5 Things I Really Want

Hi, September! I'm not sure what happened to August (or July, for that matter) but now that you're here does it mean I can really start day-dreaming about winter clothes without feeling like an idiot for wishing the summer away? (I'm taking this as a yes, by the way. Obvz.)

1. Melissa Ashanti shoes, £75, available in the UK from Shudoo.  

 This shoes are not only the perfect shape and the perfect walk-around-all-day-without-wanting-to-die heel height, but they're also plastic. I would wear these and stomp around all day long thinking, Go on London, rain. I DARE YOU.

P.S. Indian summer, if you're listening, don't think that I wouldn't love a visit from you. Because I would. I definitely would.

2. Bitching and Junk Food Shroud mac - wow oh wow oh wow. £65.

 


I like how Bitching and Junk Food suggest that you can wear the ruffle down or flip it up on this, "monk style". Monk style! Amazing. Why isn't more of my style monk?

 

 

 

3. Raf Simmons for Doc Martens tri-metallic boots. O. M. G.

 

 

These bad boys are going to appear for sale any day now and I keep trailing the web mindlessly for them. They do women's sizes, right? ...right?! I can only find a UK 6 on the website. I'm a 5, arghhh.

 

 

 

4. Whistles pencil sharpener ring, £35

 

 

Obsessed with this. This page is currently on my toolbar favourites so I can click on it twice a day and coo sweet nothings at it. I know something could be made like it (I could do that myself, for £1.50) but this is so lovely that I'm loathe to DIY a poor imitation.

 

 

 

Ok, four reasonable wishlist items that one day I might own if I stop spending all my money on gig tickets and cider. And now for one horribly unreasonable wish:

5. Erdem (I love you!) Aurelia silk printed dress

 

 

 

 

 

 

(£790 here at Net-A-Porter, if you were wondering how you could buy it for me. Oh, you weren't? Sigh.)

I love the ring! I wish I had that back in college. It would come in very handy for a fine arts student :)
