Wish List 2012 - Part I

Wednesday, March 7, 2012
I've been window shopping today. Seriously, ONLY window shopping. :) 

So I've realised that whenever I go shopping with the intention of making a purchase/purchases, I hardly ever find anything, and at times leave empty handed. I don't buy something if I know I wont and cannot utilize it properly. 

However, when I am unable to buy anything, I see heaps of stuff I want. It sucks. I guess it's just female nature. :)

Anywhooo, I thought I shall build up a wish list this year and see what out of that list I can actually purchase. :)


This dress. I-MUST-HAVE-IT! I am head over heels in love with the colour, and c'mon, it's lace! Oh, and I don't like the way it looks in the above chic, it looked better on the mannequin and moi. :P

Dress from Portmans, $149.95 in-store BUT reduced to $129.95 online!
Size ranges from 6-16
It is also available in a gorgeous burgundy.


I tried on this beauty today: it fits like a glove and feels like nothing! I am definitely after a pair in this colour soon.

Real leather suede outer and genuine leather inner.
Size ranges from 35-42 (5.5 to 12.5 AUS size)
Available in various colours and finishes.


Also want one in this colour. It can be a ballet flat, but I never prefer ballet flats as I've had painful spurs on my heels for approximately four years... so I prefer slightly heeled, platform or wedge shoes for some heel support. Anyhow, I should also note that this was the most comfortable of the tens of similar stilettos I tried today. It had some padding inside unlike any of the other ones.

Shoes from Betts, $79.99 non-leather suede
Size ranges from 5-10
Available in 4 different colours


If you/ve been following this blog long enough, you already know that I'm on a hunt for mustard items. I really did like this pair, but I don't think I will be purchasing them. I am actually a half size, so I'm a 7.5 (38), and it can get difficult as not all companies carry half sizes. The 38 was quite big, it flip flopped off my feet, and the 37 was quite tight around my toes. So yeah...

Shoes from Sportsgirl, $79.95 non-leather suede
Size ranges from 6-10
Available in four different colours


That's about it for now. I am actually after a nude coloured maxi skirt, but unable to see one anywhere yet.

I have the same problem as you! Whenever I am out to buy something - I can't find what I'm looking for, but when I really want something - I can't buy it! I'm having that problem right now with this one blouse I saw in Zara. IA IA IA I will have it by next week.

SippingChai, OMG don't even mention it! I saw a couple things I really want from Zara too the previous week.. but yeah, same issue, cannot buy! :)

SM, yes these ones are really ideal... I love shoes, and I want to be able to walk in them for hours. unfortunately that's not possible with most pretty shoes with heels :( these ones are so very plain, but their bright colour will add to an outfit what many gorgeous platforms do :) and u can walk in them hehe
