  • Wishlist Item(s)….graphic florals at H&M

    Graphic Florals H&M
    It’s been a while since I’ve done a wishlist item, but I spotted these whilst window shopping on the H&M site and couldn’t resist. Florals are always a big trend during Spring collections, but H&M have given them a little twist. Bright and bold on pitch black backgrounds, the prints aren’t quite the usual ditzy/pretty florals we’re used to seeing in Spring. The skirt in particular reminds me of the ol’ ? ink blot tests.
    They’re a little different and perfect for that instant wardrobe update.

  • Wishlist Item[s]…my infinite Christmas budget wishlist

    Christmas wishlist 2012
    Charlotte Olympia ‘Kitty’ flats | £465 | CharlotteOlympia.com | Beyond adorable, beyond lusting at this point now. Since laying my eyes on this little pretties I haven’t quite been able to get them off my radar. Seen on stylish Hollywood starlets like Taylor Swift and Alexa Chung, they’re obviously a blogger’s best friend.

    Mary Katrantzou cashmere scarves | £304 each | Net A Porter | It’s no secret that Katrantzou’s designs are hot property at the moment, the graphic prints splashed across whole collections aren’t just wonderful designer pieces but wearable works of art. Which is why something as simple as a scarf can be transformed completely thanks to Ms Mary’s magical touch.

    Anthropologie nipped brocade dress | £118 | Anthropologie.com | My love for Anthropologie knows no bounds, let’s face it I’d put the whole store on my Christmas list if I could! So I thought I’d pick something a little festive. I love the simplicity of the dress here, in gorgeously festive red of course, but it’s the embellished peter pan collar neckline that really catches my attention.

    Knomo London ‘Helena’ handbag | £235 | Knomobags | Surprise, surprise…not a Mulberry ;) I remember spying a couple of reviews of Knomo’s bags on a couple of fellow blogger’s posts a few months back and the site’s been bookmarked ever since. Not only seriously stylish, but every commuter/blogger’s prayers answered…a pretty handbag with a quilted compartment for stashing your laptop/ipad. No more bulky laptop cases! Wahey! Would definitely admit I would probably cry if I found this under my Christmas tree this year!

    Bottega Veneta ‘dark reseda’ cashmere jacket | £2,485.00 | Bottega Veneta.com | Since I started blogging Bottega Veneta has become one of my favourite designers to look out for during fashion weeks. So it’s no surprise that it’s made it on this list. This cashmere coat is just luxuriously preppy and will love amazing once the Spring sunshine comes around again.

    anthropologie dress Quinn

    Jacquard Circle-Skirt Dress

    £118.00 from Anthropologie


    The combination of knowing a certain Ms Agron will be *spoiler* once again gracing halls of Mckinley High as Quinn on Glee this season and my new favourite TK Maxx dress I wore to work the other day has definitely inspired this Wishlist Item. 
    I’ve professed my love for Anthropologie many a time both on here and on twitter. My love of the brand only grew after visiting the store on a trip to London a few months ago, it’s also on of the choice brand to dress the notorious stylish Quinn Fabray during Season 3 of Glee, and this love has only grown and grown. 
    So naturally I go browsing the website recently and I want to buy all the things! This particular dress caught my eye with its almost houndslooth print and ‘fit and flare’ style. I can see this working into an office wardrobe or dressed down for Autumn with boots/brogues and chunky cardigan. Either way I’m slightly dying at the hefty price tag…maybe I can find the look for less elsewhere.
