When you’re out shopping, you never know what you might.I won’t try and bore you with my story, but it’s a interesting one nonetheless.

Penguin Cashmere V-neck Sweater

I normally don’t like visiting stores like Ross because they’re too chaotic for me. Clothes lying everywhere. Barely any room to browse around. But I’m used to it now, so it at this point I just had to do what was necessary. So after I went to the Men’s Department, the first thing I thought about was finding at least one winter related item. The Jackets were okay but nothing really grabbed my attention. Jeans, while nice still didn’t scream “buy me”.

Sweater by Original Penguin

So I randomly walked over to my size section of the rack and what do I find? I nice yellow cashmere sweater. I picked it up, and if you could just imagine how incredible the fabric felt. It was a really nice v-neck sweater overall. The company who designed this particular sweat was noted fashion brand Penguin. Metrostylemen has talked about Penguin on numerous of occasions.

I was really surprised that it was only $20.00. It wasn’t until I got to the counter that I was really in for a shock. My relative asked about me about the original retail price. Which was $250.00. That’s a great deal if you ask me.

Captain America Tee

I’ve always seen collectible t-shirts around stores, but I’ve never had any of my own. The one-of-a-kind Captain America Tee by Next Level Apparel had a really unique design and it only cost me $4.00. It’s original price was $22.00 Not bad huh? I bought this shirt at Kohls.

So my lesson here today was never underestimate any store because there’s bound to be something there you like. Luck was on my side this past week and I couldn’t be more happier that I got two shirts for a great price.

    Well, Kohl’s can often be counted on to have unbelievable deals on decent shirts. It’s the unofficial shop for all the male teachers at my school. But then again, I live in an area where there is NO PLACE TO SHOP for decent clothes. Kohl’s & JC Penny’s – that’s it.

    I have included 2 new design ideas for men’s clothing in my latest blog post:
