Haul (clothing + accessories)

know I'm a few weeks overdue, but I decided to finally show you guys a few things I picked up while I was on vacation a couple of weeks ago. Nothing crazy, but I just love scoring good deals. I went outlet shopping in Washington with my sister-in-law and we hit up Seattle Premium Outlet, Norstrom Rack (near Alderwood Mall), and Alderwood Mall. I've been to Seattle Premium Outlet a couple of years ago, but that time I went with the husband. Let me just say that he is NOT a fun person to go shopping with. Whenever I go into a store he will tell me that he will be waiting outside. That drives me crazy because it makes my shopping experience not fun at all. Who likes feeling rushed when they are shopping??? This time around I was glad that I got to go with my sister-in-law. Her style is a bit different from mine, but nonetheless we had so much fun. She was shopping for bikinis and sun dresses for her trip to Jamaica and I was shopping more for comfortable, yet stylist clothes.

Here's what I picked up at Seattle Premium Outlet:

Banana Republic

I've been looking for a white wrap top for a long time. I think it looks so crisp and polished with dark wash jeans. I was elated when I found out that this top was 60% off. I ended up getting it for $20. Isn't that crazy???


Some people say Asians shouldn't wear yellow because of their yellow undertones, but I love wearing yellow! This top is a bit wrinkled, but it's so cute on. I love the fluttery sleeves. I think I got this for $20-$30?


I love this black skirt. It goes just above my knee and I love the waist detail- how it dips down to a slight point in the middle. It's very flattering on. Here's an OOTD photo I took of me wearing the skirt last week.




J Crew


I still haven't worn this headband yet. It's been raining every day so I don't feel like wearing this yet. It's super cute though!

I just love this coral peach belt. It looks great with skinny jeans and even to wear over a cardigan. A perfect Spring/Summer accessory.

Nordstrom Rack

I've been wanting a watch for a long time and almost bought a rose gold Michael Kors watch during Christmas, but I knew I couldn't pass this Anne Klein watch up when I saw it. It was a great deal at $25! It's a lot smaller than the Michael Kors watch that everyone has, but I like it. It's simple and classic.



I also picked up a pair of J Brand skinny jeans. I love finding great deals and this one was a steal at $50. I just love shopping in the States... I wore these jeans today. They are becoming one of my favourite jeans to wear.



Nordstrom


My sister-in-law urged me to buy this Bobeau sweater. She bought one in taupe and she said it was like wearing a blanket without looking like you do. I'm glad I got it because it was on sale for $40. I wish I got it in other colours...
Here's a couple of photos of me wearing the sweater. Trust me, it looks much better in person.



The rest of the stuff were stuff I picked up in Vancouver

H & M


I don't know what it is with me and flowers, but I'm obsessed! These hair pins are so cute. I wore it this past Sunday and I loved it.



I love this floral scarf. I get a ton of compliments every time I wear it. It was a steal at $15.
I've worn this scarf numerous times already. See below!

And... these are the Dolly Wink liquid eyeliner that I got in Aberdeen Centre. I tried it a few times and I like it, but my go-to liquid eyeliner is still the Sephora brand eyeliner. It's AMAZING! It's the blackest eyeliner I've ever tried and it dries instantly. If you haven't tried it you must. The only negative thing about that is that you need a steady hand. It's not very forgiving because the black is so intense.

On another note, I wanted to show you guys my beautiful Hermes scarf that I picked up at an Hermes sample sale 2 weeks ago.

The photos don't do this scarf justice! It's just gorgeous. I should have picked up more, but even with the 50% discount it was still $220... Next time I go I will pick up more.

Apparently there are thousands of ways to tie a scarf. I'm trying out different techniques.

I wore this scarf a couple of days ago just draped casually around my neck.

Well, that's it! Sorry for the photo heavy post, but I've bee so busy at work that I haven't had time to update.
