Getting to Know Me: My stores!

Here's yet another series, Getting to Know Me. In the "getting to know me" posts I will tell a little about where I like to shop, what I normally gravitate toward, how I choose my outfits, and so on. The first installment is My Stores! 

The first store I absolutely love to shop at (in case you couldn't already tell) is Forever 21.

Well, if you know Forever 21, and shop there the reasons I love it are pretty obvious. It has amazing clothes-plenty of basics, and then some more fun, quirky pieces- and they have great prices. I own a pair of skinny leather pants from there, you haven't seen them on here, but you will, and guess how much they are. $11.99 on the website. Twelve dollars for a great pair of pants! Twelve!

The next store I'm known to frequent is Rue 21. 


Rue 21 is bascially the same thing as Forever 21, but they are a little different. Rue 21 has a different vibe than Forever 21. Rue 21 has a lot more dressy items, and Forever 21 has a great mixture of both. Rue 21 also has an amazing selection of accessories. Almost every time I go into that store I come out with either shoes, a scarf or some form of jewelry.It's prices are slightly higher than Forever 21's, but they are still great deals.

Another store I like a lot is H&M.

H&M is definitely the place to go if you like high-end basics. When I look at their online selection I see a lot of solid colors, and staples for any woman/girl's closet. However, I especially like their accessory section too. Before Christmas there was this great set of like, 6 rings that were to die for! Also, I don't know if anyone reading this has ever actually been in a H&M store, but there is literally walls, and walls of accessories. No lie. Hats, scarves, jewelry, belts, shoes, you name it. Gahh, just thinking about it makes me want to go back to New York City, where I had my first encounter with this store. Needless to say, I'm hooked for life. 

Next on the list is American Eagle. 

Now, American Eagle isn't really like the stores I listed above. It's more mainstream, and relaxed, but nevertheless I still like it, and I still shop there. Their jeans are my favorite out of all other stores. They fit me great, and the skinnies are slim, but not tooooo tight like other skinnies I've worn. I'm also a fan of their flannel shirts. They're nice and comfy, very warm. They always have the cutest outfits set out on the mannequins too. I always love them. The prices here are a little steep, but I think you get what you pay for.

So, that's basically all the stores I like to shop at. There are a few I left out, just because I don't shop at them as much, but you get the idea. Well, that's the first post of "Getting to Know Me!" I am in no way affiliated with any of the brands above. I just love them!

Thanks for reading!

Outfit of the Day! 12-27-11

First official post! 

My outfit of the day for today was a fairly simple one, didn't take long to pick out and I really like it. It was fairly comfortable to wear and was actually really warm. 

Leather Jacket: Forever 21
Tan-Carmel Lace Top: Forever 21
White Camisole: Rue 21
Black Skinny Jeans: Forever 21
Tiger Print Wedges: Forever 21

Wow... Lots of 21's. Haha. 

The only complaint I have about this outfit is that after a full day of shopping and walking around my feet are killing me. Until tomorrow!

Thanks for reading!
