It may only be February but the weather is already warming up and has me leaning towards the more colorful side of my closet. And of course, browsing my favorite online stores for new fun & flirty additions!

I’ve been crushing on this bathing suit from UO since it appeared on the site. I love the idea for mix & match for bathing suits but I’ve never done it—but now I want to. I want to with that suit! I love the bright pink top and the multicolored bottoms.

There’s just something so fresh about spring/summer clothes! Any favorites here?

With the weather warming up so quickly this year my mind is already on summer clothes (and swim suits). I guess I have been gravitating to soft pastels and corals!

I love how delicate and beautiful these tops are—but dishing out $60-$70 for it? It makes me cringe! I am crossing my fingers hoping my size will make it into the sale section! I’ve been going back and forth with this Lurex Skater Dress in mint. I have a wedding I’m going to next month and for some reason, even though I rarely wear shades of green, I keep thinking “I could totally pull this off.”

Looking for some cute gifts for Christmas? Christmas shopping makes me anxious! This + money usually leaves me scrapping gifts together last minute but J. Crew has you covered with their Very Merry Gift Guide. Here are a few that caught my eye!

(Gasp. $60 for a belt? Gaaah.)

wish to wear / stitched + adorned

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Just stumbled upon this cute little shop called Stitched + Adorned. All items are from independent designers and hand picked by the shop owners.

1, 3, & 5…please don’t sell out!

wish to wear / uo

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

This list could have like, thirty items on it I promise you! I don’t know if I’m just a weird person or something but on my favorites side bar, I have a folder for my favorite shops and I just make wishlists, constantly. Always adding things. Anyway, here are a few items from my Urban Outfitters folder.

If you’ve been following me for a long time, you may recognize that Deena & Ozzy tote from past wish to wears. I am just in love with it, but the reviews for it are so mixed that I keep teetering about buying it. And I can’t get over how cute & clever this eyeglass case is!

P.s. thanks to all who entered the giveaway. The winner is announced here if you’d like to see if you won!

wish to wear / old navy

1, 2, 3, 4

My mom has taken pity on me being a poor college student (and maybe reveling in the fact I’m the last kid she has to put through school) & is going to take me back-to-school shopping for the very last time tomorrow. Gasp.

She tends to stay away from crowded malls and their prices, so we’ll be probably be stopping by stores like Gordman’s or Old Navy, etc. I’m crossing my fingers on Old Navy because it crosses a few basic items off my “legitimate clothing list”. Ehem, see it here.

This has been another “is it fall yet?” post.

P.S. Mom, if you’re reading this…as J. Lo use to sing, “my love don’t cost a thing”. Love you.

wish to wear / motel

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

I’m drooling over striped tops lately. During summer months every girl seems to channel the whole “nautical” theme, so I like that Motel switches it up with color, fit, and style! Their Marley sweater in black and cream is definitely calling my name.

And guess what? Not only has Motel extended their summer sale but they’ve made  even more final reductions! Like Emilia dress (pictured above) in red and white stripes. Snag some sales here! + check out Motel’s tumblr where you can keep up with new arrivals & sales as well as see how your favorite bloggers are sporting their Motel purchases.

You can see photos of my first Motel purchase here!
