They had lots of colors??? I am trying to avoid shopping but if I know it's there I may stop by. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-188432 Fri, 23 Jul 2010 01:52:51 +0000 April 188432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So funny, Sveta -- I had the same thought when I was there yesterday: "I am so spoiled by seeing all the NAS items that nothing looks very appealing." </p> <p>No silk tunics at your H&amp;M? Give it a week or so -- there were so many in the store I was in that it seemed like they may have just arrived. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-188409 Fri, 23 Jul 2010 01:20:56 +0000 Sveta 188409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just went to our H&amp;M today and nothing caught my eye. Do US and Canadian stores have different things? Is it because i live in a smaller city? Or just after shopping NAS last week everything looks so shabby and boring??? or maybe I just cannot shop after work on an empty stomach? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-188388 Fri, 23 Jul 2010 01:00:33 +0000 April 188388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He needs to realize that the options are not "shopping the Zara sale vs. not shopping at all", but "shopping the Zara sale vs. shopping someplace else at full price." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-188381 Fri, 23 Jul 2010 00:55:36 +0000 bj1111 188381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>right...</p> <p>"but, i'm SAVING money, honey" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-188379 Fri, 23 Jul 2010 00:54:45 +0000 April 188379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BJ -- the prices I saw were very, very low.

I don't recall the last time I looked into H&amp;M. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-187934 Thu, 22 Jul 2010 10:27:43 +0000 April 187934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I actually tried on a silk tunic, and it was pretty long on me. I don't have your height, but it actually made me wonder whether it was being sold as a dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-187750 Thu, 22 Jul 2010 02:45:18 +0000 crazyone 187750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I hope I didn't mean to dissuade you from wearing skinnies! It's just that those really looked more like jeggings to me. I think you could definitely wear a shorter top with those jeans if they stretch out even just a little bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-187748 Thu, 22 Jul 2010 02:39:50 +0000 Sveta 187748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>April, good to know about tunics in H&amp;M. I need to check them out. I am on the major lookout for tunics as I do not feel comfortable wearing skinnies without my upper thigh coverage I just hope they are long enough for my height... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/window-shopping-adventure-rundown-of-stores#post-187720 Thu, 22 Jul 2010 02:14:31 +0000 April 187720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had some extra time before an appointment today, and roamed around some stores not planning to buy anything. (Okay, I bought a necklace, but nothing else.) Here's what I saw:</p> <p>Club Monaco: Snore. Really, this visit made me -- the dedicated neutrals-lover -- understand why people get so bored without color. Black, white, gray. Black, white, gray. Lather, rinse, repeat... </p> <p>Talbots: Saw some of <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-august-talbots-catalog">the nice new things BethW was talking about</a>. They have gotten in new warm-weather and transitional items (as opposed to the leather jackets and boots we've all been obsessing over with NAS). Fell off the wagon and bought a necklace from the steep-discount sale items. Refuse to feel guilty.</p> <p>Zara: MAJOR sale going on. Ridiculous discounts. Anyone with skinny arms looking for a pleather jacket like <a href="http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/Pleather%20Zara%20jacket/IMG_0593.jpg">the one I got last spring</a>, this is your moment.</p> <p>H&amp;M: Silk tunics in earthy colors. I'm very focused on tunics after seeing Angie's SIL Keri in her cool black-on-black outfit from yesterday's blog post! Also, amazingly, they still had a LOT of the very drape-y, open-front cardigans like <a href="http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/Challenge%20from%20Legacy%20of%20Pearl/IMG_0639.jpg">this one</a> that I got last spring. Unusual for H&amp;M to keep things in stock that long. Must mean these are extremely, wildly popular, and that I am no longer cool for having one. Or two. </p>
