Anywhooo, here are some things I have been lusting over recently. From the practical to the simply 'I wish' end of the spectrum, I hope you like my picks!
Gisela Graham
Peg Garland – I have no real need for these, I just think they’re really
pretty. Maybe I could pin polaroids
up on them or little note-to-selfs…
Europe On A Shoestring- With uni
stress at an all time high, I think I need to buy this book to remind myself of
the lad and I’s summer plans to go interrailing.
It might be a long way off but it’d give us both something to look forward to.
Denim Skater Skirt – After buying
my first skater skirt for work off ebay a
little while ago, I’m really impressed with how flattering they are and am on
the look out for some thicker ones for winter.
Denim is definitely the way forward!
Cath Kidston
Fluffy
Stan Jumper – Like every other girl who runs a blog like mine I have been a
long time luster
of C-Kiddy
clothes, but this is the first time I
have genuinely contemplating parting with £70 for a jumper – it looks so cosy!
Perfect with some snuggly boots and tights.
Orla Kiely
Lilac Wool Trench – Undoubtedly my favourite designer at the
moment, I would kill to have every single thing from Orla’s
clothing, homeware and stationery collection. I can imagine anything much more
elegant than this coat over a big frothy evening dress. So fun but so
effortlessly chic.
Fujifilm Mini
Instax
8 – Autumn means pretty colours right? It would be ace to capture the change in
the seasons not to mention my
last few months of uni in the most hipster of ways. I
still think there is something so romantic about the Polaroid – no opportunity
for retouching or photoshopping,
just a moment caught in time. I’ll stop now before I start to sound too emo.
Kate Spade Watch – I seem to have the Worst luck with watches. Being honest, it’s probably
to do with my insistence on always
buying cheap ones. I know this might be a thifty
blog, but I guess there are some things you just can’t scrimp on. This Kate
Space watch not only boasts a dainty soft pink strap, it also has a mother of
pearl face which I think is absolutely beautiful. I can’t imaginee
it not going with any outfit.
Burgundy Brogues - I’m really annoyed that I didn’t
buy these when they were on sale in New Look a little while ago as I love the
rich colour and I think they’d look great with jeans for dressed down days.
Doc Martens 1461 in Crazy Horse –
Having loved my cherry red docks for over a year now, I feel it’s about time I
get them a little brother or sister. I really like the mottled brown of these
and think that being low top, they might go better with some of my longer
dresses – being only 5’’7 or so, I do
worry that a knee length dress paired with my ankle boot docs makes my legs
look a little too stumpy.
Vanille Noire Laurence Dumont for Women - I’ll let the blurb
do the talking
on this
one shall
I? ‘Vanille Noire is a pure and natural scent
of intensive Mexican vanilla mixed with spicy accords of pink pepper, cinnamon
and pepper at the top notes that are loomed over the heart of clove, rose and
ylang-ylang and vanilla background.’ Sounds amazing right? Vanilla
and Cinnamon are my two favourite scents and I ran out of my last perfume
(Lacoste Touch Of Pink) ages ago so this will definitely be making it onto my Christmas
list.
Gig Tickets - There are way too many people going on tour that I really want to see. I've got Los Campesinos and (rescheduled) Arctic Monkeys tickets in the bag and I think I'm going to treat myself to Elbow too in April seen as it is the night I finish uni. But if anyone wants to treat me to Justin Timberlake, Wild Beasts and/or Drake, it would be much appreciated...

Passport – Hardly something to lust
over, I know, but stupid Huddersfield and it’s stupid rain on my backpack on my
way into uni
has made the colour leech out of my passport, meaning a £72 replacement. I
can’t say I can afford that right now, so lets hope Santa
is feeling generous next month…
