Right now I own two pairs of heels that have lost the bottom part of the actual heel and a few pairs of pants whose bottom seams have unraveled and need to be hemmed. And, my favorite pair of jeans are on the brink of unwearable. This weekend, as I gathered all of the clothing that needs to be taken to a tailor, it hit me that I could stand a little spree.
I am going to go ahead and say that the Wrentham Outlets in Wrentham, Ma are a destination for many New Englanders, at least those in search of revamping their wardrobes at a discount – like me. Since I was in high school, I have viewed the outlets as a place flocked to by people all over Massachusetts and Rhode Island. While the outlets are a hike for many, the amount of stores and the amount of discounts make it worth a whole day trip.
This Sunday I had a productive day. Among other things, I walked away with an adorable dress from Banana Republic.
And a cute necklace from Ann Taylor that was under 5 dollars.
That wasn’t the only place where I scored some fashionable new items this weekend. At the Boston BlogHer meetup on Saturday afternoon, which was hosted by Susan Getgood (who now has a travel blog!), I not only met some amazing and inspiring bloggers in person, I actually won a raffle! For the prize, I grabbed a gift that was brought by Megan of a girl must shop! It is an adorable necklace from Sentimental Silver.
At the meetup, I was also graced by the presence of so many other fabulous bloggers like Catnip and Coffee, Fairly Odd Mother, Momisodes, The Good Girl Gone Blog, The Coupon Goddes, Daddy Scratches, Meal Makeover Moms, Julia Does Boston, Fond of Snape, The rest of my life so far…, and the list goes on.
And here I am starting off the week, equipped with a newer wardrobe and best of all, new BlogHer buddies!
That dress and necklace combo is so pretty (and fierce!)
i never get emails about when blogher is coming into town

Sounds like you had a great time at the BlogHer meet up! I heard all about it and it sounds like a great time. Are you going to BlogHer in Chicago in July?

What an adorable dress! I love the outlets that are relatively close to my home to find stylish additions to my wardrobe for cheap.
Such cute things.
It was great seeing you again Susan!
