American Eagle & Aerie’s Fall Fashion Forecast Looks Bright

Last week American Eagle & Aerie gave me a sneak peek into their Fall 2012 collection and it is simply gorgeous. Perfect bright colors and floral patterns which are easy to mix and match. American Eagle is a great place for you and your teenagers to shop, consider it a bonding experience. There is something for everyone. American Eagle has the perfect balance of being youthful, yet put together for all ages.

I’m in love with the bursts of color, the totes, the flats & the idea of being comfortable with their Aerie line.  Before you know it you’ll be looking forward to fall fashion! Here are a few of my favorites:

Colored Denim for everyone!

Everything from fun graphic t-shirts to button up plaids numbers. 77Kids offers a great amount of variety for both boys and girls and getting a look at Fall 2012 collections is a great way to predict and confirm the trends we’ll be seeing lots of next season.

Fashion Friday: For the Love of J.Crew CrewCuts collections

Oh my! The cuteness, adorable and seemingly still cool factor runs high at Crewcuts, J.Crew’s store for kids.

Here’s a few snapshots of some of my favorite finds while we were shopping at the Tanger Outlets J.Crew store in Lancaster, PA- which also dedicates a portion of the shop to Crewcuts.

Kenzie fell in love with everything. Playful dresses, tees, coordinating outfits for families, and sparkly fun headbands to match EVERY outfit. And yes I’m equally obsessed. The price tags were at a significant discount compared to regular in-store or catalog prices since we were at Tanger Outlets too, however, I still consider J.Crew more “designer” so you’ll need to be mindful about how much you buy so you don’t go over your budget.

Fashion Friday: For the Love of H & M

I’m obsessed with H&M right now. Awesome fashion at prices that just can’t be beat which my wallet adores!

I picked up this adorable top for myself at H&M this week. It looks great with jeans, capris, and even white pants. I love that I can wear it casually or even dress it up if need be for a date night or business function.

And the best part? It was only $12.95! That’s a regular price too – not a super sale or anything.

Here’s a quick snapshot of me in my new favorite top for spring.

Tanger Outlets Shopping Spree Galore!

Check out our shopping haul video from the Tanger Outlets. We scored some MAJOR fashion finds at fantastic savings too when we hit Amish country in Lancaster County last week for a major shopping spree. The kids and even Nana accompanied me on this adventure.

Everyone loved shopping and Kenzie is already a natural fashionista.

She was eyeing the Coach purses just like her Mama! Here’s a few of Kenzie’s and my favorites! Don’t you love the new spring styles at Coach?

I feel totally set for spring with a few new hot seasonal picks as you’ll see in my video. My favorite is the brand new Coach Purse – in a styling white which is a perfect accessory for my Spring& Summer fashions. We also snatched up new spring fashions at major bargains at Banana Republic, Gap, and Izod. I’m set with short white shorts from Banana Republic, bright orange tops from the Gap and my Mom will be golfing in style in her new Izod golf skirt!

Here we are at Gap snatching up their $14.99 Cardigans – a special for the day – every color cardigan was only $14.99. It seemed the biggest ways to save were finding the “specials” and if possible combining them with a Tanger Outlet coupon for 20% off which we were able to do at Gap, Banana Republic, and Izod. Woohoo!

Gap Is Back

The past few seasons Gap had fallen off my fashion radar I didn’t even bother to stop in and look anymore. It saddened me because they were my go to for my basics. Well, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this dress –  the Pintucked Print Shirt Dress-  in the window last week. I just had to have it! Isn’t it gorgeous?

I think their spring/summer line is very much on point. I purchased this dress below and I love anything that resembles a Pucci print!

This dress can be worn with a wedge or sandals. Even put a belt with it. Or go completely casual and throw it over your bathing suit. Very light and airy. Happy to say Gap is back on my radar, I mean who doesn’t love a comeback?!

Tips on Sizing at the Gap:

Go down a size or you’ll get lost in this dress!

Please note this dress isn’t currently available online in this pattern so try your local Gap.

Also check out all the Sweet Deals that Gap has going on – think  40% off until Sunday.

Wait til you see the other goodies from Gap I’ll be covering….. I have a wish list!

Here’s Kyle absolutely adoring the shirt & tie combo he found – prices are fabulous too as this was only $14.95 before my 20% off too!

And of course Kenzie was happy to buy just about everything in the store! She had a tough time deciding on her picks as everything was so adorable, trendy, and feminine – perfect for a 6 year old girl instead of those “punky” looking clothes some shops try to push to our little ones.

Clos-ette Too Hangers: Time For An Overhaul and Coupon Code

Calling all fashionistas! Yes, hangers are important……..

I’ve never been one to buy into the hype of expensive hangers and whatnot. Well, I have to say I’m pleasantly surprised with my new Clos-ette Too hangers. I was skeptical at first but wow what a difference a hanger makes. Now with The Signature Shirt Hanger I have no more hanger marks on my shirts and I have more space.

I’m in the process of a complete overhaul of the closet with these hangers. They come in 9 festive colors, I of course opted for the pink.  They come in packs of 10 for $14.00. Right now they are offering 20% off with promo code SPRINGBREAK20. With six different types of hangers who knew there was such a hanger for all your garments. I have started out with the The Signature Shirt Hanger but have a feeling I will broaden my with horizons with the clips and pant hangers. And that’s not all, they have all types of organizing goodies. Check it out at www.clos-ettetoo.com for their complete hanger collection and great organizing tips.
