I've recently become obsessed with midi and maxi skirts. I love how elegant and classy they are. And after I saw this video of Brighton Kheller in this Reformation skirt with a high slit, I fell in love!! I've been thinking about this skirt for a few weeks - wanting it but not wanting to drop that much dough on a singular skirt (although Reformation is a sustainable website, and I'm sure I would wear this lovely piece a ton this summer on dates and frolicking around the city), so I've been on the hunt for a dupe. Then, my brilliant friend MaryAshlyn told me that she found a skirt just like it on Shein.

I had completely forgotten to look there. And guess what y'all,  I found a pretty great dupe for a fraction of the price. I found a few other amazing pieces during my massive hunt as well and thought I would share. These prices are super affordable if you're on a really tight budget like I am. One day, I would love to evolve away from purchasing fast fashion clothing, but for now, my budget isn't large enough to only shop at sustainable stores. So if you're looking for a few budget-friendly and cute pieces, check out the highlighted items below. I already purchased my favorite pieces below (will share a review when they arrive) and I'll be rewarding myself with some of the other items after I meet various financial, career and health goals this month. What goals are you going to reward yourself for this month?

P.S., be sure to read the reviews and look at the clothing measurements for each item. This is key when ordering from a wholesale site like Shein, and don't forget to check out their plus size section where there are similar styles!




I also wanted to share this amazing green polka dot dress with you guys. It captured my roommate's and my heart! So obviously I bought it. Let me know if you love it as much as we do. I am a sucker for maxi dresses with flirty elements like a wrap neckline and a high slit. This dress was too good to pass up.

 As always, thanks for reading this post and supporting me. I truly do love you.

Uh, I love Revolve and Amazon! I know that Amazon has done some shady things and Revolve can be a tad expensive, but they both have a hold on me for two simple reasons. Amazon offers affordable, cute items on Prime, and Revolve sells beautiful clothing that legit makes me feel like a princess whenever I wear them. Also, anything you buy on Revolve can be purchased through AfterPay, which means you can pay for everything through 4 installments with no interest!! I love this feature because it allows me to add a few pieces of luxury to my wardrobe without breaking the bank.






I also want to share my outfit details with you guys. I wore this to brunch yesterday, and I felt like a badass the whole day. The top I'm wearing above is from Revolve. I'm OBSESSED with it. I love any and all wrap tops, but the open back with the bow detailing is what makes this top special. It's an added element of sexiness, and I love it. I'm wearing the Flawless High Waisted Skinny Jeggings with an exposed zipper from Talbots. I grabbed them during a sample sale at the office, and I've never loved a pair of jeans more! They fit perfectly and make my butt look pretty damn good.  I couldn't find the exact ones on the site but I'm going to keep looking because I need these in white.





The adorable black and white bag I'm wearing is also from Talbots (shoutout to employee discounts). I love it and have been using it every weekend. It's so chic and classic. The black and white color scheme, gold hardware and unusual rectangular structure of the bag are the reasons why I knew I needed to add this purse to my collection. You'll be seeing a lot of it this spring and summer. Last but not least, my white point-toe stilettos are from Aldo. I got them for 50% off last fall, but DSW and Aldo always have great deals, so finding a similar pair shouldn't be too hard. White shoes have been one of my favorite wardrobe staples for a while.

I hope this post inspires you to add a few fun pieces to your spring wardrobe this season.  Let me know in the comments below what you've been eyeing online recently. Happy Sunday my friend, and thank you so much for taking a moment to read this post. I appreciate you so much more than you could ever know.
