Shein Haul

Is it just me or is it finally starting to feel like summer! I am currently sitting outside on our patio couch writing this blog post and I am in pure bliss – just in case you couldn’t imagine what it looked like:

I’m sure we’ve all seen so many Shein hauls on Instagram, and to be completely honest- I was skeptical! I wasn’t sure about the quality of the clothes, or if they’d even come in before summer was over! But to my surprise, I ordered them on MAY 25TH- and got them yesterday! Incredible! AND I got 7 things for under 50$.

This spaghetti strap tank top is my favorite. I was looking for a thin strap tank top to wear with jean shorts, similiar to the ones from Free People and Urban Outfitters, but I didnt want to spend a crazy amount on a tank top, and 4$ seemed like a great alternative. This tank has amazing material, the straps are skinny but don’t feel like they’re gonna snap at any second! It is so soft, and has an extra layer near the girls for extra coverage! https://us.shein.com/Rib-knit-Cami-Top-p-1098648-cat-1779.html

I bought this adorable white skirt that honestly goes great with the tank top! I can’t wait to wear this somewhere once the world opens back up! I was so worried that this skirt was gonna be see through, but there is lining in it!! SO yay! The tassels and the criss-cross in the front make this such a flattering fit! I did size up in this and I am so glad I did! For a 12$ skirt- you can’t go wrong. https://us.shein.com/Tassel-Trim-Asymmetrical-Hem-Skirt-p-1065785-cat-1732.html

If you scroll through Instagram I can guarantee that you see at least 10 girls wearing biker shorts- and to be honest, I wanted to hop on this trend so bad, and I’ve tried and failed. Every pair I’ve bought did not flatter me whatsoever. So similarly to the tank, I wanted to try out a couple pairs without spending crazy money just to find out I don’t like the way they look on me! So I bought a spandex-y (yes I have my bachelors in English lol) material with mesh at the bottom for 5$ and a cotton pair that came with an over-sized black tee, (the material similar to align leggings!!!!!) for 12$. I definitely like the second pair a lot more, they land on my thighs in a flattering area, and it doesn’t feel like two sausages wrapped in saran wrap. Like that image? Thanks field hockey for the thunder thighs. https://us.shein.com/Contrast-Mesh-Biker-Shorts-With-Phone-Pocket-p-1092880-cat-2190.html https://us.shein.com/Drop-Shoulder-Tee-Skinny-Shorts-Set-Without-Bag-p-1141401-cat-1780.html

Honestly this purchase just had to happen- there was no rhyme or reason for it. Just had to. Wash yo hands. 5$https://us.shein.com/Slogan-Graphic-Oversized-Tee-p-1137266-cat-1738.html

I had the worlds smallest expectations for this set- I was positive it wasn’t gonna fit, or that the zipper on the skirt would of been like bright purple, or the shirt was sown inside out- I don’t know what, but I just thought that this was gonna be one of those “you had one job” kind of clothing fails. But I was soooooo wrong. This is my favorite purchase from this whole haul and now I want to go buy every other set from Shein. I sized up, and it fits perfect. The material is great, its the cutest print, the cutest detailing on the skirt, its so flattering! I could go on and on. Very happy with this, and with the price- $15$ https://us.shein.com/Ditsy-Floral-Knot-Side-Top-Ruffle-Hem-Skirt-p-1164419-cat-1780.html

And finally, I bought these adorable hoop earrings! I have seen pairs of earrings like this for 45-60$…… I got these for less than a dollar. https://us.shein.com/Colorful-Beaded-Hoop-Earrings-p-1209395-cat-1757.html

I feel like I should say, of course there are going to be purchases that are totally off- you can’t go into a mass purchase like this and expect the quality to be as great as a brand name company. The quality is good, but these items probably won’t last me years in comparison to buying something from JCrew or Loft!

Overall, I am so so pleased with my purchases! Tag me on Instagram in your Shein orders so we can spread the awareness of some cute clothes!

Be on the lookout for a bathing suit haul coming up next! Make sure you subscribe so you don’t miss out!
