Online Shopping!! {Fave Stores}

Day 7 of Blogtember: Wednesday, September 11: Share links to your favorite online shops, preferably with a few photos of your favorite items in each shop.
I love shopping, let me just say that. But... I'm not a big online shopper. I would rather go to the mall, or store and physically try on the clothes before buying. Yes sometimes the stores are packed with craziness especially when its holiday season or there is a sale.  But I still like to go to the mall, gather a pile of clothes and try them on choosing which one fit and which don't. I have a particular body type, so the need for me to try them on is important. 

Some say that when you shop online you can have your private fitting room in your closed room and be able to try them out in privacy rather than surrounded my stalls of fitting rooms. 

Although I will stick with my preference of physical shopping, here are some of my favorite places to shop

Old Navy: oldnavy.com
I get allll my jeans from here!! I feel like they have my size without being too overpriced. And I love them!! P.s They have an online sale 15% of total and today is the last day, dont miss out!!
The SweetHeart Jeans are my to-go style: it has a stretchy feel for my curvier ladies. I also love the Flirt!! I've always wanted to grab a pair of Rockstar Jeans (never find my size) but these jeans have spunky colors and designs, like these. Maybe I will need to go online shopping for these gems!!

Forever 21: forever21.com
I think I've always loved Forever. When I was in high school I thought Forever was too cool for me but secretly wanted to change my wardrobe to look like the inside of the store. It wasn't until I went to college, and stepped out of my comfort zone that I stepped inside Forever. And then with their addition with their plus size section, I fell in love with it more!!! P.S - 21% off sale on now!!!
Here are some of the things I am eyeing right now!!
Cobalt blue is in for fall, find these here {1} {2} {3

Top Ten .. must haves for fall

Summer is ending, and Fall is coming. Although we still have some time to wear our flip flops, and our summery dresses, we have to start shopping for the fall. Here are some of my top haves for the fall (at the bottoms you will find the inspiration style posts that inspired me to write this).

Studs - 

Bring out your inner rebel girl and put some studs in your life. Studded jacket, studded leggings, studded handbag.

Booties -

Who doesn't love shoes? Add some booties to your wardrobe, and play them up or play them down.

Fashion in the Office

Seeing that I had an interview today I decided to write a quick post on Interview and Working outfits.

I get super nervous about interviews but I look forward to outfits the most. lol. Head over to Fab5Adventures to read my post on my interview and some interview tips, here.

But on this post we will talk about some fashion. Like I mention I love getting dressed up. I loved adding new pieces to my closet even if its just on my Pinterest closet. I feel that it is really important to look good when going to an interview. It is when your future employer will get a first impression from you, and of course we all want to show an intelligent, fashionable person.

This is what I wore this morning. I felt that this position was on the laid back side, and decided not to wear a suit, but rather a nice salmon/pink button down blouse at Old Navy, with some grey jeans that I bought at Forever21 (the color makes it more professional than regular scenes) and some low nude heels that I got at Payless.



When choosing outfits to wear, we have to keep in mind what kind of job we are interviewing for.
Whether we need to wear a two piece suit, or whether we can wear some nice dress pants with a cute blouse, or jeans or blazer. Think whether the job is more creative so you can play with some color like a colored blazer, or whether is more professional/executive where you can use color as your accents in accessories.

Check this website, Fashion Club. They have a cool article on how to pair up a simple piece and wear it based on the kind of job. And boys there are some types on here too.

Also check out my pinterest boards to get some ideas. :
