It was on my list to stop at but by the time I got there I was so tired of trying on clothes I couldn't bear to wander through. Next time I will go there first! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping#post-73998 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 21:34:38 +0000 chewyspaghetti 73998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It was a sanity break that I sorely needed! You gals are right about being able to check the fits of things, even if I'm not buying. I have been wanting to do just that for some time, now. With all of the weight loss, I'm not sure what fits and what doesn't- or what sizes. I have a better idea now, and I know that H &#38; M is a good bet for me when I am looking in the future. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping#post-73995 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 20:56:55 +0000 marianne 73995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Before kids I would often go shopping and not buy anything. I still found it useful because it gave me an idea of the fit and offerings in different stores, like Kristen says. Unfortunately, now I rarely get to go, so if I don't buy anything it feels like a wasted opportunity. I do some shopping online, but I am not very proficient at it. I also noticed that I only go to a handful of stores now - I don't want to spend time on places that can be hit or miss.<br /> Sounds like you are pretty certain about the things you want to get, which is great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping#post-73941 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 11:10:39 +0000 Kristen 73941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sometimes a shopping trip can still be beneficial even if you don't end up buying anything; I had a similar experience this weekend when I hit 2 different malls. I tried on a lot of things at various stores, but ended up only getting some basics (black and brown pants, black vest, a couple of camis). That was okay, because I learned a lot about what sizes are right for me at each brand, and I experimented with some different shapes of pieces. So when I do my online ordering (which I prefer, and which usually has better coupons), I know what size to get! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping#post-73938 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 08:23:31 +0000 Louise 73938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sod's law i'm afraid. Whenever i have money i can rarely find anything but when i don't have cash and it has to go on the credit card i could spend a fortune! x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping#post-73934 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 04:42:18 +0000 chewyspaghetti 73934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I had a really rare chance to go shopping a) alone b) at two different malls with decent stores to choose from and c) with a little bit of pocket change to spare. I was so excited- I went into H &#38; M for the first time, checked out the sale at Banana Republic, and got a chance to look at the lipstick colors at The Body Shop (which I've been wanting to do for a while). I can't believe it, but I came home empty handed! What I really wanted was a linen vest that Old Navy has online (but didn't have in the store), and a denim pencil skirt that they have on sale online, but is not marked down in the store. I may just have to order them! </p>
