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.

Midas Touch

I'm pretty sure that the attraction to gold and money is human nature, at least I hope it is... I am totally drawn to anything gold, don't get me wrong, I love silver, but it doesn't have the same affect as gold does. Gold adds a touch of luxury to almost anything. I want it everywhere. In my closet, my house, on my face (so chic!). The color is more easily accessible than the metal, which is wayyy out of my price range. For now I will be looking for accessories that have a gold touch to them. Maybe even a pair of cute little greek sandals, fitting with the whole Midas story. I think that I am drawn to the color because it is so representative of the 20s, my favorite era. Whether it be 1924 or 2014, it never seems to go out of style. That's why I wish everything I touched turned to gold.. Ah, I guess I better be careful with what I wish for.

Emilia Wickstead A/W 2014

I don't care what anyone says, the Brits do everything the best. British style is definitely my favorite, and today, on the second day of London Fashion Week, I am a proud anglophile. Our neighbors across the pond are having their jab at fashion week, and I am applauding their every move. When I checked style.com this morning for the newest shows, I was screaming when I saw one of my favorite designers, Emilia Wickstead, had just shown her show. As always, she showed her signature voluminous skirt in one color, as well as suits in the same color. Some of my favorite looks were the snakeskin coat and the leather over coat. I just love how she can manipulate such simple ideas but make them special in the details. Take a peak at some of my favorite looks.

I am absolutely obsessed with gloves and socks with heels, and this is an ideal take on two of my favorite trends.

The print of this coat is gorgeous and the neckline is so chic.

That coat! And that skirt!

There it is again, and I love the color of that jumpsuit.

This is the type of dress I would wear on the red carpet.

This coat is MAJOR! *sigh*

Absolutely obsessed with this look. The emerald color of the gloves translates perfectly against the snakeskin print.

A leather undershirt? Brilliant.

I could live in this. A mohair jacket, chic white dress (perfect length), and metallic heels. Heaven.

All white everything.. except the shoes. I want a white stole!

Wish List

Okay I know that the 10th Commandment says "don't covet your neighbor's house" meaning envy and jealousy is a sin. If that means me wanting every piece of clothing that I see in street style photos is a sin, well then I better prepare myself to burn. Harsh I know, but how am I supposed to see something beautiful and not want it? In my eyes, it only pushes me harder and harder so that one day I will be able to afford clothes that are as much as my house payment. There's nothing better than getting a paycheck and going to spend it on something you've had your eye on for months (granted most of the things I want would take multiple paychecks...). Below is a list of things I'm wanting now, not all of them though, because we would be here all day. By the looks of things, I guess you could say I've changed my mind from yesterday, and now I'm feeling florals and pastels. As far as I know, bipolar style is not a mental disorder.. yet.
