Pentagon City & Chinatown

Pentagon City shopping on the left, Chinatown on the right, DC has the most un-Chinatown ever, not kidding, FUDDRUCKERS in the background!

This weekend we went down to Pentagon City for some shopping/walking. I tried on shoes and countless dresses. One shop had some really cute, I think Korean imported maybe, dresses. Fun fabrics and easy shapes. I didn’t buy any, just tried.

the dresses I tried on there, hearts, kitties, stars, and lightening

Later in the day we stopped off at Chinatown for food. It was an awkward time, late lunch but pre-dinner. So naturally many places I wanted to eat at were closed. BUT Clyde’s was open . I’m always happy with my food, service, and atmosphere of Clyde’s. I got a “Thai” turkey burger that came with sweet chili sauce and a honey mustard or something. Ended with strawberry ice cream pie and cappuccino.

Then went to Urban Outfitters and Zara. Tried on a ton of clothes but no buy lol. Seriously Mike is always so patient when shopping. At Zara I tried on 16 items, only allowed 6 at a time! Even if he disagrees, I’ve used up like half a year’s worth of “change room waiting time husband patience!”

Then went to H&M!

See, I went crazy. But finally I bought something. This cardigan and skirt. Always loving border style. It’s got the brown suede elbow patches too. I’ve eyed it before.

I don't know why my hair looks so dark, it's quite faded and blondish again LOL Strange closet lighting

I was just hating everything I tried on. I was having one of those moments where it’s like “who am I, is this what I wear? Is this really me? Do I really like this? I duuuuuunnnnno~~~”

After H&M we ran to the metro in a heavy thunderstorm. Ok, the metro stop is right around the block, BUT STILL! My feet still ache but a good ache. Healthy walking. Also Dr Scholl’s fast flats saved me this day~~~~
