Happy Friday, everyone!
How was your week? Is it just me or did this week feel like it went by slowly?
I mentioned way back that I bought some stuff from Gap and a little store called Gossip - here are the pictures now. ;) So really, this isn't very recent, but I would still like to share them with you.
A few months back, I told my Mom that I wanted to get shirts to wear for school. You know, for those days when you just want to wear jeans and a shirt? So we went to Forever21 (of course, haha!), but they didn't really have many shirts. I was just about to give up - good thing we decided to check the Gap store. :D
On the day we went there, there was a sale going on!
These two were originally $24.50 ---> reduced to $10!
This V-neck shirt is originally $16.50 ---> reduced to $10!
Then we went to a store called Gossip - there's one in Santa Barbara, the other one is in Pasadena.
They have really cute and affordable items - clothes, shoes, bags, accessories. If you ever find yourself in Santa Barbara and Pasadena, definitely check this store out. :)
I got these:
These are $5.99 each.
During the summer, I wore them with shorts or sometimes jeans. They are also long enough to wear with leggings or tights - just throw on a blazer and a scarf. :D
Oh, and another NOTD:
Sinful Colors -- Forget Now
I hate how I always forget to take pictures right after I paint my nails a new color, so I never get a photo of nicely painted nails, haha. ;)
More shopping posts soon! :D
Have a wonderful weekend!

ReplyDeleteHi Mimi! I like the first top from Gap, the one with the...was it a zipper on the back? I don't have a 20/20 haha. Black and Grey yey! And the V-neck...I think I have that one, in exact same color! Gap shirts are very comfy I love them!
ReplyDeleteThis week was excruciatingly slow! Great basic tops!
ReplyDeleteMelanie@UnravelledThreads
super cute basics !
ReplyDeleteyou know what would look cute with it ? a big bow brooch, you can hang it around the neck of a basic top and it makes it look fabulous :)
Great staples Mimi!
ReplyDeletegreat finds!
ReplyDeleteGap always has great basic tops! Cute nail polish colour!
ReplyDeleteThose tanks are pretty and it's great that you can wear them with leggings! I often struggle to find a decent top to pair with my leggings -_-
ReplyDeletei love sales, these are great for layering!

ReplyDeleteHi there! thanks for the follow :) I will have to look for that Gossip store next time I am in PAsadena. I just had a shopping trip to JCREW (in pasadena) and I got so lucky with great sales.
ReplyDeleteLike you I have been really into nail polish this season.. Loving the Sally Hansen manicure in a bottle in Commander in Chic and also obsessed with the taupes.
Have a great weekend!
Love everything! Have you seen the latest controversy with the GAP's new logo?
ReplyDeleteGreat pieces! Love the nail polish too! Have a great weekend xoxo
ReplyDeleteCute, I really like the tank tops with the adorable pocket. I really like the Gap, most of the time! I was quite upset when they took it out of the mall here.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds, Mimi!:D $10?!

oh, don't you just love going shopping on sale day?you get good deals on stuff you will not usually buy on its regular price. :p
ReplyDeleteI really like the tops you got. They're simple pieces, but you can layer and mix them with a lot of other things to either dress it up or down. =]
ReplyDeleteI love that you're all about bargains - it's right up my alley. Stop by sometime - I'm all about mixing designer with great vintage/thrift finds, as seen here, here, here, and here.
