Cato is a good-value clothing and accessories store. I like to shop for clothes based on if I like the style and how much it costs. I don't shop exclusively according to brand names because in my opinion, in the grand scheme of things, who cares?! Of course, it is nice to have staple items in one's wardrobe that often means you shell out a bit more money for them - now I'm off-topic! Cato, however, is an overall good value buy - they have clothes in every size and style and they carry seasonal items (so out of season items are on sale!) They also carry really cute handbags, wallets, watches, and jewelry all at a really good price. They don't always have clothing that I want to buy and the quality isn't the absolute best but it isn't bad. Really good store for filling out your seasonal wardrobe!

I always drive past this store and never gave it a second look. Call me a snob, but anything sitting beside a Wal-Mart SuperCenter or the local econogrocer usually is a big no-no for me. Today they had a cute top in the window, so I took a deep breath and prepared to be staggeringly underwhelmed.

I was wrong. They had a fair selection of fun casualwear for girls and women including plus sizes, lingerie, accessories, and shoes. It wasn't stellar quality, but the clothes are trendy and very affordable - certainly comparable to most mall stores. I'm actually looking forward to my next trip back!
