Finally Friday #4: My Top 3 Mall Stops!

I am a girl. I LOVE shopping. I can't help it. Now don't get me wrong I don't spend over my budget, but if there is a wicked cute top or shoes, I probably am going to buy it. Just like every other girl though I have my favorite stores that I have to go to anytime I go to the mall. So here it is my top three "go-tos" at the mall:

1. Victoria Secret- Ok, well with this one I'm pretty much an addict. I have posted about it before and here I am again. I swear by Victoria and her lack of secret! All of my bras and panties come straight from this store. Although a little tip, wait for the 7 for $26 sale which happens about 4 times a year. This is the best time to buy undies. This sale can also join up with the sales promotion in November where if you buy anything you receive a mystery card worth at least $10 to spend in December. Also thanks to a friend I am now also hooked on the yoga wear which is unbelievably comfy. I try to always use coupons and shop only when they have deals because it makes it all more affordable. :) Still my Number One!!!

2. American Eagle- I am now 23, a working engineer and have been shopping at this store since middle school. Once again I almost never shop the full priced racks but even if you did you can still find adorably affordable clothing. My favorite is their jeans, as an athletic build their jeans fit my muscular thighs without making me feel like I'm stuffing sausage into a casing. They have the perfect amount of stretch while still maintaining a structure that accents my best features. I have moved around frequently over the last few years and this is one store that truly reflects its area. For example, when I shopped American Eagle in Vermont I was able to find many cute feminine cut flannels. When shopping in the Boston, MA area I find more skinny jeans, less flannel and more "chic" relaxed type clothing.  Regardless you can always find at least one staple for your wardrobe!

3. H&M- This is a fairly new one added to my list but during my last trip I scored big for cheap here. It is a store that provides trendy clothing at, once again, affordable price. I have been really into chiffon and similar materials. I love the way they flow and are comfortable to wear while being office appropriate. I will admit it is directed toward the young crowd ( I suppose that means me. Ha!) So hemlines are on the short side but with proper accessories it can transform to be appropriate! Personally, I try to keep it classy so pair a short skirt with a blazer or cardigan is definitely recommended.

Enjoy the rest of your week!!! Sorry this is an old Friday Post that never made it to publish.
