GUESS:
Item purchased: Delany Mini Tote (BROWN)
Reason of purchase: GIFT
I bought this bag from my friend Lina as her Birthday/Christmas Gift. I'm personally not a GUESS fan (due to bad annoying obnoxious friend who had an obsession with GUESS and loved to rub in my face how "rich" she was by buying bags all the time with her parents money -_-. However, this tote did catch my eye. The quality is good, the colour is classy and original so it can be used literally with any outfit whether its just out with friends or for a more casual night at the bar. I don't think it would be a good fit with a very "high class" outfit but if combined properly with a good outfit, it can be pulled off. It was $70 dollars plus tax so around $85 dollars which is a pretty good price for a mini tote seeing as other brands such as MK etc will sell this bag for around $150-200 and it's slightly smaller in size/shape. Overall, I was pretty pleased with the style, quality and presentation of the bag. Not to mention my friend absolutely LOVED it! Defiantly recommend it as a gift esp for Christmas which is fast approaching...
SPORT CHEK:
Items purchased: Nike Free 5.0 Runners & Nike Free 3.0 V5 Runners
Reason for purchase: I NEED RUNNING SHOES
Me and my bestie Anissa went to Sport Chek cause they're currently have a BUY ONE get the other 50% off sale which they usually do maybe 4-5 times/year. I decided to take advantage of this since I only have one main pair of underarmor running shoes and they are pretty dead (like the inside liner is falling out -_-). Since I'm joining the gym next month (Already paid for my membership WOOT), I need some new kicks. Also, Im personally in LOVE with Nike and Underarmor brands. Their shoes have always been my favourite due to the unique combination of colours and quality. I was going to buy one Nike and one Underarmor but they didn't have the colour I was looking for in my size (I have huge feet, size 11....Genetics).
1. Nike Free 3.0 V5 Runners-> Turquoise/Grey/Sliver "Tiffany Blue"
I'm officially IN LOVE with these!!! I have seen this pair ALL over Instragram used with its given nickname "Tiffany Blue Nike Shoes". The colour combination is perfect, the blue alone is a such a nice shade (Turquoise is one of my favourite shades of blue). I originally never noticed it since it was located on the VERY top shelf. Anissa had pointed it out to me when they didn't have my size in the underarmor shoe I was interested in. THANK GOD they had this in my size! This was a must buy regardless of the promotion. Price: $129.99
2. Nike Free 5.0 Runners-> Hyper Grape/Court Purple, Summit White/Hyper Turquoise
This was the last pair in 11 the store associate could find. Since its so hard to find my size, it was difficult for the sale associate to find me something I really liked. I needed a second pair to get the 50% off deal so I decided hey, lets get another pair! This was a good combination (dark purple with tiffany blue!!! C'mon WHY NOT). I was REALLY happy with this purchase. Original price: $129.99 
BATH & BODY WORKS:
Item purchased: 2 Candles, 1 Body Lotion, 1 Christmas Limited Candle HolderReason of purchase: Need candles that will last more than a week, other bought d/t promotion
Finally, I went to B&BW because I've wanted candles from them for a REALLY long time! I've seen their candles on many Youtube hauls, room decor tours etc, so I was really interested in getting some myself. I love lighting up candles as well since my Mom does it ALL the time, so I kinda got use to it. Also, it helps when Im home alone and playing video games or watching TV. So currently, they're doing a Buy 2 get 2 FREE OR Buy 3 get 3 Free! I honestly should have bought 3 and get 3 but I decided to budget myself since I have more Christmas shopping to get out of the way and just pick some more up later.
1. Cinnamon Carmel Swirl Candle: The scent is pretty nice overall. Many of the other candles either had weird combinations or just couldn't be smelled AT ALL (and I would not waste money on something I can't smell when NOT lit). The Carmel is a little stronger than the Cinnamon but the combination is very soothing to the nose and if lit complements one another.
Price: $22
2. Japanese Cherry Blossom Candle/Body Lotion: To be honest, I've had my eye on this particular lotion for a LONG time! One of my previous friends had bought me the body wash (gave it to my mom to use, so never really got to enjoy the scent) but I've wanted a lotion version to either carry around during work, or to apply after my showers to prevent dry skin. This MUST be very popular since I've wanted this for about 1-2 years ago and its STILL here. I love the scent so much that I bought both the candle and lotion (would have honestly bought the portable lotion container too). I tried the lotion today, applying small amount to my hands (around 2145pm) and now it being 0530am now, I can STILL smell the fragrance in my hands. My hands are still soft, smooth and feel moisturized compared to other lotions which the scent would fade within the hour and reapplying would be necessary. I'm VERY impressed. Price: $22/ FREE (for the lotion, originally $12.50)
3. Christmas Limited Edition Candle Holder: Finally, I decided to get at least one Candle Holder, for my lovely candles and to make my room a BIT more stylish. As you can see in the top picture, my desk is pretty small but has enough room to decorate it. Since its Christmas its a good holiday season decoration to add to my desk (which I almost never sit at, unless playing my 3DS or PS3). I just loved the design and how it holds the candle. Even when Christmas is over its still a nice candle holder esp for B&BW candles. Price: FREE (original $11.99)
Customer Service was Excellent in ALL 3 stores and I had a good shopping day! I'm really enjoying B&BW products so I may pass by there tomorrow to get more...well see =D. Till next time
