Outlet Dreaming

Monday, June 30, 2014

Yesterday, Kyle got mandated for overtime, so while he was working on his 48-hrs in a row, I went to the St. Augustine Outlets! 
Originally I was only going to make my return at J. Crew Factory, nothing more... 
but then I got trapped in Nine West when it started pouring and, well, I went to a few other stores two. Oops! 
I did make my return at J. Crew Factory, which was actually an exchange because I found a super cute sweater on sale which will be great for my upcoming trip to Europe. And then at Nine West, I made another Europe trip buy, this time some (hopefully) comfortable sandals for walking around cobblestone streets. I tested them out for as long as I could in the store, before I got fed up with every single employee asking if I was still doing okay. Those were the only two things I bought, but I really had to stop myself on all of the things you see below...
1. This cute maxi from Papaya was really close to making it home with me! I don't have anything like it in my closet, but I stopped myself because I knew I didn't need it. Birthday list, maybe?! 
2. I LOVE THESE SUNNIES! J. Crew Factory did a lot of things right with these cute cat-eye glasses
3. These aren't the exact pair of black ankle strap wedges I fell in love with at Nine West, but they are pretty close! I might even like them better? Hard to say... 
4. Another great sweater from J. Crew Factory. I love the lightness of it! They didn't have this color in my size unfortunately. 
5. While I didn't try on this awesome sweater from Banana Republic Factory Store, I loved to on the hanger! The material is great, very good quality. If i hadn't bought a sweater in the same color at J. Crew, than I probably would have walked home with it for my Europe trip. 6. I walked away from this dress in Banana Republic Factory Store, but started to have second thoughts as I continued shopping. I forced myself to stay away, but I definitely could see this dress being a great go-to casual dress for the rest of the summer!

Have a Happy Monday!

PS-I had no idea you could shop online at BR Factory until I went to see if they had something similar to that dress! Mind blown!! Where have I been?!
