Hey there! I had some major issues with my website’s server last week but I think we are back up and running now.
Hope you’ve had a great weekend. On Saturday, I met my mom and sister for a little bit of outlet shopping.
My sister likes to give me a hard time about my style (because I have none) and immediately told me I had dressed like Bindi Irwin when she saw me…. hey, whatever’s comfortable 
Everyone decided I needed to spruce up my wardrobe and helped me pick out a few new things for my closet. The main thing I was in the market for was a romper because I have always wanted one. I ended up getting 3 and I was pretty happy about that.
I also got a few dresses, some new shorts and a couple of tops.
I would call that a success. I got everything from Banana Republic and The Loft. If you’re ever going to shop at a Banana Republic outlet store then I’d recommend signing up for their emails beforehand. They frequently send out 40% off coupons and you can save a ton of money on a big shopping trip!
After several hours of shopping, we went out to lunch and then headed our separate ways. I’m glad we live close enough to be able to do things like this every now and then. Special shout out to my mom to treating me to some new clothes. Aren’t moms the best?
I spent a lot of yesterday unpacking and getting things organized in the new house. My priority has been my kitchen, which I pretty much have settled now minus all of the things I still need to get. I took advantage of the Memorial Day sales online last weekend and got some new kitchen things.
I have always wanted a really deep frying pan so hopefully I get a lot of use out of the 12” jumbo fryer. And you guys know I can’t live without a slow cooker. Stay tuned for a special post about it tomorrow!
What did you do this weekend?
Cant to see what you make with the new appliances! PS loving all the new clothes- I’ve always wanted a romper but I feel like I cant pull them off, the ones you got were SO CUTE though! #romperenvy
I also feel like I can’t pull them off because the shorts are typically shorter and I have short legs. My mom and sister convinced me that these looked good and fit well… time will tell, haha
SO you are going to come and get me to use my crockpot, right?
Yes! Stay tuned for tomorrow’s post… it’s especially for you.
Awesome shopping spree! That’s the best when you have a bunch of new clothes to wear.
Definitely!
I tried on a romper a few weeks ago, but because my bum is bigger that my boobs it did not fit right at all. Bummer!
So I have had that exact same problem… they go up my butt and then are huge in the chest
Love the new finds! Rompers are so comfortable, love them! I also went shopping with my mom this weekend, they really are the best :) I didn’t have any luck finding any clothes, probably because I’m a really impatient shopper, which I why I don’t go a ton lol, but did find some comfy flip flops and then spent a GAP gift card online Sunday, so it all worked out :)
Online shopping is the best
Ohhh I like all of the new outfits! I need to find some time for summer clothes shopping soon. Every weekend I say I’m going to do it and then I skip out. I like buying new clothes but I hate trying things on in the fitting room; taking clothes on and off is so time consuming and annoying (especially when something you really liked just doesn’t look right)!
I agree that trying on clothes is very annoying!! I usually don’t make it past 1 or 2 stores before the whole thing gets kind of old. I like The Loft and Banana because they carry petites, so I have a pretty good idea of what will fit me well and what sizes I should try on. I definitely wouldn’t have bought anything if my mom and sister hadn’t had been there :)
CUTE!! I desperately need to go shopping, can I borrow your sister? :) I have a true lack of style too!
Ha, you can borrow her but you will have to tolerate her commentary :)
