After work, I got a lift over to the mall to wait for the bus, but because I'm starting to hate my job, I decided to go inside and snatch a few applications. I can never, I repeat, NEVER, pass by a Claire's/ICING without snatching handfuls of cute shit.

Anyway, this is all I could stuff into my grubby little fists in five minutes before I had to catch the bus.

They have TONS of Alice stuff (called "Alice in Fashionland"), including two AWESOME hats (very well made, I might add), and because Easter's coming up, they also had a slew of really adorable rabbit ears. I almost picked up a pink pair with bows, then saw a white pair with a crown, then another pair with a mini-hat...So many to choose from!!!

I was also pleasantly surprised by the amount of steampunk-friendly jewelry as well.

So here we go! Here's the first thing I picked up:

Alice charm toggle bracelet, it also had matching lavalieres and earrings to go with this.

Do you have any idea how long I've wanted a crown ring?? I will NEVAR take it off! There was also a matching earring set of this in the Alice section.

Cuppycake earrings!

A necklace I'll be using to doll up my Steampunk Lolita outfit

My only complaint is that the Roman numeral for "4" is wrong--how do they get this wrong on so many clocks?! IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE IV PPL

Had to get one of these, seeing as everyone's been wearing birdcage necklaces a lot.

And I love that the two chains are Figaro style instead of the links being all the same size. <3

Cameo and crown, what more could I want?

I'm going to turn this into a necklace--it's too beautiful to get all dirty and dinged up on my keyring. Lovely pink faux-pearl loose in the center.

And a Piano key bangle--perfect for the twelve million outfits I have with music notes and piano keys on 'em.

What are you still reading this for?! GO TO THE MALL RIGHT NOW AND GET YOU SOME STUFF! http://www.claires.com/aliceinfashion-accessories-jewelry.asp

I'm going to take some clear nail polish and go over everything that has a gemstone in it (my ring, the keychain, "clocket" necklace because I feel it'll help prevent the stones from falling out. Is my weird ritual actually helping or won't it matter?
