Hey Baby! You Got Hellascrewed!
So - I recently heard about this new Harajuku Lovers perfume line. It somehow has to do with Gwen Stefani and her bizarre little posse of Japanese chicks that follow her around. I really don't get that at all.
Anyhoo - Gwen released this set of perfumes. I think I saw it in an email from Sephora (a store which I am slowly but surely about to become a slave to). So I stopped by Sephora the same afternoon I got my hair cut to sniff them. And there was one I really liked that I thought Chad would like too. I'm really into wearing things that he likes. But - I usually don't buy perfume at the drop of a hat.
Well last night my bro and sis and brother-in-law and stepbrother and sister-in-law went out to dinner and to hang out at this new, very cool outdoor shopping plaza called Perkins Rowe. We had an hour wait for California Pizza Kitchen and so we decided to shop across the street at Urban Outfitters, a store so full of itself it's not even funny. But cool nonetheless. (I'm really just bitter because I'm no longer 24.)
And lo and behold they had the Harajuku Lovers perfume. What a coincidence. So I sniffed some more. And spritzed the one on me that I liked the best - the one I thought Chad would like because of its coconuttiness. The smaller size was only $25.
Hmmm - $25. Not too bad. The box looked like it contained a decent sized bottle.
Behold -
Hmmm - so I'm imagining that the bottle will probably look something like this (and let me also preface by saying that the tester bottle looked a lot like this - only much bigger):
Imagine my surprise when I take the plastic wrap off of the box, open it at the table at CPK and pull this out.
Ummm . . .
Looks like I payed for a plastic doll representation of Gwen Stefani standing on an inch of perfume.
A side view:
Hey jackass - next time read the fine print that says .33 fl. oz on the very front of the box.
It does smell really, really good though. And Chad loves it.
Sadly it may only last the week.
Damn that Gwen Stefani . . .

I've been searching for a new perfume, maybe I'll check this out!
lol. thats hilarious! (and sad i guess). Your nails look great! g2
I'm sorry but I'm trying not to laugh also! That's hilarious. You mean I'm too old to shop at Urban Outfitters?!?! I finally found a place to buy jeans that fit me and now I'm too old! Sheesh!
My daughter and her friends (who are 17-18 yrs old) found these at Belk this weekend and they loved them. Their favorite was "G". There is a 1 ounce bottle for $45.00, but no cute figure on the top.
