What’s on my February shopping wish list

2nd February, 2018

Now that it’s the last month of summer I’m in the mood to embrace resort wear looks that I’m hoping will prolong this holiday feeling just that little bit longer. Punchy prints and colours,  ultra feminine pieces with a relaxed vibe and just a few understated hints of glamour here and there is what’s currently playing on my mind, and naturally, is what has made it onto my wish list this month. Whilst I cling to the last few weeks of warm weather, I think it’s time my wardrobe has a last hit of this season’s vibrant, statement-making pieces…

Weekend Max Mara Olivi skirt

Rust coloured stripes and a paper bag waist has this maxi skirt perfectly placed to become a fave when it comes to nailing a casual off duty look that’s still got a little bit of flair.

Miu Miu embroidered straw tote

I am loving all the natural accessories around right now and this Miu Miu bag really nails the look, managing to combine a laidback beachy feel but livened up with just a few hits of bold colour.

Prada Logo Liberty leather shoulder bag

The logo plate on this pastel pink bag gives it a bit of edge without completely overpowering the feminine effect of such a shade. It’s the ideal size to take to an event or long lunch with the girls.

Melissa Joy Manning Herkimer diamond earrings

These drop earrings have managed to turn diamonds into something modern and edgy without compromising on its classic appeal.

Rag & Bone leather slip on shoes

Comfy sneakers are my go-to but the slip on style steers it away from the usual silhouette to give it a point of difference.

Aquazzurra Harlow Pearls Plateau 140

The pearls! The colour! The texture! These platform heels are all kinds of adorable and is made for a glamorous night out.

Mink Pink Eclipse sunglasses

Round frame glasses have that retro vibe but still manage to look fashion forward due to the fact they’re rimless.

Aje Amatae dress 

I’m always drawn to one shoulder dresses because they show off one of the most flattering parts of a woman’s body. Add to the mix the button up side, the asymmetric hem and ruffles and I’m sold.

Jo Malone London lime basil mandarin candle

I love a luxury candle, especially when Jo Malone is involved. I wish you could smell this because it’s heavenly!

Lisa Marie Fernandez Imaan ruffle bikini

The powder blue colour of this bikini is the ideal shade for this time of year, whilst the ruffles and tie details on the top and bottom are an adorable touch.

What’s on my shopping wish list this month 

12th January, 2018

At the start of a new year I like to take stock of my closet and strategise what new additions I might make. Usually I’ll look at what’s currently on trend along with any gaps I have in my wardrobe and pinpoint a few things to purchase from there. Shopping for summer is always fun as the relaxed vibe of the season means it’s a good opportunity to invest in some bold and playful pieces along with standout accessories. Here’s what I have my eye on this month…

Valentino Free Rockstud Leather slides

Valentino’s Rockstud heels and flats are a signature style of the brand and now they’re taking it into summer footwear territory with these slides. The navy and white colour combination feels perfect for this time of year and the studs are an edgy touch.

Cult Gaia Luna acrylic shoulder bag

Circular bags are a huge trend and this one looks like a work of art that you can carry on your shoulder. The beaded strap is able to be detached allowing for plenty of versatility.

Jerome Dreyfus Hector leather tote

This one stood out to me because of its departure from the shape of a traditional tote. The round style looks modern whilst its beautiful tan colour makes it a versatile classic.

Zimmermann Lumino asymmetric linen midi dress

Linen dresses are a welcome trend this season due to their relaxed vibe and the added bonus that they require minimal effort on the ironing front. The sunny yellow of this Zimmermann frock caught my eye as it’s so perfect right now. Bold stripes and sweet ruffled details meet to great effect, making for a great go-to dress.

MDS striped cotton jersey top

This top is quite high on the adorable scale with its tie straps and gathered finish. Perfect with everything from a denim skirt to tailored shorts, it’s made for enjoying sunny days.

MDS striped cotton jersey wide leg pants 

I couldn’t resist the matching pants to the above top! How cute do they look as a set?

Sam Edelman Rumi Dupion slippers 

Simple pointed flats at a reasonable price—what’s not to love? They’re also a great colour that will really work back with a huge chunk of my wardrobe.

Freda Banana Tara faux-pearl embellished glasses

Statement sunglasses are the ideal accessory to lift an outfit and this pair, with its faux-pearl embellishment really makes for a fun addition to any look.

Milana twisted paper medium brim

I’m a firm believer in staying safe in the sun and this hat fits the bill. As a bonus they’re also on sale.

Annie Costello Brown gold halle earrings

I can envisage these architectural earrings making a stylish addition to myriad outfits and they’ll definitely be able to transition into next season, allowing me to get maximum cost per wear.

C&M Camilla and Marc Montaine dress

Breezy dresses are one of my favourite things during the warmer months and this mini dress with its tie detail will most certainly get more than a few outings for the remainder of the season.
