Wishing & Waiting

It's never too late for a wishlist! Nobody really buys me anything I want anyways so it's really up to me to make this list come true...

1. Oversized sweater by Dries Van Noten

I've been obsessed with this sweater and all the colors from the Fall 09 runway the moment I saw the collection. I would search high and low for something similar because...where can I even find Dries Van Noten besides ebay?? I thought perhaps 80s oversized mohair sweater would be easy to find, but I haven't had any luck.

2. Triple Bow Embellished pumps by Chloe

Most people here don't know, but I am obsessed with bows. I have a number of items with bows or a resemblance of a bow. They're mostly left over from my craze for lolita styles back in the day (sometimes I still get crazy over anything lolita and I can't help myself).

3. Vintage Leopard print ascot blouse by Wayne Clark

I tore out couple of looks from one of my favorite Japanese fashion magazine, Spur (same story as the picture with the Dries sweater) to copycat some styles. One of the looks had a leopard print ascot blouse and trench coat with boyfriend jeans, and it was so cool and casual.

4. Turquoise Arty Oval ring by YSL (pre-ordered!!)

Like many many people in the world who covet things ring, I too am in love. I couldn't believe it when I found out that Saks is doing a pre-order for new shipments!! Without hesitation I jumped on the list because I don't want to miss out on it again.

5. Vintage Red double breast blazer

Stand out like no other, this bright red blazer with leopard print anything. It's a holiday seduction. Which reminds me, I just recently bought a couple of lip shades. After seeing all the Maybelline commercials on TV..I couldn't resist buying shades of red.

6. Brown wedge lace up ankle boots by Chloe

Sadly, I missed the sales for these..and now they're sold out everywhere! Except on farfetch.com, which priced to kill...as if they bought out all shoes just to resell them at a higher price. *sigh*

I've been doing a lot of online shopping, mostly because I didn't go out this weekend for being under the weather and other reasons that doesn't need mentioning here..but I can't wait to receive these items!
1. Vintage 80's Tan CapeWhat a cool find..and so Chloe-esque!! I hope to get it before my roadtrip. It looks sorta like a rain coat except its a form of heavy cotton and not waterproof sadly...but it sure looks nice.
2. Vintage Gold Costume RingCool amethyst crystal ring with a secret compartment. I wouldn't know what to put there, but it creates a mountain on my finger. Wonder if YSL was inspired by these vintage costume rings or vice versa??
3. Hunter Original Tall Welly BootsSome may recognize these from photos of Kate Moss and find it fashionable. It's also necessary for a winter roadtrip..especially going up north! I originally wanted a light pink color, but it's sold out and was left with not knowing which color to pick, so I opted for a black pair - When in doubt, black is always the right choice (at least for me). I bought them from endless.com, I love the fact that they have free overnight shipping! Perfect for last minute shopping.
4. Vintage Fox Fur BoaMy boyfriend always says to me every time I want fur, "Peta is going to throw red paint at you." And I always justify by saying.."it's vintage!" Honestly though, the only real fur I wear are all vintage. I think recycled fur is fine..but buying new fur is like killing new animal, so I don't know about that.
5. Vintage 80s Missoni Cardigan with all over face printIsn't this so crazy?? Pop art of the 80s! My jaws dropped when I saw this on eBay. I had to buy it for the art...heck I buy clothes for art's sake anyways. One time I explained to someone how I like to collect things, various things, anything amusing and unique. Maybe I don't wear all my clothes, but I do love them for the art. And I guess fashion is how you style the art pieces that you buy...adding/subtracting elements to create masterpieces.
