Window Shopping

October 4, 2013

This is the first time I've ever posted a wishlist on Within Color.  As someone on a pretty tight shopping budget, I've learned to be okay reusing closet items, outfit repeating, and -- perhaps most importantly -- to admire things from afar.  In theory, if I were to win the Powerball or inherit an unexpected fortune, some of the things on this list would be the first purchases I'd make with my windfall.


1. Kiki Ballet Flats from J. Crew:  I go through black flats like tissues.  Unfortunately, I've never been able to invest in a nice pair of leather ballet flats.  These would be a great introductory pair, as I'm afraid Repettos or Chanels are still beyond my reach.  (Who am I kidding?  So are these.)
2. Joelle Hawkins by Treesje "Hunt" Crossbody Satchel:  The buttery pebbled leather reminds me of the Givenchy Pandora in black pebbled leather (probably my All Time Favorite Bag), except this one's almost two grand cheaper.
3. Mirror Metallic Leather Belt from J. Crew:  I'm never wild about belts until I find an one with an interesting quality (animal print, neon, calfhair, patent, etc.).  I don't think I've seen the perfect silver one... until now.
4. Purrvana Cat Sweatshirt from OriginalCatHouse:  I love cats.  I love Nirvana.  Oh well.  Whatever.  Never mind.
5. Abstract Twisted Metal Cuff from Forever 21:  With the exception of my engagement and wedding rings, I almost never wear jewelry.  However, this weird, swervy, crooked, and (faux) gold cuff has me reconsidering.
6. Sweet Polka Dot Beanie from Forever 21:  I've featured the only hat in my collection on Within Color --  a leopard print beanie.  Hats are still a new territory for me, so I figure I should stick with what I know and I know that I can occasionally rock a beanie and that I'm weak for polka dots (and I clearly have a problem).
7.  Everly Ankle Boot in Leopard from Jeffrey Campbell:  If there's one thing I don't have enough of, it's ankle boots.  I mean, I have three pairs, but that's practically zero, right?  Right?
