The Wishlist

I think everyone has a wishlist of all the things they would buy if they could. I have two types of wishlist; one is pointless things that i do just want and would buy if i was super-duper rich and the other one is of items i class as 'iconic' and would actually take time to save up my money for. My first type of wishlist changes regularly, whereas the other one, well i think about it 24/7!

So the things i'm currently after on the 'iconic' wishlist:

- YSL arty ring

- Burberry trench coat

- Alexander McQueen skull scarf

- Marc Jacobs mouse shoes

I feel rather proud that i've already ticked off a few items that were on here over the past year or so. These items were:

- Vivienne Westwood Pirate boots

- Christian Louboutin shoes

- Chloe handbag

- Moschino belt
i think that was it actually, there may be something else i'm forgetting however, i'm pretty sure i would remember it!

So i was just browsing on my all time three favourite websites the other day (net-a-porter, matches fashion and my-wardrobe!) and anyway, the 'if i were a lottery winner and had money to burn' wishlist is as follows ..



Dress: Beyond Vintage @ Matchesfashion




Boots: Chloe @ Net-a-Porter




Skirt: Chloe @ Net-a-Porter




Dress: J Crew @ Net-a-Porter




Necklace: Kenneth Jay Lane @ Net-a-Porter (only £30!)




Blouse: Marc Jacobs @ Net-a-Porter




Boots: See by Chloe @ Net-a-Porter




Blouse: Temperley @ Net-a-Porter




Shoes: YSL tribute sandals @ Net-a-Porter




Coat: Moschino @ My-Wardrobe

mhmm, i can dream ...

These boots are made for walking




I love boots. Any kind of boots, they are all gorgeous! I became obsessed with boots around 3 years ago now, and i wear them pretty much everyday!
They just go with everything; skirts, jeans, dresses, shorts, you name it-boots work with it.
Obviously i have pairs which i wear more so than others, but that's not because i like them less, it's just what's comfiest or if they look better with what i'm wearing.
So anyway, here are (most of) my boots, and i'm still adding to the collection!
I cannot wait to get my hands on the 'Manic' pair from Office, an amazing replica to the Chloe 'Susan' boot, yummy :)!

I guess if i had to pick, these are my four most favourite pairs ..
The Vivienne Westwood 'Pirate Boots' were purchased last Christmas, 'To me-from me,x'. I had been after them for quite some time, so decided to treat myself to such an iconic pair of boots, they look wicked worn slouchy or done right up.
The black patent booties are again another Westwood creation, part of the Vivienne Westwood for Melissa collaboration. They are so useful with our typical English weather, just like mini wellingtons!
And the bronzed well worn pair were my first pair that got me into this entire craze!
They were from River Island 3 years ago now in the sale, reduced from £55 to just £25! I really do need to get them re-heeled though, as they are on their last legs.
And then there's the tan pair from ZARA, yet another bargain. I'd spotted them last spring but i just couldn't seem to part with £90 at them time, even though i was so close to doing it (however i am glad i restrained myself!) i spotted them in the sale in the summer for just £30, they last pair remaining in my size- it was meant to be.
Anyway, i have rambled enough now, i just wanted to get my love for boots out there aha!
