Spring Wardrobe Additions... part 1

Come Fall I love shopping for a handful of new sweaters and maybe a pair of boots. But once I have those few items I typically avoid the mall or any clothing stores until February. I tend to be pretty repetitive in the Winter, it is so cold that you wear your jacket everywhere and nobody sees what you are wearing under the jacket anyways so why put forth the effort.
When I sense the first hints of Spring or enjoy a sunny day I get excited to toss the sweaters in the basement and bring up my blouses and dresses. The urge to get out the sandals hit me first back in December while we were on holiday and I brought home a pretty decent collection to add my Spring/Summer wardrobe. Then I went dormant until this past week.

Here are a few of the items I am looking forward to breaking out in the near future.

I am an obsessive sale shopper. A good deal is all I need to feel good about bringing home new clothes. It honestly doesn't matter what the price is, as long as it was a good sale on something that I really wanted. This particular tank was a sale find at Saks, marked down to $30 I thought it was a steal but my excitement level went through the roof when the cashier took an additional 50% off!
Billow-y tanks and jeans are my go-to outfit most of the Summer.

This was a pretty recent addition from just this week, thanks to a huge sale at Forever21. My favorite outfits as a young girl were always baby doll dresses, and the resurgence of them in the last few years has been really fun for me. This one is a soft fleece and feels like wearing an oversized sweatshirt.

Forever21 dress (on sale for $4.99), Gap socks, Juicy Couture boots.

I am on the hunt for a new pair of Hunter wellies this spring and I am looking forward wearing it with those.

And another Forever21 clearance find!

Long maxi dresses are another favorite (basically anything romantic and girly make me giddy as you can tell) and this navy one was a staggering $6.

Forever21 dress, Jimmy Choo jewelled sandals.
With a long necklace I think this will be one of my favorite outfits this summer.

And because I didn't have time to snap more photos today, part 2 and 3 will have to wait for another day~
