Recent purchases

It's only January but is it crazy that I'm already thinking about spring break? I don't think I'm alone on this one. Even retail stores have started bringing in their new styles for spring 2011. My recent purchases have been bought with spring 2011 subconsciously on my mind. My friends and I are planning to take a cruise to the Bahamas in March for spring break so it felt odd buying a swimsuit in January but I just had to have it. I went to Target to buy a planner for the new year and left with a swimsuit.

Bandeaus are not my preferred style of top but I couldn't pass up the coral combined with sparkly gold and white.



Yesterday I was at forever 21 and just when I thought I'd leave empty handed, I walked by the sales rack, (which I usually don't bother doing because I don't have the patience after going through the whole store as it is) and I found these nautical inspired shorts. I love the way they tie up and the rope gives them a rugged look. I want to find wedges to wear with these shorts to give them that spring touch. Best part? They were on sale. Who doesn't love a good sale item?

Can you tell I'm super excited for spring?
