No no the pleasure was all mine.

I started to think and I can see myself wearing those hoops almost everyday and the color is GORGEOUS whether they are blue on the LBB site or green on the Gorjana site I will wear them regardless. I don't even look at the trades on them because I'm afraid I'll get a good uptrade or something else I've been lusting after and then I'll be torn.

The bag is beautiful and I don't have a patent one atm but I do have 3 bow clutches already and honestly I usually carry huge bags so I can't really see myself carrying that unless I go out somewhere fancy (which I never do because my kids are attached at my hip). There was no point holding on to it or even keeping it if it was going to collect dust in my purse chest (yes I have a chest). I'd much rather it get the love it deserves.

Plus I wouldn't have even had her if you hadn't told me about Klout so she was rightfully yours anyway /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

But I have WAY too much stuff from this site and need to take a break from it.

It's already embarrassing that I have 3 purses, and all kinds of jewelry from them!

I plan on gifting some of it to friends though.

I'm so sad that that bag was added on the last day of this bag ending. I would have traded for it, I was desperately offering stuff for it but only one person has it and they weren't on. =(

That said, I am super impressed with the Disney Couture jewelry and the Betsey Johnson. The earrings even still have the price tag on them that says $40. So I feel like I really got a good deal on both of my bags, even though it's expensive, it's completely worth the money!

The thing I thought was weird was that the Cargo palette is not at all what they showed. They showed a very vividly pigmented eyeshadow set with bright colors. What I got is a very dulled down version of that. The cream looking color is actually a yellow, the orangey browns are more of dull dirt colors, and the one that looks like a coral blush is a dulled down version of that color. It's like they upped the saturation or something. Luckily I wear neutrals, so this set is totally fine, but I have to wonder how the ones that look crazy bright actually are in person after seeing th)s set.

I had an offer for the Saks Ipad bag but immediately clicked the x on it because I have a Kindle Fire. I can't even remember what it was on, I think my Micha earrings? Open the bag you know you want to /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Aughhh.

I opened it. I swear this site is crack. This has to be my last bag though. The only way I can rationalize this is that I ended up getting my gym membership SUPER discounted, and it would have cost me the same as all these bags. But I really really need to not buy any more.

I might end up cancelling this one after a few days, just to get the bug out of my system.

yeah i've totally admitted my addiction to this site...I'm so glad i'm leaving the country or else I would waste all my money this summer without a job!! (M.A. students don't to teach in the summer in my program)

 

[HelloLeilani]

 I saw this online the other day! LOL! I'm thankful that LBB only has a limited amount of Betsey stuff or I'd *always* have a bag open.

My bag I closed last night. I still had 4 days left, but am very happy with it. I really need to wait until June to open another bag as this one was my 3 bag this month.

OMG! Le chaton rose, I can't believe you got that horseshoe necklace for one of those horrible bibs! BRAVO!!!

So you're the one who wouldn't trade the Nica bag? *shakes fist at you*

Lol yep, was not letting it go. Though I though there were like 10 or something? I didn't start out with the Nica bag. I actually had one of the new bags from Monday, but was able to work that up in bags until I got a 4 item trade and then worked up some more until I had a 3 item trade worth enough for it. Which actually just turned out to be a scarf, the bikini bag and the cloud decals. I was surprised I got it for that, but very happy. It's actual the only current bag that I wanted. The purple might be a bit bold for me, but I'm hoping I can pull it off. Before I had passed on these because I thought they were much bigger, but I saw it in a youtube video and all the sudden saw it in a different light.

Yes it's small, but it's wide, so it still holds a lot. My sister picked it out as one of the bags she likes so I'll try to get it again today. I think there are 4 or 5 out now, well 3 or 4 now that you shipped! Wish me luck with the others! lol

Well I hope you can get one for your sister than! I did see how wide it was! I like that it's still roomy enough to fit a lot of things, but not a huge bag.

 

[teegardenbr]

Anyone want to trade something for Truth Art Beauty Pomegranate & Rosehip Eye Balm $50??

I want some smaller items to trade with! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I just got my appendix out, so sitting here on this site is one of the few things I can do. (Plus it is rather addicting!) I hope you girls don't mind me joining in to the convo; you all seem like people I'd like. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

There was no point holding on to it or even keeping it if it was going to collect dust in my purse chest (yes I have a chest). I'd much rather it get the love it deserves.

AWWW you're so sweet /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm the same as you, I typically carry enormous fits-everything-except-the-kitchen-sink bags but prefer clutches for dinners, clubs and bars lol. The earrings will look gorgeous on you!

 

[javagirl87]

These betsey double heart earrings are not trading very well hmmm which is okay because I like them. I was hoping to trade up though! My other items have pretty much just been stagnating the last 2 days...but that's mostly because i'm not letting go of the moon or the coin necklace...or the leaf bangles

 

[HelloLeilani]

Donna, there's a purple Nica bag offer on my clutch, so you can always try for that clutch to in order to work your way to the Nica.

I put in offers for that cute Deux Lux clutch but I don't know why I did it at this point, and may cancel my offers. lol. The BCBG clutch is way more practical and would actually be a good buy for me, and something I'd use regularly. It can double as a wallet. I want to use it when I go places like Las Vegas, where I carry a huge bag part of the time, and a tiny clutch the other part of the time. During trips like that I'd use the clutch in my bag as a wallet, and then when I need to go out to a show or something, throw a few makeup items and my phone in the zippered part and go.

Really? They're so cute, you'd think they would trade well.

 

[javagirl87]

I have 2 offers for clutches (the rope and inca ones) for my moon necklace and this offer:



I probably would have taken the offer if that salve was replaced by jewelry...boo.

 

[HelloLeilani]

I'm so obsessed with all of the nail wraps, I can't decide which ones I like the most so I keep trading around. LOL. I like them all for different reasons and outfits. HAHAHAHA. I wish the pink leopard one would show back up in the gallery and make my decision easier.

ahh I know! I wish they would trade up to something else...did you have them at some point before? I know you had a string of betsey upgrades haha.  Also does anyone know what color these actually are? i've seen two versions online (a red/blue and a light light pink and black)...this could be either one knowing LBB
