Black Friday 2013

I'm not sure why it took so long for me to post this since I drafted it months ago o_O I think it was only missing the photos. But anyways..

This year I continued my tradition of going to Wrentham Premium Outlets for Black Friday during their Midnight Madness. I left the house around 10:00PM or so, and I think I stayed awake the whole ride there. We didn't get there until around 1:00PM or so.. in the meantime I rewatched The Hunger Games so I can watch Catching Fire properly. 

Anyways.. the first stop was Theory. I caved in and ended up buying the Gabe B and matching Max C. I'm not totally satisfied with the purchase because I'm not sure if it was a good deal or not. It was 30% off the marked price, but that was about it. Last year, I got a super super good deal, but I might've gotten lucky. But if it wasn't luck...then I should've just held out. 

There wasn't anything else that I specifically look for. I mostly ended up getting sweaters and such. The guys actually finished shopping like two hours earlier than the girls, so.. T_T;;;;; 
Won't bore you with the details so here's the goodies from the night! The bag is for my mom, I like like it though, but I think she would like it more. We went to Natick afterwards and dimsum for breakfast to finish off. I got back around 11. Silly boys continued to shop more afterwards too wtf.

Overall, I don't think everything was that great of a deal o_O Like any other sale imo. But I've been wanting new clothes and it's not like the prices were bad lol.

Anyways, until next time! Hopefully it won't be super outdated like this one ^^;;

Black Friday Shopping Pt. 2

Here's part two of Black Friday. Took a while, but yeah...
Theory: Juin | Rue21: Hello Kitty Tee

Theory was giving out gifts for the first hundred purchases. Women get a tee and men got either a tie or a bow. It's appalling that the shirt retails for $75...it's really soft though @__@ I also bought a matching shirt with a friend, who tagged along. 

Our last stop at the outlets was Swarovski. I came out with two things thanks to the wonderful boyfriend<333
Hello Kitty Pink Bow Pierced Earrings
Hello Kitty Pink Bow Necklace

We left at 5:00 to go to Best Buy. I bought a laptop for my dad. Mine is being sent in for repairs right now...I wish I could just steal his laptop lol. Target was also across the plaza, so I dropped by because I had some things I wanted to pick up. I went earlier that night at 9:00PM, but they weren't open until 1:00AM. -__-

Target buys:
I admit that half of this is just guilty spending, but the gift tags/stickers are ADORABLE. I would buy more except I don't think I'll ever get to use them. Or even bear to use them.

Last stop: iHop
By the time we left iHop, I was starting to crash.. it was around 7:30AM and I guess I just got so tired I was falling asleep in the car xD I got home about an hour later, went to sleep and woke up at 4:30PM.

Here are some bonus photos:
 I thought this polish was pretty cool.. I took the brush out and couldn't really tell how it worked though, but I Google imaged it and it's supposed to do like a marble effect? This is from Rue 21.
Stuff I tried on but didn't purchase.
1) Theory Nichele (navy) - this one actually came in my size :T But I didn't want navy just yet...sigh
2) Ann Taylor shirt - I thought of getting it but ultimately it was sorta plain and I had something similar.
3) Anna Taylor blazer - Good thing I didn't buy it... I know nothing about the fit of blazers, but it was just so boxy so I couldn't bear to buy it. I might've if I didn't find anything at Theory just because I didn't know any better.

Black Friday Shopping Pt. 1 // My First Suit

This year I went to the outlets to shop for Black Friday. I went last year as well..and waiting in traffic was terrible because I had to use the bathroom :x This year wasn't really as bad. We started heading there around 10:30PM or so and arrived at 12:30AM, not too long after stores began opening.

I was mainly hoping to find something from Theory and when I got there..looking at the price tags made me lose hope lol. There's no way I can afford to pay $400 a piece, but as I ventured towards the back, I found more affordable options. 
Nichelle
Joanie
 Max C

I know the photos make them look sloppy, and I wish I could model them, but I don't have any good lighting at home.. nor am I good with taking full body shots. Hopefully in the (near) future I'll be able to do a more thorough post on it.

I almost bought the set in navy, even though I wanted black, but they didn't have my size. I was hesitant to ask if there were more in the back, because generally stores always say what's out is everything they have. But I did anyways and they didn't have it.. but when she was talking to her co-worker about it, she mentioned that they had Nichelle in the back, not Gabe B. Nichelle was the one I wanted, but I guess I accidentally pulled out Gabe B. when I showed her which black one I wanted.

They only had size 00 and size 2 left. I went with the size 2 because the 00 was a tad too tight.. the size 2 looks fine, I think, but I hope there's no little details that I couldn't catch. It was either getting my size, but in navy or size up with the color I want and I chose the latter. Everything is final sale, so I can't change my mind afterwards :\

I actually regret not trying Gabe B. But they didn't have my size anyways, so I guess that doesn't matter, but it seems to be the more popular choice of Theory. I was also hesitant to buy the pants too, since it would just add more $$$ but I decided to do it anyways since it'll be harder to find a matching pair later on. It's way too long for me as it is, so I had to find a place to tailor it :(

But now that I have everything.. I should be all set for at least the next four years lol. I don't really expect to wear it for much aside for class, which requires us to dress up business formal, and maybe interviews by the time I'm a senior. I still need heels though, actually. 

Well that's all for now :x I didn't get a chance to edit the other photos yet and I don't have Photoshop in the laptop I'm using right now at school.
