Little Black Bag

[HelloLeilani]

I was so stuck on the "I'm With The Band" color of my nail polish 'cause it says it's an edgy pink, but it looks red in the picture to me. I really wish I could see the color better. I think since I ruined the "theme" of my bag for the Gorjana bracelet I'm going to go after Beverly Hills Bunny. Deep hot pink nail polishes sing to me from the bottle.

The only reason I was willing to give up that Cargo eyeshadow quad is because 1. The girl with the Cargo Topeka blush had taken over a day to pass or accept my trade. I got impatient. lol. and 2. I have almost those exact same eyeshadow colors, but better, in my Kat Von D Sinner palette (fave palette EVERRR). I wasn't losing any personal value trading it, and had a lot to gain by acquiring another Gorjana (also known as 'jewelry waaay too pricey off of LBB') piece.

Okay, found a swatch of "I'm With The Band" and it's firey red based coral. I'm not sure where LBB got pink from? lol. Unless they consider coral as pink? I just think of coral, as, well, coral. 

Anyway, I'm thinking I'm too yellow undertoned for this color and it would end up looking dark red-orange on me. I'm loving the huge bottles and high shine finish though! Super looking forward to trying out one of these ncLA polishes. I knew from the start of my bag that I would like to end up with one.

The purple glittery ncLA color they have on LBB sometimes:

Three other colors, including "I'm With The Band" again, which I like a WHOLE LOT more in these photos 

 I think I'd love it as a pedicure color this summer:

Also, I know it's not popular with everyone but I love those long W/A earrings that are different tones of red, the $60 ones. I'm a bit sad sometimes that I traded it a couple LBBs ago. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />( I think they are really exotic.

I love them, too. They were offered for my branch earrings, but nothing is tempting me away from them! BTW, a few days ago I wrote that I was trying to get the neon orange bangle, and through another group I'm getting it by trading a completely different piece of jewelry for it via snail mail. Yay!

I love those branch earrings! They are so delicate and gorgeous. And congrats on scoring the piece you wanted, elsewhere. Yaaaay indeed!!!

Got offered the Gorjana Tinsley necklace for my Zara Terez earrings... oh the pain of passing that... the paaaaaiiiiin!

so i'm trying to find pictures of this pastel beaded necklace but can't find any...but from what it looks like on their website it's actually only $16 inches in length (the entire chain. which would make this fit almost like a collar necklace. That's pretty cute! Don't know if it's my style though...

The fringe one that I have as well? If so I found video of it and IT'S GORGEOUS AND I LOVE IT! lol.

Someone is trying to trade me the $55 Betsey Johnson necklace for my Gorjana bracelet now. TORTURE! LBB is TORTURE today! I want to take all of these gorgeous trade offers.

oops i mean 16 inches, not dollars haha

no it's the beaded pastel $30 one that i'm stuck with and literally no one wants haha.  I'm going to have to trade down big time...i was having such good luck and no i'm not! no one will even let me trade up my cute $20 earrings that everyone used to want for a hammered collar /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[javagirl87]

it's ridiculous frustrating when someone accepts an offer for way below when you offered them an equal value trade.

I actually like how that pastel necklace looks on the site, it looks beautiful, I almost shipped my bag yesterday with it, but I could not find a better picture of it online anywhere. I get so scared about taking too many chances with 'ZAD jewelry without seeing it first. Like, reaaaalllly seeing it. haha.

 

[HelloLeilani]

Whoa, there's a chick that opened two bags within 3 minutes. 

 

[javagirl87]

is it sad I may try and trade all 3 of my items for the stone earrings if no one accepts by tomorrow? haha that's $80...but honestly the items I have are only worth about 40-45 for me since I don't even want that $30 necklace.

haha, I can't answer that as I was the girl who put out *nice* $170 to $180 trades for the $93 Deux Lux sparkly bag when I had $350 in jewelry. I'm SO thankful no one accepted as I ended up getting that bag my very next LBB with FIVE other items in addition to that bag! woohooo!

yeah but this is my last bag for 3 months!! who knows when i'll be able to get those earrings /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> and i won't be in the country to even get them if I do buy them from amazon...bah

 

[VintageSpade]

How on earth can they afford that many bags. I mean, seven? You can't trade with yourself and there can't be that many things there she wants... Sheesh

I know. I wanted those earrings really badly too. I was a bit bummed she chose my Betsey trade at first, but it worked out 'cause my other trade scored the Gorjana bracelet I wanted. I said I would probably shed tears of joy if I got both trades somehow, and I surely did tear up. LOL. So happy.

I really hope you get the earrings too.

 

[javagirl87]

i'm also not even sure anyone would accept...i put out $130 nice trade for the $70 hobo bag last time and no no one ever wanted them /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
