In These Heels

Archive for the ‘Wishlist’ Category

The crazier the better is a mantra I generally go by when it comes to accessories. So its no surprise that Irregular Choice is one of my favourite brands. Here are my picks from the current stock on site.

See below the jump for links to product pages, and if you would like to contribute towards me buying any of these, check out my Blog Sale!!

After an entire day of searching, trawling internet shops, and fighting through the masses of tacky prom dresses, I finally found her. My ideal dress. Shes just a little bit fabulous. Everyone, I would like you to meet Audrey.

Watch the catwalk video for more loveliness. Forever Unique Audrey Hepburn print dress, from ASOS. £65. AND NOT IN MY SIZE!!!!!

*thud*

Oh if only I wasnt completely skint! I dont know if I can hold off for birthday money to buy these shoes, I will be in the Kurt Geiger shop on 13th August, a whole 2 WEEKS before my birthday! Not fair.

Buy Miss KG Minnie heels here. Also in purple and black.

Isn’t it great when you can actually tick things off your wishlists? I have not blogged in TOO long, for a million reasons, none of which involving shoes, so I won’t go into them here. But I have been getting things from my previous posts, the most exciting one being the feather cape!

ASOS feather cape link

The amazing people at ASOS have restocked the feather cape in 4 new colours; navy, nude, aqua, and grey.  I got the navy, as although the others are fab, the aqua isn’t really ‘Me’, the nude a tad wedding-y, and the grey looks like a dead pigeon. In a good way.

I have only had one wear out of it so far, let me know what you think!

I have also bought the leather moustache necklace, which my sister affectionately calls my ‘circus ringmaster necklace’, and also the Well Hello Wedges from Office!!  So all in all I didn’t do too badly for Christmas.

I hadn’t actually planned for all my posts today to be about Christmas, but I guess that its hard to escape from at this time of year, and for the next 43 days too(OMG!!). So here are the things I would love to get from Santa

From Accessorize firstly, these super cute warm earmuffs £16

And again from Accessorize a fabulous necklace £14

The final item from Accessorize is this amazing hairband £14

Moving websites to ASOS now, this dress I already have in black, but its simply divine, so the purple version would be a perfect addition to my wardrobe! Dress £38

Now sold out from ASOS is this, I’m honestly gutted, as I wanted to make it a statement piece I wore regularly.  Devastated.

I will have to make do with this feather hairband from Oasis @ASOS £16

For those days when I am in a silly mood (which some weeks out number the normal days…) I would need this Moustache Necklace, from Etsy $9.  I’d have to think of a name for my tash’ed alter ego too!

This Tatty Devine Dinosaur necklace is simply too amazing for words.  Raaaarrrrrrrr.From www.accessoriesonline.co.uk £96

And last but by no means least these heels that Ive loved for a few months now, finally down in the sale from Office £30

Well, what do you think of them? Link in the comments to your own Christmas Wishlist and I’ll put them up here in a few days!

Flicking through a random newspaper the other day, I noticed this feathered clutch bag, from ASOS.com.  Only £25, and bigger than other clutches available, I think it could actually work for me, a woman who normally carries a bag the size of a suitcase for everyday use!

You can buy it here, but make sure you leave me one for after I get paid!

I do a lot of shopping on the internet, mainly because I don’t drive, and I have to coax my long suffering husband to take me places, and then listen to Jack begging for more computer games, and incessantly asking ‘Are we going home yet?!?!’. So I don’t really mind paying a pound or two for postage, as it means peace and quiet in the long run!

One of my favourite websites at the moment is Love Hearts and Crosses, a kitsch jewellery store from the adorable Connie! I ordered one of the £10 lucky dips for a birthday treat to myself at the end of August, and I love it so much!! I received a Love Is…. necklace, a fab little trinket box necklace, 2 pair of retro earrings, and Teddy Bear earrings! So cute! I also purchased the fabulous branch necklace featured yesterday on my blog. And previously I ordered the amazing ‘I love tea and cake‘ earrings, which can come as both the same, or one of each! Brilliant! Never have I had so many compliments on a pair of earrings before. Get them while you still can.

The items on my wish list now are:

Geek Glasses.

How cool are these? Cool enough to go on Connie’s outfit for her first trip to London Fashion Week! I bet they went down a treat.

Oscar The Owl

I love owl jewellery, and already have 2 different necklaces! But Oscar looks so cute and cuddly, and for only £2? Definitely going on my next order!

Steven Sheen Lightning Bolt Earrings

Vikki from Makeup, my Secret Obsession! bought these, and they look great on her! You dont have to have fluro legwarmers on to unleash a little ’80s ness*, because they are mirrored, they go with absolutely everything!

And the good news is, you can win a £10 voucher for the website!! Just check the blog for details on the Polyvore competition. Good luck!!

*Disclaimer: neither I nor Love hearts and Crosses can be held responsible for any spontaneous Nik Kershaw songs that you may find yourself singing as a result of wearing these earrings.

I’m feeling like its about time to bankrupt myself, so what better way to do that than spend all the money I have at www.My-Wardrobe.com! I have previously purchased a Vivienne Westwood top from them, and Tweeted the opening of the box. With pictures. Riveting stuff, I tell ya. I had the whole world glued to their seats, months before Derren Brown. I think he stole my idea but, you know, me and D are like THAT close, so I’ll let him off with it this time. But if he starts a blog sale, I’ll have to kick his ass.

I’m trying not to spend more than £150, so I’ve set my eye on the following:

Black Rats £93
Yes, I know, I’m a bit slow on the uptake, but its taken me this long to grow to love them. Constantly seeing them on Polyvore, and Kingdom of Style and the like, I’ve decided that I do in fact love them too.

Ash Red Secret Shoes £37
I don’t actually own red shoes, I know, shocking! But I think these could fill the void, the angular heel makes them that little bit more special, and the peep toe is perfect for all year round wear. Bargain.

D&G butterfly brooch £20
Dolce & Gabbana for £20. And its cute as a button. Need I say more?

Those 3 do make a nice round £150, but I also love these:

By Malene Birger Necklace £130
I adore how this looks! I would wear it with everything, would love to make this my signature piece.

Melissa 3 strap heels £110
Again, self explanatory. These red heels would make my life complete. I might never need to buy shoes again. OK, so we all know that’s not going to happen, but its the reason I would give Mr J for spending all our money.
