Hello lovelies,
I’m finally
back! I am sorry I took a few days off—I just went on an incredible shopping
trip. In and around my small town, there are really no great places to go
shopping. I love going on mini family trips anyway, so the fact that we were
able to go to one of the biggest malls in the United States was AMAZING. I was
so incredibly happy. I was also able to meet up with one of my college friends
who lives in the area which was a blast as well. I am not posting this to brag
at all! I am really hoping it doesn’t come across that way. I never get the
chance to splurge, so when I get the opportunity to go shopping at a good mall,
then I take the chance. I have put in extra hours at work, so I figured I would
let myself do a little shopping. So, without further ado, here are my purchases!
So, the
first place I stopped was Urban Outfitters. I love looking at their merchandise
online, so I figured I would take a little peek inside. While most of their
original priced merchandise is too spendy for me, I headed back to the sale and
found an adorable denim dress jumper. It was on sale for $20, and I am in LOVE.
I thought a nice printed crop top would look perfect underneath, and I found
that at my next stop.
Sorry for the terrible angle--I was running out of daylight so I had to take it here!
If you
don’t know, I am obsessed with Forever 21. They have cheap prices and clothes
that I just love. This store was a huge two stories, so I was in shopping
shock. So, I went through the store hunting for a cheap crop top perfect for
summer to go with my new jumper, and I found a cute floral one for only $8.80.
It’s perfect for summer, and I love the print! I also found an adorable London
tee for only $10.80 (since London is still my dream!). As I told you before, my
style icon is Lou Teasdale. I have adored her striped jeans that she wore at my
concert (how cool!), so I went on a hunt to find a pair. I found some on
Forever 21’s website, and when I went to the store, I couldn’t find the pair I
was looking for. However, I was going through the clearance, and I found the
jeans on sale for $16.99. Then, I found out they were an extra 50% off of that,
so they ended up being $8.49. It doesn’t get better than that. I also bought a
band tee that Lou has (or a very similar) for $15.80. I was one happy girl
leaving that store.
I headed
into Aerie next, in which they have plenty of dainty lingerie. I got this lacey
bra on sale for $15. I thought it would be perfect to wear under a tee or tank
for summer, and I love the light peach color.
I had never
been to a Nordstrom, or a Topshop for that matter, but I had dreamed of Topshop
for as long as I can remember. I love everything! So, I had to take a peek and
see what I could find. Of course, regularly priced merchandise is quite
expensive, so I headed to the sale and found some gorgeous products. When I
laid eyes on the sweater, it was love at first sight. It was regularly $72, on
sale for $19.99. It was perfect. I also got this chunky, silver jeweled
necklace for $9.98, originally $20.00. I also got this gorgeous, jeweled brooch
for $9.98, originally $28.00. I got an over-sized, chain necklace that I thought
was so unique for $14.98, originally $40.00. I had some amazing sales there! I
also heard that Batiste products are incredible, and I had never seen them
anywhere near me before, so I purchased some dry shampoo for $8.00. I’m so
excited to try it!
I had to
stop at American Apparel and see what I could find, and I had to take a peek at
their bows. I love Bethany Mota on YouTube, and she is always wearing the most
adorable bows, so I had to buy one! I got this giant pink one for $10, and I
cannot wait to wear it!
When I met
up with my friend from college, she recommended some stores for me to check
out. I went to Francesca’s, a little boutique, and got these gorgeous earrings
on sale for $4.99. Everything there was absolutely adorable!
We also
went into a jewelry store called Six, and again, sale jewelry got me. I got
this adorable ring for only $1.99. It doesn’t get any better than that.
She also
took me to DSW, Designer Shoe Warehouse. I had never been to one, and I
definitely never expected to buy anything. We were looking through the sale
shoes, and I found some adorable shoes. They are Betsey Johnson, and were
originally $104.94. I looked and saw they were 80% off, which was incredible. I
got them for only $20.99. Basically the best sale of the day!
I also took
a pit-stop at H&M and got a few things. I was looking for a new bag, and
this bag was on sale for only $15.00! I also got a new, statement necklace for
only $5, but it was buy one get one free sale products, so the necklace was
free. I also just read a blog post from a fellow blogger recommending the
Smokey palette, so I figured I would try it out for only $5.95.
Whoofta,
that’s finally everything! I know this is a lot, and I know I didn’t need all
of this. I am so blessed to be able to try all of these new things, and I am so
glad to share it with you! Have you had any recent hauls? What are your
favorites? Leave your comments below! I would love to hear feedback from you
all! Thanks for putting up with this long post. And, again, I would like to
thank you for reading my blog. This means the world to me, and I love you all
so very much.
Thank you, and much love,
Maggie D. xx
