Amazon Spring Finds! 🌸 I recently did an Amazon o Amazon Spring Finds! 🌸

I recently did an Amazon order for some spring pieces I’ve had on my wishlist. Here’s what I found! 

1️⃣ Classic Trench Coat- I am impressed with this trench coat! The fit is great! I’m wearing a small! I love that it’s water resistant and has a removable hood which is perfect for spring weather! ☔️

2️⃣ Wool (faux) Trench Coat- This coat isn’t exactly what I was shopping for (I didn’t read the description) but I do like it a lot! It’s warmer than the other tretch coat which is nice for late winter/early spring. The fit is great! I’m wearing a small! 🧥

3️⃣ Brown Wide-Leg Cropped Pants- I love the color of these pants! They are super cute and versatile! They are high rise and have a cropped legnth! I’m wearing an xsmall. 🤎
