Outlet shopping

I am currently visiting my dad and Richard and we ended up going to the outlet malls at Tulalip (exit 200 off of I-5 in case anyone cares). The goal was basically pants for them for a trip they are going on. I was not planning on buying anything after shelling out around $1,500 on car-related stuff on Thursday (BCAA renewal, new battery, registration, and car insurance for the year).

But of course that didn't last. Ended up with a shirt from Eddie Bauer, plain t-shirts from Banana Republic, jeans from Levi's, and some things for Meesh from Calvin Klein. I almost bought stuff from Perry Ellis, but I curtailed that since I didn't want to try on a bunch of dress shirts.

But I continued my personal rule of no shirts that have stuff printed on them unless they are from Google or Threadless. That helps keep the t-shirt collection in line and from me becoming too much of a walking billboard (except for Google).

I also made sure stuff fit a little tighter than normal. Meesh has been wanting me in tighter fitting shirts so I got XL instead of XXL. And both Meesh and my mother have been after me for tighter fitting pants so the jeans are Levis 505 (regular fit).

Hopefully I won't need more clothes for a while. Still light on the shirt portion of my wardrobe, but that is not an issue with Spring now here (which will hopefully take away the rain).
