After the successful exchange, the best thing to do would be to leave the mall immediately, but I decided to fall into the Gap to check out their additional 40% off clearance section. I found the cutest onesie in the baby dept, which had an addtl 30% off. I saw this pretty green dress with the smocking at the belly. I figured it would be good for maternity and it is. I got the small. Since the S fit well for me at 30 wks, I'd say you probably want to size down one. It would look great w/a brown belt, so if you see this dress give it a 2nd look whether you're expecting or not. The color is just beautiful. I hope I'm not exaggerating. *lol* I am pretty thrilled to find things that I think are going to work over the next 2 months. Even maternity tops seem to creep higher in the front. I'll post irl pics when I wear it. Speaking of maternity, I've reviewed some Gap tops in this post.

Upon exited the fitting room, I saw the following dress on a woman in the fitting room. It looked cute on her, but she didn't buy it. I don't think her significant other was hip to the look. There's a chance you could look like you're on your way to a toga party or just wrapped in a sheet, period. I found it a match for my skin tone, so fabric color is going to be a factor. The size S fit me (41" belly), but it probably won't very soon. It's a cute dress. I can't gauge exactly how it would fit non-maternity, but it seems that the chest area is very, very blousony. It's adjustable with a drawstring under the bust. I tried it at home with my J Crew bubble necklace and another look w/a different necklace & cardi. Machine washable. Very cute. Oh, I said that.

I went into Forever 21 looking for a necklace I'd seen three days prior. That's right, I didn't heed my F21 guide and of course that little $6.80 number is long gone in the span of 3 days. While in the store, I spied this sweater and tried it on. I wouldn't peg it for F21 if it walked past me on the street. It's definitely much more exciting than JC's linen pullover. I most often wear M in F21, but this mostly fit in size S. It was just a touch short. It's from Love 21, their line that runs half a size to a full size larger than regular F21. I'd say size down one on this.

While at the mall, I successfully stayed away from McDonald's. The frozen strawberry lemonade has been calling my name. It's tart to me and I like tart. It's also sweet, so I think about the sugar content. The upside to favoring salty/savory snacks is that I can exercise self control when it comes to sweet ones. Here's a pro review of the frozen drink on The Impulsive Buy. A con review, depending on how you look at 16 tsp sugar *lol*, on Snack Girl. I've had two so far this summer and get the smallest size available. I'm sure I'll get it again in the future.
yummy!I meant to step inside of Bath & Bodyworks for their yellow sale. It started on 6/22 or so and today will probably be the last day. It's always fun to get a few lotions for the home or as gifts when they're on super sale. They're discontinuing many of the fragrances, many down to 75% off.
No mall for me on the 4th. It's been a nice weekend so far and it'll be nice to wrap it up watching fireworks. Hope your weekend has been splendid. :)

p.s. At Saks, the croc-printed Jimmy Choo for Hunter boots are over 50% off. And if you're a size 9, these Chie Mihara color blocked sandals ($137.99) may be of interest. If the links don't take you to the product page, they will come up easily in a search on the site.
