Wish List (Tuesday)

It's not Wednesday, but I am certainly wishing! First things first, Kate Spade is having a surprise sale. Not a HUGE selection, but lots of cute options! Mommas, check out the baby bags! I really liked this bag for my laptop, but my work laptop is ginormous and wouldn't even fit!! Here are my favorites:

 

Hurry, because the sale only lasts 2 days.

 

 

Other than Kate Spade bags, I have been eyeing some fun spring(ish) items too.  I need to go shopping! Good thing I have a birthday coming up, because I want SO many things. My birthday list is growing every day. That's what happens this time of year when the season changes, I always want all new things! I flat out told Dan (multiple times) I need new sunglasses, but I also want makeup, workout gear, sneakers, and everything else below. I still have a month to culminate a list, drop hints and purchase gifts for myself. I know I'm not the only one that does that. 

 

Snakeskin Maxi // Juicy Couture Leopard Sports Bra // Zella Capri Leggings // Tophop Emerald Wrap Dress // ASOS striped dress // Yes to Love tee // Sephora Lipstick // Kate Spade Live Colorfully perfume // Piko tunic // Topshop Perforated backpack // Ray Ban Silver Clubmaster // Ray Ban tortoise Wayfarer  // NARS Kalahari duo eyeshadow // ASOS mini // Steve Madden Eros Black Snake shoes 

Edgy

Nordstrom Dress // ASOS Mirrored Pants // A Wear Leopard Coat // ASOS Dress
Forever 21 Gloves // Nasty Gal Heels // J.Crew Bag // Forever 21 Hat

I love all of these pieces, not together of course. Each is a little "edgy" in their own way, something not everyone (especially not in Indiana) would be comfortable wearing.

Notice I am still pining after the leopard coat.

Happy Thursday!

Also-
There are 15 days left until Thanksgiving 2013
There are 16 days left until Black Friday 2013
There are 42 days left until Christmas 2013
There are 48 days left until New Year's Eve 2013 

WOOHOO!

Wednesday Wish List

 

I'm sorta obsessed with all 4 items on this page. I REALLY want the leather skirt, but what color?? I need a new fur vest too. I've been wearing the one I have for 4 years now and I think this Madewell one looks so plush and full!  I love my leopard smoking flats so much, I want another pair and these orange J.Crew ones seem perfect. And finally, I am IN LOVE with this blue skirt. Sadly, it is out of stock at ASOS. I could definitely make something very similar and just love the style!!
 

Leather Skirts

Brooklyn Blonde

 

Atlantic Pacific

I love leather skirts!! I have one that I don't wear nearly enough. Mine is just the standard black mini, but there are SO many great colors and styles out this fall. I can't get enough of Helena's wine colored full skirt  and all American look.  And it's from TJ Maxx too! I'm going to be scoping out my nearest TJ for that one! And as always Blair is just a badass in leopard and leather.

Here are some other skirts I really like!

 

Blue Skater from Nordstrom // Turquoise Pencil from Topshop// Burgundy Skater from ASOS // Black Zipper from H&M // Red Mini from ASOS // Pink Mini from American Apparel (several colors) // Black and White Stripe from Piperlime //Gold Pencil from Zara // Peplum from Forever 21 // Light Blue Skater from ASOS

Whew! It's been a busy week. Busy at work, meeting up with friends, and a sick doggie haven't left me much time to sew or cook, much less to blog about it. No worries though, there's always time to online shop (or browse)! I suppose I am getting into the fall fashion. How can you not? It's everywhere!

Last week

What I Wore. 

These are not in day order, so don't be confused if you saw me last week. I didn't actually wear #5 out of the house, but just tried it on because it's new! I'm always hesitant to post outfit pictures especially since I don't have the time to do real photo shoots. Every time I post outfits I have positive feedback.  I'm not a huge fan of the "selfie" but I feel like everyone else is doing it, so why not jump on board!
