What are some cute, affordable workout clothes? Need to jump start my new year in new workout gear!
Karissa: For affordable workout clothes I love to look at TJ Maxx. They usually have a great selection of work out clothes that are really great quality! Nordstrom and Nordstrom Rack are also great I love their Zella and Nike collections!
Sam: My favorite place to shop for workout clothes is the 'we made too much' section at Lululemon. You can find some great steals, but make sure you know your size because it is final sale. I also love target for running clothes like these. If you sort by brand at Kohl's you can find some great finds.
I'm looking for some statement decor to style my shelves. Where is the best places to find some cheap larger pieces to decorate?
Sam: THRIFT STORE! Half of the pieces on my shelves are refurbished pieces from the thrift store. I love sticking to a theme like only looking for gold pieces or large scale pieces that I can paint gold. If I don't find it at the thrift store, then I am usually shopping at Target (under $25 home accents). The best rule of thumb is to decorate in sets of 3 on shelves. Have one sculptural piece like a plant, one horizontal piece like a book, and one vertical piece like art leaned against the wall or a vase.
Karissa: I agree with Sam-- thrift stores can have great things! I also usually find things at Target, Home Good, and World Market! I also try and refurbish things around my house that may be sitting around collecting dust and using them in different places!
Where are the best places to buy jeans at a reasonable price?
Karissa: I've been loving Abercrombie jeans lately, I usually wait until they go on sale and that makes them super inexpensive! I also think that Express has a great selection of jeans that are great quality and are pretty reasonably priced if you wait until they're on sale! I have also had great luck at Von Maur finding high quality designer jeans heavily discounted (I love that store).
Sam: I love to use the LiketoKnowit app to see where all my favorite bloggers are buying their jeans and then shop around for the best price! I don't know about you, but I struggle to pick out jeans just from seeing them on the online models! I have been seeing the Levi's 501 Skinny everywhere and knew I wanted to buy but I searched around for the best price and Nordstrom price matched Levi's for $50. Nordstrom's customer service and free shipping and returns policy makes them my favorite place to buy jeans. Express is a close second because their jeans are so comfortable and if you just wait a week or so their jeans will go on sale!
