It's made for women with a couple rhinestones. Too bad it's all poly, but I didn't care. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629575 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 07:08:07 +0000 rabbit 1629575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't usually get inspired by stuff at the mall, I get inspired by stuff I see online and the trends posted here and then go to find the mall approximations with mixed results. &nbsp;Occasionally I run across an interesting shape or pattern though.</p> <p>I did see some Clover Canyon scuba tube skirts at Marshalls today. The print was like blue Delft floral met trompe l'oeil deconstructed brown cardboard box, very intriguing and highly weird.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629572 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 06:54:06 +0000 ma 1629572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Butter beer is so good, i cant wait to go back to Universal. I actually just heard of a bar close to me that serves butter beer (with alcohol).<br /> Too bad about the mall, if you get a chance...the millenia mall is very upscale (not good for buying but great for browsing) and the outlet mall is quite enormous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629553 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 05:27:26 +0000 catgirl 1629553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think butterbeer is only available in the park.</p> <p>Angie, what Lisa said. I did make a couple of online purchases that I love and will share, but overall the mall stuff looked very same old, same old in Palm Beach. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629542 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 04:48:20 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1629542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to hear I'm not missing out on anything either by not really shopping lately! <br />Butterbeer is totally new to me, and it sounds like something I should try. Yum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629516 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 04:06:15 +0000 Jaime 1629516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I would love to go into a Madewell, but the prices would probably make it an exploratory voyage only. Florida malls always overwhelm me (most of my experience is in SE Florida though). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629510 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 03:53:49 +0000 Aziraphale 1629510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just have to chime in to say that we got my kid one of those Hermione time turner necklaces from Hamley's in London in 2010 -- best trinket EVER! So cute. (Although if you wear it, the gold finish wears off). But still.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sorry you didn't find anything shopping. :-(&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629508 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 03:48:43 +0000 Anonymous 1629508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - you're shopping in a big city with a great flagship Nordstrom, bigger higher end department stores and where even BR and JCrew sound like they get the full assortment of higher end pieces. &nbsp;There is so much more where you are than where a lot of us have to shop -Americans and Canadians too ! &nbsp;Even our Club Monaco - which is a full-size store here in Wpg - is ho hum right now. &nbsp;Yuck - there is nothing of interest at retail in mid-market cities . Anything interesting I'm finding is at an indie store. &nbsp;Our BR store is full of cheaply made second-tier merchandise, and GAP is still uninteresting for anything other than jeans.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629484 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 02:45:41 +0000 Dee 1629484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've noticed a lot of boho/seventies style in stores lately, which isn't really catching not my interest. Do you think you're just not feeling the current trends? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629458 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 01:54:59 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1629458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry the mall was a bust, but for what it's worth, you rocked the hoodie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629452 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 01:37:14 +0000 Angie 1629452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HAHAHAHA.

I need to find some alternative lines to shop because big retail is not hitting any buttons for me lately. Fun about the necklace though!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629414 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 00:09:39 +0000 Kathleen 1629414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I for one approve 100% approve of your purchases. My ex-husband sent me the illustrated version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone for my birthday. I still wish I would have bought the time turner necklace at Universal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629407 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 23:51:47 +0000 catgirl 1629407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Butterbeer was yummy!&nbsp; Kind of like cream soda but not as fizzy and tasted like butterscotch.&nbsp; Probably would induce diabetes in large quantities but my DS didn't care. </p> <p>Glad I'm not alone.&nbsp; I wish I'd checked out some of the discount stores like TJ Maxx and the Rack instead...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629401 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 23:30:28 +0000 cloud9 1629401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally get what you say as I had a similar exp this weekend. I wanted some happy spring items. Instead all I see were dull depressing color palettes with nothing much in interesting sillouette either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629342 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 21:10:03 +0000 Liz 1629342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisap, I also was apparently meant to be much richer than I am.&nbsp;</p> <p>Butterbeers for the win.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629337 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 21:02:45 +0000 rachylou 1629337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, pickings seem slim in the actual stores. I guess my personal prob is I'm over minimalism. Another round of butterbeers? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629328 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 20:54:44 +0000 Anonymous 1629328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no idea what butterbeer is, but agree that anything is better than the current lack of fun in the mall shops. &nbsp;Shop indie &nbsp;There is nothing anywhere ringing my bell at the moment - including shoe stores. WHERE IS ALL THE GOOD STUFF? &nbsp;Oh, I know- on net-a-porter at $1000 for whatever it is I like that day. &nbsp;I was really meant to be much wealthier than I am, apparently . &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629318 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 20:34:18 +0000 deb 1629318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Butterbeer works!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629317 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 20:31:34 +0000 Anonymous 1629317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shame about the mall, but good on you for availing yourself of the Butterbeer :D</p> <p>Strange, but as I sew, I rarely look around actual shops. I browse new collections online, look through blogs and then let it all mix up in my head and order fabric to create my own looks.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629307 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 20:18:19 +0000 texstyle 1629307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't seen much online to tempt me either - which is a good thing as I've already added what I felt I needed for the season (new handbag, sunglasses, navy sandals and a new sleeveless tank). I never seem to find anything at Anthro - it's just not the right style for me I guess.It's kind of nice not feeling like I "need" something else though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629305 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 20:16:52 +0000 Nebraskim 1629305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is sometimes disappointing to get to a place with real retail and then not be very jazzed about what you find. We were in Indianapolis a couple weeks and ago and I dropped into a mall with a Nordstrom, a Sak's, etc. I did buy a workout skort at Athleta (we don't have one here in Lincoln NE) and a black down-filled jacket for 75 percent off at an Eddie Bauer (could not walk away from that sort of bargain), and some barware at Crate and Barrel. But otherwise, nothing was very interesting to me. My favorite store: A Tesla Auto store. But I didn't have a spare $100K lying around, so I passed on a purchase but I did sit in one. Very luxurious.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629299 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 20:07:19 +0000 Sara L. 1629299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How was the butterbeer?&nbsp; I can relate - I like Anthro but not their prices.&nbsp; Other than some new sandals and white cropped pants, I don't have much on my spring shopping list.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-nothing-at-the-mall-impressed-me#post-1629286 Mon, 14 Mar 2016 19:39:45 +0000 catgirl 1629286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I visited j. crew, Anthro, Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, and Madewell, as well as Kate Spade, Nordstrom and Macy's.&nbsp; I found Macy's way too chaotic, and Nordstrom was all familiar (though good to check out a lot of brands I like in person).&nbsp; The rest was pretty meh.&nbsp; I found a cute top at Anthro.&nbsp; Sadly, it was so overpriced ($70 for a flimsy&nbsp;long sleeved tee?) and sure to shrink (slubbed cotton).&nbsp; J. crew never fits me quite right.&nbsp; There was a great ink blue Chanel-ish moto at Ann Taylor that fit well, but I didn't feel the call.&nbsp; And everything else just didn't look that exciting.&nbsp; The patterned BR Sloans are cute but I can get those here.</p> <p>Still it was good to look and not feel that sense of FOMO living so far from retail.&nbsp; So my&nbsp;vacation purchases&nbsp;were limited to a Ravenclaw zip hoodie and Hermione's&nbsp;Time Turner necklace.&nbsp; We spent all the rest of our money on butterbeer.&nbsp; :)</p>
