Current Wishlist:

Here is a peek at a few of the items that have been filling my wish list (although I may have already purchased two items). There are more pieces that I am wanting to add to my closet for the upcoming season, so I will be doing a second part soon.

1. Missguided Shearling Jacket: This past winter, I realized that I had no go-to casual jackets. I have a bunch of blazers, cropped leather jackets, and beautiful faux fur/ puffer jackets but nothing that I could just slap on with a pair of leggings and booties and be out the door. I wanted something slightly longer and oversized so when I found this one at Misguided, I bought it immediately. I was able to get it at 40% off with the student discount code but Misguided does frequent sales. The size I got was a US 2 or a UK 6 and I could have gone with a US 0 to be honest so if you are between sizes, I would size down.

2. White Missguided Mom Jeans
When I saw these jeans, I flipped out at their amazing-ness. I have been wanting a pair of super high waisted white mom/vintage style jeans that are tapered at the ankle and slim fit throughout the leg but very tight and fitted around the waist. I looked at the Levi's wedgie fit jeans but could not manage to track them down in white. I had never been into this loose-jean trend that has been around lately with the ripped boyfriend and super flare jeans. For me, I love skinny jeans, and I think that the skinnier the denim the better. Lately, I have been so into the slim-fit trouser pants that are high waisted and tapered/slim fit down the leg. Naturally this led me to the mom-jean, something that gives me all the model-off-duty vibes. I think mom jeans are so flattering with a simple, tight tee and some block-heeled shoes. I was considering the Levi's C&T in white, but I was afraid that they would not be high waisted enough for me. When I saw that these Missguided mom jeans had PINK STITCHING, my mouth dropped. These aren't the best fit around the waist, as they could be tighter but I think that they are a good length and a good fit around the legs. The denim has no stretch, something that I am not used to, but I think that this comes naturally with all mom jeans. I got a size US 0 or UK 4 and I normally wear a 23/24 in jeans. I would size down if you are in-between sizes.

3. Hermes Belt
These have been so trendy lately and I have been seeing them on many people (although I question how many of those are authentic). I have been wanting a nice belt lately whether it be Hermes or Gucci. Who knows if I will actually shell out the money to get this item, or  if Hermes even makes this color combination of the pink leather with a silver buckle. To be honest, this piece is more wishful thinking than something that I foresee in my near future.

4. Pink Slide Loafers
Ever since Gucci introduced the slide-loafer, I have been wanting to get my hands on a pair of pink leather ones at a decent price. I think these will be perfect in the summer with a casual pair of white shirts and a pink blouse. This pair happens to be by Jeffrey Campbell and I like how they are a version of the slide loafer without being an blatant copy of the Gucci design.

5. Leather trousers // Coated leggings
I wear the death out of my lululemon wonder under leggings but lately I have wanted something dressier but also just as comfortable. I love the look of leather pants but never really looked into it because I think that they can be done really well or really cheap-looking. The leather pants that I tend to think look the nicest are real leather and retail for hundreds of dollars. My go to bottoms in the winter is always black, whether it be denim or leggings tucked into black booties. I wanted something that would give me an added texture without being too out there and I thought that leather trousers would be perfect. I wanted something that didn't look like a leotard/ catsuit fabric and I definitely wanted to make sure the faux leather was textured and not super shiny to keep them classy yet edgy. H&M had an amazing pair that were unfortunately too short so I had to return them and these by Beyond Yoga are very popular among celebrities and models. I have seen many model-off-duty looks featuring these coated, glossy leggings dressed up and down.

6. Givenchy Antigona
This bag has been on my mind since it first became very popular many years ago. I have wanted the light pink "sugar" grained leather with silver hard ware. I have been using my LV alma BB in rose ballerina for a while and it's just a little bit small for every day. I realized that I have a gap in my bag collection as I have many mini bags and large totes, but nothing medium sized for everyday. I am still unsure if I want the medium or small size and whether or not I want to hold out to purchase it when I go to Europe in the summer as I will be able to save several hundred dollars.
