I was reading Bazaar and they had some editors picks for spring, some of which I thought were amazing, but of course way out of my budget until I’m settled down in nyc and know where my next paycheck is coming from. So I sought out some ‘steal’ versions, and some of them I like even more than the editors versions. Or maybe I am just telling myself that because I can afford them. Either way:
