A mini-haul

I was hunting for some bargains here in Trinidad. I found nothing drop dead spectacular. Once I took the Bds$ to TT$ exchange rate into consideration, some things were not necessarily a bargain. The quality, style and merchandise are about the same for the items I like to buy at home in Barbados. So, I opted not to make purchases.

What I got:
I am not a platform shoe lover but I decided to go out of my zone and just try something different. They are very simple style-wise, just over US$20 from a Payless here in Trinidad. The bangle I bought is from Wonderful World. This store reminds me of Claire's, actually. I had been looking for a while for a red and black combo so I snapped this up for around US$7.

  2. The bangle is nice indeed. The shoes now have to be broken in though, but that's what summer is for :o)

  4. Thanks. But the next time I do peep toe I will remember to do one with a wider opening, these pinch my toes just a bit. The larger size was way too big, they fell off my feet, so I had to get the W width which is something that usually does not happen. So, they need to be broken in. As with most shoes.

  6. Considering the exchange rate (3:1), buying somethings made no sense. Seeing this was my first year, if I do sign on next year, I will know where to go and how to move ;o)
