now enough of my emotional divulging and onto my favourite part. the material wishlist haha. in retrospect i really wish i bought more things in europe. but of course first priorities weren't shopping but instead $$$ was spent on taxi rides to uni, bottle upon bottle of moscato and all the cheeky trips. i definitely don't regret this, although it has left me with a burning hole in my pocket, an overused wardrobe and a desire to start over (figuratively and literally speaking). i've actually considered the contents of this wishlist carefully. it indeed is more exxy than past wishlists but i believe turning 21 calls for a level of adulthood and thus requires finer but staple objects that will last longer than a trend or season.
10 things i need to be 21
1. comme de garcon cardigan in black. this is a staple that will never grow old. besides 100% wool ensures functionality and fashion. the beige twin is equally endearing but i still can't seem to shake the black away from my wardrobe.
2. basic tees. i really only want four sorts, black, white, grey and striped. i highly fancy this white comme version . the rest that is causing me to salivate includes this cute alexander wang striped crop, acne's cotton melange relaxed fit tee, and bassike's vintage crew neck in black.
3. the everyday bag. since it's a wishlist i can technically wish. i am so in love with the saint laurent black leather tote bag. saint laurent is everything i could want in a brand. classic, sophisticated, dark and simple. just like that bag. completely understated but you know it's no cheap bitch.
4. new sunglasses. digging these karen walker the number one sunnies. i'm not a big sunnies fan but these are quirky, cute, good shape and i won't get sick of them that easily.
5. denim dungarees. i am a big fan of overalls. i just can't seem to find a pair that fits perfectly. its either loose at the waist, or bulging so it looks like i have a giant vagina or something haha. this could potential be a vintage find.
6. socks and kicks. these new balance 996's are beautiful. i also don't mind these adidas gazelles but i just can't stop frothing over those new balances. in terms of socks i just need nice basic crew ones and a nice pendelton-esque black navaho looking pair. just anything that doesn't look like i've stolen my dad's socks... which is usually the case ha
7. the everyday boots. i've already had these cheap monday boots which i brought along with me to europe and murdered with my excessive usage. i love them, they're comfy, have the right height and go with absolutely everything under the sun. i definitely need another pair. also loving these opening ceremony grunge booties. but seriously the cheap mondays. i need them back in my life.
8. splendour tickets this would evidently make my tumultuous- i haven't really decided if i like this year or not- 2013. it only has mumford and sons and frank ocean plus many more swoon worthy people playing. fingers crossed i can work around the minor hiccup of being in the phils haha
9. new ink. well money for new ink really. i'm getting antsy for a bit of needlework. as i always seem to do.
10. a new job. that i love and will get me out of the country, so i can be in europe and not so depressed about the current condition of my existence. please Lord. thanks.
love,
