During my last trip to Target I noticed an end-cap display featuring a new luggage collection by Design Love Fest blogger Bri Emery. I've followed Design Love Fest on and off for years and can't even remember how I stumbled upon them, but their photography is always inspiring and I always have one of their free downloads decorating my desktop background!

The luggage collection is inspired by Bri's love of the color blush, simple designs and graphic details, she writes in this post which shows the bags in action in Hawaii. Maybe the bags don't look like much on the racks at Target but once you see her photos, you'll be craving this pink carryon with the prettiest Dalmatian spot interior #swoon. No more boring black suitcases; you'll be able to spot yours coming down the carousel at the airport from a mile away! I'm ready to ditch my Target x Missoni carry-on for one of these beauties. Also loving this cosmetics case, just $9.99!

Target also has their outdoor collection out so I snuck a few photos of that down below as well. Pineapple door mat anyone!?

H&M recently remodeled their store at my nearest mall and it is a thing of beauty. For spring, they're showcasing lots of bomber jackets, high-rise and cropped denim (like this pair), and chunky block heels (like this pair). The palette was mostly muted tones - blush, olive and gray stood out to me.

I expected to see more yellow, one of the season's top colors, but only found the sunny hue on a few handbags and scarves...which come to think of it is the perfect way to add a pop of color to your wardrobe.

H&M always has you covered with the latest basics, like denim jackets, leather jackets, sporty hoodies, blazers, lightweight cargo jackets (love this one), and day-to-night blouses. My favorite pieces were the leopard print ones, like this sweater and this coat.

In yesterday's post I shared the perfect parka I picked up this past weekend at JCPenney, and today I'm sharing photos of the new spring styles I spotted in store! While I've read recent reports that JCPenney is closing up to 140 stores, I'm happy to report that their spring fashion game is seriously strong and worth checking out.

My favorite pick has to be this peplum hem top ($19.99 ) which looks so good in any of the five available prints - stripes or florals, you can't go wrong! I'd style the top with white jeans and cognac accessories (like this).

This bomber jacket also looks lovely and grown-up (some bombers are too trendy for me I guess!) and a steal at just $39.99.

These Gucci-inspired rose embroidered jeans are also on-point for spring, and just $29.99. The detailing looks really good in real life as you'll see in my photo below. There's also a flirty off-the-shoulder rose embroidered chambray dress for just $34.99.

Finally, this lace blouse by Worthington (shown above) looks absolutely gorgeous in real life - it's definitely a showstopper for your Instagram feed, but also totally wearable in real life. Both the blush pink and white are great options for spring and at just $24.99, you might be tempted to get both!

So, those are just a few of the things I'm loving at JCPenney this spring - check out my photos below to see everything I thought was noteworthy!

If you're planning on making a Target run after work or this weekend, definitely check out the spring stuff in the dollar spot! Everything is so. darn. cute. I love the little marbelized eggs, the bunny ear napkin rings, the festive straws, the egg tree decorations, the white ceramic rabbits - just about everything! It makes me wish I was hosting Easter or a spring brunch. I need to get on that...in the meantime, check out my pics to build your mental shopping list before you head to Tar-jay!

Yesterday I went to Forever 21 to return this oversized denim jacket I had purchased online. It looked so cool on the model, but on me it looked like something my school bus driver might have worn in the '80s. Trends, amiright.

While we're on the subject of returns, you may not have known that Forever 21 recently updated their return policy! The new return policy offers customers a full refund to their original form of payment within 30 days from the date of purchase. If I'm not mistaken, previously you had 21 days and would receive store credit.

So back to the story at hand: I was able to return my online purchase and I picked out a new denim jacket (here) that's still oversized - which is the look right now - but a bit shorter and better for my frame. I also scooped up a leopard coat for $12.99 plus an extra 30% off. Thank you Daily Style Finds for making me suddenly crave more leopard!

Ok, so here's what to look for this spring: As I touched on briefly in this post, sweet & sporty looks are huge - think pastel hoodies, sweatpants, crop tops, bodysuits, and denim.

Bomber jackets are still huge as are fit and flare skirts but now they're being styled with a modern rockabilly vibe (thank you 3.1 Phillip Lim for that).

I also saw lots of peasant tops and floral prints for that boho life, as well as camo print jackets (I own and love this one) and patchwork denim for that squad life.

If you make a trip to Forever 21, I recommend checking out the accessories and lightweight jackets for spring, as well as these must-have mules...yellow is my favorite! They come in 5 great colors and for just $24.90, these need to be in your closet.
