So I returned to Aldo to see if my purse was fixed and although they did fix the part that was broken the purse came back with some weird dirtiness on it. I eventually was able to get the manager to let me exchange the bag for another one. Which is why I picked this large tote. Its so pretty especially with that big bow and I love the gold chain accent. It looked way better outside the store than inside the store. This bag is way better than the other Aldo bag because it allows you to carry a lot of items inside. Also it comes with a zipper that doesn't open up unlike the magnet feature the Cyphert bag has. It is also a lot more comfortable than the Cyphert bag because it rests on your shoulder opposed to your arm and does not way down your arms. I also love how light it is. I thought it was going to be heavier. It's just a really pretty spring tote that matches with anything.

I bought this watch not so long ago. It is so sleek and professional looking. Although it looks more casual than the black.The metal part is a bit dull. It is definitely a practical stylish watch for everyday use. There isn't too much extra to it and that is what I like. It is very simply designed but the large metal part makes it look very professional and well put together. There is no second hand so its difficult to know if it is working or not. But trust me it works. Also its a bit strange how the numbers are placed on the watch it only gives you three numbers and you pretty much to guess the rest. If you are the type of person who needs to see all the numbers and the second hand to be able to use a watch this is not the watch for you. The black one is better if you would like metal part to be shinier. Although the shiny metal part does get scratched up easier if it is better sleek and smooth like that of the black version of this watch. Been using it for a few months and no problems. It is water- resistant but not water proof. It can only handle low amounts of moisture for example rain drops, water when you wash your hands. But this is not a watch you keep on when you take a shower or to go for a dive in the pool, beach, lake, river, or stream.
A truly practical choice, this structured satchel is also a superb fashion add-on for your jeans, skirts and dresses. Short flap closure with metal hardware and tassel detail. Optional cross-body strap.

Aldo repairs bags for you if they break or tear as long as you still have the receipt
I just recently bought this bag from Aldo and I fell in love with it because it is very classy. It is perfect for work or any other occasion. It is also a nice medium size not too big or large and bulky. What I love about it is the shape unlike many of the slouchy/boho looks that are popular at the moment this has more of a vintage feel to it. CLASSIC VINTAGE. I bought the two - tone black and bone colored one but it is no longer in stores near me or on the website so I picked the bag that looks the closest to it and show it to you here. The only difference is the flap is black instead of bone colored. Although at first sight it looks really slim it is actually quite spacious. The bad part is that although it is spacious it is not meant to handle alot of weight therefore it is more for looks than practicality as the description states. The handles started breaking where they connect to the gold metal hooks and I had to take it back to the store for a refund. Good thing they said they would repair the damage for FREE. Therefore this is not a bag you can carry many things around town with even though it does look spacious. I don't think these bags are well made but it could have just been mine. I might have had bad luck although Aldo manager did say he would send it to be repaired. Reparation should only take 4 days he said. Lastly the bag does not have a zipper therefore the only way to close it is to latch it onto the magnet. Which is not good if you are carrying things that are kind of heavy because the magnet is not very secure. The handbag comes with a strap but it is not adjustable to your body and it is super long. Definitely, not for the shorties out here. Also it looks better as a handbag then a crossbody bag due to the shape of the bag. As a crossbody bag it looks off. Also the strap is not sturdy enough. The color bone and other lighter colors get dirty easily especially if you wear darker colors that will rub off on the material. Aldo sells a liquid that cleans this mishap, although it is not very good for synthetic material. It pops open if you are walking, or running down the street. I wish this bag were made out of leather instead of synthetic material because it would not be so stiff. I'm always rushing from place to place and need a sturdy, classic, spacious, stylish, professional bag. This bag is not for practical everyday use as it claims, it makes and outfit look better and is better for style.
Would I buy it again knowing what I know now? Probably not, and if I did I would just keep it as a cute bag I use to hangout and look cute not something you can use everyday for work.
Best if you want to: Cleanse your skin with a moisturizing, vegetable-based soap that has a bright citrus scent to refresh and uplift the senses. Best for:normal skin How it works:
Satsuma essential oil moisturizes skin and provides a natural citrus fragrance.
Glycerin is a water soluble moisturizer that enriches foam and lather.
The body shops Satsuma is amazingly fragrant. I wonder if it would be good as a candle. Anyways apart from the great smell it is better to get the The Body Shop's hard soaps than the liquid soaps because they last longer and have a longer lifetime. I totally love this soap smell I might just get another when on sale and burn it as a candle. It leaves my skin squeaky clean and I love that. Also removes make-up very well.
The pros
smells great
can be used for longer time than the liquid soaps.
comes in plastic wrapper opposed to cardboard box
Leaves the skin super clean and oil free
Creates a nice lather
The cons
the smell does not stay on the body
not very moisturizing
kind of small compared to drugstore brand soap bars
