What I want in my waldrobe Wednesday
ASOS
 |
| Cross Drop Earrings | ABLAZE Super High Wedge | Kitson Heart & Charm Bracelet |
Crosses make up a large section of my jewellery stash, as they do with a lot of people recently. They seem timeless. I've no idea why I love them so much, they just seem to work with anything I wear them with. I do however draw the line at wearing rosaries. Just no. When I wear my hair up, which is not very offten I like to wear big earrings to offset my giant face/head. The length of these is really fun, owning nothing like these I know really want them. Don't laugh, I kinda did the first time I saw these and I think that's why I want them. They are just so ridiculous, way to high. I also think my great-gran had curtains with the same pattern. Watching TheCurretBobbies is not good for my health. Having seen Lorein wearing the Chan Luu wrap bracelets I've been lusting after one. Sadly I can't warrant spending that much money on a mainly fabric bracelet, so I'll settle for this look-a-like. Eurgh settle for, how first world of me!
New Look
 |
| Parisian Belted Lace Dress | 3 Colour Block Shift Dress | Floral Cowl Belted Tunic | Sparkle Belted Tunic | Aztec Teardrop Earrings |
New Look will always hold a place in my heart, I don't think I've ever been in and not bought something! It's my go to shop if I need a particular outfit. Anyway, enough praise. First, these types of dress have always been around and I've just never been that interested. Wearing cardigans almost constantly, come rain or shine means long sleeved dresses pose a problem. This may be the first sleeveless dress in this style I've seen. Color isn't my 'thang. However I really like the color blocking 'trend', and I think the second dress will work without me looking like pixie sticks. I've always been a floral fan, dress, shoes, bags, anything. And this was just another dress that caught my eye. I loved this dress the moment I saw it, it reminds of 90's school discos. No idea why. I most likely layer this with some kind of sheer shirt or long jacket.

| Brown Print Chain Slipper Shoes | Light Brown Faux Fur Coat | Black Agate Stone Ring | Black Overszied Feather Bag |
Topshop
 |
| Grey Drape Front Blouse | Pleated Neck Dress | Grey Floral Print Snood |
I was disappointed with how little I wanted from Topshop, normally I find around 10 things I believe I need. But alas, better for my bank balance. The blouse is the most amazing colours, that slight dirty purple grey. Well I hope it is actually that colour compared to just a plain grey. The shape of it is really intresting and unusal, it'd probaby layer is with the Sparkley Tunic from New Look above. Wine colours are everywhere for Autum/Winter and this is one of my favourite dress so far. I'm always a fan of layer sheer materials, to be honest I just low layers! The tan belt really pulls the whole thing together. Pastal colours are a staple in my waldrobe, but I don't actually have many iteams of clothing in this color range. I feel they make me look larger. However I own many shoes, bags and scarvles in a range of pastals. So this snood would fit in perfectly!
What are you lusting after this Wednesday, or this week for that matter?

Sunday Round-Up
Well Hello 50 followers! Where did you all come from, are you finding your stay pleasurable? I do hope so. Please address all complaints to management. This week has been busy! Unpacking may now have become my least favorite activity ever. TBH if I had packed better in the first place I may have made my life a tad easier for myself. However in the course of this I have found I love decorating my little house. Granted I have to work around the existing carpets, colors and rooms but we have still been able to put our own little stamp on the place.
My boyfriend had to hold me back as I raced around Ikea popping everything I saw into the trolly (read giant yellow bags). When I get into Ikea I tend to believe I've won the lottery and have an unlimited budget, which sadly I don't! I still no where near done on my quest to make everything perfect. You shall come along on the journey with me.
Do you love Ikea as much as me? Or even more so? Impossible.
Another of my loves in life in ebay. This week I've picked out a few things.
1. I've been lemming after some more Inglot eyeshadows since I received some in a swap a few weeks ago. As I live no where near the UK store and you cannot order from their website it's rather hard to snap them up. However someone from Mac_cosmetics pointed me in the direct of a seller on ebay based in Poland. I cannot remember the exact math but I knew it works out cheaper to buy them through this seller. Can be found here.
2 & 4. Honestly I still cannot believe I don't own this polish somewhere in my epic nail polish collection. Orly rage is the most perfect rose gold color and it everywhere! I picked it up from this seller. This is also where I where also chose Essie Nice is Nice. From swatches this seems like the most perfect lilac. Expect a NOTD featuring this soon.
3. Lily featured these on her blog yesterday I think. Her lashes always look so perfect, so for 99p I didn't think I could really go wrong with these.
5. When the Artsy Ring by YSL everyone wanted one, some still do (Hint: Me). I just can't justify spend over £ 100 on it. But it's over the top, tacky and everything I look for in a ring. There are a number of different knock of floating around ebay, but I picked mine from this seller.
6. These beauts are clearly a knock of the Zoe Black Boots by Sam Edelman. But I just don't care. I feel I own enough designer goods to warrant not always buying the real deal. And at £26 who can say no?! Grab them here.
Any one else have a fun week of unpacking, or shopping?

| Boots - Primark || Brouges - New Look |
These two pairs above are in fact related, in the way shoes can be. I wore the New Look Brouges shopping in Bristol. On the way to Primark they began to rub like a bitch, it was the first time I'd worn them without tights. So I limped and hobbeled around Primark, and came across these Boots. I'd seen them in my local store, but they didn't have them in my size, so bugrudingly I left them on the shelf. So I was stoked when I spotted these sitting on a rack with a classy 'Only £3' sign sitting atop. I ran (limped) on over a grabbed these up. They were not my only purchase, but they were my life savers that day. I stopped in Starbucks on the way back to my car, order my large skinny Latte with a shot of hazlenut. I gingerly removed the Brouges and slipped the boots on, and it was heaven! And these two have been my staple go to shoes since.
I rock the boots when I want to toughen an outfit up and the brouges with, well, everything.
Am I the only one who does this? The only wearing certain shoes for a long time, or telling stories about them?
