Hit and Miss Life of Ebay Shopping

This is a little bit of an impromptu post, but I feel a little rant coming on.

This weekend I am heading over to Liverpool to visit some friends and partake in a bit of Oktoberfest. We all know how cold it can get up North, so u thought I would do the sensible thing and buy a hat. Only I wanted a cool hat, one that will bring my outfit from OK to SLAY!!!!

So me being the bargain queen I am (and a little Lazy), I went over to E of the Bay and bought a nice wool blend one, which in the pictures looked edgy, on point and well on fleek!

Then it came yesterday!

It was folded in half, flat as a pancake, with a creased up brim. Me being the glass half full person I am, thought it may straighten out and look good when I put it on. HAHAHAHA yeah right!

The creases in the brim made it look like a farmers hat. There turns out to be not even a tiny bit of wool for there to be a blend and it kept popping off my head because the folds can not be put right.

I m normally pretty lucky when I buy from EBay. I buy unique shoes, clothes and also makeup items on it. There are times when it can go horribly wrong.

I normally have problems when I buy anything from China, Hong Kong and Japan as there plus sizes are just not plus size. When I buy front the U.K and the U.S I don't have issues.

This hat was from the UK so I thought it would be safe. Yeah, this is what hindsight told me!

Now I am without the Panama style hat, my outfit will be all off and just like everyone else and well I'm P.Od!

Moral of the story, if you have a specific outfit in your mind and you need one thing to tie it all together, just go to the high street and don't be lazy!!

You live and you learn!

Keep an eye for my next posts all about my Oktoberfest outfit and snatched face!!
