MY SPRING SHOPPING WISHLIST

• 35 Comments

Whenever I go into a new season, I always need to have some kind of wishlist or mood board so I can keep my shopping focused and not buy every weird thing I see at Forever 21. It sounds kind of crazy but it’s absolutely clutch for creating a working wardrobe. I don’t necessarily need these exact pieces, but I like to put all the items I’m drawn to into one Pinterest board so I can sift out the trends I want to focus on. From the below items, it was pretty easy to draw out some clear themes.

My favorite trends for Spring 2015:

Lilac
Pink
Gingham
Pinstripes
Windowpanes
Palm & tropical prints
Floral
Athletic-inspired

I just can’t get enough of that lilac color. It feels so fresh!
Sadly, I haven’t been allowing myself to shop while I save up for a major life change. I wish I could share what it is with you now, but you’ll find out soon enough! Someone buy some of this stuff and send me a picture so I can live vicariously through you please.

What’s on your shopping list?

  4. Very nice picks Colleen, especially the pink little bag in your first selection πŸ™‚ On my list are definitely a pair of Manolo shoes and a pair of well fitted jeggings. The ones I had in the past were all nice and skinny but every time I moved came down which wasn't very practical. Hope to speak soon xxx

  • About to take off into the stratosphere with the pegasus/unicorn/zebra hybrid! It's been real, Earthlings. β €πŸ“·@electricshelbyshocks β € JK! Maybe you've noticed I've been absent from IG lately (maybe not). I've been hella busy getting my freelance writing career off the ground. However, tings are starting to fall into place and it looks like I might have just a *little* bit of spare time for this black hole of distraction.β €
  • #fbf to exploring Mill Creek Park in Youngstown, Ohio with @morganwelsch. We've been coming to this park since we were kids. Right in the middle of the city, it's definitely a must-see if you're in Northeastern Ohio.

  • Me & my ghost just chilling at LACMA πŸ“·@cjean5
  • Take a ride on a pink flamingo with your best friend. Just watch out for nip slips :/ #makeeverydaysparkle β €
  • LIVING FOR my new Air Max Furies. They're perfect for treadmill sprints, but I can also wear them out and about because they're cool AF. Got them at @dickssportinggoods and frankly I consider myself lucky I only walked out with one pair of sneakers because they have all of the good gym to street shoes there. #sponsored
  • I <3 LACMA. Seriously want to get a membership. Anybody have one? Is it worth it? β € β €
  • WHAT'S IN MY FLAMINGO BACKPACK: You guys know that I carry this flamingo backpack on all adventures. Here's what I keep inside of it: 1) Nikon D3200 AKA "Big Boy" 2) Sinex because I'm allergic to everything and I can't go on an adventure when my head is all stuffed up 3) A Kindle for any adventure downtime 4) Headphones because you never know when you're going to need some groovy tunes 5) NYX butter gloss because I'm OBSESSED WITH IT 6) TOMS sunglasses because they're my favorite color and they like help people or whatever 7) My trusty notebook so I can write down my snarky observations and genius ideas 8) Uni-ball Jetstream Ballpoint Pen because it's the greatest pen ever. What do you keep in your adventure bag?β €
