I keep my fingers crossed that it resolves with the least damage to you.<br /><br />As surprising it may sound - I have nothing on my fall wish list. Maybe only Church oxfords. ;) For me in a way I can't wait to wear all my fall favorites - camel blazers, trench coat, brogues.<br /><br />And I definitely need to read Joan Didion!Gintahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12016423757664732777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-91906308466652569172012-08-30T04:06:46.579-04:002012-08-30T04:06:46.579-04:00I'm also looking for a nice cream sweater as a...I'm also looking for a nice cream sweater as a layering piece! My ideal sweater would be 100% cotton, cable-knit (or some other nice textured knit) with an o-neck and a nice strong hem. I actually spotted one at Mango this summer that would've done nicely, but now it's gone from their website :( I'm also sort of looking for a pair of dark blue jeans, a white cotton blouse, a breton top (none of them seem to have wide enough stripes for me right now) and a gray canvas skirt, but none of that is actually essential. I'm feeling much more well-sorted for fall than I have for years.<br /><br />Other than that, I do need to think about shoes - black chelsea boots or maybe high-top sneakers, I can't decide which. <br /><br />The only thing that is throwing a wrench into my plans is the fact that I'm invited to a wedding in northern Germany this October. The only dress I own is black, and I have NO appropriate shoes for weather that could already be disastrously wet and cold. Oh well, I was going to try and find a cute green dress anyway.f.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-39723389432544956022012-08-28T08:54:10.939-04:002012-08-28T08:54:10.939-04:00I'm sorry but I find it so pretentious to say ...I'm sorry but I find it so pretentious to say a "ps1 is beneath you."

Such a talented woman. <br /><br />There aren't very many things I want for the fall--a pair of loafers, a pair of dressy flats, a simple black blazer, and maybe some work-appropriate dresses from Steven Alan. I'd also love to get the Acne Rita leather bomber jacket, but that would be a major (and majorly irresponsible) splurge.<br /><br />By the way, that leather mini is beyond hot!

So far (out of necessity) I'm dead set on a coat - something oversized, soft and classic that I can wear for smart or casual, a pair of boots (probably ankle with a chunky heel) and a brown leather wallet (probably a Mulberry). <br /><br />Apart from these essentials, I'd like a very masculine pair of brogues, a cream jumper and a big soft scarf, probably an infinity scarf. <br /><br />As it's my first season of actually having an income after years of being a student, I also have a lot of debt to start paying off and lots of changes to make in the way that I pay household bills, so how much of this list is fulfilled to a high quality remains to be seen!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470207730582600021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-43151707636989383312012-08-23T05:39:34.186-04:002012-08-23T05:39:34.186-04:00I have Didion on the brain too!

I also have eyes on the Boy shirt and saw a similar Gap version yesterday that is more budget friendly. <br /><br />Fall is one of my favourite season and I got covered most of the basics though I would "need" a new jacket... But the plan is to remain focused shopping wise. <br />One of the great lesson learned though blogging is that I don't need that much clothes and that I wear my favorites over and over gain. So the plan is to narrow down my cravings to a couple of things that are actually lacking and will be worth spending on. Now, that's the theory...

I decided to risk a pretty different style for me and actually ordered a pair of shoes online (because the return policy was very reasonable), fingers crossed they work out.<br /><br />I am also completely in love with a pair of Valentino pumps with a low block heel and ankle-strap, but they're hardly available anywhere it seems - http://www.stylebop.com/sg/product_details.php?id=352701 - but I hope not to spend that kind of money on shoes as I am pretty hard on mine. <br /><br />I had to bid goodbye to an old favourite linen dress because it's getting too sheer and worn to be decent, so hope to find a replacement, but that's unlikely seeing as all the shops are moving to fall and winter clothing already.
