SHOP THE POST
Have any of you who live outside the US ever use one of those companies that will ship things to you from US retailers that don’t ship to your country?
I am getting increasingly frustrated that & Other Stories doesn’t ship to Canada even though they are rumoured to be opening a couple of stores here, and their parent company H&M does ship here.
I wouldn’t think the logistics wouldn’t be much different with this company than with H&M, so I am not too sure what the issue is. Right now I am trying to figure out how to get two items that I have in my cart to my doorstep before they sell out.
I hope you have a great weekend!

Oh, what fun things you found, Ms. Sara. I’m totally digging the deep colors and cool patterns. I’m having so much fun checking each item out. Thank you. Thank you also for the excellent reading list.
I actually bought two beautiful dark floral blouses on F21 that I love. Come to find out dark florals are uber trendy for this Fall, so I’m apparently stylishly on-point as well. Who knew?
Hope you all have a brilliant weekend and keep these wonderful weekly posts coming. Cheers, Ardith
Thanks Ardith!
I’ve noticed some pretty great things at F21 lately. We have a huge one nearby and I like to pop in. I was so close to buying a severely marked down checkered coat recently but I didn’t grab it right away and missed my chance.
It’s always a nice feeling to have your style choices confirmed as being on trend isn’t it? 😂
I’m actually heading to Zara right now to see if they have this beautiful (at least it looks beautiful online) light pink blouse in stock. Even thought it is short sleeves I think it will transition well in to fall.

Hi Sara. I love the pics you have for this week, especially the Anthropologie bag. I live in France and have had things shipped from 3rd party providers but honestly it was so expensive and the vat on top of it was just not worth it. I hope you can find a good solution!
Ugh. That’s what I figured. Thanks for confirming that before I jumped the gun and tried it anyway though. I guess it might be more reasonable if you were buying a bunch of things from various retailers, and then they pack it together to combine the shipping. My US friend who usually ships to me is in the middle of moving, so I’m not going to burden her with my shopping woes 😂 thanks for letting me know about your experience.
