November's Wishlist

First, let me just say thank you to all who commented on my last post (eShakti review)!  They truly are a great company - so easy to work with, offer a wide variety of ever-changing styles, and the option for custom sizing is hard to find these days.  To extend my Thank You, eShakti has offered my readers a discount code which will give you $20 off your entire order!  The code is SOMETHING0811 and is valid until December 31, 2011.  Enjoy!!!

And now: it's a new month and you know what that means...New Wants!


Last month I did pretty well!  You've already seen my leather skirt, and a couple new button-downs.  Well, I also found a fun sweater that I haven't posted yet, and, of course, a girl can always use more tights and socks.  A nice blazer will remain on my "back-burner" wishlist until I find one that really fits me well.  Here's what's on my mind and wishlist this month:

1.  Chanel-Esque Jacket

Blazers by Lanvin
Jackets at farfetch.com

The iconic Chanel tweed blazer adds instant class and femininity to any outfit.  I plan to wear it over LBDs and even jeans & t-shirts.  A neutral color works best, as a jacket or even jacket-style sweater!

2.  Striped Cardigan

Cardigans by Dolce & Gabbana
Cardigans by Mulberry

I've been obsessed with pullovers recently because of the preppy-chic look of them layered over button-downs.  Well, cardigans need love too!  A striped one adds an instant print to any outfit, and as you'll see below, can look just as good layered over a button-down.

3.  Fall-Colored (Skinny) Pants

Skinny Denim by Rag and Bone
Skinny Pants by Vince

At first I had "rust-colored skinnies" scribbled on my wishlist.  Then I decided they could be any Fall/earth-tone/berry-neutral shade (like rust, wine, plum, tan, etc) and then I realized they didn't have to be skinny - high-waist flares are welcome too :)  In colored denim or even corduroy, any of these shades would complement my closet and extend my wardrobe.

4.  Skinny "Pop of Color" Belt

Belts by Prada
Belts by Stella McCartney

This has been on my mind for a few months now.  And, with all the thrifting/consignment shopping I do, you would think it would be an easy item to find.  Since I have yet to find one, it has now been added to November's wishlist.  A skinny belt in a fun color is a fantastic pop and finishing touch to perfect any outfit.

5.  Rose Gold Jewelry

Necklaces by Tuleste Market
Watches by Marc by Marc Jacobs

Ever since I learned what rose gold was, by way of the ring my Mom handed down to me, I have been enamored with it.  Until recently, it was hard to find.  Especially on my wishlist is an oversized rose gold wristwatch but any rose gold would do, like those cute studs or a bracelet to add to my wrist-candy obsession...
