Striped Tie-Waist Tee and Classic Trench

I ordered a couple of spring tops during a recent Old Navy sale, and I’ve been debating on whether to keep them. Online shopping is about all I have time for these days, and yet I’m often disappointed when what comes in the mail is different from what I was expecting. This shirt for example, online appeared to have blush pink stripes. When it came in the mail the stripes were pretty, yet clearly lavender.

I thought about returning it since lavender isn’t in this month’s blush and olive palette, but because I like the style, fit, and even the color, I’m going to hold on to it. So a bit of lavender is sneaking into my closet this month, and I’m okay with that. I love the tie-front style, and I feel like that little detail, along with the pretty-hued stripes, instantly refreshes a few older items in my closet.

Do you mostly shop in store or online? Do you often get surprised by the way something looks at home vs online? What do you do?
