WEDNESDAY WISHLIST #5 (PRIMARK A/W EDITION)

So Primark have really stepped up their game lately to really contend with the likes of Topshop, Zara and River Island and I am oh so excited for their A/W pieces, so I thought I'd compile a wishlist of my favourite A/W Primark picks.  I have included the prices when possible as the site where I clipped the pictures from here didn't include every price! I'm heading into Primark this Friday (payday haul oh yes!) and I have every finger and toe crossed that most of these items will be available in store! 

COATS

I am in love with the dusty pastel pink Carven / Celine inspired coat (2nd on right), it is such a classic design. I really like how the oversized cut is slightly masculine contrasts with the pretty feminine pink shade!

JACKETS

I'll certainly be on the lookout for that floral bomber jacket, it would look so stunning paired with a simple black jersey dress and chunky boots.

SKIRTS

Um can I have all of them please? I can't get over the pricing, these skirts look like they should be way more pricey than they are!

TOPS

That PU bralet looks very Missguided / Asos like, I think I will be on the search for it in my local Primark! The jumpers look so cosy and cool.

JEWELLERY

Hello opulence on a budget. If I see any of these pieces in my Primark I will most certainly be placing them into my basket!

FOOTWEAR

Ahh shoes. The patent brogues look like Doc Marten shoes...er yes please Primark!

TROUSERS

I'll take all of them! The patterned trousers look like Zara designs and I love a nice trouser.

ACCESSORIES

I always love a good Primark accessory and at these prices I love them a whole lot more.

IS ANYONE ELSE EXCITED FOR A/W PRIMARK?

As always I hope you are all very well and please don't remember to stay up to date with all my posts my following me on bloglovin here!

WEDNESDAY WISHLIST #4

So I've bought quite a few bits and pieces this past week (I'll do a haul post when they all arrive!) which means that I'm going to have to stall the spending for a while (or at least until I get paid next week) so I went and done another one of those wishlist things. 'Ere we go then...

RI SCRUNCHIE / HONEY / NOTION SANDALS / JUMPSUIT / MAP DRESS / BAG

So tartan's gonna be huge this A/W so I am stocking up now and I think this scrunchie is a great accessory for this coming season as it will just update simple outfits with just that tiny detail of trendy tartan. Now I love Marc Jacobs' fragrances and I really want to give this new one a go plus how cute is the packaging!? I want those Topshop sandals...nuff said. Ditto the jumpsuit. Oh my lord I need that map print dress in my life! Now how sweet is the ASOS bag with rabbit ears? I love the quilted design and it's perfect for times when you don't need to carry so much stuff.

SO WHAT'S ON YOUR WISHLIST THIS WEEK?

As always I hope you are all well!

WEDNESDAY WISHLIST #3

So it's Wednesday and to banish any midweek blues of mine I thought I'd do a wishlist; y'know because it's been almost a week since I did one.  It's pretty TOPSHOP heavy (once again) but then I am loyal to the things I love. I've also been wishing for a couple of items from Monki, I've never bought anything from Monki before so do any of you recommend it?

MONKI TOP / TOPSHOP DRESS / ASOS RINGS / TOPSHOP BOOTS / REVLON LIP BUTTER /  TOPSHOP SATCHEL / MONKI SHORTS

SO WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN WISHING FOR?

'IT'S ALMOST PAYDAY' WISHLIST.

C'est wishlist time! So I am broke until next week (payday!) therefore till then I am only allowed to window shop and look at pretty pictures of the things I want in my life.

Another overly monochrome inspired wishlist but monochrome pieces are interchangeable and so easy to style. I think my favourites are the RI playsuit and the Rihanna for RI heels (but I think I might have to settle for the Primark dupes!)

RIVER ISLAND PLAYSUIT

TOPSHOP DRESS

ASOS LOAFERS

TOPSHOP BRALET

RIHANNA STILETTO'S

H&M SHORTS

SO WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN WISHING FOR THIS PAST WEEK?

WEDNESDAY WISHLIST #2

 

Well it's been very warm today so I thought I'd do a quick summer wishlist, to banish those midweek blues I've been having over having to work when it's oh so lovely outside.

 

 

 

I'm really into monochrome patterns lately and I think that might show with this wishlist. You may also be able to tell that I'm liking H&M lately but I'm gutted the Aztec playsuit is sold out in my size online - damn. I am seriously considering splurging on my first ever Mac product because Candy Yum Yum is probably the brightest hue of pink I have ever seen; so it's the perfect colour to brighten up all my monochrome! I really like the Topshop tassle bikini but I can't justify buying it because my holiday destination this year is the Lake District and I don't imagine that a teeny tiny bikini would be too appropriate. The Miss Selfridge dotty monochrome maxi skirt is just too pretty but unfortunately it's sold out; still I'm hoping I will find an alternative to it online. I've never bought anything from Rock'n'Rose but after seeing both the ring and chain on Polyvore I am seriously tempted! I have been eying up the River Island faded skater skirt, it's just so pretty for the summer - in fact I reckon that it would look pretty cool paired with the H&M bralet and kimono.

 

WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN WISHING FOR THIS WEEK?

WEDNESDAY WISHLIST

 

So I've had a couple of days off work, which is great for my feet but not so much for my bank balance (I should really stop pressing 'click to buy'!)  I am going to try and lay off using my credit card for a few days (well at least till I get paid on Friday) so instead I've been window shopping and thought I'd do a quick wishlist.

Yup it's mainly Topshop related but I just can't resist. I think the harness bralet would look so cool with the mom jeans - ooh that with the boots, sunglasses and satchel would be an amazing outfit! I  really want a jumpsuit for summer and I am liking this Miss Selfridge one a lot. I love Topshop make-up, especially their cream blushes and I will definitely be picking another one up in the near future!

WHAT ARE YOU WISHING FOR THIS WEEK? / ARE YOU A FAN OF MOM JEANS? / WOULD YOU SPLURGE ON A CAMBRIGE SATCHEL?

MAY WISHLIST

Oh my is it already May? Time seems to be ticking oh so fast for me! Still with another month brings another wishlist...

Yeah as you can see this wishlist is pretty nail paint heavy but I love experimenting with nail colours in the summer because they instantly update my winter wardrobe. I am definitely going to be picking up a Model's Own Fruit Pastel shade because I love pastel shades and also they are scented polishes so you can sniff the scents (fruit scented) before you buy. I would like Essie 'Fiji' but I will be saving up my tips to buy this one because £8 of my own money just feels to extravagant.  I really, really want to give the Ciate chalkboard nails a go! You get a base of either white or black which provides a chalkboard effect and then you get four little chalk pens to draw on your nails with which you could either wipe away and start again or seal with a clear topcoat. I really like the idea of drawing chalk on your nails because it reminds me of being a little girl and drawing spirals and flowers on the path outside my house (semi permanent vandalism as I like to call it). As much as I like the idea of this polish, I think it could be a bit of a novelty product plus it's kind of on the pricey side. The set retails at £18 and I think it's exclusive to Selfridges.

 

I have wanted some Leigh jeans for ages because I have only ever heard good things about them but I am very picky about jeans as I struggle to find ones that fit me perfectly but I know the Leigh jeans are super soft and tight fitting; can anyone recommend them? I have fallen in love with the contrasting monochrome spotty Topshop t-shirt. I am really into monochrome clothes at the moment because they are so timeless and are just so easy to accessorise. I am liking Topshop a lot as of late and I could very easily purchase everything they sell. I am also really liking H&M (as you may be able to tell from most of my recent OOTD's) they have got a great summer range and the prices are so reasonable; I will definitely be grabbing the chain above if I see it instore because I love really clunky necklaces and the silver colour is just so classic.

 

Do those ASOS FRANCESCA sandals remind anyone else of being little? I had a similar pair in lemon when I was about five paired with a some frilly ankle socks; I think I would still rock that look today! Wow, with these sandals and the chalkboard nails I think I would be recreating my childhood in one look. Also from asos I would like the set of rings please! I love the look of fingers being adorned in gold hardware!

 

I need to eBay myself an Arctic Monkeys t-shirt because they are my favourite band and have been since I was eleven but I have always neglected to purchase myself one; oops!  

 

Okay so I need that RIVER ISLAND floral suitcase in my life because come September I will be living away from home and I am going to be needing some stylish luggage material to cart all my things back and forth but I will inevitably end up with just your average black suitcase; a girl can only wish.

 

Mmmm the LUSH buublegum lip scrub just makes me want to lick my lips even thinking about it. I have never used a lip scrub before but I probably should. Are the Lush ones the best or can any of you suggest anything better?

So what are you all wishing for this month?

So I got paid today and I cannot wait to have a bit of a shopping haul next week during my day off, but until then I shall have to make do with some pretty pictures of some pretty items;

Since I don't think I will ever be able to afford the Céline tote bag I had to eBay it and did a little victory dance in my mind when I found a perfect imitation of it for a fragment of the price. Here's the link to the bag if you're interested; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150923031803?var=450129138902&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 I think I will be doing a review on the bag when it arrives at my door, so stay tuned!
