Spring at Ann Taylor Loft

So, after months of turning my eyes from shopping, I let myself go back to pick up some essentials. I made sure to only stop in a few stores: Anthropologie, Gap, Banana Republic, and Ann Taylor Loft.

I had a coupon for 30% off at Gap/BR, but when I spotted a sign for 30% off tees at ATL and tees were what I was shopping for, I took a looksie. I shopping specifically for tees for work and ATL has a more professional feel to it than Gap and is more affordable than BR.

As for Anthro, I only wanted to shop there for some plateware. :)

Anywho, Ann Taylor Loft had such cute stuff today! It reminded me a bit of J Crew from last year, but I don't care...I loved it! I wanted to buy a couple dresses, some cardigans, some scarves, but I kept myself to what I had gone there for - tees.

I need tees so I can layer them for work. Here's what I got:

Pink tee ~$20, white long sleeve T on sale $12.99, gray sweater (machine washable!) $20


Gray decorative T ~$24, white T ~$20



I liked how this pink (and the white) Ts have a ruffly neckline - decorative edges look nice under layers of cardigans and sweaters.


This decorative tee has a neat necklace and fun pattern down the front, plus it's machine washable/dryable.


Even this tie-neck sweater is machine washable. I love the muted gray. It goes with the pale pink/nude look that seems to be popular now.

Anywho, don't think I'll be shopping much any time soon, but here are some basics to keep me going. Meanwhile, the rest of my money will go towards our new house, renovations, and all that jazz.

What have you purchased lately?
