STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

When do you shop normally?

Elle · Hermes

Pretty much exclusively during the weekdays, so I can spend the weeknights/weekends with FH when he's off of work. I do occasionally shop online, but don't have great luck with things that I order usually and I hate paying shipping.

Mostly weekdays. I work from home, so it's easy to zip out to shop on, say, a Wednesday afternoon or something. And I like to shop when the stores are less crowded. DH likes it too, because he prefers that I shop w/out cutting into our "together" time, which is on w/ends.

I go to the mall or Target or somewhere EVERY day for lunch.. I get a lot of shopping done then. I will sometimes make an occasional trip during the evening..

I will also go on Saturday afternoon when DH is golfing or watching the games or whatever.

honey · Gucci

my two favorite days to shop are thursday & sunday. i like thursday b/c most sales start then and you don't have to deal with insane crowds. if i could i would shop exclusively during the week, but since i can't i stick with thurs & sun.

I will usually go to the mall only on weekends, but stores like Target and whatnot I'll go any time of the week. I swear, I'm looking online and planning my next purchases 24/7.

I usually shop after work on the weekdays, and on the weekends (to the mall before twelve o'clock), when Joe's working in the garage. LOL I do a LOT (mostly from my home shopping channels) on-line shopping, but like Elle, I hate to pay to send things back.

Lilykind · Hermes

I used to shop almost exclusively on weeknights because

that's when your feet are the largest from being inflamed all day (prime shoe shopping)

it was the best work de-stresser

it was me time, so I was always able to shop as I pleased.

I don't shop much anymore since I'm not as close to LA's shopping hotbeds as I was at my old job. Now I keep it to weekends. My BF does like shopping to some extent (he adores jean shopping) so it's never too bad to bring him along.

I look at online store for inspiration and to find out about the newest brands so that I can go to a B&M store and further my research. I only order online from companies where I know my sizing and/or have seen the item in an LA boutique but want to get it for cheaper.

I really can't put my vote down since I really don't have a specific day. Mostly on a day off from work, and when the moment comes up that I need to have something.

rlutz · Chanel

either after work or later on Saturday afternoons

Ally S · Kate Spade

I typically will run out lunch time to BR, Gap, JCrew, there are also many little fun shops in town so I roam around in them.

I don't like shopping on the weekends and really have stopped liking most malls lately. After work, I'd rather just go home but will venture into Target if I have to.

Maat · Kenneth Cole

Mostly weekends. I love to just immerse myself in shopping. I work too late a lot of the time during the week to get a good shopping trip in. At the beginning of each season, I make huge shopping trip on a Saturday where I just spend the whole day at the mall and eat lunch and maybe dinner there. Nobody can come with me and chances are I won't bring my phone. I'm so busy all the time that it is sort of a luxury to me to be there all day buying clothes with no disturbances.
