h&m finds

what started off as buying a pair of light blue sweatpants for my cousin turned into this:

slingbacks

asymmetrical front vest

ribbed striped long sleeve shirt

ballet flats

light blue sweatpants

all i needed were the sweatpants, but of course, just me being me, i refuse to pay for shipping. so the obvious solution was to buy more stuff.

im seeing slingbacks everywhere and truthfully, I'm here for it! they are a perfect blend of dressy and casual.

speaking of in-style looks, i'm loving the suit vest trend. i am planning on wearing this with wide leg black denim. and at 15 bucks, you can't beat it!

i am obsessed with stripes, so naturally when this shirt came across my screen, i immediately had to have it. i really like the ribbed fabric as well, it gives some dimension to an otherwise plain shirt.

i've had my eye on the Chanel S/S ballet flat ivory and black colorway for a while. its been a long time since i've worn ballet flats... the last time was probably when the whole Tory Burch flats were all the rage, circa 2006. i wasn't ready to commit to the Chanel just because $975 is a lot of money for something i'm not entirely convinced of. again, these cuties popped up while scrolling through the h&m site and for $27, i couldn't say no! i'm such a sucker for anything that seems like a great deal - and based on my closet and drawers, it shows.

my cousin is in a sorority and wanted me to make her a sweat outfit (yes, i am a serious cricut user) for event they have coming up. she wanted light blue pants and a white hoodie. the latter wasn't a problem finding (on amazon), but i did a deeeep dive to find these blue ones. they feel so soft!
