The Best (Affordable) Place to Shop When You're Bored

How many times have you been at home alone, felt super bored, and inevitably ended up online window shopping? It's ok—we've all been there. In case you've run out of stores to head to when said boredom kicks in, I have one that makes me feel extremely entertained every single time—Urban Outfitters. I don't know the last time you browsed through the many sections of the retailer, but lately, I have been impressed and excited by more than I can even recall. Between the nostalgia that a lot of the product brings (think bucket hats, classic sneaker brands, and hair clips) and the affordable price point, there is a lot of emotion waiting to be felt within the confines of this store, and I am here for it.
Another reason Urban Outfitters is a great place to turn to when you're in need of some mental stimulation is that the retailer has products that simply put, are fun. We're talking one-of-a-kind sneakers, kitschy prints, and accessories that will make any outfit look 10 times cooler. Before you know it, boredom will have turned into a cart full of items you didn't know your heart needed. In case you're bored right now, shop some of my favourite items currently stocked at the affordable retailer.
Speaking of affordable items, shop the summer handbag trends you can get for under $150.
