Do you love shopping? I love online shopping. Shopping in stores can be overwhelming because of crowds, never having your size and those awful changing room mirrors and lighting. But I love to shop and I love new things. It sounds materialistic, but how fun is it to buy things for you kids and see them all dressed up and cute as ever in said items?
This month The Blended Blog Asks is all about shopping and I can't wait to read everyone's answers because I love finding new places to shop!
1. Top 3 Shops? Vici, Nordstrom and Amazon (because they have pretty much everything).
2. Where is the majority of your shopping done - in-store or online? Well I said it up top...online. It is so much easier to shop online, have it delierved to my house, try it on, and decide there. It is even better when they have free shipping and returns.
3. What's your favorite thing to shop for? Clothes. Any and all clothes. For my husband, he would say shoes. He has a lot of shoes and loves shoes. And my girls are taking after him in that aspect.
4. What do you just HATE shopping for? Bathing suits. I am too self conscious and as I said above, the store mirrors being all the ugly out.
5. What's your most favorite thing you've ever bought? I would say our wedding bands because the meaning behind them. Otherwise, I would go with my Chanel earrings.
6. Do you prefer shopping alone or with others? Depends on my mood. I would mostly say with others, so they can give me an opinion on how something looks. But other times they just linger too long in a store and I end up with things that I don't need.
7. Best bargain? I guess I would just say buying everything on sale. I always look for my jeans and any higher priced items on sale. I rarely buy full price.
8. Thrift store shopping: yes or no? I only shop at thrift stores for vintage furniture and costumes.
9. Best cities for shopping? NYC, LA, Vegas
10. Who's your style or fashion icon? I don't really have one. But if I had to pick a blogger that I follow for fashion advice and style, it would be Cristin Cooper. She is amazing. She has a real figure and I feel like she is tells it like it is.
Those it be my two favorite cities for shopping as well. I came back with so much stuff. That is so sweet about your wedding bands. I hope you have a marvelous Monday!
ReplyDeleteYou just have to shop when you can!!! I hope you have a great week too!
DeleteOnline shopping has just killed my love to shop these days. I need to look at Vici and yes to Cristin Cooper!
ReplyDeleteIt has killed my love for shopping too, but sometimes it is more convenient.
DeleteOh fun! I love shopping and always have. I've never heard of Vici... I'll have to check it out! Maybe I'll fill this out for tomorrow's post (late, as usual, haha). Have a great Monday!
ReplyDeleteHaha. Better late than never. You need to check out Vici!
DeleteI haven't heard of Vici. I was thinking Vegas was good for shopping too!
ReplyDeleteIt is great for shopping and they have a huge outlet mall.
DeleteOh yes, Vegas does have some great shopping!! I have such a love/hate relationship with online shopping. It's good and bad. As a retail worker, it literally is killing in-store shopping but I get why people like it so much. My store is turning into return central, people are only coming in to return nothing else. The future of shopping is totally changing.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of Vici, need to check that out. I love going shopping in NYC!
ReplyDeleteI go back and forth with online and in-store shopping. Sometimes I like trying things on when I'm in the mood because then I don't have to drop stuff off at the post office lol. I'm with you on never paying full price for pricer items like nice jeans!

I hate going to the post office too. That is always an awful part about online shopping.
DeleteI have always been curious about VICI! Their return policy scares me, but you may have just convinced me to give it a go!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you - really dislike shopping for bathing suits! My favorite thing is buying something I really want on sale! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteI love a good sale too!!!
DeleteI'm with you! I love shopping online for pretty much anything and everything! But I'm different in the fact that I much prefer shopping alone haha
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of VICI but I will have to check them out.
ReplyDeleteThey are a great company online!!!
DeleteI hadn't heard of Vici - thanks for the new recommendation. Thanks for linking up with Hello Monday! Tanya - The Other Side of the Road
ReplyDeleteI tend to avoid buying clothes online, though I have done it. I'd much rather try things on in the store so I know it fits/looks okay. Other than that, I like online shopping for the convenience and the deals.

I do like trying on things in stores, but I feel like I always look awful there. Ha.
DeleteMy top three shopping sites are Amazon, Amazon, and Amazon. Lol. I love Amazon so much! There is nothing they don't have!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you!
DeleteI hate shopping for bathing suits as well! It's the worst!
ReplyDeleteThe absolute worst!
DeleteI hate swimsuit shopping. It’s the worst. I have to try everything on, I prefer shopping in stores for clothes but do most other shopping online. I love Nordstrom! And I’m with you, I buy most everything on sale.
