Legend of Zelda Collectibles


I had an ebay gift card and I was just simply looking for things to buy. I got the heart piece necklace for $3.51 from this seller. The item comes in either red or blue. I chose red. The golden harp necklace I got for $3.99 from this seller. Both items are quite good quality for their price. Obviously not real gold or any type of real gem however it is still quite good quality. Just more things to add to my Legend of Zelda collection. I'm thinking of buying an amiibo too... probably of Link.

Also, Hyrule Warriors is so much fun. I know it's a huge deviation from the usual Zelda games but going through the stages is quite easy and it's fun to play with a second player. My brother plays usually plays as Link or young Link. We bought the whole DLC package. My favorite is Twili Midna. Seriously, I didn't expect to like this game as much as I do. So, give it a chance if you can.

The One Ring



I had been given an ebay gift card so I went a bit all out seeing as how ebay has so many cheap things that I want. I bought this little collectible for $1.50 from this seller. Shipping was very quick and the item was good quality. The ring came with the chain as well. Just something to add to my Lord of the Rings collection.

Summer Fashion : Flower Crowns


A friend of mine bought this one flower crown from Urban Outfitters and I had been so envious of it ever since. However, I couldn't quite justify to myself paying that much money for a flower crown. Also, I wanted something a bit more plain and neutral than hers. I wanted something all white and something all black. As usual, I looked to ebay.


This white one has become my favorite just because it looks so bright in pictures against my black hair. It is a white rose design. I bought it for $3.64 with free shipping from this seller. The quality is really nice and I would definitely recommend buying this if you want a plain white flower crown. After all, white pretty much goes with everything.


I wanted an even simpler and different type of flower crown when I purchased this. It cost $1.29 and was purchased from this seller. The crown itself is very bendable and you can also turn the flowers to whichever way. The long vine piece is simple wrapped around the crown and can be taken off if desired. It's such a pretty simple crown and not too heavy so it doesn't weigh down your hair or make it flat.




Oddly enough, the selection for pure black flower crowns and headbands are much smaller and thus the prices are much higher than when searching for a white flower crown or headband. I originally only bought the black roses headband. The seller then messaged me saying the shop was closing and thus sent me three other headbands for free. Essentially, I got all four of these headbands for a total of only $8.99. Now, let me tell you, these headbands are huge and extremely ornate, a bit heavy as well, but they are gorgeous. I wish that seller the best of luck for future endeavors because these headbands are awesome.

Tulle tutus


The whole tulle skirt thing has really become popular. For me, I wanted something that gave me a lot of volume and something that would actually fit my waist. I prefer things a bit loose so I want the circumference of the skirt to be at least 36 inches. For sizes like that, I looked to etsy. I got these skirts from the etsy shop McClureHandmade, which offers a variety of tulle tutus in different sizes and colors. I chose the length Vogue 14" and the size XL that is able to fit a 38 inch waist. I wanted it loose so I could wear sweaters beneath it.





She really meant it when she said these skirts are voluminous. They are certainly far from lacking in that department. The waist band is very stretchy and true to the sizing written in the description. The tulle is very good quality and the skirt itself is quite thick with all the tulle. The two skirts were $32 each. Shipping was $6.98 and there was an added $4.26 sales tax. Therefore the total purchase price was $75.24. It shipped quickly and the box it came in was a lot larger than I expected it to be. They arrived bundled and wrapped with a long piece of tulle tied around it. I've kept it that way for storage as well since that seems to be the best way to store them. The skirts are great quality and I would recommend buying from this shop if you are looking for a very voluminous tutu.

Summer pieces - Target Haul

If you knew me, you would know how much I shop at Target. I mean really, the deals I get at Target are the best. I did a bit of a shopping spree there for some fun summer items.



This is my first time buying pants like these. It's a new style I'm trying and it's great for summer days that I don't feel like shaving. The material is so thin that I don't get too hot on a humid Virginia day. These pants were only $6.88 each!



I really love these skirts. They are a bit of a thicker material but they hold up their shape really well. I was curious as to what they were made off and they are mostly polyester but also have some rubber which might be how it keeps the voluminous shape. These skirts were also $6.88 each.



Lastly I got these two plain tops for $4.48 each. They fit me really well and are light and flowy and great for casual outfits. However, if you have crazy hair that likes to knot like mine, the tops do have a button in the back that often gets caught in my hair. Warning given.
