left wanting

on my lust-list:

Fox Dress from Opening Ceremony

The funkiest little saddle shoes ever, by who else but Jonh Fluevog.

The dress isn't likely, but if I'm feeling rich later this spring, I'll be prancing around with mandarin-orange feet.

verve is a good sounding word

I'm not a purse person. It took me three years of university to finally ditch my MEC backpack for something a little more fashionable, and even then, not really anything daring or expensive.
So when I say I want to drop a grand to get this versace bag, it must be love. or lust. or something.

But seriously, I need help finding something unique like this but in my price range (i.e. under $200). Does anyone know any designers that might be good to check out?

not much

I just want to say that this is the perfect dress for me.
That's all.

Soft is one of my favorite words. It's one of those onomatopoeic words - the f and the t rustle together and the s is like a brush from a feather duster. And who can resist puppies, knit sweaters, or silk miu miu purses with swallows on them?
Not I.

Carrying stuff

I need a spring bag with a lot of practicality and a bit of style.
Seriously considering the modcloth canvassing backpack, and dreaming about skipping from class to class with the want les essentials de la vie laptop bag.




Anyone have other suggestions? I'm more of a shoe person, really, so I'm not up on the affordable-yet-stylish bag designers.

yeah, well... yeah.

(It seems all I do is post about my opening ceremony lusts)



yeah, this is more of a fall look. but i love it. this girl shot by the face hunter has only convinced me further that if these go on sale...
my bank account will be sad.
but my feet will be happy.

a camel coat is another thing on my to-get list. but... one thing at a time.
I calculated about half of the things I want for spring: fifty bucks here, two hundred there, and the total was already reaching a grand. i wish i was more lucky / more skilled at thrifting.

Dilemma.

I don't neeeed more shoes. But I want these. Can you blame me?
Things I do need: skirts. I currently have one (one!) good skirt, and lately pleats are on my mind. Despite spending 13 years in a private school with hideous kilts, I still want pleats.
Pastel! Pretty! Floral! That's what's on my mind, but I really have difficulty styling these things. I'm not a girly girl. I love my combat boots and skinny jeans. Anyone have tips for making the transition easier?

There are shoes, and then there are shoes.

Misty

When I was about 10, my daydreams were about getting lost in the forest. There I would ingeniously fend for myself by building clever and cozy houses, eating whatever I could catch (slugs, if need be) until I was rescued due to skills with my shiny orange safety whistle. 
In my current daydream, I sit on a rock in a misty forest, thinking about how soft my sweater is and how I love my shoes.
It's up to you what is more realistic.
