I wanna travel the world. Anywhere. Everywhere. You know, as long as it's clean and they speak English and it's safe.

Typical fitting room situation for me is having grabbed a ton of nice on the hanger dresses off the sales rack (of which I'm hoping one will work out) and a couple of sweaters/oversized tops (that were just too cheap to pass up but I don't think will work). What ends up happening? All the dresses are ill-fitting however the one top.. which is a Large.. fits me (to my liking at least). This is a typical fitting room situation for me. It's always the random item, not in my size and is just cheap enough for me to grab with me. So next time you go into the fitting room.. grab the random item that you don't think is going to work out.. because it just might..

Here are the rest of the photos from a couple posts ago. You can see the full outfit with those wedge platforms that I've been raving about. Topshop really has some fabulous shoes.. I have to stop myself from purchasing anymore items from them this week (already bought 3 sweaters). Right now I'm on the search for items to layer over my general collection of tops for the winter (that doesn't include my jacket).

    Great outfit. Every time I step into a fitting room I remember why I like shopping online. Seriously, somehow it seems to be easier to choose the right pieces based off an online image than going into a store, browsing the racks, and then heading into the dreaded ill lit changing room to see if you actually picked anything that works.
