express yourself

I was around 15 years old, and I have vivid memories of purchasing clothing from Express for my first day of high school. I remember exactly what I was wearing: dark denim, a black belt, and a turquoise top from Express. How do I remember this? No idea, but it feels like it was yesterday. Twelve years later I’m living back in Houston (where I spent my Freshman year of high school) and it feels like no time has gone by at all. It may have been a long time since I shopped at Express, but lately I’m all about some of their fabulous pieces. Most of their items are extremely reasonable and extremely stylish. It’s a win-win in my book. It’s a funny thing how so much time can go by, but the littlest moments take you back to where so much began. And, with that, some of my current favorite Express pieces.

Lace Yoke Color Block T-Shirt Dress

Stella Extreme Stretch Colored Jean Legging – Purple

Double V-Neck Tunic Sweater

Color Block Hi-Lo Hem Tee

Colored Leather Gloves

    I’ve been all about Express recently, they built one right down the street from my apartment so now they get all of my dollar bills. Those gloves are so cute!

    I actually bought a black ruffled t-shirt at Express when I was shopping with my granddaughter. It’s perfect because the short sleeves aren’t too short – kind of end right above the elbow. Love it!

  10. Is it wrong that I want everything?! I’m especially in love with that lace yolk dress, it looks eerily similar the top in my post today! Great minds think alike 😉

    So I hadn’t shopped at Express in a long time either, because they sort of lost their way for a while… However, they have really been killing it lately 😉
