Lust List: Spring Edition

Hey hey lovelies! I know I am probably the last person on earth to do this, put I'm posting about one of my favorite things in the world..... SPRING FASHION! Spring is one of my favorite seasons once it starts getting warmer here (which is looking like it won't happen lol). I love breezy, colorful outfits that just look GOOD. On trend this season is obviously color.... something that I am working very hard on incorporating lots of into my closet! I think a great colorful top, statement necklace, cute sandals and skinnies is a great look that is very versatile!

TOPS:

Love this. Only $30... It's a neon pink color, wheras neon is a HUGE hit for spring, and it's a statement piece itself that does not need to compete with a lot of other accessories. It would be great to have to spring into summer too, with white denim and gold jewlery!

I am obsessed with the color of this shirt. Aqua and mint are such key colors for spring, and how could you not for $26?

Really like this royal blue color too. I like how it's modeled with white shorts and a patterned clutch, it's simple, not over-done, but looks great.


This is actually a dress, but I have been wearing it as a shirt. I just tuck it up, and it looks cute! Actually don't know if I'll even wear it as a dress.
Dying for this color too! Would love to pair it with gold jewlery and my new Michael Kors sandals that I am anxiously waiting to wear :)
I like this hunter green top, too. This color can be worn all seasons, and the open back is adorable! $20 people, I mean really....

PANTS

Love these. I have worn my red skinnies so much that I need a similar shade in a lighter, springy way. These or coral colored for me would be amazing. Just got mint skinnies from F21 for $15, so maybe they'll have some of the same colors there!

I think I started drooling when I saw these. I love the hunter green color!! If you saw my St. Patty's day post, you'll know why I'm lusting after these.

ETC., ETC.

I just really like these :) Love me some Miss Me's!

Worlds most popular necklace, I'm not even going to link it but I WILL have this!


Perfect spring outfit for me. Love the dark skinnies and hunter's, and I like the brightness of the turquoise with the white!

I'm in love:) Can't get enough of Tory... I like the bright blue pants, more casual with the plain white tee and sandals, but it gets dressier with the Kate Spade and [assorted] gold jewlery!

These are just some ideas I have for spring... I'm sure I'll do another post like this post Hawaii! :) 3 days... Have a great day y'all! Happy Saturday!




Impatience




Top: TJ Maxx
Blue skinnies: Papaya (Obviously, I am obsessed with them)
Boots: gojane.com (Another obsession)
Necklace: Charlotte Russe here

I have been really liking simple pairings with a standout piece... it is just easy for me to throw on in the mornings when I have no effort to get out of my warm bed to go into the cold, lol. Have I mentioned that I am jealous of people who actually get spring weather?! ;) At least I am trying to put more effort into adding color, my pants here match the rain! I am currently hunting for my spring necessities, stay tuned ;) 

Color me spring


Pink blazer: F21
T-shirt: ON
Jeans: AE
Cheetah print loafers: Kohls
Necklace: Charlotte Russe

Really, I am wanting more color.... its springtime, not the winter, and I would sure like the weather to start acting like it!! I am beyond jealous of all the people I see posting on their blogs with their cute dresses, wedges, etc. 4 days until Hawaii though!! I think I can, I think I can....Have a good day/night! :) XO

Playing catch up

Sweater: Old Navy
Maxi: Nordies rack
Flats: Rack
I had taken off all my jewlery at this point...sorry! And I'm also really not liking this sweater anymore.... It stretched out a ton. Like waaaaaay too much. Debating taking it back to complain, but I'm not sure they would accept it, considering i've already worn it?!


Blazer: Papaya
White tee: H&M
Boyfriend jeans: Hollister (Surprising)
Flats: Rack

Had these two outfits to post, I have gotten behind getting ready for Hawaii! I really like pairing white on white, it feels like we're getting closer to summer when I pair it together. I think all white would look great with pops of colors in accessories! Hopefully we will get weather here soon enough for me to break out some more spring clothes :) Keeping it short tonight, it's past my bedtime;)

Sweater: ON
Red skinnies: JCP
Boots: gojane.com (I will wear these forever....)
Necklace: Charlotte Russe

Actually wore this awhile ago... I have been trying to transition away from darker winter colors and get myself into springy colors! I'm excited to just be able to put on sandals, it is so cold. Thank goodness I will be in Hawaii a week from now... 5 days people! :) Maybe i'll get some good shopping in then too, so you don't have to keep seeing the same dark colors ;) Well, I'm off to a baseball game... yes, in the pouring down rain, makes sense right?! Are you tired of my complaining??? :))

St. Patty's Day!

Another "what I should be wearing...." post:)

Green skinnies: only $49!
Black tee: Monki (only $20)
Tory Burch flats (I must get these too....)
Tory Burch clutch I know I'm obsessed... really, I do.
Marc Jacobs Katie Link bracelet
Yves Saint Laurent bracelet
Chain link necklace (Macy's, only $29.50) 

This makes me sad looking at this outfit! Wish I could have celebrated today, but my day was filled with work.... and also the fact that Blake is not here:( Anyways, I am loving this emerald green colored skinnies, it is perfection! Looks so good with nude, and will also look good in the spring with floral. I know that I have an obsession with them, is there such thing as fashion counseling?? Lol well I hope all of you got to/are having a great Saint Patty's day! Much love!

Rain, rain, go away.....




Chambray top: F21
Coral tank: F21
Black skinnies: TJ Maxx
Boots: gojane.com
Necklace: Charlotte Russe
Bracelets: Juicy, J Crew, Gift

Let's pretend the mess is not in the background....;)
I'm so tired, I can't even remember what I was going to write about. Probably how terrible the weather has been, it's making me sad. I read all these blogs about lovely ladies getting to wear their sandals, while I am stuck in 40 degree weather that is pouring rain everday:( no fun. Keeping this short, I'm off to bed.... I'll be back to complain think positive tomorrow!

What I should be wearing.....

But I'm not. I would be happy if my closet only contained J Crew and Tory Burch.



J Crew top
Jeans (?)
Tory Burch flats
MK Watch
Tory Burch bag
J Crew Pave link bracelet (My birthday is coming up, people.... ;) )
Prada sunnies

Oh I love the contrast of the turquoise to offset the neutrals in this pairing! Use this as inspiration to slowly add spring colors into your wardrobe. All of these items are on my "buy me immediately" list. Have a great Wednesday!

Longing



Tank: AE
White blazer: Papaya
Skinnies: F21
Boots: gojane.com
Black tank: F21
Purse: Betsey Johnson

Mmmm I love my new bag... first time I used it, normally I use bigger bags so I don't have to use a backpack for school, but I had to get this when I saw it at the rack about 2 weeks ago.... leopard and bows, whats not to love?! Wore this into P-town with some friends last Thursday night. I do love black (clearly) but I am hoping for some more spring weather.... bright colors are calling my name!! Got in a workout already today, it is going to be a good day.

Have a great Monday!

Blue skies= Blue pants



Black cardigan: Forever 21
Ruffle top: Boutique in Cali
Cobalt blue pants: Papaya
Leopard loafers: Kohls
Bracelets: F21, Wet seal, Nordies
Watch: Gift

There is something about these pants that I just love... I don't know what it is, but they are some of my favorities. I think the color really just makes my mood good! It was so nice again today, sadly I couldn't spend it outside like I did yesterday... stupid work :( It is going to be a long weekend again, I really wish I had weekends off. It's hard having a small social life:( Enough complaining, I hope you all are going to have a fabulous weekend filled with lots of fun and sun! ;)

Military green



Military coat: Nordies rack (Such a good deal)
Yellow tee: Old Navy
Jeans: True Religion
Flats: AE by Payless (really old)
Puzzle piece necklace: From my love:) I'll post a close up pic soon.. I'm in love with it.

I got this jacket awhile ago.... but this is the first time i've worn it. It was only $5, whats not to like?! And all the detail on it, I love finding steals. I never knew what to pair it with, and I liked the green with the yellow. I feel like it is boxy(?) and makes me look too "big", so maybe I need to find a way to make my waist look more narrow? Hmm.... anyways, it has been so sunny lately, I have been loving it! :) Washington never gets this nice in march, today it was 66! Thats saying a lot because normally it rains straight until about the fourth of July. Off to bed, way past my bedtime ;)

Sunshine :)

The sun has been shining which makes me so happy :) Want to take the puppies down to the park when I get back from class! There is such an urge to skip class when it's nice out... ugh... only 2 weeks left in the quarter, must think positive! Hope it is sunny everywhere for y'all. Have a great rest of the day:)

Chambray shirt: Old Navy, Skinnies: Forever 21, Boots: gojane.com, Faux fur vest: Boutique, Bracelet: Forever 21

Didn't even wear the vest, I looked outside and saw the downpour, so I took it off and wore my rain coat instead :( But good thing it was sunny today, so I got to wear it ;) Thats akward, tomorrows post will show this vest again...oopsie. I really like chambray, next on my list is a button down one. But my Hawaii trip is soon, so hard for me not to shop now.... And on that note, I have been eyeing these shoes for over a year now:



Of course had to get them in both colors, they were on sale!! $36, who could turn down that price?! Wanting to wear them for graduation, but that means I have to find a dress that matches! Ahh, the pressure. Hope you all are having a good Tuesday:)

New Hair



Sweater: Nordies Rack, Striped tank: H&M, Jeans: AE, Loafers: Kohls, Puzzle Piece necklace: Matching with the boy:)

I really like mixing patterns when they are similar colors. I'm not brave enough to go totally abstract... yet ;)

On another note, I got my hair done!


It;s much brighter, which I love, especially because it's getting closer to spring.
Any big changes for y'all??
