I was able to shop in store with my daughter and mom, which was fun. We had an SA set up a room for stuff and she pulled everything on my wish list 🤣 I tried to tell her which ones I really liked but she insisted. And good thing because I did buy things that weren’t at the top of my list. Everyone at the store was super kind and friendly, I’m glad we went. It was pretty dead, which surprised me. The snack boxes and embroidery on the bag were great, would have been nice to have a little more food (but I appreciated the coffee).
Ok things I tried on that I loved - this Julia Jordan dress is amazing, fit and colors. Highly recommend! I paired it with the Steve Madden boots (which I loved and had no intention of buying, whoops) and this green hat (which I loved and was great in person).
I also loved this Julia Jordan dress but prefer the burgundy color - it’s clingy so if you’re in between sizes maybe go up one.
This halogen dress was the sleeper hit for me, I can’t recommend it enough. It has pockets, the fabric is casual but voluminous, it’s elegant and can be dressed up but is also perfect for a casual summer day. Like this really wow’ed me (can you tell?) It pays to try things on in store if you can!
I loved this Caslon sweater but am not getting it now since my budget was spent. It’s a nice thick cotton and I love the pop of orange. I paired with wit and wisdom jeans and the
Nordstrom ballet flats - love the shape of these and the price is right for quality.
Things I tried but didn’t get - Zoe Claire dress is lovely, but I didn’t feel like I’d wear the white tweed enough, I didn’t love the super low neckline on this green wayf dress but loved the sleeves and quality was good, finally this Chelsea28 dress was lovely but too formal for my purposes.
Online I bought the madewell striped sweater, Ugg slippers, Bernardo woven brown flats, mini Boden for my little boy, strawberry sleeper for the baby and madewell belt. So far everything is shipping or ready for pick up. Lastly my daughter got the Habitual black denim ballet dress (this was so nice!), Tucker and Tate pink denim jacket (super cute and will last a few years), the Tucker and Tate Teddy sweatshirt (her favorite) and the mini boden shirt with horses.
A much more successful day than I intended it to be! And I still need to order my MV turquoise necklace. I hope everyone has fun today and this week!
