Recent steals & jewels

I've been having the toughest time finding clothes lately. I recently took a trip to California and I was going crazy finding items to wear or buy to bring. I ended up going out two days before and picking up some plain baggy tops, and a few sheer ones from rue 21 for $3 bucks each.

Here's one of them. While they're fine, I really don't have much for the upcoming summer. 

While I was there I didn't so much shopping, more hiking and adventuring. I stopped at zara and got a few plain tops (again, more plain!) but that was it. I decided to try urban outfitters last night and picked up some good deals from them so hopefully this is a start. Any ideas for reasonable summer shopping?

I'm excited about the versatile blazer, I always look in my closet for a light weight, casual colored blazer and come up empty handed, so hopefully this one works out.

I also am super stoked about this gorgeous dress, which is modest but has an edge to it. I continue to struggle to find items that aren't straight from 'da club' yet are still fresh. 

And this top, which is really fun for summer, especially paired with a delicate necklace,

I layered it here with my bluejbeads necklace and bangle, with some alex & ani. My other half surprised me on my trip with them along with these
