This is my list of favorite stores to shop at for gifts for everyone on your list including yourself! 😅 Let me know if you got anything good! I am about half way done with gifts for my family. Let me know if you need any ideas. 😊
So I was shocked when I learned a couple of months ago that there are actually two UGG brands. The original UGG since 1974 is the original Australian brand that are made from sheepskin. The other is an American company with the big G uses synthetic fabric and are made in China/Vietnam. Here are the two different logos. The one the left with the big G in the middle is the company that's made in China/Vietnam. The one on the right is the original UGG since 1974. Each pair is made in Australia! I had no idea and feel so duped. I didn't learn this until after I bought the Lowmel's which are very popular at the moment. But I will order a pair from UGG since 1974 so I can support the original brand. Plus I really want to experience the real thing and I will report back my findings. 😅 That said, I still actually really like the Lowmels. UGG Lowmel Sand Size Kids 4 I typically wear size 5.5 and I decided to try the kids size 4 which actually fit well, if just a smidge large...
Ohh I've never heard of Fashiohphile... or Parachute... I will look at their stuff. I want some Rothy's but I reeally dont need more shoes D: SO I'll keep admiring your collection. Shoes aren't my weakness even though I have over a dozen or so pairs and wear around 3....
ReplyDeleteHi Janessa! Fashionphile is where I shop for vintage bags, my other weakness! Parachute has amazing bedding and I was looking to get a new robe for Jared but his size is gone in the blue. Debating if I just get it in the gray.
DeleteYeah, I have a problem with shoes too. I have way too many, but I do use them. =D
Thanks for the heads up, Leslie! Sadly for Athleta we are only having 20% off the purchase and $30 off Rainier bottoms in Canada! :(
ReplyDeleteThanks to Lola’s recommendations , I ordered Allbird’s Women's Trail Runners SWT in Hazy Pink and LOVE them! Not only is the grayish purple color gorgeous, I love the fit and couldn’t be happier!
Have a nice weekend in New York!

Hi Andrea! That's a bummer we don't all get the same sale.
DeleteI'm so glad you love the Trail Runners SWT! I do use mine for hiking, have not tried it for everyday walking though. I knew the Hazy Pink would be a winner. I'm jealous!
I ordered the Rainier joggers and the textured Rainier legging to try. I couldn't resist with the 30% off plus another -$20. It brought the cost down to $62 each. I figured it was a good time to try the different versions of the original Rainier.
DeleteGlad I could help with the Trail Runners, Andrea! They are my favorite Allbirds shoe at the moment. I definitely wear them the most!
DeleteAnd Leslie, thanks for the Black Friday updates. I delved a bit into the Lululemon sale, but the deals weren't all that great, in my opinion. I was surprised to see shoes on markdown though.
I hope you're having a great Thanksgiving weekend!
Glad you saw my comment, Lola, and a big thank you to you! :). I wasn’t sure about the color coz it said Hazy PINK on the website but like you said it’s actually a pretty grayish lavender.
DeleteHave a nice weekend!
Andrea
Hi Lola! I did end up making a small Lululemon purchase from their BF sale, but I agree the prices weren't as good as I hoped. But if I don't love it at least they allow returns for store credit. I was hoping to see some StrongFeels on sale. I would definitely pick up a pair of those. Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!
DeleteI was hoping for some StrongFeels on sale too. I'd like to pick up another pair. Maybe Boxing Day?
