Wish List: Part Two

Here we are again. Well, it's only my second wish list, but only because I've limited myself to one every couple of months. I can't help the fact that I am a compulsive shopaholic so this is an edited version of my hopes and dreams.. even if one item is an entire paycheck for me..

This bag from Building Block is so architecturally sound and I just want to swing this around my wrist. 

I'm not usually a big bracelet girl, but this one, with the little eyes is slightly creepy but in a handsome way.

Beads + Bamboo Handle = *sigh*

My favorite color culottes. I'll take them anytime.

Have I said I'm obsessed with symmetry? Well, it's kind of my favorite thing.

Snakeskin is major and the boho twist is totally working

These remind me a little bit of Sophia Websters newest shoes with butterflies and other bugs. Bugs can be chic, too.

Lions are so regal and feel so British that I want to surround myself with them. This is my take on Cara's rocking finger tattoo.

Okay, how cute is this?! This little ring would make me feel like Bridget Bardot in one of my favorite pictures.

El Bordado

My personal style never seems to stop amazing me. What I really mean is that I am amazed at how often I juxtapose myself. One week I will look at a dress and say "wow that is hideous," and then the week after I am blogging about it! Take for example the style for this post. I have usually not been one for Mexican looking clothing, but after I was going through my old clothes from when I was little, I found a dress that my mom's babysitter brought her back from Mexico in the early 70s. All of the sudden I had this sudden rush of excitement come over me and I wanted to look up and buy every piece of embroidered clothing on the market. As I turned to my trusted Pinterest (follow my board here) I started to see it everywhere! The next day at school my friend Katey had on an embroidered tunic from Forever21 (similar versions here). I then started to look at eastern European looking blouses and tunics. These articles of clothing have a boho-chic vibe, which I usually am not a fan of (what did I tell you.. bipolar style). I don't know if it was because of Coachella that I was turned onto the style of the little dress that I found from not only my childhood but from my mother's. Alberta Ferretti's Spring 2014 show had major embroidery and now I realize that I loved the style even before I realized it. I will be looking for cheaper versions of the style from my trusted Madewell, JCrew, and Forever21. Take a look at some of my favorite street style and other pics.
