Post-exam shopping

After a stressful exam, there is no better way to make yourself feel better than to go shopping... right? Haha.
Here are a couple of the things I've tried on today. I also went to Aeropostale, but I'll save that for another post so I don't make this post too long.

First store: Club Monaco.

#1: Stripe Sweater
(from Club Monaco)


Price: $89.50 -> $59
Size: XS 
Pros: Nice rosy color in a very soft material. I liked how it had a little bit of "sheerness" to it.
Cons: Sleeves were too long on me, but most of all, this sweater was nothing too special.
Decision: Did not buy.

 #2: Sleeveless Top
(from Club Monaco)
similar from Marc Jacob - here

Price: On sale for I think $59? Don't remember.
Size: S 
Pros: I liked the color and how it looked on the side.
Cons: Small was the smallest size left available and it was too big. The shirt looks like a bag from the front. This is my opinion, but I feel that the sale associates there were not very honest. They said the top fits very nicely on me and it looks perfect. This top was too big for me and the fit is definitely not perfect.
Decision: Did not buy.

#3: Bow Tie Blouse
(from Club Monaco)


Price: $89?? Oops, I forgot to take note of the prices of this top too.
Size: XS 
Pros: I saw this on the rack and I had to try it on. You can't see from my crappy pictures, but there are little dots all over the blouse and it looks really cute. I love the bow and the color too.
Cons: The sleeves were long (but that was expected and that wasn't too bad), but what bothered me more was how wide they were on the arms so they looked baggy. Maybe I'll come back and grab this when it goes on sale... since I can't justify spending almost a hundred bucks on this.
Decision: Did not buy.

*********************************************

Then... off to Bedo. This was actually my first time in this store. Haha.

#4: Sleeveless Ivory Ruffle Blouse
(from Bedo)


Price: $64.90 -> $49.90

Size: S 
Pros: Surprisingly, this small fits pretty nicely. I love the ruffles and how feminine this looks. Also, because it is white, it is easy to match with anything and everything.
Cons: Super staticy for some reason. I already have two tops very similar to this one (in beige and in black), so I don't know if I should buy another one.

Decision: Considering.

*********************************************

#5:  Short-Sleeve Ivory Blouse
(from Bedo)


Price: $49.90

Size: S 
Pros: I liked that it was sheer. And the white dots all over it was really cute.
Cons: The wide sleeve opening was awkward on me.

Decision: Did not buy.

*********************************************

Surprisingly, I did not go crazy and splurge on clothing today.
However... I bought shoes instead LOL. Maybe I'll talk about that in another entry?

I'm still debating over that white blouse. Although it looks pretty nice, it looks almost the same as the two I already have... And it is white... which means I will easily get stains on it because of how clumsy I am.

I'll update again soon.
Hope you guys are enjoying your holiday shopping as much as I am XD

Computer is messed up

Sorry for the lack of updates.
My desktop is messed up and it won't even start. All my photos are on there and since I have no access to the photos, I can't update the blog yet =(

Hopefully, I can get it fixed soon. I don't even know what happened. It was completely fine one day and the next day I turn it on, it won't start.

Just killing time

I went to kill some time at Old Navy while waiting. It was the closest store to the exit. Haha.

#1: Printed Crew Neck Pullover
(Available online)


Price: $24.94
Size: XS
Pros: Love the print and the fit!
Cons: I guess you could say that because I have a short torso, the sweater fits longer on me... but I see that as a pro more since I like the length like that.
Decision: Purchased.

*********************************************

#2: Girls Fuzzy Hoodie
(Available online)


Price: $29.94
Size: Girls - XL
Pros: This looked cute and cozy... on the hanger. I thought it'd be fun to try on since I had more time to kill.

Cons: Size L was too small and XL was too big... But either way, this hoodie is not flattering at all. It looks like I gained 10 pounds after putting this on.

Decision: Did not buy.

*********************************************

So, I guess I got myself a surprise find today and unexpectedly spent some money, but I am liking the pullover sweater a lot =]
