Shopping Lately

I've been shopping sooooo much lately.. probably to subconsciously hit minimum spends on some credit cards I just opened in my goal to fly first class someday. I've been making so many purchases from Old Navy that I feel like I should open a credit card there but I know this is just a phase.. or is it?

Aside from Old Navy, I also shopped the Macy's VIP 30% off sale when it was going on and got this jacket I love! I really liked the styles from INC but the quality and fit just wasn't as nice as this was.

I also shopped Chriselle x J.O.A.'s collection from Nordstrom and of the three things I did try, I only liked this Chriselle x J.O.A. Blazer Minidress, though it is a bit long and roomy in the sleeves. Love that you can wear it as a dress or blazer. :)

Lastly, I noticed multiple coworkers wearing variations of Uniqlo's Waffle Crewneck shirts in long sleeves and short sleeves so I couldn't help going to check them out, thinking I'd like one in White. However, upon trying it on, the XS is definitely not flattering on me though maybe the XXS would be. It's only available online and I couldn't spend the minimum for free shipping so I decided to pass. While in stores though, I did try on a bunch of other things and loved the 3D Cotton Boat Neck Sweater and 2-Way Ribbed Half-Sleeve T-Shirt.

    I feel like I've been shopping for hours lately. I've been going to stores and buying things I don't need and will never use. I just keep buying stuff because it makes Pay To Do Coursework me feel good, or because I want to hit my minimum spends on credit cards, but I know it's not helping. I've been doing this for so long that I have a hard time putting down the shopping cart now. It's time to stop and take a break from the shopping and start taking care of myself again.

February Haul + Breakfast Bagel Strata Recipe

Image
The very last item I picked up from H&M that broke the buy and return cycle was a $2 striped tee that I thought would be a nice basic to have - I can't wait until the day I can have a bigger closet so I can actually see all the pieces I own - I might end up finding a few more basic stripes tees but when I picked it up, I didn't think I had one. :) I was browsing Insta Stories and came across some cute Target finds so made a large purchase at 3AM when I was up from baby B: Left: Denim Trucker Jacket in XS Light Acid Wash .

Hermes Toolbox 20 Review!

Image
A long time ago, I used to covet the Hermes Birkin bag, as I'm sure many have since it's so elusive. Since then, I switched over to pine after the Hermes Kelly bag instead, after I saw it on Wendy Nguyen from Wendy's Lookbook here . She's a fellow petite and it just looked so nice on her! Over time though, and especially after baby A, I see how such a bag is definitely not practical for me and if I were to spend a small fortune on a bag, I'd want one that I would actually use more often. The Kelly has a thin strap and is quite structured, which is what I like about it, but in reality is too classy for my weekends. It wasn't until I went to Athens, posted about here , that I tried on the Hermes Toolbox 20 and fell for it. It was in a beautiful royal blue color but I already have a Celine in that same color (seen here ) but that bright color and how it hung on me were the reasons I really liked it so much. I realized I wouldn't love the bag in a beige or deep

Canada Goose: Fusion Fit Reviews

Image
I'm finally done with exhausting all the options of Canada Goose coats and have to say that the Fusion Fit is definitely made to perfectly fit petites. Out of the three that I tried on, the Rossclair , Shelburne , and Trillium , they all have the perfect sleeve length but the hoods are all still too big in proportion and cover my whole face when worn. The Canada Goose Rossclair Parka Fusion Fit definitely fits much better than the normal Rossclair as shown here . I still like this Military Green color the best along with Black and like these large buttons better than the small loop ones on the Kensington but still prefer the ease of snap buttons to these. Canada Goose Shelburne Parka Fusion Fit in XXS Graphite The Canada Goose Shelburne Parka Fusion Fit is the only one of the three that does not have an adjustable bungee cord at the inner waist so the shape of this one is much more boxy. The sleeves of this one are also a bit longer than the others, though still much be
