If you got the money...

...you're lucky! Take advantage of the Net-A-Porter sale and get more fabulous peices for your money. They've added more items and made further reductions.

I've picked out some of the investments I'd like to make if I actually had a salary...

These gorgeous nude Jimmy Choos - reduced to £263.90

This adorable Juicy Couture coat - £129.50

This chic Marc by Marc Jacobs dress - £178.50

This cute Miu Miu skirt - £215.60

This aqua Mulberry Milton bag; a great shade for the summer - £389

Sorry, I couldn't help myself! Had to put a bit of Zac Posen in here, and I've been lusting after this classic dress since I first saw it at full price. It's now reduced to £1561. Not the cheapest item on offer, but worth every penny.

Spot the Trend...

Since my post on Spring/Summer fashion, I've been thinking a lot about the pink Zac Posen outfit - one of my favourites. Today I have spent a lot of time collecting pictures from Style.com and noticed that this kind of ensemble was everywhere! It seems the crop-top is well and truly back. But don't fear ladies; The way to wear it is with high waisted shorts or a skirt, which not only makes the look a lot less trashy than the 90's version of the trend, but means you can conceal that winter belly, making the look a lot more accesible. No need for Britney style ab-crunches then.

Here are some of the oufits I found today...

Some warm thoughts..

Despite the fact that it is NEVER warm in Britain over the summer - unless I'm out of the country - I have been thinking a lot about next season and what I should invest in (high street versions of course) trend/colour wise. It's also a nice distraction from how FREEZING it is right now. I should be thinking about a new coat to invest in, but Spring/Summer is much more fun to look at.

So Luella is feeding my new obsession with all things insanely girly - think lilac/pink/orange/florals. Here is one of my favourite outfits from the show:

How cute are the shoes?! Orange also seems to be the colour to invest in. However, anyone seeing a bit of Chanel here?? There were a few outifits similar to this... I prefer the first part of the collection personally.

Oh yes, I am biased when it come to the wonderful Galliano, but how adorable is this hat? Completely unpractical (or inpractical? hmm) but I love it, and as always he wows me with his colour pallettes, chic coats and floaty florals. This outfit is from his John Galliano collection. It was very hard to pick a favourite but this hat just completes it for me.

Yes, more orange, but this floaty little number caught my eye, and if I had Jourdan's figure I would be wearing it all summer long. If Ilived in the south of France. Also a Galliano creation, this time for Dior.

At Lanvin, Alber Elbaz plays with volume whilst still keeping the collection elegant. The colours are more wintery, but when you live in the UK I guess it makes no difference anyway. I personally love this dress. The whole collection makes me wish I had the need to wear an evening dress every night of the week, inspiring the 'power-woman' in me.

Balmain have stunned once again with a collection of gorgeous dresses, and extremely lust-worthy jackets. Though the dresses are made for the skinny kind, it's not like I can afford them anyway so I'm allowed to dream, and share the dreaminess with you.

Zac Posen seemed to have a very glamazon theme, and reminded me a lot of Cavalli and Dolce & Gabanna - particularly with the floaty leopard print peices. Underwear as outwerwear will always win me over, especially when it's pastel pink and teamed with a blazer.

So basically, until I have the high earnings I dream of, this blog is purely going to be based on me fantasising about fantastic fashion (hence the name). So while were on the topic of Cavalli, why not throw this STUNNING dress into the post?

Would love to hear of everyone elses favourite S/S '09 moments or opinions on my opinions...

Thank you for visiting!

PS. Will try to keep the blogging more regular, but I kinda feel bad sitting on here for hours when my boyfriend's come down to see me! Oops.

All I Want for Christmas...

With less than one month to go, I thought I would share with you some of the things that are on my wish list. That is, if someone in my family were to inherit a lot of money within the next 26 days..

THE studded Gucci shoe boots! I'm having a thing for both studs and black shoe boots this season, so these would be perfect if anyone's offering?

If they happen to be sold out, which would be no surprise, I would hapily settle for this pair.

The more I blog, the more aware you will become of how OBSESSED I am with getting a Chanel bag.. and this is gorgeous... Nice shade of grey, I prefer these chains to the ones with leather intertwined (they tend to look fake) and I prefer the simple twist lock without the CC logo, as that tends to make them look fake too. AND, the more I admire Chanel bags, the more I prefer the larger sizes... definitely a jumbo for me, which unfortunately means an even less realistic price tag.

On the topic of Chanel, how cute are these tights? I've been lusting after them for months, thinking, 'they're only tights they'll be £50 max'. Nope. The kind lady at the Sloane Street boutique informed me of a price somewhere around £180. I snag tights too often to take that risk, but if someone else where to buy me them...

Insanely high Dior Couture shoes - combining my love of studs, bows and extreme height in one hot pair of shoes. Let's face it, I'd never be able to walk in them, and if I could I would resemble the BFG, and my boyfriend would not be best pleased once again as my love of sky high heels means I tower over him. But still, I'll make a shrine for them in my room... I just want to admire them on a daily basis if I'm honest. Worth every penny...

This whole Zac Posen outfit (or the whole Fall collection if youre feeling generous). The magpie inside me loves the sequined detail and on the whole it just appears to be such and adorable flattering dress. Even the pom poms all the models sported in their hair have been on my mind since I first saw this collection many months ago. I finally bought my black wool today, so expect a future blog on how DIY pom pom making goes. In the mean time, BUY ME THIS DRESS!

------------

So to conclude, I have discovered I seem to pay a lot more attention to accessories than I do actual clothes, unless particular things catch my eye - in which case it's most often couture. I seem to be a bit monochrome both with my own wardrobe and what I lust after, despite the fact that my favourite designer is my number one partly because of his use of vivid colour (John Galliano in case you were wondering). Maybe I need to step outside my comfort zone and experiment with colour some more, however 'classic' black and white is...
