I did some online shopping for clothes for the first time ever last week. I always thought I needed to try on the clothes in the store before buying. I'm pretty picky about the clothes I like. Most of the the time when I go into a clothing store dressing room with a pile of clothes to try on I come out not liking anything. So I couldn't see how I could possibly succeed with online clothes shopping.

But a friend of mine had been wearing a flattering tank top and I liked it so much I wanted one too. So I went to Eddie Bauer online and picked out a few things along with the Crochet Trimmed Tank top shown in the first image above.

They described it as an absorbent, soft pima cotton tank comfortable and cool for everyday wear. Hand crochet trim highlights the feminine wrap neckline, while an empire waist flatters every figure.

I bought an aster one and one in black. As I'm 5'9" I was very happy to have a 'tall size' option to choose from. I also bought a few other summer clothing items for me and my husband. They said delivery would be about seven to nine days so I was amazed when I received the package two days later. I really love the clothes, and am looking forward to shopping there again soon.
