Tanger Outlet Shopping Haul

Disclosure

Happy Friday!!

A few weeks ago, I mentioned here that the baby and I took a trip down to the Tanger Outlet location in Locust Grove to do a little shopping. I actually frequent that location to do most of my clothes shopping because not only are the deals great but because it is closer to me than the nearest quality mall.

I used my gift card to pick up a few things for Addison to head back to school. Here’s a short video of all the goodies that I managed to squeeze in on $50!

Sears Style: How to Style Junior Jeans for Adult Women

CB-sponsored-post-black-script-600

The idea of grown women shopping in the Juniors section of any department store sort of makes me cringe. Why you ask? If it was okay for women to wear teenagers clothing then there wouldn’t be a delineation of clothing type in my opinion. I have been know to be a hypocrite when it comes to certain things and today I proved myself wrong when it came to me, a grown women crossing over and shopping in the Juniors section of Sears.

I’m a skinny jean girl. I love skinny jeans, I like the ankles as narrow as they come and I would prefer them to be dark washed. I like what I like, and if it isn’t broke then don’t fix it. Well I was challenged to go into Sears and take a look at their current denim offerings and pick something out of my norm.

So I did some looking and searching and unfortunately in the adult section I didn’t find anything in the fit I wanted that particularly tickled my fancy. After walking around in circles I knew it was time to cross over the linoleum aisle and step foot into the land of Juniors *insert horror movie scream*

Surprisingly not only did I find some out of the box denim but the pricing was great. As I perused the aisles I wanted something a little different that I could possibly tone down and make appropriate for a grown woman to wear. After a couple of trips to the dressing room because I kept forgetting that Junior sizes don’t account for adult hips I finally decided to take home a Bongo pair of jeans with some distressing, rips, and contrast stitching. What drew my eye to them was the contrast in the stitch, second to the rips. After trying them on I was smitten with the length and how they kind of scrunched around my ankles.

When purchasing I made sure to get credit to my Shop Your Way account, which gives me credit for qualifying purchases. While I had credit available that I could’ve applied to my purchase I decided not to use them at this time.

Fashion Weekend

Weekend Wrap Up

This weekend. Ahhhhhh this weekend. This weekend for obvious reasons, read George Zimmerman acquittal has been a roller coaster of emotions and deep thought regarding the state of race issues in American, the state of the United States Judicial system and the fact that my heart absolutely mourns for the Trayvon Martin’s family. I don’t have much to say in this space regarding this except for I am prayerful for his family and the state of this nation.
