wondering what this series is about? read here to find out more… :)
I don't know about you, but for me, busyness trumps wardrobe this summer! Our local Goodwill has not seen me in a while, thanks to some very busy weeks at our house. {I wonder if they'll remember me when I get back?}
My favorite retail stores do get a quick run in now and then, though, so today I thought I'd share outfits from my fave retail places! :D
1. Target and the Gap Outlet
I bought the triangle top for $10 at the Gap Outlet, and the shorts were from Target for $12. The sandals were $12 from my next favorite place to find cute stuff...
2. Marshall's
I bought this dress for our special 10th anniversary dinner for $20 at Marshall's. The shoes were a vintage Goodwill find for $5!
I was so excited to find the dress! It was at least one size too big, but I really liked the lace panels, and I was majorly pressed for time. With four kids in tow, dress shopping just isn't the same as it used to be! :) I may have to do some self-tailoring on it when I get a chance. :)
3. Ross
I got this floral top at Ross a year or two ago for $8, and the shorts were $10 from the A&F outlet 3 years ago. The satin headband is Goody from Target last year. I love the vintage twist! :D
Those are my top four retail stores for sure! And, I would definitely add American Eagle to that list to round out my top five places to find great deals on cute clothing. :)
What are your favorite retail stores?

I say you host a Goodwill trip because I never have any luck finding good stuff.

I love their jeans but hate spending so much and going in there..I feel like Im 90 (Im not even quite 30)!!lol.
ReplyDeleteGap outlet is one of my favorites right now. Last week I ran in and they had racks of items for $1.97! After a coupon I had I walked away with two different dresses for $5 each, new work out pants for $10, pants for my husband for $1.70, and quite a few kids things for less than $2 an item. I wasn't even going to go into Gap that day, so glad that I did.

Ross is my husband's favorite store, but there are none where we live, so I've yet to experience one. I'm always on the lookout for places that have good deals on clothes for smaller sizes, because I often have trouble finding good quality clothes at affordable prices--we don't have a Gap outlet near us but I could try Marshalls!
ReplyDeleteYou look adorable as always!!
ReplyDeleteYou named it!! The Gap Outlet is seriously my go to place. What would I do without it??!
ReplyDeleteYou've named off some of my fave stores here, Mandy!!! Loving the Marshall's dress and your head wrap in the last few shots! ~Sarah
