Lace-Front Tank, Small and Medium – I love my Embroidered Eyelet Tank in Ivory from last year. The retail version has a scalloped hem while the factory version does not. Everything else is the same for this tank including the sizing. I have a Small in the retail version, mainly because the armhole was cut low and the Factory version is the same way.
This tank comes in three colors: Ivory, Bright Hydrangea and Bright Rose. I was so caught up in seeing these at the Factory I bought all three colors. Since I have the retail Ivory version I don’t need the Factory version. They really are almost the same. 

Charley Sweater in Orange, Medium – I did not expect to like this sweater and tried it on only for the blog. But it’s super-cute and I really liked it. I didn’t get it because, even though our weather has caused me to wear every sweater I own at least once, I didn’t need another sweater. Even one as cute as this. My normal size Medium fit well

Floral Eyelet Top, size 8 – I liked the Melon color of this blouse. It’s not too bright IRL. The fit is spot on for me in the size 8, my normal shirt size. The eyelet is nice, but overall this is not something I’m looking for in my closet, in any of the colors. I know it will look great with white and navy bottoms.

Printed Silk Two Pocket Blouse, Small – I love my Blythe blouse in Pale Graphite. It’s so versatile and I wear it often. I was happy to find it at the Factory in Black Dot. Though it’s sheer I usually layer these under sweaters, cardigans and dresses. The Medium was originally too long in the arms and looser through the body. The Small fits much better all over. This went from 40% to 50% by Wednesday’s visit. 

Stretch Cotton Peplum Dress, size 6, Dark Emerald – I have been lusting over this dress since I saw it show up a month or so ago. I never ordered it. I felt I didn’t have any occasion to wear it. But when I was in the store Wednesday I decided to finally try it on. OMG! LOVE! I need a little better Spanx on top but this is a perfect fit. There also wasn’t a size 8 to try on. Glad I bought it as the size 8 is sold out online. Trying them on with my beloved Valentino Bow Heels.

The Ettas also pair nicely with the dress. My younger cousins need to hurry up and get married so I can wear my dresses to their weddings. 😉

I found the Linen Bead-Stitch Sweater in the Clearance section of the Factory. This is a Medium.

The Keating Boy Blazer in Linen in Minty Green was marked down to $99.97. Blazers were 40% off both Saturday and Wednesday. The mark-down happened between those days. Then of course, you can use the 20/25% coupon as well.

The Factory has been getting my money lately over the Retail side. Especially when the Retail prints and styles are being duplicated a few seasons later. Retail is loosing it’s mind. I like the quality in a lot of the Factory items and the prices are much better. The bonus is when they have 30/40/50% off plus a coupon to use!
