Collective Spring Haul + Luvocracy Giveaway Winner!

I've really come to love spring fashion because of all the incredibly feminine trends that have been surfacing lately. I got these items in different intervals, so don't think that I bought them all at once! That would be too crazy, at least for me. Without further ado, here are some new additions to my expanding spring wardrobe!

Forever 21

As soon as I saw this in Forever 21's new collection, I instantly placed it on top of my wishlist. It's probably the closest knockoff to Brandy Melville's Moselle cardigan which I've been wanting for the longest time. Good thing I found the last one in my size! It's definitely a staple in my wardrobe, and it's only for $23 as opposed to Brandy's $78!

Forever 21 Flower Crown - $4.80; Love Culture Flower Headband - $2.95

I also grabbed a couple of ethereal flower crowns for the heck of it. They're really cute accessories to add to spring-inspired outfits!

Target

Leopard Print Midkini Swim Top - $19.99

I grew out of all my swimsuits since the last time I wore one was probably about 10 years ago! Anyway, I thought I'd get a midkini top instead of a bikini because it's pretty much like a crop top that you can swim in, and it's a lot more comfortable to walk around with.

 Love Culture

Cami Floral Ruffle Dress - $29.95

This babydoll/slip dress style is rapidly growing this season, all thanks to Brandy Melville. I was particularly drawn to this dress because of the vintage color and print. I'm a big fan of Brandy's Jada dress, and this knockoff has everything on point including the tiered ruffles and the coveted open back, except the material is a lot more sturdy and silky!

Charlotte Russe

Feather Print Infinity Scarf - $5.00 (sale price)

The only reason I bought a scarf in the spring was to make a DIY kimono. I was highly inspired by LaurDIY from Youtube, so I made my own as well!

Perforated Ankle Cuff Sandals - $18.00 (sale price)

The online store had free shipping for orders of $25+ the other day, so I couldn't resist taking advantage of the deal. I got these online exclusive nude pink sandals because I've been wanting a new pair of chunky heels that I could wear on casual days. It's the perfect everyday wear because it's a neutral color and the heels are very easy to walk in!

Turquoise, Moon & Star Midi Rings - $5.00; Boho Horn & Feather Earrings - $5.00

I also added these cute ring and earring sets since they were such great deals for only $5!

Tobi

Love Phenom Dress - $25 (discount price)

When I found out about their "50% off the first purchase" deal, I immediately added this cream bell-sleeved dress to my cart. I love how feminine and understated long sleeve dresses look, and this one is especially suited for spring and summer. If you wanna know how I modified this dress, read my DIY post!

Sheinside

Navy High Waist Ripped Tassel Denim Shorts - $20.72 (discount price)

I finally got around to ordering something from this site, so I went for yet another pair of distressed high waisted shorts because I can never have too many! This store is based in Asia, so you're probably gonna need a lot of patience with the delivery time, but mine actually arrived in only less than two weeks, so I guess it depends on the product. I really like this pair although I really wish they had an extra small. It fits very loose on my thighs and falls a bit below my waist. Other than that, I'm quite impressed with the quality and style.

Thrift Stores (Buffalo Exchange, Urban Outfitters Surplus, Goodwill)
I was planning to make a separate blog post on my thrifted items, but since I only bought a few, I thought I'd include them here.

Graphic Tee from Buffalo Exchange - $12

I went to Buffalo Exchange and bought this faded brown graphic tee for those super lazy, hot summer days when it doesn't even make sense to get dolled up. I really like the fit of this because it hugs my body without being skintight, and that's quite difficult to find especially for my petite body type.

Yin-Yang Graphic Tee from Urban Outfitters Surplus - $10.00

*Side note: Urban Outfitters Surplus is not a thrift store, but it has drastically discounted prices of the original UO items. 
I got this yin-yang printed graphic tee that's very reminiscent of Brandy Melville's moon phase tank top. I was never really interested in Brandy's version, but I was drawn to this one because of the deep scoop on the back. Plus, it was only $10 for what was originally over $30!

Thrifted H&M Fur Vest - $7.99

I went to Goodwill and got this borderline obnoxious winter piece that appears to be brand new and unworn. The H&M tags are still attached and it seems to be in perfect condition, so I decided to get it since it was only $7.99. I was looking for a fur vest in the wintertime but most of them were ridiculously expensive, so I guess I'll save this for next year!

Thrifted H&M Crochet Vest - $4.99

I also got this little crochet vest from Goodwill which is a very appropriate outerwear for spring. I don't have that many ideas on how to style it yet, but I'll definitely try to wear it often this season.

Now that I practically bought a whole new spring wardrobe, it's safe to say that I won't be shopping for quite a while.

*The winner of the Luvocracy giveaway is Iris Ananthset! Congrats, girl and miss ya! (: Enjoy your $25 credit!

As always, thanks for reading!
