Fourth of July Weekend: Part 1

I have had the best Fourth of July Weekend I think there ever was. I am so pleased and thankful for how everything turned out. I had so much fun that I can't contain it into one post! The follow up will be posted tomorrow.

Saturday:

Saturday we went out for the day. We had lots of shopping to do! We first drove through Market Commons and ended up walking through a very disappointing Italian festival. It was more of a vender market with pizza. While we were there we decided to eat out at Travinia's. It was as usual delicious.

After that we went shopping at the mall!

Our first stop was at Men's Warehouse where we got Brian's suits. He had a $100 gift card and needed more work shirts. They had an amazing sale and they let us use the gift card (we got the gift card because we spent X amount so it wasn't a gift card gift card) which was awesome. We ended up getting 4 polo shirts and a t-shirt! They didn't have 2 of the shirts in his size and they let us order them but keep them at the same price as the others! It was awesome! Men's Warehouse is still our go to store for Brian.

Our next stop was Old Navy. My mom had gotten me a dress that didn't work well with my body and I had returned it from a sister company of Old Navy. I chose to get a gift card and that gift card is good at any of the Gap companies and I thought of Old Navy first. I love Old Navy prices but I often don't love their clothes on me. I was very successful on Saturday! I had $90 dollars and I got 3 polo's, 2 button downs and 1 dressy tank top! I even had $15 left over and I used that to order a tank from the Gap online to go with one of my Old Navy shirts.

Our final stop was Dressbarn from me. One of my new friends at work has several cute dresses from there and I was dying to see for myself. I had found 4 online that I loved and wanted to see if they had them in the store. They didn't but they had 4 more that I fell in love with. I got the 4 dresses and 2 shrugs in the store and the 4 dresses and 2 shrugs online! They are so cute! They all fit beautifully and I just love them! I definitely do not have the issue of not having clothes for work! And I finally feel like I have clothes that I like, can afford and is the style that is appropriate for the activities I am doing. Dressbarn is my go to store! I will do a post modelling my new outfits when everything comes in.

Sunday:

This was a typical Sunday. I watched TV (skipped Caroline's as she was busy) and hung out. Brian played his games.

Come back tomorrow to see part 2 :)
