Posh in Progress

Will These Amazing COVID Retail Sales Boost The Economy?

By Stacey Freeman 1 Comment


If you had asked me two weeks ago when I shot this Shein look if I’d be talking about anything other than cute floral dresses, I wouldn’t have believed you. If you would have told me that many people are afraid our economy is going to collapse and you could score major COVID retail sales, I would have asked you, “what’s COVID?”

Well, today is literally a different world than a couple of weeks ago. Although a lot of us probably aren’t thinking much about retail shopping, now is actually a great time to stock up on spring and summer items at a steep discount. So if you are on the lookout to add a few new pieces to your wardrobe, now is actually a great time. And it might even boost the economy a bit.

The day that we shot this look was a perfect spring morning in LA. The air was crisp, the trees were just starting to flower, and spring was definitely on its way. Initially, I wasn’t planning to wear a jacket. But, it was a bit too chilly for me when I left my house. So, I grabbed my favorite moto jacket. I took photos with and without the jacket. I opted to run the ones with the jacket because I love the edgy leather against the ultra-feminine frilly dress.

For my look, I chose to pair the dress with some strappy high heels and my classic Chanel bag. I love the all-black accessories combo with the leather jacket. Honestly, the jacket with these shoes and purse work with so many different outfits. I can wear jeans and a tank, leggings and flowy blouse, or even a maxi dress. All of those looks would work with this leather jacket, these heels and this bag.

Especially in a time where our economy is falling, this is a time where I’m so glad that I did spend a bit more on quality pieces that work with everything. This jacket I got back in 2016 when I led a study abroad program to Paris and London. The weather was much chillier than I expected, so I popped into a Topshop in London and found this perfect, thick, leather jacket. It was a bit more expensive than I usually spend on coats, but it’s a jacket I know I am going to own forever.

As for the most timeless bag – the medium caviar flap Chanel with gold hardware. This bag only appreciates with age. Seriously, Chanel bags hold their value better than most retail items.

I know that now probably doesn’t feel like an appropriate time to spend a lot on much of anything except for basic living expenses. But if you have been holding out for great sales, now is the time. If you are in the market for some cute spring or summer clothes, these are some sites you might want to check out right now for great COVID retail sales.

MLK weekend vibes💙. It has been so warm in LA w MLK weekend vibes💙. It has been so warm in LA we spent all day at the beach yesterday. Today, we are taking in local parks and another gorgeous day. But, my heart is heavy with the state of our world.

Today, as we celebrate an important figure in the fight for Black equality, I’m choosing not to share one of his famous quotes because that’s too easy. Simply sharing his words without considering or sharing my perspective about the current state of our country feels disingenuous at best.

I’ve struggled with how to talk about the insurrection because I still find it all so shocking. And the fact that I am shocked is a problem. That our country can be so divided that it’s difficult for me to even fathom how people could participate in this divisiveness.
.
The insurrection happened on my birthday, as I flew to Puerto Vallarta. Landing in Mexico and learning about what was happening felt surreal. I still can’t wrap my head around it, honestly.  What scares me the most is the hate. The idolizing of a white supremacist ideology is terrifying. It terrifies me for my children. For their safety. For their lives.
.
I understand that a lot of hate is spurred by fear, lack of understanding and discomfort. Today, I hope we can all think about how to be more open to thoughts and perspectives that our different than our own. Be more accepting of people who look different, who have different cultures and life experiences. Today, I hope we can all collectively try to confront every human interaction from a place of love and kindness. If we all spent a little more time considering the other person’s life or story, I think we’d have a lot more peace and happiness. #mlk #mlkday #mlkweekend

That's why I love having @Progresso Toppers soups on hand because they make quick and  tasty lunch options when I'm super busy. They are so convenient - and the soup also comes with a topper for the perfect crunch. They come in five different flavors and are ready in minutes. All five flavors of the Progresso Toppers are made with quality ingredients and no added sugar, or artificial flavors, or colors. If you're looking for a quick, convenient and delicious lunch option, definitely check out Progresso Toppers! #progresso #progressotoppers #takeacrunchbreak
