September Wish List

September Wish List
Monster Print PJ Set, Topshop, £20 // Khaki 3 in 1 Faux Fur Parka Jacket, River Island, £100 // Black Bangle Watch, Vivienne Westwood, £190 // Homies Tee in Animal Print, Reason at Urban Outfitters, £35 // Black Hooded Biker Jacket, River Island, £55 // Recife Bracelet, Hipanema, £67


It's really annoying when you're brimming with creativity, but just cannot seem to find the time to write up all those blog post ideas you've got in your head. In my case, we've just welcomed two little puppies into our home, so as you might be able to imagine, life's been pretty stressful lately!

I completely fail to get excited about fall and winter fashion. All the bright summer colours are gone and everything's just black, cream, burgundy and khaki. How boring! I am quite looking forward to getting a new coat, however, which should keep me snuggly and dry in the dark, horrible weather.
One of my favourite things to do is pyjama shopping - don't ask me why, as barely anyone gets to see me in my PJs anyway, but I just love having cute and comfy sets and this monster one ticks all the boxes.
One way of brightening up a dark fall wardrobe is with colourful accessories and I love this bracelet from Hipanema. I usually get similar ones from Primark for a mere fraction of the price, but they tend to  fall apart very easily and leave a green stain on my wrists - maybe a little investment piece wouldn't throw up the same problem.

What are you lusting after this month?

March Wishlist

March Wishlist

Mesh Leopard Print Top, Forever21, £11 // Fake Diamond "Wings" Double Ring, Romwe, £16 // Trudy Jumper, Monki, £22 // Large Jewellery Box with drawer, Urban Outfitters, £40 // Evil Twin Dry Lightning Skater Skirt, Urban Outfitters, £55 // Grey Studded Collar Leather Look Biker Jacket, River Island, £65


This month features a surprising collection of items I need, rather than just want. Like this gorgeous (faux) leather jacket. I made it through all of winter without a coat, just because I don't like the one I have anymore and I didn't quite get round to buying a new one. So instead I just layered up like crazy to stay warm and as a result my current leather jacket is extremely worn out (and not in the cool vintage-looking way). I love the studs on this River Island version and the light grey colour instead of plain ol' black.
Another need item? Some sort of jewellery storage. I've been buying quite a bit of jewellery lately, but without anywhere to store it properly, it's all been getting tangled up in a corner of my nightstand drawer. What I like about this one is that it doesn't take up ridiculous amounts of space like those jewellery trees/hands/mini statues and the gorgeous tiffany-esque blue colour. Not that I have any Tiffany's jewellery to put in there, but a girl can dream, right?
And lastsly, not strictly speaking a "need", but I've realised that I no longer own a single skirt since my recent wardrobe overhaul, and long sleeved tops are also a little sparse now. The thing that keeps me off buying either of those is the fact that they tend to just be so, well... boring. Fortunately, this can't be said about the tie-dye type print on this Urban Outfitters skirt, or the amazing neon green colour of the Monki sweater. Anything neon and you'll find me all over it.
As for the rings and the cut-out mesh top? I just think they're pretty amazing. And a girl can never have too many pretty things, right?
