I loved it! I was just going in to look maybe buy a pair of jeans, but walked out with 5 (I think)…read morepairs of jeans, a 2 sweaters, and a shacket. When I walked in, I was looking at jeans completely clueless of my size and what I was going to get when Sydney walked over. She helped me find my size and jeans that I love! She was incredibly helpful in finding what I wanted and super nice. And opened my eyes to these BEAUTIFUL studded jeans that I would have never picked up on my own. Me and my mom combined spent around $750 dollars (sorry dad) in the store, Sydney is a great saleswoman lol.

I had to kill time in Columbia so I went to the mall and browsed around several stores. I bought a…read morefew small things at Claire's and Spencer's, then wandered over to Hot Topic to find some buttons/patches for my big jean jacket. The location is pretty small, to the point where I couldn't get around the only employee when she was taking pictures of the t-shirt display (for whatever reason). The selection for patches was pretty small. I've never been but it just seemed like the teen-friendly version of Spencer's and had basically the same stuff. Anyways, the employee kept eyeing me suspiciously and looking at the buttons I picked out in my hand to the point where it was so painfully obvious that I almost threw them back in the bin and left. I tried to act natural, but it's kind of hard when the only other person in a cubicle-sized room is oggling. I wanted to ask what her problem was. Was it my clothes? I had a hand-me-down shirt on and a jacket tied around my waist. My demeanor? I wasn't feeling social. My age? I don't know why that would matter, but hey. Funny that they would market pins with phrases like "My Anxiety Has Anxiety" but they treat people with actual, clinical anxiety like a active threats. My experience may be anecdotal, but I wouldn't come here if you look poor, queer, or you're anxious. I don't even feel like I can enjoy my purchases anymore. I was dejected the whole drive home. Also, someone needs to break it to "Jessica" (printed on receipt) that the eyeshadow isn't working with the hair color and she's honestly too old to pull off either.
