Wednesday Wishlist – 16/05/12

ImageUsually my wishlists tend to feature at least one ‘realistic’ item – that is, an item I could actually afford to buy. Which kind of defeats the idea of a wishlist…which is why today’s compilation of pined-after pieces are far from affordable for me at the moment. Here’s to hoping!

I’ve liked Tara Starlet’s stuff for a while now, and when the beautiful Mollie of the Saturdays rocked this co-ordinating tie top, £40, and shorts, £50, ensemble on the cover of Cosmo this month, I knew this would be a look to add to my wishlist. So summery!

This week, my quest for the perfect denim dress continues, and has reaped some rewards in the form of this belted shirt dress, £50, from Oasis. It’s very similar to a denim dress that caught my eye a few weeks back, but this one combines my love of denim with the utility dress style, a favourite of mine at the moment. Definitely a strong contender.

Wedges are my ideal summer shoe, and I love the ones with a pretty length of ribbon to tie up your ankle. These lovely blush pink wedges, £48, Miss Selfridge, would go perfectly with the denim dress. Here’s to hoping we meet again in the sale!

H&M have really upped their accessories game this season, and with a collaboration with Japan Vogue’s editor Anna Dello Russo on the horizon, it’s set to get better and better. I love the vibrant turquoise edges of this straw clutch, £12.99, and the price is closer to my current budget. 

However, there is something on this list that could make the leap from wish to reality, and it’s these fabulous skull earrings by kooky jewellers, Kitsch & Bows. At a bank-balance friendly £6, they’re a treat I can afford to throw cash at this month. Yay!

Happy Wednesday everyone!
