Lvnlakers78 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Im hoping someone can help!!!!! My mom is going on a cruise in February but she cant find any summer clothes all the stores around here say they wont start putting them out tell about March which will not help her at all!! She is thinking catalog shopping but cant find any that really have anything. She is looking for shorts, shirts, dresses summery things the only thing she doesn't need is a swim suit. Does anyone know a good place she could look??? Thank You!!!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest koby Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Land's End at Sears had cruise wear b4 Christmas. It could even be on sale by now. Online also maybe. How about Talbot's? Good luck, I'm jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackeeg Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 thrift stores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sterlingjeanne Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I would agree with the last post - thrift stores. They tend to have things given to them off season, especially post Christmas. The local Goodwill had a dollar rack of mostly summer things last weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokanm Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I boughts lots of "cruise clothes" on Ebay, including my DS's tux (which he later wore to 2 proms) my "fancy" gown and even cute short sets. They were really cheap and we looked damned good:tongue1: (If I do say so myself:giggle: ) Have Fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy410 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Our Target already has out their bathing suits,I didn't notice if they have shorts out or not. It's worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josher5513 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 The higher-end stores that carry Designer collections will have Summer '07 collections out already, as the designers released them months ago.. Though the lower-end stores probably won't have them out for a couple months, as they base their clothing lines off of what the designers show..

jeninpa Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I bought bathing suits on ebay before our 7 day Disney Cruise in October but we had it planned for 2 yrs so I bought up all the summer clearance clothes!! I did however have a heck of a time with sandals & flip flops!! I just lucked out finding some on clearance at a Walmart not near us! Have a good time! We LOVED it!

bugsette Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Kohl's should be bringing out some spring stuff in the next week ot two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trbarginhunter Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Coldwater Crrk has some summer things in their outlet section. They had a big sale last week, so I don't know what's left, but they generally have a wide sflection. And check the sports/work out area of her local sotre--I mean navy shorts are navy shorts... A lot of stores were setting out warm weather and rain things as Christmas cleared out, but we live in Southern California, no really winter type clothes unless you go to snow/ski shop. I was really surprized at the selection of coats avaliable in some places--finding a good coat here is an exercise in patience.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kopenney Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Check out JcPenney's. About 50% of the bathing suits are in, I am seeing the summer t-shirts are in for the womens/ misses department. I haven't check the sandals but the Spring catalog items can be ordered out from the Big Book starting this week at the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're going on a 7 night Disney Cruise this October! We went on a 3 night one a couple of years ago and loved it. I guess I'm going to look on eBay for our "formal" clothes. I don't really want to spend a lot on stuff we'll wear only once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adewrell Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Bealls, Burkes, Hudsons, etc. have summer stuff in my area. www.ablambdin.com specializes in resort wear. It's expensive but adorable stuff. Good luck and Bon Voyage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decafmom Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Our stores already have their summer things out as well. With the weather we're having it doesn't seem like such a stretch to see it on the shelves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pryan67 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 virtually ANY online store should have them (target, sears, jcpenny,etc), since they sell in markets other then the colder climates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JcPenney's, Sears and Bon Ton. You can get dresses for like $5!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsd Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Costco has swimsuits already, some nice one-pieces. Walmart has capris and some tank tops. There should be more available every day. I need a broomstick skirt to wear in temples in Thailand/Laos/Cambodia myself. Bought a couple from Ebay. Lori Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
