While I've loved Bloomingdale's Aqua line for years, it seems they've ramped it up a bit this season and I'm suddenly hoping many of their Spring items will find their way into my closet.  What I love about this line is that they offer all the latest styles (this season it's bright colors, stripes, long hemlines, and floral prints to name a few) in high quality items with reasonable prices.  What's not to love, right?

Buy This, Not That

Forever 21
Juicy Couture

As we all know, florals are huge this season. I love all the bright floral prints on dresses, skirts, tops, and rompers. My new favorite floral piece is the huge Juicy flower ring shown above. So how could I resist when I found a ring that looked so similar at Forever 21 for only $6.80! I'm sold! What floral items are you craving?

Watching the Clock

Before last summer, I had very little interest in wearing/owning a watch. I had my cell phone to tell me the time, so what could a watch do for me? Oh, how I was wrong. Last summer Gabe bought me one of the gold Michael Kors watches for my birthday and I've been in love ever since. I find myself constantly eyeing a new watch, in a new color or shape, and wanting to bring it home with me. As I've mentioned here and here, I adore all the Michael Kors watches and would love to start a collection. The three trends that interest me most right now are watches in gold, bright colors, and the return of the digital watch! There are so many options at so many different price points, I feel like I can absolutely justify owning more than one. What watches are you eyeing right now?

How could anyone not love huge clear lucite beads? I'm certainly a fan and am especially fond of the Michael Kors Lucite watch. Michael Kors does it every time. I'm definitely in the market for one of these and with the current Bloomingdales sale situation, I might have to purchase something from my list.
