My Winter Wishlist

I seem to have winter clothing on the brain, maybe its because I need to move back to school in 2 weeks so Ive been packing my clothes or maybe its because Ive been mending various garments... I realized this morning it was the perfect time to make my winter wishlist (which is my version of back to school shopping). I like to make a list of what I want to buy over the course of each season, making a list usually helps me from buying things that I either don't need or will later regret. This is what I hope to find for this winter (maybe not these exact items pictured but hopefully something similar)

50s Black Cotton Day Dress

Ive been looking for the perfect 50s dress for a while now, Its become something I seem to have on each and every list I make and yet I never seem to find it. Maybe I'm too picky but It must be vintage, black, have some type of sleeve, be cotton and be something I can wear any day in any season. I really hope I find it soon.

Black Studded Leather Bag
Commix Crossbody
(Matt & Nat Collection)
My style is generally frilly and not very "edgy" so I want a bag that can add a little of that edge to my wardrobe

Raw Natural Ring
(Billy Bride Jewelry)
Its pretty, enough said

BIG Turquoise Jewelry
1940/50s American Indian Turquoise Ring, Silver : Erie Basin Antiques
(Erie Basin Ring)
I love how natural and down to earth turquoise jewelry is, Ive been looking forever for huge turquoise accessories that look natural not the bright solid hues.

Maxi Skirt
Wool-blend paneled maxi skirt - Rick Owens
(Rick Owens skirt)
I wrote my reasoning here,  and for the record, any wool maxi skirt is fine, it doesn't need to be $800, *gasps*

Ballet Flats
(Topshop Flats)
To me good flats are essential to any wardrobe and since my flats are falling apart. I decided I need some new ones that don't have holes in the toes, by the way aren't these lace up ones adorable?

YSL Ring
Yves Saint Laurent Arty metal ring
(net-a-porter.com)
Hahaha I really cannot justify the price of this, this is the one thing on my wish list that is truly unattainable =( But its so pretty I just had to add it.

Black Velvet Tights
(Monkl)
They are pretty and most of all warm enough for winter!

Whats on your wishlist for the coming season?
XOXO

  12. we've got some major overlaps on our wishlists!!! I've wanted a raw crystal ring for forever now in amethyst & gold; I've found an amethyst geode gold pendant but I think I still want a raw crystal ring. I've also got major lust for anything that's a 50's dress/skirt...vintage is too hard to find in my large size! Finally, the bucket bag is AMAZING. If I didn't have 10000000 things that are studded (or leather, for that matter) I would get it.

    RE your comment on my blog: Thanks (as always) for reading my post and taking the time to comment! I'm always way too busy to comment in response to people's blogs (since I talk too much so it takes me 5 mins instead of 5 secs) but I just wanted make sure you know how much I appreciate your comments!

    PS. you don't ever look amish (although I agree, that's not even a diss...how someone thinks calling a person "amish" is a criticism needs to get some lessons in culture) in your outfit posts.
