February-March eBay blast

I know I have a problem. But hey, wouldn't it be a much bigger problem if I was paying the 100% price with taxes my country absurdly charges for the very same items?

It's almost a rainbow, it sure as hell sells unicorns and glitter. It's my WorldWideWeb treasure chest.

It's also the reason my credit card will someday jump off the window.

Because shoes.

Magic Scotch tape dispenser - Black Stiletto

I've been keeping an eye on this one since last year, but since I still had my own standard boring office tape dispenser working fine, I could find no excuse to buy it. But then my parents kidnapped my tape dispenser, and no matter how many times i bring it back to my wardrobe, it mysteriously finds his way back into their stuff. 

So I said, what the hell, I found one cheaper than most (Costed me U$ 14,00 with shipping fees). It's coming from London all the way here now. 

There are other versions available, in pink, or red mary-janes, animal-printed, blue sandals, or even some bedazzled bejeweled ones custom-made by very bored people:

This one is from Canada, and the little purse is a post-it dispenser. You can buy it here. 

There's a thousand other versions, and nto just shoe ones, they have bird-shaped, stickman shaped, and many others, just throw in "shoe tape dispenser" or "fun tape dispenser" on your search window and have fun scrolling.

Something blue

I love scarfs, and I have a LOAD of them. I'm serious, last time I counted, I had over 40 of them. The problem is 95% are made of wool, or pashmina with cashmere (try saying that out loud, very fast, 5 times), and my city has an average of 25-35 Celsius degrees (screw F

fahrenheit  I'm not gonna convert it). Whatever, It's a hot place. Last year, winter here had about 2 weeks of below 15°C and the rest wasn't cold enough to keep a jacket on all day.

So I went to this store to buy myself some shirts (I never buy, and do not recommend to buy clothes or shoes on eBay, I found out the hard way the tissues and quality are never what you expect, not to mention the fits and sizes. The only time it was successful was this medieval dress, which I should post about in the halloween this year maybe). As I'm checking out my 2 shirts out of the 20 I tried on (I hate cloth-shopping) I see this rack with beautiful light-tissue silk stamped scarfs, and It was all fine until I saw the price tags...

They wanted the equivalent of 35 dollars for a damn scarf.

My reaction?

TO EBAY, BITCHES!!!

And then i found the lovely blue+purple scarf you're looking at above, (There are other color combinations, check it out) for FIVE FREAKING DOLLARS, FREE SHIPPING.

I can only wonder, god damn it people, do you need that much money? ¬¬

Well there are plenty of scarfs under U$ 10 on eBay, go knock yourself out. 

I'll be brief on the next item since they're far more important to me than to you, but I'll still put them here for design purposes:

Mini-purse crossbody for parties

It's small enough to keep your phone, ID, money, credit card, it won't make you slap people while dancing, and it's cute as hell. Bought it cuz' my smallest bag still fits an average human head inside. Don't worry, I haven't tested.

U$ 13 + Shipping, Comes in Black, White, Pink (they call it red but it's clearly pink), Green and Light Brown. Click here to check it (I bought the black one). 

Similar bags in Brazil cost at least U$ 25.

LED Wooden alarm clock

It's been 2 weeks I've kept my laptop on for the sake of using it as an alarm clock. My cellphone no longer wakes me up, I became such a ninja on turning it off, I don't even remember disabling the alarm anymore. So because my laptop needs some sleep, I've found a new alarm clock.

I found it's design quite interesting, it's simple but cute, and it's very small. It's a 6cm³ cube, you can plug it normally to the wall, USB it to your computer or add batteries. U$ 10, free shipping, here.

You can find it in other colors, white, marble, and different shapes. You can also pick the color of the lights. I went for white lights + black wood.

TK Fine Vario Mechanichal Pencil by Faber Castell

0.3 - 0.35mm

This baby was my lost childhood. 7 years ago I brought it among my drawing stuff to the beach house. When I returned home, everything was there, except this mech. pencil.

This is the most expensive item on my purchase list this month, U$ 18,95 + Shipping. My old Pentel 0.3mm mechanichal pencil (I love this graphite for drawing because it makes very smooth sketches and very defined details), was being an old bitch. The barrel kept coming off the socket and breaking the graphite. So I decided to browse for a new one online, considering the price of brazilian drawing supplies are from double to triple price as USA or other place's prices. I accidentally found my old lost love, the TK Vario, flipped out completely and went straight for it. Should arrive in 1-2 weeks.

I've also bought 2 more items, a "Web Design For Dummies" for 5 bucks, and another mysterious item which I will dedicate a whole post about, and it's specially for the LADIES. So keep your eyes up. I'll be writing a nail art tutorial today, and tomorrow, you might just find something that will change your... *drums*

Nope, I wont tell you.

Cya all later!

Destroying eBay + Lime Crime in a single week

&

Oh my GOD Forgive me my dear sweet lovely blog for abandoning you to rotten and dust in a poor corner of the worldwide web! QQ I had so much diversions... *Hugs header*




Sooo I been making my holidays shopping and giving perhaps one too many xmas gifts to myself. Tonight I encountered a 3 hour battle against Lime Crime's Sale (Oh my god the site still won't load even to copy the link! There's probably thousand of people buying even now) for Carousel Lip Gloss Collection.

Edit Warning!

For those who are still interested in the great Sale, Doe Deere has made an announcement, tonight over 2 million people tried acessing the site, which made it crash!

Therefore Lime Crime will re-make the sale today as soon as the site is fixed and running!

Enjoy it while you can! And special thanks to Lime Crime itself for having such dedication to consumers :) We wouldn't do it any different!

Tonight I was so glad to have checked the Muse of Unicorn's blog, because gurrrrrrl thats one aMAAaaAazing (please picture that word spoke with a hig-pitched drag queen voice) colurs!

Here's my favorite, Kaleidoscope:



I love the theme of the colelction. First, because it's obvious the twisted glass looks of the bottle are based after those old carousels canes where the horses hang from. Second of all, this made Sorry'Go-Round by Poets of the Fall stuck in my head all day.

Thus, I love how, despite Doe calling herself Queen of Unicorns, you can easily twist this theme to the creepy circus-festivals epic side which I love in some games and movies. And to a fourth, I'm obsessed with purple and I have a Journey on the seek fo the perfect purple lipstick. I have a drawer crowded int hem. Perhaps I can post about this ont he weekend.

I got 100% convinced by the pure magic of Kaleidoscope after seeing a swatch made by mschaplinnn on youtube. Bless you for doing this, tonight i'll sleep to the signt of the pretty pictures of the glosses.



I bought the full Carousel collection as a self-made christmas gift, and some lipsticks I was waiting restock to buy. 3 lipsticks and 3 eyeshadows. Will make swatches when they arrive.

Here's the other colors:




Well now off with Unicorns and in with Epic eBay Assault !!

Star Wars

No I won't marry you. Stop begging. You're getting pathetic now. PLEASE STAND UP!

Kist kidding xD

Well the past 2 weeks me mom and dad have been re-watching ol'good saga, and that + a barbecue we made last weekend to celebrate vacations with my uni peeps, I went out into the wild eBay search to look for an apron.


Admit it, it's awesome. And its MINE SO GET LOST! xD
Nah, I'm not that mean. Here's the seller store for this epic apron of geekness.

Also I remembered my sympathy for R2D2, poor cute little robot he's so smart and full of tricks but they always manage to screw him up. If i was Yoda i'd wack Luke with the cane every time he hurt R2 somehow.

So I stirred it up with the fact i'm starting driving lessons on holidays and bought a cute Lego keychain of him

<3

And 3rd geek thing It's a secret because I won't show u until it arrives. BAHAHAH.


Last but not least... Medieval Scissors




Months ago there was a girl on Brazil inlove with a pair of scissors, who could not buy them because these n00b sellers out there didn't ship the damn thing to Brazil!

Today I saw an old notepad file with 'WTB' on its title so i looked it up and saw it! When I saw them the first time i messaged every freakin' ebayer with one but nobody shipped here. Til I foudn this guy. Dear Sword & Armory seller, don't put your adress in the pack because I will go up there and steal everything, your stuff is so awesome I would have to buy a 2nd apartment just for all the stuff I wanna buy from you and other stuff.

Particularly inlove with the Dragon's Breath sword he has there, but I can't buy anythign else til.. January xD Except for clothes, I need some new ones badly.



How FREAKING AWESOME IS THAT SWORD? *nosebleeds and daydreams*

It's actually not expensive, at ALL. I think i'll talk to my brother about buying it with him.



I have so much new stuff I don't know where to begin with, but I should go for now. I hope you enjoyed this post and I hope i get my own Yoda wacking my head with a cane if i stop posting here again.
