Shop 'Til You Drop | March TBB Asks

Monday, March 4, 2019

 I'm not going to lie...I don't enjoy shopping.
I never have.
So when I saw this was our prompt today I almost passed on it.
But I'm not a quitter!
So let's dive into the questions below and see how I fare shall we ;)




1. Top 3 Shops?

Nordstrom/Nordstrom Rack
Target
Old Navy

I have two out of three/four of those stores in my small town, so that is part of the reason they are in my top 3.
And who doesn't love free shipping and returns from Nordstrom?
And the Anniversary sale is where I tend to load up on all the goodies for Fall!


Honorable Mention goes out to Altar'd State, Amazon & Walmart.
The latter two have really stepped up their game, and are slowly moving up the list.


2. Where is the majority of your shopping done - in store or online?

Depends on the day/my mood/need.
If I am at Target or Walmart, I just look around while I am shopping for other things.
Sometimes I stop into Old Navy, but our store isn't the best and I typically find way more online.
Otherwise, I tend to order online from one of the above mentioned retailers because we don't have a store front nearby (less than an hour drive ~ 62 miles away).


3. What's your favorite thing to shop for?

Probably jackets or graphic tees.
I have so many of each of them, and I am constantly finding more that I love/want.
Currently looking to add this one to my collection ;)



4. What do you just HATE shopping for?

Probably pajamas.
Such a waste of money in my world.
I tend to wear just some shorts/sweats and a tee to bed every night.
The only time I do buy pj's is for Christmas Eve :)



5. What's your most favorite thing you've ever bought?

Either my must have denim jacket  - I wore out the first one, that I had to buy it again! And I grabbed it in two different washes as well!


Or my Camo winter coat from Abercrombie last year.
I wear it ALL THE TIME!
And I still get so many compliments on it!



Honorable mention would be my seat belt purse.



I discovered Harvey's bags almost 13 years ago and I have been smitten ever since.
I carried my bag and wallet almost every day for a good 10 years!
I finally switched it up about a year ago.
Everywhere I went people would ask me about it :)


6. Do you prefer shopping alone or with others?

I typically like shopping alone unless I am with like minded shoppers.
Meaning, scan and move on if you don't find something.
I can't take walking around for hours looking at each thing in the store, trying things on, looking at more, etc.
This is the same reason why I don't like Mic going to the grocery store with me.
We would be there forever while he looks at every single thing!


7. Best Bargain?

This one is tough!
Probably because I don't like to spend much money on anything, so most of the things I purchase are a bargain.
Most things I score on Amazon would be considered a bargain.
And I think you are getting a great deal on Articles of Society jeans when they are on sale for under $40!


8. Thrift Store Shopping: Yes or No?

I just have never been able to do it.
I went in a store way back in high school with a friend to look for some pieces for a 70's costume.
I couldn't do it.
I have a seriously keen sense of smell.
It doesn't matter how much everything in the store has been washed, I couldn't take all the smells mixed together.
This is also why I don't wear perfume and can't walk through that section in stores.


9. Best cities for shopping?

I like to online shop, so really any city will do!
Otherwise I would have to go with Nashville.


10. Who's your style or fashion icon?

These days that is a lot harder to pin down.
For many years I so looked up to Cindy Crawford and her style..still do actually.
I love Kristen Cavallari, Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Aniston, Mila Kunis, and Jenna Dewan's style as well.


I am loving Jena Green's style these days.




As well as Brooke @ KBStyled and Mel @ EllaBrooksBlog.

  1. The older I get the less I enjoy actual shopping! I blame online shopping for making it way too easy to click and go!
