Parndorf Outlet Haul: What We Bought and Kept Using
I was so focused on filming at Parndorf that I forgot my own shopping list. We still came home with quite a mix: little things for the house, shoes for me, clothes for my husband and a few gifts.
These are the purchases from our December 2025 trip, the choices behind them and the things we’ve kept using since. Prices are what we paid at the time.
Le Creuset and Pandora: pink finds and a cream mill set
Le Creuset had been appearing all over my feed, and I was looking for a cute salt-and-pepper set. I wanted pink, but that colour was sold out, so we bought the light-cream mills instead: €44.80, with €64 listed as the recommended retail price on the box.
I did find something pink: a little ceramic cocotte with a lid, 250 ml, for €13.70. Its label showed a previous price of €28. I pictured using it for a small breakfast or something sweet.
Pink appeared again at Pandora, where we chose the medium jewellery box for €35. There were three sizes, and I liked the large one too, but we didn’t have enough luggage space for it. The medium has compartments for jewellery and a removable upper tray. Sometimes the suitcase makes the final decision for you.

UGG Tazz II and Tommy Hilfiger sneakers: two pairs I kept wearing
At UGG, I wanted the Tazz II in chocolate, but that colour wasn’t available during our visit, so I chose black. They cost €149.95, and I like how they look. The additional offer didn’t apply to this pair. They’ve become a comfortable, stylish option for me in cooler weather.
The other pair was from Tommy Hilfiger: burgundy-and-cream sneakers for €76.90. I had been looking for something a little more elegant, and the colour caught my attention. Since the trip, I’ve found them comfortable and easy to combine with my clothes, which makes them one of the useful finds from this haul.

Tommy Hilfiger cap and Ralph Lauren accents: grey, burgundy and a little red
Tommy Hilfiger also had a cap I could picture wearing in spring or autumn. There were beige and grey versions; I chose grey for €37.90 because it suited my cooler tones better. The small gold-coloured monogram stood out against it.
Our Ralph Lauren purchases added more colour: a small red bag and red Lauren Ralph Lauren ballet flats. The bag was €195 when we first saw it, and the next day we bought it for €80. I liked it as a bright accent for an outfit. The flats, with their little bows and gold-coloured details, cost €35, and I was especially happy with that price.

What my husband chose: Ralph Lauren, Lacoste and Crocs
My husband picked up basics at Tommy Hilfiger, including T-shirts and sweaters. I thought they were good everyday pieces at nice prices. The green Polo Ralph Lauren sweater with a short zip was for him too, and he wears it often.
At Lacoste, I found the men’s section more interesting than the women’s during that visit. We bought green and dark polos for him, along with an olive matching top-and-trousers set. The green polo was €63, and the set was €56 for the top and €56 for the trousers. I loved the look of that set and wished there had been a version for women too.
His olive Crocs were the last pick. I added my own little touch with the decorations, and I loved how they turned out. Among them were skis, a clover and gaming-themed pieces, a small part of the haul with plenty of personality.

Gifts and a travel bag: Tommy Hilfiger backpack, bag and socks
We also found an olive Tommy Hilfiger backpack for my older brother’s birthday and a large black travel bag for my husband. The bag has two handles and a shoulder strap; I thought it would be perfect for trips.
There was a five-pair men’s sock set too. I liked the gift options at Tommy Hilfiger and Pandora, so those stops had something to offer beyond choosing clothes for ourselves.

Starbucks mugs to remember Austria
I love collecting Starbucks cups, and we brought home two at €25 each: one marked Vienna and another marked Austria. One was for us and one for our friends.
The Austria mug, with its mountain and skiing illustrations, made me think of our first ski trip together. I use our own Starbucks mug all the time now, and it has become a small, everyday reminder of that trip.

The finds we kept
We had limited time and luggage space, but I felt the shopping went really well. The things that stayed with us are the ones we use: the shoes, the sweater, the mug. The shop-by-shop prices and finds are in my Parndorf outlet shopping guide, and I explain how we got there in my Vienna to Parndorf guide.
