Lust or Must?

I love the Mulberry Alexa bag but I also know that it's not inexpensive.  Doesn't this Talbots version give it a good run for its money?

I die for these Valentino lace booties but they are over $1000 which is steep. But this Ann Taylor version is just under $200.

Every girl needs a good pair of flats especially the Chanel ballet variety but with a $500+ price tag, they're certainly not affordable. Instead give these rose gold Ann Taylor flats a try.

I can totally picture myself prancing around town in this Miu Miu printed fur collar coat but at over $1700 I don't think I can swing it. This Top Shop coat would do the trick and for a sliver of the price!

Wishlist: Black Friday

Instead of fighting the shopping crowds today, I'm nestled in doing stuff at home that's been on my list of to do's for awhile.  So far, I've finally organized all the nail polish, lipsticks and makeup that clutter up my bathroom.  While the bathroom is still cluttered, it's a much more neat and organized clutter.  I've also printed out new photos to update all my framed pictures plus have started the process of cleaning out the disorganized mess in my kitchen cabinets.  But despite my not taking part in the black Friday madness, I'm still doing some mental shopping and adding things to my wishlist.  Today's list encompasses the handbags I'm pondering for myself.  I do have a birthday coming up in January and think I might buy myself one of these as a birthday treat.

Givenchy Nightingale
You've seen this one before but I'm still obsessing over the Givenchy Nightingale and I really think I want it in red.
Stella McCartney Falabella

I love the chain straps on the Stella McCartney Falabella and I've been admiring this bag for awhile.  I think it's great how she let's her dedication to the environment guide her designs though admittedly, I do question spending $1000+ for a faux leather bag.
   
Miu Miu Matelasse
 Miu Miu has done several versions of this bag over the last few years and I really never tire of it.  I am especially drawn to the braided handle, buckled flap and puckered leather.
Alexander Wang Rocco
My passion for all things bestudded is clear and I've been eyeing Alexander Wang's studded bags since a trip to Opening Ceremony.  I was at that time thinking about the Diego bucket bag but now the Rocco bag is in the running.

Mulberry Bayswater
Finally, last but not least, is the Mulberry Bayswater bag.  I also really like Mulberry's Alexa bag but I think this one is a bit more my style.

I've got a couple months to ponder which one I like the best.  Which do YOU like best??

Weekend Wishlist

I feel like it's been ages since I've had a day off of work.  Since I've been so overworked and exhausted lately, I decided to take Friday off and treat myself to a long weekend.  What long weekend would be complete without at least a little bit of shopping?  Here's what's on my wishlist.

Riding Boots






I really want a pair of black riding boots.  Preferably with a cool detail like the ones above.  I especially love the studded Louboutins but I'm definitely not in the market to spend that much.



Camel Coats and Capes






I've also been eying a few camel coats but the more I think about it, perhaps I might like a fun cape instead.


And on a different note, I saw these fantastic Ann Taylor tweed pumps in November's InStyle mag and thought I could really make use of these.  It looks like I might have my work cut out for me this weekend but shopping is the good, relaxing kind of work.

More fall wish lists

My wish list is always growing.  Here's what's on it at the moment.

Kate Spade leopard chubbie



As for fall accessories, I would love a rose gold Rolex a la Victoria Beckham but the Michael Kors one below is much more in the realm of what I can afford.  Also I saw the Mulberry studded boots in the store in NYC and they were to die for!!
Accessories


I'm still in search of the perfect camel boots.  Stay tuned.

Vixen in Venom!

J Brand pencil wax coated jeans in venom wash

OK so I may be the furthest thing from a vixen but boy, these J brand wax denim jeans in venom are hot, hot, hot.  I'm looking forward to donning these hot little numbers with my new bright, bright blue Mulberry booties that I posted about here.


Pair hot waxed jeans with bright blue booties.  Give the look a classic twist with a trusty Chanel bag.  Top with a fun T and tweed blazer like the Red Valentino bow t shirt and the Smythe one above and you're ready for fall.  Now add that Smythe blazer to my wish list!
