of the one I currently have in my LBB. It looks so pretty and very me, I just need to see how it sits on the neck. If I like it then I'm shipping my bag, right meooow. YAAAY!

 

[javagirl87]

i was considering shipping this morning but then realized that they wouldn't even send out my things till around monday haha so i might as well wait!
