I'm a sucker for a cute top that I can throw on with my favorite jeans to feel somewhat put-together. Lately my Instagram and Pinterest feeds have been blowing up with new t-shirt styles that I'm finding hard to resist! From crisscross details to casual ruffles, these tops are super stylish, easy to wear, and dare I say, practical. While some trendy tops can be hard to wear on an everyday basis (I'm looking at you, off-the-shoulder-bell-sleeve top) these 9 comfy tees will step up your casual outfit game with minimal effort.

After I checked out the spring fashions at Walmart, we swung by the Easter decor aisle which is already brimming with candies, baskets, and every bunny/carrot/egg themed item you could possibly imagine. I liked the old-timey decor items with a vintage, homemade feel the best, like a little twigs and raffia rabbit, or a door sign that said 'Happy Easter' in brown and orange burlap.

My kids gravitated towards the items in the brightest, most unnatural neon colors imaginable, but somehow I managed to convince them that organic fruit snacks were a better shopping reward than Trolls (the movie) plastic Easter eggs (because we all think of Trolls when we think of Easter...?). Score one for Mom! Check out my pics below to see if there's anything cute you'll be adding to your spring festivities - most items were priced between just $3 and $15.

Last night's Oscars red carpet did not disappoint, from Jessica Biel and Emma Stone's gold perfection to Kirsten Dunst and Brie Larson's timeless black ballgown moments. Then there was Taraji P. Henson who brought the Old Hollywood glamour, while Naomie Harris and Hailee Steinfeld brought two different visions of modern elegance to the scene in shimmering white creations. These are just a few of the stars who made my best-dressed list...but what about real-life inspo? Here I've rounded up 6 fashion and beauty trends you can rock right now, from spring's must-have eyeshadow color to Halle Berry's under-$160 heels...and more!

I bought this camo jacket and I love it. The print and colors are perfect, and it has a relaxed fit (I got the size small, so I'd say it fits true to size, no need to size up for that oversized feel).

A few days ago I took a trip to Walmart (you may have caught some of the shopping fun on my Instagram Stories, hint hint!) to scope out what's new for spring. Admittedly my store didn't have a ton of new spring merch out yet, but I was able to hone in on a few fun new pieces that I snapped for you guys.

Topping the list are some very colorful boxy 'silk' tops in stripes and floral prints for $6.44 that are fun for work or the weekend. Style these a la J.Crew or Kate Spade for a fashion-forward look. I couldn't find them on walmart.com but if I see them, I'll share the link.

Also if you're looking for new pastel jeggings or layering tops in hues like mint, pale pink or blue, Walmart has you covered. Look for Faded Glory, my favorite brand - they make the best cotton tees under $5!

In the accessories department, I spotted some fun tassel totes, lightweight boho scarves, and reversible faux leather totes - these are a great deal, easily look twice the price. Durable and great for work or the weekend.
