Shopping Haul Breakdown

I have gone completely overboard lately with my online shopping. Today we are going to recap everything I’ve bought and what I think about them.

To save you time reading, if you are interested, I did a TikTok video showing some of the stuff I bought that you could watch here.

SHEIN

I have placed several SHEIN orders lately and for the majority, they’ve been total slays. This most recent order was all yeses, with one no, and the order before had four returns. I’ve even turned to SHEIN lately for Disney style items! Who would have thought…not me! Let’s breakdown my recent SHEIN orders:

SHEIN Essnce Ribbed Knit Round Neck Bodysuit (set of three) – this was an amazing pick in my opinion. I’m always so hesitant to get bodysuits, either on Amazon or SHEIN, because of the sizing and quality. However, this three-pack was an instant SLAY. It’s extremely flattering, the quality is really nice, and the girly details are even better in person. I’m definitely ordering another set with more colors.

Acelitt Allover Print Tie Shoulder Ruffle Hem Cami Dress – this dress is absolutely beautiful in person. I was a little worried about the length, given that the dress is a maxi, but it isn’t so bad. I will probably get it hemmed just a tad, but overall, the quality is good, and the fit is extremely flattering.

BZB Denim Wide Leg Overalls – I saw Avery Wood’s wear the charcoal, Free People, version of these overalls and I knew I needed to find a dupe. SHEIN gives Amazon a run for their money with their dupes, so when I found this on there it was an immediate add to cart. It actually arrived, OVERNIGHT, from Amazon. The fit is oversized, but the length is exactly where I need it. I am already plotting where I am going to wear these because they are so comfortable and soft, and the fit is extremely flattering considering they are oversized.

SHEIN EZwear Furry Faux Mink Button Front Cardigan – I already own this in a butter yellow color, and it is the absolute softest, most comfortable, and coziest cardigan I own. I love cardigans and I have a huge collection of them, but there was no way I was not ordering this in a neutral color. It’s the most perfect cardigan for my work, year-round.

American Casual Slouchy Wide-Leg Cropped Jeans (barrel jeans) – the ultimate Free People dupe is this pair of barrel jeans from SHEIN. I actually ordered the Free People version of these (re-purchased the pink, which I am wearing right now, and bought the gray/charcoal version) and had to return the charcoal version. There was no way I was not keeping the pink ones, considering I had to size down and they are my favorite pair of jeans, but the charcoal version and these from SHEIN were almost exactly the same style. For the price difference, I had to return the FP ones. These don’t have a huge stretch to them, but they’re not cardboard material either. The fit is flattering for sure.

SHEIN MOD Women’s Glitter Star Frayed Denim Shorts – I absolutely LOVED these shorts. Too bad I can’t afford tickets to Taylor Swift, because they fit the theme perfectly. I am thinking of wearing them for the Miami Hurricanes v. Florida Gator’s football game at the end of the month (TBD). The material is really soft and comfortable, they have a good stretch to them, and the cut is excellent. I definitely don’t foresee myself chaffing at all.

Women’s Solid Color Camisole & Flower Pattern Shorts Pajama – I thought these pjs would be cute for the summer so I ordered them. So far they’re not just affordable, but super comfortable.

SHEIN VCAY Drop Shoulder Pocket Patched Denim Dress – I saw this dress on someone on TikTok and then found it on Amazon (for $60). Although it was more than I wanted to pay, I considered it, until I went to SHEIN and found it for even less. I tried the dress on immediately and it was such a good purchase, my aunt is going to order herself one too!

SHEIN In My Nature Women’s Jumpsuit – this is another total Free People dupe that turned out to be an instant slay. I will say my ONLY complaint is that it does not come with bike shorts or underwear underneath, so you have to wear something modest in order to prevent any slips. I wore my SKIMS boy short underwear, and it worked perfectly, but that’s something to keep in mind.

Stoney Clover Lane

As I mentioned before, I am addicted to Stoney Clover Lane. I cannot tell you how much I’ve spent this year alone at this store, because no… but I can’t stop either. It’s a literal problem for me. HOWEVER, I am going to girl math this because DUH…I bought my older sister and best friend their birthday presents from them SO only two of the four orders are mine (LOL). Whatever works to satisfy my delulu brain honestly…

Anyway, here is the rundown of what I’ve purchased in the last two weeks from them:

Pouchette Crossbody Bag (90210) – I have been wanting this bag since they launched it earlier this year, but I didn’t want just any boring color. When the Beverly Hills Hotel x Stoney Clover Lane collection dropped a new collab I knew I was going to get it. When I was in LA, in January, I bought the flat front vegan leather pouch from the BH x SCL collection that had previously launched. I use it for everything, so it was a no brainer when I saw the green version of this baby for sale (although I seriously contemplated the palm tree print…I just felt like it limited my use), I even had my full name embroidered onto the pouchette (I HARDLY EVER use my name, I typically use KJ). This specific version has since sold out, but they have the core colors still in stock. You can also pre-order the Park & Beach pouchette for a limited time (more about that collection shortly)

Travel Pouch (Stadium Bag Hack) – for my older sister’s birthday, I decided to make her a Miami Dolphin’s stadium-approved purse without paying for the SCL Stadium bags. This hack, I learned via TikTok, is a game-changer. Basically, you purchase a travel pouch (averages $38 before customization) and then (should you choose) you can personalize it. For my sister, as a season ticket holder for the Miami Dolphins, I added their patch to the bag. I ordered a strap on Amazon to pair with the bag, along with the D-rings I’ll need to create the crossbody bag itself. I can’t wait for it to arrive this weekend. I hope she likes it.

Park & Beach Jumbo Fanny Pack, Park & Beach Classic Tote, Park & Beach Mini Pouch, Park & Beach Crossbody Strap – this is everything I purchased in the fourth Park & Beach x Stoney Clover Lane collection that launched. Several pieces are sold out, but they are doing a pre-order for a short period of time (if you are interested). I got super lucky and everything I wanted was in stock when I checked out. During the last collection, In February, I bought the Park & Beach Heart Box and Park & Beach Small Pouch (with the Zoe patch added). I even got the bag charms from this collection, that unfortunately aren’t included in this fourth launch. I’m a huge Zoe/Park & Beach fan, so this was an absolute YES.

When they did their Diet Coke re-launch, I bought the Diet Coke Sweatpants and the Fountain Diet Coke Glitter Bag Charm (I already own the sweatshirt and some pouches).

For my best friend’s birthday (CARMEN IF YOU ARE READING THIS – GO AWAY) i bought her the Iridescent Disney Mickey & Minnie Mini Pouch (additional to some other little surprises I got her).

Then to finish off this haul, I bought the Keychain Wallet (in Strawberry & Wisteria) and a travel pouch pre-designed (with stars – I think it has since sold out).

Amazon

Let’s go back to mid-July when I started shopping on Amazon for my most recent Disney trip, because these outfits were so on point and they came from Amazon.

What I got for Disney:

One of my Magic Kingdom outfits consisted of a Castle Button Down (Magical Shirt for Women Magic Kingdom T-shirt Hawaiian Shirt) + YIOIOIO Onesie (Square Neck Workout Ribbed One Piece)

MYHALF Magical Castle Graphic Print Button Down + Forever 21 Disney Athletic Dres (not from Amazon, but it went with the outfit so whatever).

The following Apple Watch bands (they fit my ultra perfectly): Disney Snacks band + Winnie the Pooh band.

Cooling towels (a total MUST HAVE for Disney in the summer).

I bought my nephew this camera for his 6th birthday and my god son got these pajamas for his.

Other Purchases from Amazon:

I needed a strap for my sister’s bday present and the d-rings (these are the only ones that have worked) and then I also bought my best friend a few things to go with her SCL pouch (this in the initial/birth stone for her hubby and son – I have it too!). She also asked me to get her a new pair of the slippers I got her last year, so I did.

I wanted the Free People barrel jeans with the stars, but did not want to pay the price so I got this Amazon versions instead (they came with hearts, not stars – but it’s fine!).

Lastly, I bought three of my best friends this book after I went to the author event at Books & Books. I’m obsessed with the author and I’m just starting to read it myself. It’s called Call it What You Want.

Free People

We The Free Good Luck Mid-Rise Barrel Jeans – now THESE were an immediate yes, never going to return. I already had them, but I lost more weight and had to downsize. I literally didn’t even think twice about it. I’m currently wearing them to work LOL not only are they comfortable, but the fit is so flattering, and the color (Pastel Pink) is to die for.

CRVY Venus Barrel Jeans – these fit so nicely that it physically hurt me to return them, but I could not justify the cost when I got the same pair from SHEIN (obviously in a different color, but still). If these go on sale, I’ll probably buy them. The color is spectacular, and I really liked them, but the cost…UGH

Get Your Flirt on Shorts | Free People – this is what I ended up getting after I returned the barrel jeans, in a pink color and a dark turquoise color. They are so freaking comfortable. I want to get another handful of these before tax free ends.

SKIMS

My most current SKIMS order consisted of their new relaxed tee t-shirt in three basic colors: white (snow), gray (light heather), and black (onyx). All three were in my true to size, medium size, because they’re a little more oversized. I also re-ordered two new long tanks (soot/kyanite) one size down to see how I liked them (I like to get the XL in this style and the more fitted t-shirts).

Earlier in July, I placed the following order during their semi-annual sale:

COTTON LOGO DIPPED THONG (5 PACK)

FITS EVERYBODY DAYS OF THE WEEK PANTY (7-PACK)

FITS EVERYBODY BOY SHORT (5-PACK) – CHERRY BLOSSOM ROSEBUD MULTI

FITS EVERYBODY CHEEKY BRIEF (5-PACK) – CHERRY BLOSSOM ROSEBUD MULTI

WEIGHTLESS DEMI BRA – JASPER, BRONZE

Honestly, at this rate, Skims should sponsor me. I am 100% a freaking addict. My SKIMS obsession gives my Stoney Clover Lane obsession a run for its money.

Target

Blake Lively’s new haircare line dropped on Sunday, and I already bought the products (and used some, TBD on results).

I was able to snag the Blake Brown Sandalwood Vanille Fundamental Strengthening Shampoo, the Blake Brown Sandalwood Vanille Fundamental Strengthening Mask, and the Blake Brown Bergamot Woods All-In-Wonder Leave-In Potion. I’ve used the shampoo and hair mask once, so stay tuned for a full review.

I also had to repurchase another pair of Universal Thread jeans that I love, due to needing a smaller size. They’re just like the barrel jeans I’ve previously mentioned from FP and SHEIN but from Target.

Another repurchase, of products I’ve previously mentioned in other TikTok videos and posts, were the Rael Beauty Miracle Clear Cleanser and Serum. I’ve been using them for over a month, and I am 100% obsessed and use them daily.

Lastly, I bought these Auden pajamas in the palm tree print, baby blue, and in black.

TikTok Shop

I posted about these purchases already, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t include them. You can read the full article here, but these are the products I bought from TikTok shop that I’ve been using daily:

• tarte™ creaseless creamy concealer duo – 27S light-medium sand + concealer brush
• tarte™ tubing mascara black & brown duo
• Benetint Jelly Donut (Value Set) – Benetint & High Beam
• Desert Island Duo + Duo Brush Face (TikTok Viral Bundle) – Desert Island Duo 1.5 + Duo Brush

A majority of these purchases, with the exception of what hasn’t arrived, are in the TikTok video I referenced earlier. Also, I’ve linked almost all if not most of the items in my TapTo.Shop link. You can find that here! You should follow me on TikTok as I try to expand my reach 🙂

Stay tuned for future shopping hauls…I’m definitely a shopaholic so I don’t expect you have to wait long (insert cry laughing emoji)
