<p>The Limited has pencil skirts and matching jackets. They tend to be seasonal so white and light colors now and darker when fall arrives. We bought a suit Freshman year for DD…if I remember they had a sale if you bought the skirt and the jacket. </p>
<p>JCrew has a outlet and often time on line will go “Take an extra 30% off” sale items. their clothes are timeless and a little more college girl. We can’t seem to buy enough of their pencil skirts.</p>
<p>We have shopped at White House Black Market…got a cute black strapless taffeta dress on sale.</p>
<p>Banana Republic also has suits and since they are owned by the same parent company as the Gap they have decent sales.</p>
<p>Just a suggestion, I would definitely think about buying your D a classy black dress. With a string of pearls and pearl studs it can pass for many different events!</p>
<p>We LOVE LOVE LOVE Ann Taylor Loft…DD has bought 2 different suits there…they also have good sales.</p>
<p>When you are in Tuscaloosa go to Belk. Because it is a college town and they cater to that type of attire. They have a decent size Lilly Pulitzer dept and I we have bought several sundresses there. Last year when I was there for Mom’s weekend they had a special sale that started at 6 am…we snatched up 3 pairs of shoes, 5 dresses, a pair of Frye boots, a Longchamps bag and spent about half what we would’ve spent normally! It was fantastic! They gave out $25 gift cards to the first 100 people and we won another $50 one.</p>
