April Haul + Cooking
Now that we've been sheltering in place for two months now, I succumbed to shopping a ton online at Amazon, Old Navy, Target, and other places I've been influenced to by Instagram so this month's haul is from several places:
Here are a few American Eagle, Old Navy, Nordstrom, and Target try-ons:
Aerie leggings are super soft and comfy.
This tee is super soft but I don't love the fit so might do some custom snipping at the neckline and bottom. I also finally got influenced on Instagram to try Spanx faux leather leggings, which fit well in the cropped length on me.
This is a cute top that I felt wasn't cropped enough on me but it's on sale for just $7.50 now!
I've purchased many shoes over the time spent at home though I have nowhere to wear them. :)
The Vince Camuto booties and Caslon flats fit well but the Schutz Sandals were unfortunately a bit too loose on me.
I've been meaning to clean out my closet but never got around to it and instead decided to grab the jeans I was going to sell/donate and instead make them into shorts. I used my favorite pair as a template and am happy with how they turned out! All I did was trace, cut them, pull out the fray, fold up the hem, sew the sides, and iron the edges. :)
During this time, I've also cooked a ton and we actually only ordered take-out a handful of times. Below are some of the things I made, which has been nice to actually have the time to do:
