Finally I am going to try and fulfil my New Year's resolution to be a 'better blogger', which means actually posting something from time to time.

Today, -well, this evening-, I managed to have a 'sort out' of my wardrobe; although little has been removed and stored away, I did happen to find a few items of clothing that I believed to have previously 'lost.'

Here is a quick post of what I wore today:

(Sunglasses: Huzzar Vintage @ LFW, Golf: Guess, Jacket: Zara, Silk Skirt: All Saints, Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell, Clutch: Gharani Strok)

Also, I am religiously saving up for a few items, some which I have been desperately lusting after for quite some time.

First of all are these beauties! The Nude Leather Night Walk by Jeffrey Campbell would look perfect with a bright coral/red or black dress. With no idea how a human being is expected to walk in these, and none available in the UK to even try on, I am reluctant to purchase them; however, the idea of grannies' jaws dropping when I strut down the church isle in these bad boys makes me lust over them even more!

Something slightly more modest is a pair of Mint Green Lace Trim socks from Topshop, which I think would be very versatile; tan brogues, Creepers, Night Walks, Doc Martens, the possibilities are endless! They could add a girlie edge to sharp, androgynous tailoring, or compliment this season's pastel lace 50's dresses. At a mere £3.50, I am adding them to my cart.

Strangely, I seem to spend all of my savings on heels/wedges, so have decided to put some money aside for a pair of nice flats. These Underground Creepers, (available at Office for £89) are the strongest contender so far.

LUST LIST! January 2012

Here are a few items I've either lusted after for aaaaaaaaaaages, or simply have caught my eyes recently and I am saving up for...

Jeffrey Campbell 'Lita Spike' in Black

Black Suede round-toe Creepers (either from TUK/Demonia/Underground)

A Cambridge Satchel (either silver/neon yellow/neon green)

Customized Levi's Denim Shorts

'Combined Printed T-Shirt' from Zara

It creeps me out...

I’m absolutely loving Creepers at the moment; they’d look perfect paired with metallic jeans, a vintage band t-shirt and studded leather jacket, or contrastingly with a 1950′s style floral dress and belgian plaited hairstyle.
Underground are carrying the largest selection at the moment; whether to suit a dolled-up barbie or full-blown goth, there is a pair for everyone.


My favourite’s at the moment are the Wulfrun- White Roundtoe Interlace D-Ring Lace-Up’s, in white (but unfortunately I think these are only for men), or the Wulfrun- Suede/Leopard Print Roundtoe D-Ring Lace-Up’s, both available at http://www.underground-cybershop.co.uk/acatalog/creeper_shoes_roundtoe.html. Surprisingly, my mother seems to be craving a pair as well…


I do quite like the idea of buying a plain leather pair and drawing on them with tippex, as was done for the Ashish catwalk; however, the idea of scribbling all over them in silver metallic or green neon sharpie appeals to me more.
