if i could change your mind (haul)

Hey guys! Sorry I keep disappearing, things have been a little hectic lately and I'm trying to find a better day to post stuff than monday or tuesday. Any ideas?
Anyway, here's what I've bought in the last month or two. I usually don't buy this much but I went shopping a lot recently and had christmas and birthday money to spend so I splurged. :)

Let's get to it!
So a while ago, my cousin and I went to a flea market where I bought these black, ripped, high waisted, vintage Levi's. They're super comfy and they're not skinny jeans but they're not super loose either. They're looser on the legs so I wear them rolled about two inches above my ankle.




I also bought a blue vintage gipsy-like maxi skirt with moons and stars on it. It's so flowy and comfy and pretty and I love it hihi.



I got a vintage Morgan mod-type skirt as well. It's short and has a sort of sailor yet preppy yet mean girl vibe. Sailor because of the six buttons on both sides of the waist. Preppy because I feel like I'm channeling my inner Cher, Tai or Dionne from Clueless. And finally, mean girl because it makes me think of Mean Girls. I will make fetch happen in this skirt!




Accessory-wise, I purchased a red rose wreath/headband. I love the headband so much. It holds really well (even when I run!) and I feel like a princess in it and come on, who doesn't wanna feel like a princess?! 




I also obtained (see how I'm using synonyms of buy, I have such good vocabulary) 3 pins for $5 -- one of Morticia Addams, one of Lydia Deetz (Winona Ryder) from Beetlejuice, and one of Tai (Brittany Murphy) from Clueless when she says "You're a virgin who can't drive." 
~Feel the sass~ 
The artist draws and makes the pins himself and he helped me pick which ones to take because there were so many and I am very indecisive!
I also got light blue/green nail polish from H&M for $1.
I've gotten nail polish from H&M before and so far it's worked really well, especially considering how cheap it is! 





Our second day of spring break, my friends and I had a girls day and went shopping (of course). We had a blast (woot woot) and one of my friends and I bought matching shoes from Forever 21 because we're adorkable.  
They kind of remind me of doc martens but 1) with a heel, 2) slimmer and 3) much more feminine. I also love the chunky heel. They're so comfy because while they're high, it's mostly because of the platform so the heel basically feels flat.
Plus, they remind me of one of my favourite blogger's style: Hannah from Daisies & Doc Martens!






I also bought a new bathing suit from American Apparel with a gift card from Christmas.
I love the pattern and how pale the colours are. I also really like the shape/cut. Plus, I really needed a bathing suit and had been eyeing this one for a while.





Last but not least, I bought this blue oversized flannel shirt and a grey crop top from H&M.
The flannel shirt is super soft and it's warm without being too warm, so I can wear it as either a shirt, cardigan-type-thing or even a dress with leggins and a belt.
The crop top is made of stretchy material and is also really comfortable.




Have you bought anything lately? What kind of things do you like to buy? 
This was my first haul post, what did you think? Should I do more?
The title is a lyric from If I Could Change Your Mind by HAIM.
Thanks for reading! x
