weekend wishlist: wildpair

all from wildpair

I love most of the things in Wildpair, especially the shoes, but I don't love the prices of most of the items. It is seriously overpriced for the quality of most of the clothes, and I could find something similar and cheaper at Glassons or Cotton On. That said...they have some of the cutest dresses and shoes ever.

I've had my eye on that galaxy print dress for ages, but even on sale it was around $80. The price has dropped a little, but not enough for me to buy it...yet. I need that black and white graphic dress in my life, and the white dotted dress. I need it all.

Currently addicted to blue satchels at the moment, but I did like the burgundy version of the one on the right. And the necklaces!!! That rabbit one is adorable, must have it! I'm loving turbans right now as well, not sure if they would look good on me as I can't seem to pull off head wear of any sort, but I would like to try it out.

Might have to pop in this weekend and get the cross ring. Right now I only have the double finger cross ring that everyone and their sister owns. I love crosses, only in fashion as I'm in no way religious, but I'm always looking to add to my collection.

THE SHOES!!!! Marked down to $49.90 from $100+...they will be mine. I own a pair of wedges I bought from the Wildpair clearance store at Dress Smart and they are some of the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever worn in my life. I love them and will continue to suffer, and that will not put me off buying these beauties!

wishlist: glassons 50's riviera collection

GLASSONS 50's Riviera collection

After a couple of mediocre collections for winter, Glassons is stepping up their game for spring. The newest collection is not usually my norm, but it is gorgeous. I'm in love with just about every item.

The dress and hat I saw on the rack as well as on one of the sales associates at the Riccarton store. She was absolutely adorable in it, and dressed it down nicely with a pair of worn brown boots. Great for winter, but I think the wedges would look amazing with it. They are absolutely fab in person. Navy suede and raffia covered wedges, yum! They also come in tan, but I prefer the blue. The shoe collection is fantastic, but unfortunately they don't have all of them on the site, which is a shame.

The blouse isn't from the 50's riviera collection but the relaxed luxe collection. Another one where I am coveting almost every item. I'm really into flowy sheer blouses at the minute, something my wardrobe is seriously lacking, but I'm probably going to have to get this one.

The bag and sweater are so cute. I want the sweater in all four colours, and a pair of those navy shorts wouldn't go amiss. The bag isn't really my style, but I love the vintage look of it. I could easily spend my whole paycheck plus some on getting all the items I want. Better lock my eftpos card away for safe keeping.

weekend wishlist: dotti

all from dotti

dotti is probably my favourite clothing store in new zealand. it's a little too pricey for me so i always hit up the sale racks. it's a little hit and miss, sometimes they have tonnes of things i want, other times they have nothing. this is one of the times where i want pretty much everything.

i could have made this a two part post with all the things I wanted, but whittled it down to my favourites. the leopard print blazer being at the top of my list with a star by it! A, my sister, and I are proper obsessed with leopard, so when we popped into the westfield dotti we were drooling over this jacket. it is so much better in person. neither of us could justify the $80 price tag, so i'll just wait until it goes on sale or ends up on trademe.

i need those shorts in my life! i have a similar pair i bought from cotton on, but they are a bit shorter and the colour is a toffee brown. i love them to bits. i'm not much of a shorts person, but i'm trying to expand my horizons. probably won't be in shorts until spring time though.

i'm quite shocked at my love for pussy bow tops. i swear i could have looked through my mamaw's (grandmother in southern speak!) closet and found 50 of the same type of shirts. i have seen quite a few that are too grandmotherly, but this one is simple and the colour is lush!

the rest are pretty basic, but i've been leaning towards basic/comfy clothes this winter. last winter you wouldn't see me out of a dress even when it was freezing, but as i mentioned in previous posts this winter is brutal. -4C at 8am this morning and we've yet to get past -1C. looking like another day of jeans, long sleeves, and a big coat.

weekend wishlist: glassons

all from glassons

i have a love/hate relationship with glassons. usually i can go in the stores and find a million and one things i want to buy, but this past selection has been tragic. they've finally started getting some cute things in for winter, which happens to be my favourite season for dressing purposes (only! absolutely detest the cold).

completely gutted that the selection of shoes on the site is seriously limited. popped in today on a shopping excursion with the family and instantly fell in love with about 4 different pairs. they have some of the best high heeled clogs in a pale grey that are to die for!

that bird print jacket and the cigarette leg trousers will more than likely make their way into my wardrobe in the near future. i have a hard time resisting bird prints, and i need pants for winter that aren't skinny jeans. in fact, i need a lot of winter clothes as this years seems to be turning into a particularly brutal one.
