Just a Little Shopping :)

Hi Everyone!  Since I've been so inspired by fall outfits on Pinterest (how can you not be OBSESSED with that Website?!?!), I decided to take a little trip to the mall.  My first stop was American Eagle.  I know American Eagle is geared more towards the 12-18 age range; however, I absolutely love the way AE's jeans fit me.  I have tried many brands of jeans in various price ranges, but I always come back to American Eagle.  And the best part, all of their jeans are on sale for $29.99.  I don't know how long this sale will last, so go out and buy a pair...or 2...or 3 :)  I purchased three pairs of jeans:  two skinny and one pair of jeggings.  I like to purchase jeggings one size up so they aren't "legging tight."

Next stop, H&M.  I am so happy that I now live near an H&M.  The only problem I have with H&M is sizing.  My shirt size can range from XS to M.  I know style can sometimes change the size you need, but I feel that there is quite a difference between XS and M.  Anyways, enough of my rant, because H&M has some really cute sweaters for fall.


I am currently obsessing over navy and stripes, so the second sweater HAD to come home with me.  I also purchased it in mint, which I love as well.  The third shirt is a jersey knit sleeveless black shirt with a chiffon  detail on the sleeves and the bottom.

Pricing (from L to R):  $24.95 / $24.95 / $12.95

I also purchased three basic tanks from H&M.  I love their basics, and with a fantastic color range and a low price of $7.95, you can't go wrong!  I purchased mine in a light, neon pink, navy blue and a bright coral.


I made a quick stop at Marshall's to see if the store near the mall had anything different than the store right by my house.  I picked up two shirts and one pair of shorts.  Unfortunately, the picture of the shorts would not upload (ugh, I really need to invest in a camera and stop using my iPhone).  But if you have payed any attention to trends this summer, then you have seen shorts like the ones I purchased.  They are crochet/lace in a cream color.  I think I am going to pair them with a basic black top (tucked in, of course), black wedges/pumps, and a bright statement necklace.  Okay, now onto what I can show you...


I found two chiffon high-low shirts.  The white buttons and the black does not.  I like these because even though it is still warm outside, they are sheer enough to be okay with shorts, and they will definitely transition great into fall.  

Pricing Information
Shorts:  $16.99
Black Shirt:  $12.99
White Shirt:  $14.99

My final stop of the day was Old Navy.  I normally don't shop at Old Navy because I have never like the fit of their clothes.  However, I found two sweaters that are amazingly soft AND fit me (yay!).  


Pricing (L to R):  $26.94 / $15

Okay, I think that's enough damage to my wallet for one day.  Keep on the lookout for upcoming posts about how I plan to style these new additions to my wardrobe!

xoxo,
Liz
