Happy weekend everyone! It looks like it is going to be a nice fall one here. I finally got the opportunity to do some shopping after a recent doctor appointment. I just went without any specific agenda to see what I could find. I’m always surprised by what I end up really liking when browsing through stores. You never can tell until you try something on. This is a longer post than normal, so let’s get started! Our first stop is Nordstrom.
Same Coat In Camel | Similar Blush Coat
This is the cutest coat, though I’m not sure about the fit on me. I need the next size up for it to fit correctly across the chest. It was snug when I tried to button it. I love the color and fun fur collar. I could not find it on Nordstrom’s website, so I linked a similar Blush Coat. I did find this Coat in camel on Topshop’s website. It is priced well at under $100.
Bow Neck Top
This top is cute and reasonably priced but runs small. I had to size up in it, and it is still snug across my chest. If you are on the thinner side or have a smaller chest, I think this top would work for you. I love it in red for the holidays.
Twist Front Sweatshirt
Okay, I have to say sorry for the messy hair, the shoes that don’t match, the dirty mirrors, and the lighting! It was raining that day. Also, don’t you just love dressing room lighting!! You would think that they would put better lighting in dressing rooms. After all, they do want to sell clothes – it’s a wonder anyone buys anything when viewing themselves under that awful lighting! Okay, enough said.
This Sweatshirt was really comfortable and cute. This is the only color that was in my size in the store. It comes in more color choices online. I tend to not buy a lot of blue tops, because I wear a lot of blue jeans.
Knit Blazer
I did not actually pick out this knit blazer. The sales lady brought it to me to try. Since I don’t work outside the home, I don’t wear blazers. Yet, I know they can be for more than just for the office. I do love that this one is a soft knit. I’m just not sure that it works for me.
Cowl Neck Convertible Tunic | Similar Faux Leather Leggings
I like this outfit better. This Tunic can be worn off the shoulders too. I like that it is a little more fitted through the waist, though I would definitely wear SPANX Leggings with it. I can’t remember what brand of faux leather leggings I’m wearing with the tunic in this photo. I know they were not Spanx. I guess it doesn’t matter because I wasn’t a fan of them. I do think this is a cute outfit for date night or a holiday party.
Camo Vest | Similar Tee
This camo vest is really cute. It does run big. I am wearing one size down in it. This one is a winner!
Tiered Long Sleeve Tee | Camo Pants
This one was a winner too! My husband would be so proud of how much I liked the camo. Ha! These Camo Pants are a little big on me, but they didn’t have my size. If they did, I think the length would be better too. Fortunately, it is in stock in most sizes online. They do come in petite sizes if you are on the shorter side like I am.
I also like this Black Top too. While the small fit, the arms were just a little tight. I tried the medium which is much better. It comes in a red too which would be fun to pair with these camo pants.
Slides | Boots
I did not try these on, but I have had my eye on these Boots for a while – so, so cute! For now, I kept on walking which is not easy since I love shoes. Will power, girl, will power!
With that in mind, I think it’s time to exit Nordstrom and head to Ann Taylor.
Emerald Green Top
This is a gorgeous Top! I love the sleeves. A great top to wear during the holidays. By the way, I did not draw the smiley face on the mirror. Hehe!
Pearl Sweater
I love this Sweater! The pearls are such a fun detail. It can be dressed up or down. It fits true to size and would be great to wear during the holidays too.
This next top I saw at Dillard’s recently. I could not find the cute red polka dot one online. 🙁 I did find the black one on Nordstrom’s website plus some other cute colors.
Wrap Top
While I did not have time to try this one on, this top looks way too low cut to wear on its own. I think it would look great with a pretty Cami underneath it, though.
Floral Dress
This dress is much prettier in person than in pictures. I wish I had tried it on. It would be so pretty for a fall wedding.
Whew! Clothes shopping is hard work. I may need to bring some cleaner for the mirrors with me next time. Ha! Did you see anything you liked?
