Wednesday Wishlist 16th October 2013

The weather has taken a turn for the worst, the nights are drawing in and to top it all the clocks change at the end of the month!  I've been back on the internet looking at pretty things with an empty purse and a warm cup of tea.

I thought I would share a few more of my top shopping items with you guys. 

ASOS CURVE Longline Jacket In Tartan
This jacket is absolutely gorgeous, and for those of you who have a spare £85 can pick this up form ASOS. This jacket is available in the ASOS Curve range as well as their... ahem... 'Skinny' range.  Now as much as I have fallen in love with this jacket I cannot help think "Is this a practical jacket?".  The two major pit falls I find are: 1, It is an open front design, 2, It is dry clean only.
Marc By Marc Jacobs Henry Skeleton Burgandy Watch
I featured a watch on my wish list last week but just look at how beautiful this Marc Jacobs watch is! This is bound to be a hit at Christmas, and feature on many Christmas present lists.  At the moment I absolutely love burgundy so a burgundy watch is definitely going to appear on my wish list.  I came across this gem on ASOS and it is priced at £185.

My final item is not fashion related.  I have millions of postcards and I love to send them while I am on holiday.  I was chatting to my sister at the weekend as she is looking for something to display the postcards I sent her while I was on Trek America's Southern Sun tour.  I came across this lovely memo board and thought I quite fancy it myself.


Atlas Memo Board and Pin Board by Pins and Ribbons
This item can be found on a website called Not on the High Street.com and is priced at £34.99.  The site has a whole host of atlas decorated items, including a makeup bag.

Happy Shopping!

Wednesday Wishlist

Recently starting a new job and the change of season has really fired up my desire to shop.  While many people are starting to organise their Christmas shopping and most of the shops are starting to display the same Christmas gift sets that they sell every year. I, on the other hand am browsing to buy things for me!

I thought I would pull together a few things that I have been coveting so that everyone else can drool over them like me.  Hopefully a few of these items will make it in to my autumn wardrobe.


I have to mention the black chunky cut out boots.  A few months back I fell in love with the Jeffrey Campbell Roscoe Cut-out boots and I have been looking for a high street alternative since.  The other day browsing on River Island's website I came across the Black chunky buckle cut out boots priced at £45.00.

I have a serious obsession with footwear at the moment and I am also obsessed with dark red, burgundy and wine colours so River Island's Dark red cut out buckle side Chelsea boots priced at £35.00 are right up my street.

Moving away from footwear and onto accessories I spotted a lovely tartan scarf and this one can be found in River Island for £25, the Black dog bite print t-shirt dress is also from River Island and is priced at £20.  Unfortunately the dress is currently sold out in my size.

Moving away from River Island and onto another website I keep finding myself browsing on, ASOS.  I could just be showing my age but I remember when ASOS first launched as 'As Seen On Screen'!

While browsing on ASOS I came across OWL Chelsea Tortoiseshell Strap Watch, at the moment this is  exclusive to ASOS priced at £84.95.  This watch comes in different colour ways but I think I love the tortoiseshell the most.

As it is October and it will be my favourite time of the year, Halloween! I came across this cracker of a Pumpkin Beanie (£12) also from ASOS.

No doubt I will come across more things that I want so keep your eyes peeled.
