September Wishlist

Boy, even with a part-time job and the shop, I still can't afford anything. As I said before, I'm currently saving up to buy a camera...and so clothes are off limits! But, if I had some extra dough to spend...here is exactly what I would buy.

Zara: $39.90

So this dress is completely amazing! And decently priced! Someone might have to stop me from buying it in all three colors...but, I doubt anyone will because it's just that amazing. Ahh...just simple polka dots, peter pan collars, and fall colors...

Madewell:  $188 Topshop:  $125 Madwell: $88 Topshop: $100

I know everyone has been abuzz lately about the Alexa Chung for Madewell collection, so I thought I'd add my two cents, too. It's beautiful! There was some stupid article online depicting celebrities looking "terrible" and she was it it! The author wrote that they couldn't understand why she was considered a fashion icon. Well, if you can't understand it, then you don't deserve to know! The collection is a bit pricey however...so I don't think I'll be getting my hands on those lovely velvet shorts anytime soon. The two pairs of shoes are from Topshop...I'm still on the hunt for that perfect black wedge...and who doesn't like richly colored leather loafers?

ASOS: $126.38 Topshop: $160 ASOS: $16.85 Topshop: $170

Here are some more UK finds from ASOS and Topshop.  Khaki seems to be really popular this season and it is one of those colors that has just taken over my brain! I've never been one to really wear much green, so I guess I'm making up for it now! I've gotten a winter coat from ASOS in the past, and while they are on the cheaper end on the winter coat pricing spectrum, they do not lack in quality at all!
This reindeer headband is really quite adorable...I think I might try and replicate it for a future shoot, instead of paying and enormous amount of money for this leather one! To go with my winter coat, I think I might get this beanie! The enormous pompom on top is the best! And lastly...here is a nice unattainable leather satchel.

Time to get back to writing the background chapter for my proposal on "Fire Safety in Green Products." Fun times.

The Workings...

Here are the workings of a future update! I have been so lucky lately in that I just been finding fantastic stuff! Here are just a couple of the shoes and purses I have ready and waiting.

Did I update sooner than you expected?
I certainly didn't expect it.

Back to work!

It's Been Too Long...

Well, my lack of posts should be some indication of what school has been like for  me. I have more work than I could ever have imagined! But, if you've been checking up on the store, you'll notice that I've still been steadily updating! No amount of school work could ever keep me from thrifting and listing!
I was planning on doing a small update tonight, but Etsy was acting up and not allowing me to post anything. Oh well. Maybe I will get to it this weekend. (I hope so, anyhow!)
I will be going to Washington D.C. for seven weeks in October, so I'm currently seeking ways to keep the shop open for shipping items during that time. Hopefully, it will work out!
On a side note....I've been shopping for a new camera...one of those bridge models between a point-and-shoot and a SLR. As a result, I really have not felt like taking any photos AT ALL EVER because my current camera is so lacking. I will definitely be getting said camera soon. Maybe next week if all goes well.

Until then,

Happy shopping/thrifting/living!

(Who knows when I'll post again?)
(I think soonish, but not too soonish.)
