FASHION: Day before Wednesday Wishlist #4

Hello lovelies! 

I have to say sorry first for being a day late, it's literally because I lost track of my days and I went at least 3 hours this morning thinking it was Tuesday. Oops, I think I need to get back to university already. 

So, let's get down to business, this weeks wishlist, and seeing as I get paid on Friday, I'll have to do my best not to buy it all!


1. Elephant Ring: Topshop £8.50 // 2. Noah's Ark Necklace: Topshop £12.50 // 3. Floral Standard Mid Year Organiser 2012/13: Paperchase £15 // 4. Gold Bead Necklace - Cat: Little Nell £8 // 5. Limited Collection Top Handle Multiple Pockets Handbag: Marks & Spencer £35 // 6. Bunny Print Invert Pleat Skirt: Topshop £34 // 7. Yellow 3D Daisy Burnout Vest: River Island £16 // 8. Spot Print Dress by Rare: Topshop £36


1. Ever since going to Chester Zoo, I've found a love for elephants and this ring from Topshop is just so sweet that if I do find them in store, I think I'll have to get them. 


2. And moving with the animal theme, who doesn't love the tale of Noah's Ark. This necklace has so much character and would give any outfit a dash of personality in my opinion.


3. I badly need to get myself organised and I've been toying with the idea with getting a filofax for a while, but when in Paperchase I saw this beauty. Prettier and half the price of a Filofax, I will DEFINITELY be buying this tomorrow when I'm in Manchester. I'm sensing another haul post, oh dear.


4. Whilst surfing blogs, as you do, I came across a blog post about Little Nell. A small online jewellery store which I will be buying from on Friday because I have literally fallen in love with this cat necklace and few other pieces. Wahey!


5. When I was in Manchester with my parents, we were wandering through Marks & Spencer and my eye was immediately drawn to this BEAUTIFUL bag. I think it'd be a perfect everyday bag and for £35, I think it's very reasonable looking at the quality of the material in general and how much use I would get out of it.


6. I love rabbits, too much and I am immediately drawn to anything with a bunny print and this gorgeous pleated skirt isn't any different. I think the colour is dead on trend as well as the pleats and girliness. I think it would be perfect with a white cami and the cat necklace above. 


7. I think this vest is a perfect summer staple for me from River Island and I think I'll have to invest for my holiday because of how bright and summery it is :)


8. As soon as I saw this dress, I fell in love. I love how demure it feels, with the neckline and belt, I'd feel very prim and proper in this dress, especially with a smart pair of brogues, ooooh, I love. 


All of my picks this week I literally can't get out of my head and I'll have to stop myself going a little mad with my first pay packet, eeep! Anyway, I hope you have a lovely rest of your Wednesday my dears!

FASHION: Day before Wednesday Wishlist #1

Hey lovelies, 

This is my first wishlist for 'The Art of Turning Pages' and seeing as I get my Graze boxes on Wednesday and want to do a post for them, I'm now renaming this one 'Day before Wednesday Wishlist.' Original, I know. 


1. Sleeveless Tapestry Denim Shirt: Topshop £35.00 // 2. Scrabble Magnets: Topshop £8.00 // 3. Cut Out Peep Toe Wedge: New Look £24.99 // 4. Blue Spot Lattice Strap Playsuit: New Look £24.99 // 5. Fleur Nude Side Bow Sandal: Miss Selfridge £22.00 // 6. Pastel Bead Collar: Dorothy Perkins £12.50 // 7. Floral Cut Out Bowler Bag: New Look £19.99 // 8. Froggy Ring: Top Shop £8.50

1. I absolutely adore this denim shirt, the detailing on the back and over the shoulders is lovely and it'd be perfect for the summer. Help though guys, what would you wear this with? Is Jessie J right when she said you can't trust anybody who wears denim on denim?!

2. Oh my goodness, I NEED these in my life. I don't even have my own fridge but they will be on it when I am lucky to have my own home! 

3. I tried these wedges on in store when waiting for a friend and they look so cute on and I can't get them out of my head. I don't really have a pair of plain black heels/wedges and I really think they would be a perfect addition to my shoe collection!

4. I saw this at the same time as the wedges and instantly fell in love. Perfect for your summer holiday or pretty underneath a denim jacket and flats for a cute day look. I neeeeeed this!

5. Okay, I know I've said this a lot now but I need these as well. I have a summer holiday in September and I think these little flat will be perfect for the day and night. These will be a holiday staple of mine.

6. Okay, I'm going to admit, I literally have no idea how to wear one of these but when I saw it I wanted to learn. The pastel colours are so pretty and perfect for the summer.

7. I'm a sucker for a handbag, like most of us ladies and this one was no exception. I love the floral detail a lot and the colour of the bag means it will go with anything and big enough to use as a day bag. I will be investing in this beauty, if I can find it.

8. I LOVE frogs, just love them so when I saw this on the Topshop website, I did a little squeal, it's just so crazy cute! And I need to add to my ring collection, I only have 3 not including the engagement ring! :( 

So, that was my first wishlist. And I literally can't not have every single piece on it. I hope you liked my ramblings! 

Any items you like on my list? 

Lots of love,
