What I have my eye on at the moment

I am trying to avoid spending a fortune at the minute, but there are some things that I've had my eye on for a while and I suspect that one or two items will be making an appearance in my wardrobe very soon.

There's this dress from Coast that I've been eyeing up on asos.com for a good few weeks.





This Dorothy Perkins top is awfully cute. I have become a big fan of Dorothy Perkins recently. They have some lovely tops in at the minute.


 


This Karen Millen skirt is probably going to be mine ten minutes after I've finished this post.


 




I have also spotted some really cute patent daisy shoes by Rocket Dog. They are so pretty. I love the daisies on them, but I probably won't end up buying them because Rocket Dog shoes are notoriously uncomfortable. I have read reviews saying the same. I have a lovely pair of Rocket Dog shoes I bought a few years back and they pinch even when I'm just trying them on so I'd have no chance wearing them for any period of time. Maybe I should go a size up? It's such a shame not to own these beauties!








Another cute find was this bunny print scarf from Oasis. I love light, summery scarves and I love cute little prints and this combines the two and the neutral colour will look good with any outfit.














I usually love Irregular Choice for their heels, but these cute cherry pumps have caught my eye recently. They are called Look At Me. They're available in black or gold and I really can't decide between the two, giving me the perfect excuse to save my cash... hopefully. Which ones would you go for?

I love Irregular Choice's Trinkletina shoes!

My favourite pair of shoes are Trinkletina by Irregular Choice. I absolutely love them!
I have them in 8 different colours and would love to have them in even more.




My favourite pair are the bright blue felt ones with red polka dot bows. I think they are really cute and I love the bright contrasting colours. The blue perspex heel is beautiful as well.
I have 3 Irregular Choice bags to match these shoes. This Lola frame handbag is lovely. I'd had my eye on it for ages before buying one of my very own.
It is a bit larger than I expected it to be and I think that does slightly take away from how cute it is, which is a shame, but it's still a lovely bag. I also have it in black and I will probably end up getting the red/floral one I've seen too.





I also have this Lola cross body bag, which is also larger than I expected it to be. From left to right it measures 9 inches so I can get more in it than I thought I'd be able to when I ordered it!








I also have this Lola clutch bag. I think it looks quite smart and I really love it. The red strap is removable and I never use it on mine.
Handbags aren't really my thing, but I love pretty clutch bags so this one was a very welcome addition to my collection.




There are still some Trinkletinas out there that I haven't managed to track down, but I'd love to own. These black ones are very pretty. I love polka dots.

These lovely turquoise ones are really cute as well. These would look great with a nice summer dress.
These red spotty and stripey shoes are another pair that I wouldn't mind.

I mentioned these green ones in a previous post. I love the detailed pattern on the toes and the mint green bow is very pretty.




I haven't seen any other Trinkletinas that I don't own, which is good news for my bank balance.

3 new release fragrances I cannot wait to try!





I found out about these fragrances on www.fragrantica.com, where you can read about new, old or future fragrances and I have been waiting for these three for months.

I really loved the original Jimmy Choo fragrance and I was even more thrilled by Flash, their more recent release. Earlier this year I found out that Jimmy Choo would be releasing Exotic due out in June 2013, but I have not come across a bottle yet.
The notes are listed as blackcurrant sorbet, fresh pink grapefruit, passion flower, tiger orchid, floral accords, patchouli and gourmand raspberry. It sounds delicious and I love the bottle, similarly designed to the original Jimmy Choo fragrance, but with a bright pink cube lid and the fragrance itself is a juicy berry colour.






I love Juicy Couture's Viva La Juicy and I also love Viva La Juicy La Fleur. I love the big chunky glass bottles that they come in and I greedily always opt for the biggest available so I have the 100ml Viva La Juicy and the 150ml Viva La Juicy La Fleur.
I am really looking forward to trying the new Juicy Couture fragrance due to be released in July 2013, Viva La Juicy Noir.
The notes are listed as berries, mandarin, honeysuckle, gardenia, jasmine, amber, caramel, vanilla and sandalwood.
I can't wait to try it. Like Jimmy Choo Exotic, this fragrance is also a juicy berry colour and the bottle is the same shape as the original Viva La Juicy fragrance, made from chunky glass with a huge black satin bow around the neck.




Another fragrance that I've been looking forward to for what seems like forever is Marc Jacobs Honey. This fragrance is also due for release in July 2013.
In a similarly designed bottle to Dot, but with a more summery bottle. The plastic butterflies have yellow and black stripes to represent 'honey' bees.
The notes are listed as pear, mandarin orange, punch, honeysuckle, orange blossom, peach, honey, vanilla and woodsy notes.
This sounds delicious and I can't wait to try it. I love Marc Jacobs fragrance bottles as well.

The top 5 Irregular Choice shoes on my want list!

I'm a huge fan of Irregular Choice shoes and there are lots of pairs on my want list. Here are my top 5.

I love Cookie Club. The spoon of tasty treats on the front is a really cute idea and I like the clashing stripes. The perspex heel never gets old for me.


  

I also love Trinkletina. I have them in several different colours already, but the next on my list are these ones with the big light green polka dot bow and a lovely intense detailed pattern underneath. I really love these, but they are quite difficult to track down in this colour.


 

Another lovely pair of Irregular Choice shoes I would love are these Cortesan Floral Bar shoes in green.
They are widely available in silver, but these green ones are far prettier in my opinion.

 
 

Another impossible to find pair are the beautiful Cherry Loves It. With the striped, textured heels and the cute t-bar and cherries on the front, I love these. They are available in red, black or pink. I want them in all 3 colours, but if I could only choose one I think I'd go for the red ones. Which ones do you prefer?




I also love these Irregular Choice Northern Lass shoes with their cute designs on the front and the striped wedge heel. These are also difficult to track down, but I'd love a pair.
