Summer Collective/Back 2 School HAUL

Hello everyone! So now its nearing that much dreaded time of the year... when summer is coming to an end and the back to school season is starting.    But what I do enjoy about back to school is shopping! So this haul I will be showing you my back to school clothing and some of the clothes I have bought over the entire course of the summer, from wholesale markets to F21 to birthday gifts.



WHOLESALE MARKET ITEMS:

~Pinkish colored crop top with a rather too big cutout in the back, but its good for those hot summer days. The only thing I do not like about this top is that the collar can feel a bit too  tight sometimes. $5






 ~Light wash denim vest with a detachable hood. I think this is a great piece for layering, especially in the autumn/ winter. $10










 ~Crochet flower crop top. It is slightly see through but made of a good thick durable material. $5





 ~Tribal? print crop top with a sheer material. The print actually reminds me of a pair of shorts I bought at the the wholesale market at the beginning of the year, which you can see here.  $5




~Striped crop tee. I love this top but its a tad too cropped for me. If it was slightly longer it would be more wearable, especially for school. $6



~Just a simple beige colored cardigan, a good basic for the cooler days for layering.  $5






~This top reminds me of ombre cotton candy and summer fairs with how the pink and mint just fade into each other. The back of this top is pretty interesting it is twisted, opening into a cutout. (Brand: Sweet Claire)  $0







~These black shorts are really really high waisted, kind of too highwaisted for me, but they were part of a good deal soooo... $5









 ~A regular tan/beige colored maxi skirt for pairng with virant crop tops.  $5



~A pretty sky blue (the picture doesn't do the color justice) high waisted shorts that I've already worn with quite a few items proudly.  $10



~Another pair of highwaisted black shorts, similar top the other pair earlier but these are the perfect amount of high waistededness? ;P length? I am not sure the word for how high the shorts go up.  Anyways, I like these way better than the other pair. It is also quite comfortable.   $5




~Light wash high waist shorts from the same place the blue shorts were from. Also very comfortable and cute with everything.  $10







BIRTHDAY GIFT:

~ I got this navy blue polka dot crop top from my aunt (Thanks Ba Bo!!!) for my bday and I love it! It is from Macy's if anyone was wondering.







 G-STAGE:
  ~ is amazing little store that I believe is only in California but here's the link to the website... click here for GSTAGE and has a lot of up to trend clothing, including these adorable pair of shorts. They are not only high waisted and acid wash but have this really cool triangle cutouts on the end. $25?






FOREVER 21:
 ~Turquoise, black, and lilac floral skater skirt...really comfortable and cute!  $8





 ~Grey acid wash denim vest  $10?

Dressed up Summer OOTD

 Heyy guys! Today is yet another outfit of the day! This one is a bit more formal, perfect for those more formal events but at the same time will keep you cool on those hot summer days/ nights. I really like "high low" dresses or skirts, because of how you can either look super cute and casual or nicely dressed up, depending on how you style it. It also looks very classy and put together for any season. If you want me to do a casual version of this dress, just leave me a comment below. I feel like this dress is pretty versatile so I could either dress it up, even more with some nice jewelry, or dress it down with a casual cardigan and flat shoes. Oh and by the way sorry the picture came out really bright, the day I took these pictures it was quite sunny out and I also didn't realize my camera's exposure was set really low!


The Outfit:
Lace White "high-low" dress- Forever 21 $10
Brown belt- Target?
Strappy pink wedges- Micheal Antonio
