On My Radar

Image
It's been a little while since I wrote a wishlist post (other than my Irregular Choice one ), but a few things have been catching my eye recently.  First up are these really cool Halloween themed bags from ASOS.  You can pick up a 'Treat' slogan clutch £28 to keep your sweeties in when guising!  I'm really loving this quilted  bat clutch £18 complete with wings, despite the fact bats freak me out (two incidents with bats flying IN your house will do that to you).  It's kooky, but not too Halloween-ish that you couldn't use it all year round.   Or if you really want to get thematic, how about this cute l'il  pumpkin bag £18.  Beats that hard work of carving one yourself in my opinion!    It's difficult to segue from a funky pumpkin bag to these shoes, so I'm not even going to try!  I'm really, really loving RED Valentino, the line is so playful and pretty and girly, everything I love.  I've owned a couple of pairs of RV...

Spring Wishlist

It feels like this 'no money' situation has lasted for months already and yet it's ' only ' been 6 weeks. It's no fun. Anyway I've been through the depression and gone cold-turkey, now I just want to compile wishlists of pretty things I can't afford! This little lot should get you in full-on Spring mode (although it's very chilly here today) and I would happily spend my pretend money on them all. First up are these adorable Classic Hardware deer, bunny and kitty rings £24.99 each and  matching pendants £35 each from Dollydagger. I absolutely love the vintage inspired imagery and my animal jewellery collection has remained pretty stagnant lately, so would love a boost. Next, I first wrote about these shoes back in... January , so I've been long time lusting after them! Now that the weather is maybe hopefully moving into Spring, these would make a nice addition to my wardrobe. I'm still pretty torn between the unusual green shade or ...

Yes Philease

A 5 1/2" metal block heel, platform, peep toe and metal ring bow feature? Yes please! The Outnet are spoiling us with these Phi shoes. I love the unusual mix of materials; soft cream leather against hard metal rivets, fabulous! Snap them up for £237 (was £790), if you are a size 36 or 41. Go, go, go!

Secret/Private Sales Info

Image
I'm all over secret sales right now. I don't know if it's a mixture of the credit crunch (although I can't say it's personally/directly affecting me) and the fact that I'm trying to be slightly more sensible with my purchases and save for more expensive items rather than big blow-outs on cheaper throw-away fashions. Obviously I'm not alone though, as they seem to be really popular. Most sites require you to register (it's free to join), some have a waiting list-others you are registered as a member straight away. Over the past few weeks there have been sales from the likes of House of Holland, Georgina Goodman, Karl Lagerfeld, DvB, Liberty of London and Calvin Klein, to name just a few. Most sales last a couple of days and you can sign up to receive updates of when a sale is about to go live. Here's a rundown of the best around. http://www.cocosa.com/ This sites is invitation only, although you can join without a referall, but there is a waiting li...
