To be real here, I always used to rock plaid and flares growing up. Taking it back to the old school, I’m still on a mission to find a bigger ‘bell’ bottom, and I’m obsessed with these!

I love when I find exactly what I want online (i.e. this denim!) but I still have a love/hate relationship with online shopping. Nine times out of ten I’m more than likely to end up at the store returning it for a different size or something different all together. Being a detailed shopper, if I order something and don’t like it, I’ve learned most retailers won’t let you do an return + exchange if you order online, which means you have to return your purchase, wait to get the credit back, and then reorder what you want. It should be something I accept, but on top of having to wait for it to come in the mail, I just can’t! If you’re like me, and just can’t, here are a few tip’s I generally find helpful when it comes to online shopping…

1.) Be proactive. A lot of the time when I shop online I typically do it to either get ideas of what I’m looking for, or what to look for at the store-think H&M & Forever. It can be so overwhelming, so be proactive, and try not to get too distracted. It can be hard to do, but after a couple of times you’ll become a pro at it.

2.) Must-have’s only! Don’t get me wrong, if I absolutely have to have something-like these shoes, I don’t mind the wait and anticipation. I know, #FirstWorldProblems right?! But make sure you absolutely love it, and it’s not an impulse buy. (An amazing sale, is kind of hard to pass up!!)

3.) Free shipping. I always take into consideration how much I’m paying for shipping, but I pretty much always meet the free shipping cost. Always factor in your shipping cost to make sure it’s really worth it. If you can save a few bucks and they have it in store, scoop it up during your lunch break with a side of happiness.

Now…let’s have a moment of silence for all the clothes we added to our shopping cart but never bought.

Thanks for reading!

Fun Fact: Stores I can’t go to are what I will typically order from first, only makes sense. 🙂

Fall Neutrals

VICTORIAN STYLE
 BEAUTY

A few things to add to my shopping list this week. Being a hat lover, you can never have too many, which is why I need to add a little color into my wool hat collection. I love this one and this color will go with just about everything! A shopping trip to Sephora is in my near future and I feel like changing it up a bit from my current eye pallet. I love this one and this as an everyday color.

I’m starting to update my shop page with all my fall favorites so if your looking for more retail therapy click here, or head over to my Pintrest page for more of my daily inspo!

Thanks for stopping by.

Trend to Try: Silk Scarf

Either you’ve seen them recently as the hottest statement piece, or in the past, neckerchiefs are the perfect transitional piece to try now. There’s something so chic and effortless about a silk scarf tied in a knot around your neck that feels classy. You can find different fabrics and sizes but to achieve this look you want to stick to a smaller cuts and lighter fabrics (i.e. silk or satin).  When transitioning into a new season, especially summer to fall I start to think of different ways to layer and this is the perfect addition. There are a ton of ways to tie-you can also try tying around your wrist too, and lot’s of practice to be done, where do we begin?!
Head over to my Pintrest for more inspo!
