And boy was it huge! If I heard correctly, this is one of the bigger stores outside UK.
And that's just part of the shoe department.
The accessories department has its own corner.
But in the end, I didn't get anything. How about that? Not counting the fact that I'm sorta' in a pseudo shopping ban (sorta'? pseudo? does that make it almost nil?), it was just so busy in the store I was getting sensory overload. Me! Of all people!
So next thing I knew, my feet took me across the street.

| Anna dello Russo collection for H&M |
And guess what, I didn't buy anything there either! What's going on with the shopping universe?! O wait, I did buy something. (Oh, how quickly we forget). I bought some woolen knee-high socks... And a belt... And a snood... But wait, they're necessary accessories! To keep me warm for winter! Ok, a belt wouldn't keep me warm. Ok, not that I have no scarves at all. But still, in my mind, they don't count! Do they? They're necessary accessories! HAH!
Anyhoot, today, for the first time this season, felt like winter's just around the corner. And I thought the day calls for something hearty and warm and cozy for dinner.

And with Halloween just around the corner, not that we "celebrate" Halloween, I came across something fun that I just couldn't walk away from.
Random things, isn't that what I said?... hehe...
No....accessories don't count!
ReplyDeleteI thought so too! hahaha
DeleteI've found it's quite easy to get sensory overload in Top Shop. That beef stew with barley looks like total comfort food.

I'm the same way with department stores, yet somehow ok with stores similar to Marshalls or Loehmanns:p And thnx, totally enjoying the pink wig hehe
DeleteWow, I get overwhelmed Blythe Topshop in London I bet it's the same there. Love the pink wig, how fun forhalloween
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine! What am I talking about! I did get overwhelmed haha... And totally planning to get a lot of mileage out of that pink wig:p
DeleteOh, fun! I could get lost (and broke) in a store like that!!
ReplyDeleteLove the pink hair! Perfect for Halloween for sure. :)
Too easy I tell ya in my fave stores haha
DeleteLove the pink hair, darling!!! Good on you for only buying the "essentials" hehe
ReplyDeleteYes, essentials, I like the sound of that:p Best $10 spent recently on that wig, I tell ya, so much fun! haha
DeleteWhen a store is crowded, I can't shop very well either! HAHAHA I really become overwhelmed. I do a lot of online shopping. That TopShop is HUGE! We don't have one here in New Orleans, Louisiana. So I just look online. Your beef stew looks so good! I love chunky meals. Great post!
