So I recently went on my family's annual vacation to Hilton Head and one of my favorite parts of that trip is outlet shopping and then hitting up TJ Maxx and Marshalls. Something about shopping on vacation and having the time to dig through the racks and score some awesome finds just really invigorates me.

So, at H&M, I major scored and spent a whopping 37 bucks TOTAL on these three pieces:

This men's t shirt in a size medium (always check out the men's section at H&M, guys. Sometimes they have the dopest jackets and if you find a size small enough, looks perfectly oversized and so so cool) that I plan on wearing as a throw on and go dress in the summer and then when it cools off, with a moto jacket and over the knee boots.

These awesome lounge-y pants and can be worn with a sneaker, a loafer mule or a heel. They taper slightly at the ankle so they're almost a jogger type pant. And they're supes comfortable too, very breathable fabric AND they have pockets:

And then finally this extremely flattering button down. Normally I don't live for button downs because they're so preppy but you can wear them in so many ways and you can edge these up with layers, a sexy heel, tying it in a knot on the bottom, rolling the sleeves up, etc:

Then I hit up TJ Maxx and scored some really good deals on workout stuff. It physically pains me to spend money on clothes that I wear only to sweat in (profusely, might I add because I sweat like a man) so I buy my workout stuff exclusively in TJ Maxx or Marshalls. The thought of spending 100 bucks on a pair of Lululemon yoga pants is just not ok with me.

Also, there's no point in me linking what I bought because their inventory always changes but suffice to say I got 2 pairs of Reebok sports bras for $14.99 and a pair of really good, suck-all-of-your-fat-in-they-might-as-well-be-spanx capri leggings for 13 bucks.

Then I got the most comfy joggers that I will wear as Home Clothes (clothes I wear exclusively at home and never ever out in public because no) at the Gap Outlet. I also should mention that I never wear clothes that I wear in public in my house for more than the 5 minutes it takes me to strip down and change. I even have Home Bras. I need to feel maximum comfort when I am at home and while I can hang with a skinny jean for a work day, it's like against my religion to hang out in jeans at home. I also rarely if ever wear gym clothes in public unless I am actually at the gym or in my car on the way home from the gym. You will most likely never catch me in Target or at brunch wearing workout clothes because again, no.

(They don't have many sizes left so I'm linking all of the joggers they carry)

So, am I the only one who shops with no abandon when on vacation? It's like it's not real money because vacation is not real life, amirite?
