If you have been wondering where you can get bracelets like the ones Bella wears in Twilight and New Moon (you can kind of see them in this fresh poster from the New Moon movie), have no fear. I’m here to help.

There’s a great little online store called Wonderstore (read all about them here) that sells several versions of each of the bracelets Bella wears, so it’s easy to pick one that suits you the best. Plus, they are all under 10 bucks, so compared to other places I’ve seen them, it’s a steal!

Bella mainly wears two bracelets throughout the film. One is the Saint Jude bracelet, which is extremely popular since it’s the most visible of the two.

This one from Wonderstore is my favorite, and it’s available there for just $5.99. This bracelet is a great item for the more subtle fan who isn’t the kind of person who wears their Team Edward (or Team Jacob, whatever) shirt out in public.

The next bracelet is one Bella wears along with her St. Jude bracelet, but it’s harder to find a good version of this one since it’s harder to see during the film.

This one, called the Evil Eye bracelet is the one I like, and again it’s at the right price for 4.99.

If you don’t like the two I picked, please check out rest of their selection here and let me know what you think!

I’ve been on an online shopping kick lately. Well, not really shopping, since I don’t have money to buy anything, but I’ve been looking around for things I like so I can have at least some sort of Christmas list when my mom needs ideas for what to get for me this year.

Since we plan on taking a trip to Forks sometime in the future, I’ve decided I want a pair of Converse to wear while I’m there, since that’s what Kristen as Bella wears in the movie (I know, I’m a loser). I googled for the type of shoe so that I could add them to my wishlist, and inadvertently stumbled on a freakin’ goldmine.

I found this website called Cool Spotters, where you can find pretty much anything your favorite stars or favorite movie characters wear or decorate their rooms with, or whatever. Needless to say, I spent about 3 hours on that website, looking at the profiles for Rob, Kristen, and their characters.

So, this is a list of the things that I personally want the most from the Twilight/New Moon set and the things that Rob and Kristen personally own.

1) Bella’s Comforter

I had been mildly interested in buying this before, when I first saw it in Twilight. The picture above (from the amazing LA Times photoshoot I talked about last week) really reenergized my interest in it and I’ve been searching the internet like crazy for this, and it seems everyone else has too.

Where to get it: E-Bay is pretty much your only bet at finding this now, and the lowest price I saw listed was about 300 bucks. That’s more than a little crazo, since it used to be sold at Target for a grand total of $60.00.

2) Bella’s table mirror

Can you tell I really love this photo shoot? I have a feeling this is going to be one of my favorite parts of the movie. It’s just so *sigh* wistfully romantic looking. Keeping with that theme, they have the little mirror from Twilight in Bella’s room for New Moon again. I really love table mirrors like this, I think it’s really sweet looking, and of course the lust in my heart was ignited when I noticed this in the picture above (when I could tear my eyes away from Robward’s ass, that is).

Where to get it: You can purchase the mirror here, for the low LOW price of $130.00. I really REALLY want this, but I know no one in my life will ever pay over a hundred bucks for a mirror. I might have to just deal with getting this one from Ikea instead.

3) Bella’s Mittens

Source

Bella can be seen wearing these all throughout Twilight, and they look extremely comfy and warm enough to protect her hands from the cold and wet Forks weather. Even though it doesn’t really get all that cold here in Texas during the winter, I still want these.

Where to get them: Yes, there is a waiting list for these mittens. You can buy them from the original designer Ruth Cross here. They are $79.00.

4) Bella’s Shoes

The link above will take you to the Cool Spotters page of all Bella’s shoes they’ve figured out so far, but these next two are my favorites since they are ones I can wear in everyday life.

Nike Womens Cortez Shoes in Black and White (shown above) Bella wears these shoes in New Moon for at least the movie date with Jessica scene. I like these because they are simple and easy to get (not so expensive, like some of the other things I like from the set)

Where to get them: Order them from Journeys here. They are $54.99.

Converse Jack Purcell Shoes These shoes were worn by Bella on the most romantical prom date with Edward Cullen. She only wore once since her other leg was in a cast, but it was still cute. Click the link to see screenshots from the prom.

Where to get them: Order them from the Converse website here. They are $50.00.

Now that we’ve gone over Kristen/Bella’s wardrobe (to see all entries under thier names, click here then click on the face of who you want to read about), let’s move on to Rob. Yes, it’s true. I not only lust after his body, I also want a few of his belongings as well.

1) Rob’s Louisiana Swamp Tour Hat

The instant I saw this picture, I knew I HAD to have this hat. I’m a Cajun from Louisiana, so I would want this from that alone, but the fact that this beautiful British boy has worn this on his perfect god-like hair only makes me want it more.

Where to get it: I actually have no idea how he got this. This hat is only avaliable in the gift shop of the actual place where they give swamp tours in New Orleans, Louisiana (website here). I’m guessing he found this in a thrift store somewhere since I can’t actually picture him taking a real swamp tour. I’m going to guess this hat costs somewhere between $5.00 and $20.00 bucks, depending on the gift/thrift store prices.

2) The infamous Stoli Vodka shirt

If you aren’t aware of the saga that is Rob’s Stoli shirt, please go here, here, and here to educate yourself and join in the Stoli Watch 2009.

Where to get it: The Stoli shirt in Russian is no longer avaliable. You can order the English version from their website here.

3) The Edward Cullen jacket

You all know this jacket. This jacket has made many appearances in the sex dreams you had after seeing Robward in Twilight for the first time. I know, because I had them too. I’m convinced this is the only jacket in the world (and Robward is the only person) that can have a popped collar. Everyone else, don’t even try. You just look extra E-baggy:

Where to get it: A quick google search told me this jacket is a G-Star brand, and the closest thing to Edward’s jacket can be ordered here. It’s $260.00. And the guy on the website modeling it? Total E-Bag.

4) Rob’s favorite Nikes

Are these welded to the man’s feet or something? Rob hardly ever takes these off. I was thinking he was going to actually wear the damn things to the Oscars. I was puzzled by the constant wearing of the same pair of shoes all the time at first, but now I just love it.

Where to get them: Cool Spotters tells me these are called Nike Air Tiempo Rival Premium ID Mens Soccer Shoes. Just highlight that and copy into google, and you will be taken to Nike’s website, where you can customize the look of these on their site before you purchase them. The prices will vary.

5) THE Ray-Bans

Source

Rob wears these glasses literally ALL the time and everywhere. He’s worn them on the Twilight set (you know the scene), out and about while picking up some beer, the Remember Me set, and more (click here to see all the photos).

Where to get them: The specific name of these Ray-Bans is Ray-Ban Wayfarer Sunglasses. You can google them to find varying prices. One link I found here has these for $60.00.

All of Rob’s stuff is here. With that link, you have all the info you need in order to dress your man like Edward Cullen, Tyler Roth or just regular Rob.

To make things easier for you:

Rob’s page here

Kristen’s page here

Edward’s page here

Bella’s page here

AND, even though I didn’t get a chance to get around to him this time…

Taylor’s page here

and Jacob’d page here.

So, what do you think? Is there anything that the cast/characters have that you are just dying to own?

I broke down and bought this yesterday when I saw there was only one copy left at Wal Mart. After carefully (like I was doing brain surgery) tearing all seven posters out, I settled in and got comfortable to look through all these never-before-seen pictures. Here a few of my favorites and my thoughts on them.

All these pictures are courtesy of Robsessed.

Ok, so this is like the third page in and already we are getting to the good stuff. Look at how she’s looking at him. I understand, K-Stew. I wouldn’t be able to keep my eyes off him either.

Taylor, I can see your underwear. I’m thrilled uncomfortable with that.

Pure perfection. This has got to be one of my most favorite pictures ever.

Again with the sexy smoldering looks at each other! And I just love Kristen’s makeup in this photo. She’s beautiful. Also, great (a little random) quote from Rob.

Who is that lucky bitch in the slutty red dress?

Ok so THIS is my most favorite picture ever. When I was standing in Wal Mart flipping through the pages and trying to talk myself out of buying it, I came to this page and nearly licked the magazine. In Public. In front of witnessess. That’s when I knew I had to take it home. I wish to God that they had made this picture into a poster. (Fingers crossed that someone at Summit already has the idea for a shirtless Rob poster for the New Moon merch we will be seeing soon).

This is a scan of all the posters in the issue, all of which are hanging up the apartment now. I love how 6 of the 7 have Rob in them.

To see the rest of the pictures, follow the link. Or just go buy the magazine yourself. You know you want it.

The special Twilight edition of US Weekly is finally out today. MTV has an article with more details on what you can find inside, including 7 pull-out posters!

If you buy the mag at a Krogers store, you get a free sample of the new Lip Venom V lip plumper from DuWop cosmetics, which has been remarketed to tie in to the Twilight saga. The vial looks like his has blood in the bottom. I love it!

I only have 50 bucks to last me until Jeremy gets back from NYC on Wednesday. Should I go get this? It’s 10 bucks, so there would go 1/5 of my money. I’m a little torn on the issue because I want two copies of this, one for use and one for saving.

Twilight merch or food? It’s a difficult decision.

Also, please no emails or comments signifying your concern for me after seeing all the stuff I’ve been hoarding. I know, ok? I know I’m a total weirdo. I need Twilight rehab, but if there even was such a thing, I wouldn’t go. If loving Twilight so much is wrong, I don’t want to be right! (Sorry if some of these are blurry, I have a crap camera). This is one of the three Twilight posters in our living room. The things hanging down from the ends are the Twilight dog tag necklaces from Wal Mart that I practically went through hell and back to try to get. Jessie and I are planning on wearing these to the midnight showing of New Moon in November. Jeremy doesn’t think so now, but he will be wearing one too.

Poster number 2 in the living room

This is the third poster we have, incidentally the first one we bought. It’s sharing the wall with one of Jeremy’s Beatles posters. See? We can live together in *singing* haarmonnyyyy! Funny story, my mom came over not too long ago and scoffed, “What are all these Beatles posters doing in here?” like our entire apartment should be just Twilight. Heaven forbid I actually allow Jeremy to display his things in our apartment. Oh, my mom. She’s so silly.

Next, we move into our closet sized kitchen. Twilight even managed to find it’s way in here too. I was at another Wal Mart in our area (not the one in our town, nothing Twilight related in that hell hole) and saw these in the dollar aisle. Of course I had to get all three. They’re collectibles! I haven’t even opened them to try the candy inside. I’m curious to see if the hearts are actually sparkly.

Then there is the refrigerator. As soon as I saw the magnet set at Hot Topic, I had to have it. I still think that was a cute idea, although they need to work on the quality. I nearly tore that Twilight text logo to pieces trying to remove it from the packaging. Hey, wait? What is Edward looking at with such smoldering, sexy intensity? Who is that hot beautiful beotch that Edward can’t take his eyes off of? Oh, yeah. That’s me! (and that’s one of my senior portraits. I don’t usually pose for pictures like that, in case you were wondering) I think you’re pretty hot too, Edward. In fact…I-

Sorry, I got carried away. In a way, having Edward on my fridge is a good thing. I go in to superfluously snack and Edward is there to distract me. Edward Cullen is my diet plan!

Ok, moving on. Lets head down the hall. We used to just have that Monet print. Classy and cultured, right? Well, it was missing some Twilight, so I took care of that. Now it’s perfect.

On to the bedroom. This is where the magic happens (unneccesary MTV Cribs refrence!) Jeremy was even so gracious to even allow Twilight to permeate here too. Super sweet (and smart) of him. This is my favorite Twilight item in the house. It’s the giant 5 ft (that’s 10 inches taller than me!) Edward Cullen poster. This is only available at certain Blockbuster stores, and luckily I found it at our local store on first try. I absolutely adore it. Jeremy even helped me hang it up! It fits in with the bedroom since our decorating “theme” in there is black and white. Plus, I was already picturing him in there enough (oh snap!), so I’m glad we made that happen.

This is my bedside table. That GQ cover is gorgeous and I have the interview Rob did behind the cover in that frame too. The funky looking CD is the Twilight movie score soundtrack (thanks Jessie!) and under it is the Twilight:Director’s Notebook (again, thanks Jessie!). The prints on the wall are pencil drawings of New Orleans (my family is Cajun) except for the eye drawing. I drew that in high school art class.

I really need to change my flowers, huh? I’m trying to keep up with that. Now, lets step outside to head downstairs. On the way to the front door, this is what we see every day. Those are the party favors I got during the Twilight DVD release party at Hot Topic in March. I promise, a post with videos and pictures from that night is coming soon. I’m having issues uploading the videos to you tube (i.e, I can’t do it), but stay tuned because that post is coming very soon.

Also, ignore the bratty message Jeremy scrawled on our message board before he left. He lashes out any way he can, poor guy.

On to Jeremy’s truck, parked downstairs. This is the full proof of his love for me, that all the world gets to see as we drive around. That’s right. We represent every where we freakin’ go. Apparently though, Jeremy has caught some flack for these stickers at his job. When the Team Edward one was pretty new, his boss came in to the office and said, “You know what Jeremy? Team Jacob. Team. Jacob.” Jeremy was a little confused until he remembered. It’s a running joke among his coworkers, which I think Jeremy is pretty cool about. Can I just say again that I feel so lucky to have someone who loves me so much?

Then, we have all the little things that migrate around the apartment as I use and move them. These are the things I use frequently. First, because it’s the most important, the very laptop I’m typing on now. It’s a Dell Mini 9, and it’s so tiny I can take it anywhere. I even use this thing in the bathtub (I’m talented that way). I haven’t had this thing very long, but I feel naked without it. It keeps me connected to the Twilight fandom (and my other real life family and friends too, ya know) The stickers came from Hot Topic and so did the Twilight band-aids. Jessie bought the band-aids and let me have a few for decoration. I owe her a lot (Love you girl!)

Here is my laptop background image, which I think you’ll find as sexy as I do. In case you can’t read the print at the bottom, it says, “Hey girl, are you thinking of me when you’re with him?” It’s one of the many examples of Rob Porn, which is featured at Letters to Rob and many other places on my blog roll. I don’t remember the exact place where I got this one from, but if you let me know I will credit you.

These are my keys. They are very loud. I can’t sneak up on anyone with these. The menacing black thing on my key chain is the holder from my mace. Jump back, pervs. I’m armed. As I was taking that picture, Kitty came over to investigate.

My books and movies are just waiting around to be read/watched again. I have two copies of the movie. One from the Hot Topic party, and the other from Target so I could have that extra disc of goodies. When Jeremy and I finally join the rest of civilization and get an HD TV, we will get another copy of Twilight in Blu Ray. I’m working on building my book collection up again. It’s smart to have a set for personal use, and another for loaning to friends who haven’t been indoctrinated yet. Finally, the last thing for this post is someone the regular readers have been introduced to before. In a horrible accident, I ended up with Jessie’s Mini Edward along with mine, and they’ve been making friends until I can get him back to her.

Yeah, they’re besties.

Y’all, this isn’t even all my Twilight shiz. I didn’t even take pictures of all my T shirts or bags or buttons. This post will be continued. Give me a chance to build up my arsenal. I will certainly be adding to my collection in the next few months, especially since I’ve been doing lots of browsing on Etsy and E Bay.

Let us know in the comments, what is your favorite piece of Twilight merch? Anything you’re lusting after hardcore? Are you waiting on something special to hit stores?

According to a press release from the publisher, the Breaking Dawn Special Edition, on stands Aug. 4, will include a DVD of the Breaking Dawn concert series and interviews with Meyer. Those who pick up the hardcover book can also expect a poster and reproduction of handwritten lyrics for

Oh good. I see I have your attention. This picture of Rob gets me every time too.

I got your attention because I need y’all to answer a quick question. Jeremy and I were looking at all the super-awesome Twilight stuff on Etsy.com (did I mention what an awesome boyfriend he is? Thank God he actually particiaptes in all this with me, or we would both go crazy), and he had the idea of us buying some of the awesome stuff from some of the vendors over there and then giving it away as prizes in contests on this blog. I was thinking we could have like, “Caption This” contests or maybe trivia, just stuff like that.

I told him that might not work, because even though we get a good number of hits every day, we hardly ever get comments. So I wanted to ask all of you if you would consider participating in a contest if we decide to do one.

And you know what? I’m going to make it easier for you. I’m not even going to make you just answer me in the comments (although please feel free to do so, we love comments here!), I’m going to put a poll on this post so we can find out what you think that way if you don’t want to leave a comment.

Also, if you have any suggestions for what type of merchandise you would like to compete for, or some cool contest ideas, please feel free to let us know in the comments or our email addresses, which are found in our wordpress profiles.

Happy voting!

Look at that picture. Rob knows what’s up.

When I was at Wal Mart last night with Jeremy picking up a few things, I had to go over to the “Twilight section” and see if they finally got some stuff in. I’m not going to be picky here, I just want some fraking buttons, maybe a key chain or two (or five). We headed over there, me a little warily. I wasn’t sure what we would find, considering what had happened last time.

There was nothing. Not even a shelf of unnecessary Doritos. There was a big empty spot where that shelf had been, and the wall was all filled up with the fug purses from last time. Even the big display signs were gone.

I didn’t panic. I stayed calm and told myself they were probably just moving the display. While Jeremy went and stood in line for the check out, I asked at Customer Service to see of they were moving the display to another part of the store. The woman working the counter told me, “Go to the fitting room, and they will show you where it is.”

I walked over to the fitting room, which is incidentally where the stuff HAD been. I suppose they thought I was stupid and needed to be lead the entire 5 feet there by an associate.

Two employees, girls about my age, were standing in the big empty spot and they looked as confused as I was. One of them said, “I just got here. I had no idea they were moving it!” She went to ask the girl in jewelery (really, I had been lead all over the whole store at this point) and she told us, “Yeah, that’s over, and they aren’t getting any more. That’s all that’s left.” and she pointed to one bracelet and one pack of buttons.

So. The moral of the story is go to your Wal Mart ASAP and buy what you want, because according to the employees at mine, they are not going to be carrying that stuff much longer. I think this is pretty stupid of them personally. I guess they don’t want to make more money or something. But all you lucky beotches go and buy your buttons and bags and key chains so I can live vicariously through y’all.

Looks like they will be seeing me around at Hot Topic again.

Jeremy and I do all our grocery shopping there, and we go there A LOT. I was looking forward at having access to new (and cheap!) Twilight stuff like the buttons and bags.

I called Wal Mart several times a week trying to find out when the launch of their “Twilight store” would be. I’m sure the employees hated me. I kind of hated them back. No one would ever give me a straight answer. Sometimes I heard, “Come tomorrow.”. Other times I heard, “Um..I’m not sure…”, like they had no idea what Twilight even was, but they knew about the rabid fangirls, and they were trying to give me an answer that would keep me calm.

Finally, the week it launched, Jessie and I went to her Wal Mart and bought a whole bunch of buttons, tees and bags. I was pretty pleased with the selection, and the prices too (6 buttons for 5 bucks, when 1 button costs 2.99 at Hot Topic!). When I got back home, I saw that my Wal Mart had pretty much the same merchandise and I looked forward to going with Jeremy so we could look at all of it together (plus so he could buy me stuff too).

So that brings us to tonight. Jeremy is gone, in New York City again for a big work project (blah), so after I got out of class tonight, I decided to go to Wal Mart and buy myself some Twilight buttons or something to cheer myself up.

You would not believe what I encountered there if you didn’t have photographic proof, so I took pictures. Excuse the crappy cell phone camera quality.

This is what I saw first, on the wall for the T shirts.

Ok, that’s fine. Four shirts to choose from. That’s cool. Usually the buttons are on display right next to the shirts, but they weren’t there. A bunch of fug purses were instead. Ok, maybe the buttons were moved. I turned around to look for them.

Umm, ok. No buttons, only one thing Twilight related on the entire shelf, and some boxes shoved in the way.

And this was on the shelf they have for the books and the movie. Instead, as you can see, there are Doritos, which have nothing to do with Twilight whatsoever.

It didn’t get better. The shirts and that one bag were the only Twilight related things in the FUCKING TWILIGHT SECTION. No buttons, no books, no posters, no keychains, NOTHING.

Of course, I shouldn’t have been surprised. When I turned away from the so called “Twilight section” and walked away, I noticed there was SHIT on the floor. Like, actual shit. It looked like someone had tracked it in on their shoe, so I’m going to assume it was of the dog variety, but I didn’t stay to investigate. I left, disgusted in more ways than one, and started planning a phone call to Wal Mart to ask them WTF is up with all of that.

Has anyone else had this problem at their Wal Mart? I hope you haven’t had the same experiece with the shit, but how is your Wal Mart at keeping Twilight stuff stocked? Or is your Twilight store like mine, dusty and pretty much forgotten?
