Lust list this week

I missed doing a wish list last week, I can't even remember why I didn't! Anyway, I'm back with it now and here's what I'm praying Santa brings next weekend.



Knitted skirt from ASOS I love this, although I have a knitted skirt from Tesco winging it's way to me.



Killer shoes courtesy of River Island via ASOS just amazing!



We be jammin' lounge pants by David and Goliath. I LOVE their lounge pants and can't wait for the sale where they often have them quite reduced!



Christmas jumper from Cath Kidston. Because I'm cool like that.



Charmaine pink rabbit necklace from Go Jewellery. Little known fact...rabbits are my favourite animal.

So there we go!

We had a lot of snow overnight (for where we live). I found out the hard and cold way as Flash decided I was perfect for warming up after a little adventure.

Do you have more snow?

on the list this week!

This is probably the only regular feature I manage on the blog, my good old weekly wishlist!
Here's what is topping it this week!



Vila poncho cardigan from ASOS. This looks so cosy and perfect for layering!



Shorts from topshop. I don't usually bother with the topshop website because it's inevitable I'll fall in love with most of it and it's all out of my price range, but in a moment of weakness I ventured on there and found these shorts.



Eyeko toffee fatbalm! I've seen such rave reviews of this, and I'll probably order mine soon! If anyone is ordering from Eyeko don't forget to use my code! E12740



This amaze-balls ring from myflashtrash. At £95 it's well out reach but a girl can dream, oui?



Finally, POPCORN tea from tea pigs. One of my closest friends is a fan of this, and she introduced me to tea pigs in the first place, so I think this is a must try!

What's on your list this week?

I hope everyone is staying warm this weekend, I'm off to "Dunster by Candlelight" today. If I'm not too cold, I'll be taking lots of pictures I expect!

Winter Warmer Wish List

This week's lust list is inspired by the freezing temperatures and smattering of snow we've had dumped on us. We weren't actually predicted any until some time next week but someone clearly forgot to tell the sky that as we had what felt like a mini blizzard (typically, just as I was walking home from somewhere).
Today it's icy, and freezing, and I am not properly equipped. Hence this wishlist.



Earmuffs are something I have shunned in the past, but this year they are calling out to me. I don't *do* hats and my ears are suffering. Could these be the answer? Maybe not, but at only £2.50 from Matalan I'm willing to take a risk.





Animal print faux fur snood and mittens from ASOS. Never before a fan of faux fur right now my entire being is calling out for something warm and toasty...I think these might just hit the spot! I'm also crazy for leopard print, which just furthers the appeal.



There is something about this faux fur shearling coat from F&F at Tesco. Perhaps it's the percieved warmth, or maybe it's the gorgeous cut. Either way it's won my heart this week.



Last but not least is this Antler Ring by Vera Meat at MyFlashTrash. No, it won't keep me warm, but it would be a winter themed addition to my ring collection!

What's on your list this week?

on my wish list this week

Oh yes, it's Saturday which means it's once again wish list time!



First up is this midi skirt from ASOS. I have so much love for midi skirts right now; the perfect length for winter, really, as maxis (as much as I adore them) do tend to drag in the mud! I wouldn't mind the shoes, either.



This ring by Galibardy has captured my heart. I've actually been planning to treat myself, but it's currently out of stock.



Continuing on the jewellery theme, how cute is this origami necklace by Penny Masquerade at My Flash Trash?



Tabio have captured my heart again with these adorable leg warmers! So cosy, so cute.



And because I am very much a child at heart, I am head over heels for this breakfast set from dotcomgiftshop. ADORABLE.

this week's lust list

Happy Saturday!
It's time for another wish list from me...



Go Away I'm Reading mug from the literary gift company. I just think this is bloody brilliant.



Pink braided charm braclet from Temporary Secretary. I discovered this shop through twitter and have been drooling ever since! I love delicate bracelets and these fit the bill perfectly.



For the second week in a row Vero Moda have made it on to my lust list, this time with their structured, oversized top. (Picture from their facebook page)



And finally, I'm on the hunt for a pair of winter shorts. This velvet pair from ASOS are exactly what I'm after, but I currently don't have £30 to spend on a pair!

What are you lusting after this week?

This Week I Want

Time for another wishlist, I could probably make several for every day of the week at the moment with so much gorgeous stuff floating around, but here are todays must haves.



Long sleeve sequin dress from Matalan £28. Perfect for Christmas parties. I've seen this in store and it really is a beauty.



UFO necklace, £28 from Me & Zena. I LOVE their jewellery and already own the sweetie locket necklace. This is brilliant.



Suede dress by Vero Moda Very via ASOS. As with all Vero Moda dresses, this is just beautiful. I adore the grey version.




Oh don't tell me you didn't see this one coming! Wagner t-shirt via Very, £15.

Lust of the week: The Orphan's Arms

The Orphan's Arms are a thoroughly British label that produce some epically amazing printed tees.
They run a stall at Brick Lane market every Sunday, as well as selling their apparel online.

I'm current lusting over most of the tees available on the website, my absolute favourites being


"Keep lovers not friends" organic tee, £30

And this fabulous sweater, £35

So going on my ever growing Christmas list.

Santa, I hope you read my blog.

contrast

Over the past few months I have become more accepting of casual wear. I used to feel like I had to dress up every day or something terrible would happen; but actually I quite enjoy the comfort of a pair of jeans and a simple sweater and have started to embrace it more.

Case in point, yesterday:





These jeans were an absolute bargain from a Next clearance store, I believe they were £5. The sweater is from New Look...I'm still devoted to that shop.

Today was back to dresses though, the dress I am wearing is my new favourite. A sales buy from Monsoon Fusion, the colour and print make me so happy.





You probably can't see it clearly but the print is little apples.

Well, back to fashion...I'm still terribly behind on both NY and London fashion week, its a bit beyond my comprehension to be thinking of Summer when I still haven't decided on my Winter wardrobe! Top of my wish list for this season is this cutwork leather skirt from Oasis



Well, that's me done. I'm off to find a bank to rob to pay for aforemention skirt.

P.S. thank you so much for the incredibly sweet comments

lusting after liberty

MAC's Give Me Liberty collection has got my heart racing, I'm desperate for a few pieces for my Birthday, does anyone know if/when it'll be available on the UK website?

Hope everyone had a great Easter, and that you aren't in a sugar coma today <3

03.03 little wishes

Hello, how's your week going? UK lovelies...how amazing has the weather been the last couple of days? Finally a reprive from winter dullness!

Today I am sharing with you a few of the items off my current wish list. I've found myself veering away from clothes somewhat, having seriously run out of space and money
(we won't talk about the bargain dress I bought yesterday in New Look's amazing sale)
and moved towards the other essentials in life!



The one clothing items I AM desperate for is the perfect jersey maxi dress, and this one from Oasis at ASOS, £35 truly fits the bill. Perfect for layering now with tees and cardigans, and wearing bare armed with sandals all summer.





Also from ASOS are these two amazing pairs of tights, priced at £8 each they cost mroe than I normally spend on tights (mine typically come from Primark or majorly reduced in other places and rarely cost more than £2 a pair) but I WILL get these some way and some how!



Rounding off the ASOS lust is OPI nail polish in Absolutley Alice, £9.95. I own Mad as a Hatter from this collection and this is also calling my name.



Continuing on my Alice theme are these adorable earrings from loveheartsandcrosses a site I only came across the other day. Check it out...instant love. This pair costs £6.



And finally, what would a wish list be without a pair of shoes, and something from New Look? Well these cover both...one word...WANT. £35.


What are you lusting after? Any ideas for my next post? I miss posting outfits, though I'm sure you guys are glad of the reprive ;)
