Weekly Wishlist 001

I was going to title this post "March Wishlist" but there's so many lovely things out there that I want at the moment I didn't think it would all fit into one post. On another note, how is it March already! This year is flying by so quickly it makes me sad, I don't know whether it's because I only have a few more months left of university and I don't want it to end or because there's so much I need/want to do that it's making the time go faster. The only thing I'm hoping that is on it's way quicker is the better weather! We are in desperate need of some sun, and I want my spring wardrobe to start making an appearance. It's definitely one of my favourite seasons and it's definitely inspired this week's wishlist.



Weekly Wishlist 001






1. Blue Longline Relaxed Boyfriend Blazer: £35.00 As soon as I saw this blazer I fell in love. Baby blue, as you can tell from the rest of my wishlist, is one of my favourite colours! It's perfect for spring and this blazer is so versatile, it would look great with a dress or teamed with skinny jeans and heels.
2. Black Ditsy Floral Belted Playsuit: £19.99 Florals make up a great deal of my wardrobe, and this playsuit would make a welcome addition. I love the structured look of this playsuit, with it's belted waist, I think it would be a great shape for anyone. The red belt also adds a lovely pop of colour.
3. Navy Cut Out Polka Dot Playsuit: £25.00 I already own one polka dot playsuit, but this one is so cute I couldn't resist. It's the perfect transitional outfit for spring/summer: great during in the days with sandals and a denim jackets and then swap the shoes for some heels, ditch the jacket and you're ready for a girls night out.
4. Mini Tulle Skirt: £15.00 this skirt reminds me partly of one I used to wear when I was really little and partly of my younger sister's ballet skirt. Pink is not usually a colour I go for, but this is so pretty with the tulle overlay that I think it would make a great addition to anyone's summer wardrobe.
5. Pale Blue Gemstone Statement Necklace: £12.00 this necklace combines my love of pastel colours (blue, mint and yellow) with flowers. Everyone loves a statement necklace but this one is just a little bit dainter, making it the perfect partner for all sorts of outfits.
6. Light Blue Satchel: £28.00 The final baby blue item (for today), satchels are my favourite type of bag because they're so versatile and, to be honest, really pretty. Of course the colour caught my eye with this one, but the mini size makes it perfect for everyday use.

What items have made it on to your weekly wishlist?

Autumn Wishlist #1

Hey guys, can you believe it's nearly the end of August? Where has the summer gone? Or the year infact! But one good thing is that it means new clothes, as the shops say "out with the old summer stuff and in with the new goodies for autumn."
My bank card has taken such a battering lately, what with rent, deposits and admin fees for our new house, that I've actually started keeping a written list of things I like. I just note down the name, price and web link so I can keep a tab on things. There's nothing more annoying than finding something you love, but when you actually have the money to buy it you can't remember for the life of you where it was from!

Here's a few pieces I'm loving for Autumn


Autumn Wishlist #1



Dorothy Perkins oxblood bar bag £35.00
Dark burgundy is one of my favourite colours for autumn and this bag would make a great everyday staple, especially for uni. I could do with a bigger bag as my satchel is just not cutting it at the moment, maybe this will have to jump ship from wishlist to absolutely need... Maybe.
River Island cream cocoon jumper £30.00
Nothing says Autumn like a big, cosy jumper and this cream with go with anything from pencil skirts to laid back jeans.
Topshop checked tube skirt (currently out of stock)
I love, love, love this skirt! I really hope it comes back in stock soon. Funny thing is yesterday I found an old photo of me, aged 4 or 5, with my brother and I was wearing a dress in this exact print with a lace collar. Just goes to show that with fashion it's what goes around comes around again.
River Island gold tone clustered gem necklace £15.00
Statement jewellery is a favourite of mine, and the website actually recommended me this piece to go with the cream jumper, which I think would look perfect
Topshop map print shirt £35.00
This shirt caught my eye immediately when I was browsing the Topshop website, I love the quirky print. It would look great paired with some skinny blue jeans and tough black leather ankle boots.
Topshop MIGHTY black leather boots £45.00Okay so I already have some black ankle boots, but I love that these have a slight heel. Plus black goes with everything so it's fine to have another pair of ankle boots. Right?
River Island Multi-colour gemstone necklace £12.00
Another statement piece. The jewel colours would help brighten up any dull autumn  day and I like the way it's fastened onto a simple black ribbon rather than a chunky chain.

Are there any pieces you have your eye on for Autumn?
