Shop and Tell #4 (Feat. Esprit, Winners, Sephora & Shoppers)

It's payday!
I went back to Esprit to check out more sales since they're closing all their North American stores.  Boo!! I really love their jackets and I buy one practically every winter season.  I'm so bummed to see them gone.  Anyhoo.. everything was still 70% off and I was hoping that they would still have their leather jackets but it looked like they were moving all their merchandise to Europe or Asia because they had a very limited selection now as opposed to when I was there last Sunday.  So I picked up 2 pairs of jeans, a striped blazer (with elbow patches) and a touque.  All for a grand total of $83+.

Also went to Shoppers to check their post-Valentines candy and picked up some Belgian chocolate seashells.  Also they had this silver antler-looking jewelry holder on sale for $7.49.  Grand total was $33+ since I also bought bus tickets.

Then went to a different Winners hoping to find my Pour La Victoire flats but no dice.  On my way out, saw some velvet hangers and they were on sale for $5!  Picked up 2 sets with 18 hangers each.
 Oh yeah, also went to Sephora because I wanted to redeem the NARS VIB gift.  Made a mistake and purchased the wrong NARS e/s so ended up paying $100+ in total.  I wanted the Lhasa eyeshadow and accidentally grabbed the trio.  I did end up buying the correct e/s at The Bay.    
 These are the swatches for the Tokidoki "Til Death Do Us Part" palette ($12) and I have to say that this sucks.  The eyeshadows are not pigmented and the blush was super sparkly.  Return!
 Saw these Sephora smoky cream liners on sale for $3 each so picked up the only 2 colours there.

Also grabbed Sephora's own version of the cleansing water which I am hoping is comparable to my beloved Bioderma.  Actually, I just like Sephora's dispenser.
So happy that they still had this.  Can't wait to try the eye primer and the mini Laguna bronzer is soo cute.
Btw, this is the best swatch I can manage of NARS' Lhasa eyeshadow.
