It's Back to School tomorrow for me... ugh, so depressing! Labor Day has officially become my most dreaded holiday as it marks the end of summer. However, to soften the blow, I did some shopping -- which always cheers me up! Luckily Labor Day offers great sales. I started my day at J. Crew, where all sale items are an extra 30 off. That is always a sale too good to pass up. Here is what I bought:
The No. 2 Pencil (ha! as if I needed another) in Deck Stripe was on my wish list for a while. I also bought two pairs of 5 inch Chino Shorts in Neon Azalea and Modern Red. Lastly, I picked up the polka dot scarf in burgundy/pink.
I also bought this striped v-neck top at The Limited for 40 off. I don't often shop at this store but I really ought to check it out more often. Great items and great sales.
Lastly, I was very excited to pick up a dozen of these Gerbera Daisy faux flower stems from Pier One for just $2.38 each! They look perfect in my dining room vase and are an amazing way to say goodbye to summer and hello to autumn!
I totally understand your thinking about Labor Day. I hope your first day goes well, and congrats on your shopping finds! Having a closet full of cute clothes helps to soften the blow. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the well wishes --- the year is off to a crazy start but I am trying to stay positive. Clothes help to cheer me up!
ReplyDeleteAhhh, retail therapy...yep, it always helps! :o) You're going to love the chino shorts...I like the 5" inseam too. I have the modern red from last year...they were one of my best purchases last summer. and I just picked up the vivid lime with the last promo.
ReplyDeleteI've definitely gotten some mileage out of them already!
