So - I try to be pretty frugal. Save more - that’s generally my theory. Although I do have my favorite brands (I really think everyone does) that I gravitate toward when it’s time to renew the closet. Different brands for different types of items, but one all-time favorite is J.Crew. And like any good mother, I’m trying to brainwash my kids early into J.Crew by supplying them with super-soft, fun t-shirts (for the son) and ridiculously cute fluffy skirts and dresses (for the daughter).
Well, it’s that time again. The entire family needed some specific items & like a good provider (one with VERY little time to shop) - I went online, bought and had them delivered.
Not all things worked out. Sadly the oversized straw hat for ultimate sun protection, flopped (literally!). So, that’s a return. HAPPY though, that when I intentionally bought two different sizes in white jeans (replacement pair - much needed) - the SMALLER size worked best!!! Also, the new bikini just absolutely ROCKS. (Thank you Bootcamp workouts and my super strict trainer, Michelle!!!)
Honestly, I think that everyone has a moment when they just need a couple of new items. In our case, we’re planning for an upcoming family vacation - and between all of the work preparations, I realized that the family needed some prep work as well.
Are we even close to ready yet? NO. But these new items are definitely getting me excited about going. Added that bounce in my step as I left for work today.
