TGIF! This week has been a good one and even better since the weather was beautiful. We had another day of 70 degree weather and I can't get enough! We're supposed to have a beautiful weekend before we go back to colder temps next week. Thursday started GAP Give and Get F&F 30% off promotion and I hope everyone is taking advantage. I'm sad to report that I was not impressed with what was in stores. I went to Banana Republic first and nothing really wowed me. The clothes were mostly boring and didn't say Spring to me. I did happen to find a super cool pair of aviator sunglasses that were a close match to Ray Ban's. I've been wanting a pair of Ray Ban's for a while and these were half the price. With my 30% discount, they came out to about $50!
Shawn Sunglasses - $68 Banana Republic
My next stop was the Gap and all I can say is....BOOOOOOORING. I just didn't love anything they had. There wasn't much variety, everything looked the same and once again, nothing said Spring is in the air to me. I left the Gap empty handed.
I decided to give Old Navy a try today after work and I've seen all these ads and commercials of super cute, flirty, spring dresses and skirts and vibrant colors and just knew I would be leaving with some purchases and ...nope, nothing. To be honest, the dresses and skirts looked way to casual to wear to work and the material and fit looked cheap and frumpy. A lot of stuff I saw on line just wasn't in store or didn't live up to my expectation. I was soo disappointed. Maybe this was a sign I shouldn't have been shopping? Naaahhh :)
After my unsuccessful shopping trips, I decided to come home, hit the gym and then take out my bins of Spring and Summer clothes and see what I can work with. It was like shopping without spending money! I realized a have a lot of good skirts, dresses to start Spring off right! I plan on laying low this weekend and just soaking up some sun and warmth on the porch or in the backyard. If I decide to head to the mall and find any good deals and buys, I'll be sure to share. I'll leave you with my OOTD.
