Shopping

At the regular flea market shopping today I came across a woman who sold scarves for $3 each along with Kangol berets for the same price. I got two scarves…
…and a navy beret. I also got a clutch that she only wanted $2 for. What a steal!
I always find it difficult to find nice tights. Many of you have asked me about the tights I wear, but the truth is most of them aren´t really that nice. Sometimes I wear two on top of each other just cause it´s so hard finding completely opaque onces. Both black and gray tights are something I wear a lot, so I got these two two packs at H&M today with two different tighs in each package. They look both nice and warm now and as long as they don´t pill, I´ll be satisfied.
At last I got two wool scarves on sale, and two wool sweaters on Gina Tricot. Basics are the most boring things to buy so when I came across these affordable sweaters I just had to go for it. Gray and navy seem to be my favorite colors these days.

Really? I have as much fun buying basics as I do other stuff…:) Probably because most of the time I’m always going to be in my ‘basics’. I love the colors of the knits by the way plus they look super comfy. How much were the sweaters, scarves and tights?

Hei:) Bare et lite spørsmål, kan ikke du skrive hva prisen er i kroner sånn for oss Nord-boere som kjenner det bedre enn dollar, kan vite akkuratt hvor mye du har betalt.. Vi kan jo regne ut da, men du skriver alltid sånn ca. et eller annet dollar. Bare en liten forespørsel..:P

have you tried Tabio for tights? they do the most fantastic tights in 110 or 80 denier in lots of colours and they’re completely opaque. They do lovely ribbed ones too. I’m obsessed with them!

Heather, then you´re lucky! I´d always rather spend my money on something flashy that I don´t really need. :) The sweaters where $30, the knitted scarves $7 and the tights where about $20.
Thale, jeg kommer nok ikke til å skrive kroner siden jeg har lesere fra hele verden og dollar er noe fler kan forholde seg til, men svarer gjerne i kommentarfeltet! :) Dollar blir jo litt mer unøyaktig dersom jeg ikke handler fra USA, men skjerfene og de tingene var 20,- og vesken 15,- Genserne var 200,- stykket og de strikkede skjerfene 50,- Strømpebuksene var 149,- Selv er jeg så vant med dollar at jeg tenker ikke så masse over det. ;)

We must have commented at the same time Kris so I didn´t reply yours, but thank you so much! H&M always seem to disappint me when it comes to tights so I will check Tabio out. :)

I *love* that clutch. I can’t believe she only wanted $2.
And basics *are* boring to buy but I think, especially with v-necks, I end up using them to layer a ton.
