Top 10 This Week #6

Studded peplum top: Lipsy // Fossil ice cube tray: Topshop // Domino clutch: Charlotte Olympia // Slogan jumper: Markus Lupfer // Tweed-bouclé jacket: Étoile Isabel Marant // Tights: Wolford // Embellished collar: Miss Selfridge // Sparkly nail varnish: Louise Gray for Topshop // Sequinned dress: Louise Gray for Topshop // Collar dress: H&M

Can we all just take a minute to admire how wonderful this Étoile Isabel Marant tweed-bouclé jacket is? Every few months or so I find a new piece by Isabel Marant that I fall completely and totally and inextinguishably in love with, a piece that I feel will find a solution to all my little daily woes and probably sort out all the world's debt, poverty, and violence in the process. This jacket is that piece. On first glance, it doesn't really seem like much. But look closer: see that soft, woolly texture that would leave you so lovely and snug of a cold winter's morning. That dark mossy colour so reminiscent of joyful woodland walks and dappling sunlight between trees (which also evokes the coming season's army trend, nice!). The ribbed collar and cuffs - school jumper nostalgia! - and loose, slouchy fit that would lend such a nonchalant yet pulled-together air to any ensemble; the insouciance that Marant does so well.

But at £405, one can but dream.

Top 10 This Week #4

1: Mimi Holliday // 2: Dorothy Perkins // 3: Dolce & Gabbana // 4: Hudson // 5: Mela // 6: River Island // 7: Dune // 8: Chinti and Parker // 9: Maison Martin Margiela // 10: New Look

Found some pretty good contenders for my favourite ankle boots this week - I'm particularly tempted by the Hudson ones as they're 1/3 of the price of the Rag & Bone ones, plus as they're on the Topshop website I could use student discount and I have a voucher... I might actually buy them this weekend!

I'm absolutely loving this Dolce & Gabbana dress. I'm going to head to the charity shops this afternoon to see if there's a ridiculous duvet cover/curtain I can salvage the fabric from to make something similar. 

Also in desperate need of some new slippers - these New Look ones are brilliant - as I keep tidying my room and not finding any of my old ones! I have 4 single slippers, all different styles and patterns, but none of them matching!

Top 10 This Week #1

This week's wishlist is pretty eclectic... I've been seeing potential DIYs in so many things lately, especially this Acne leather jacket, potentially the McQueen dress if I can find some nice fabric, and maybe even the stag plate if I can find some cheap plain plates? I'm also on the lookout for fun house stuff, since I'm moving to my new flat with my boyfriend in the first week of September. We'll only have a few days before semester (of our FINAL YEAR OMG) starts, so I want to get as many things as possible before we actually move in! Luckily it's only about 30 seconds up the street from my current house so we won't have too far to lug everything!

On that note, does anyone have any favourite homeware/interiors online shops? Particularly UK Etsy sellers!
