I'm sitting here feeling a bit bad that I didn't get around to shooting what I was wearing today - as soon as I was back in the house at any point during the day, I was glued to the computer and multiple university information booklets, writing ridiculous applications that made me feel like an idiot. It's a bit weird that I'm applying for uni now... I'd been in denial until I realised I only had till the end of the month to decide what I'm going to do with myself for 2011. Freak out time :)

So, I put together a pretty collage for you of all the things I would buy in a heartbeat - just to extend your shopping lists. Don't mention it. Today, we're being a bit inspired by the Tomorrow When The War Began film that I'm aching to watch, but won't get a chance until November, by which time it won't be in cinemas. My post-exams movie marathon is looking impossible.

Moving on :D I'm pretty in love with this shirt, but apparently I'm really not good at the jumping-on-something-before-it's-sold-out thing. I should work on that. And one day, I will own those amazing shoesies - quality stuff to be peeping out from under that piece of new-in TOPSHOP Unique.

After all that, I come to the realisation that this entire post is a giant ramble in preparation for my last Monday of school ever - so what I really meant to say is that I love that this little ensemble ties together everything I enjoy at the momento: utility, maxis, super tall brown leather, and excessive numbers of nature-related rings.

And so, beloveds, nighty nighty.

*love*

For want of Jumble.

Just some I've-got-my-eyes-set-ons. Except for the blazer: If TOPSHOP would kindly give me the print that I could fashion into anything I'd like, then I'm happy OR if they kindly gave me that blazer cut in black... I am also happy. The tapered pants, I have been thinking about - making, not buying. I recently got handed a few old suit sets that my father no longer wanted, so I'm considering turning the pants into high-waisted tapered trousers. And the shoulders of the jackets need altering so I don't look like Frankenstein.

Most importantly: new fascination with magazine clutches! Basically an oversized clutch that isn't all floppy and dead, and will pretty much fit about 2 Vogues... maybe 3. Like a laptop case, but cooler.

Look into my eyes.

As Summer rolls its merry way in the door - today was something like 32 degrees Celcius - I'm starting to feel the need to invest in particular sorts of sunnies. After conducting a mini-hunt, I have discovered the following and realised how much eyewear can alter the way the rest of your outfit comes across.

These slightly stunning Bottega Veneta sunnies are so relaxed but unique and could be used to dress down something that would normally be, maybe, a bit of a stretch for streetwear, or dress up shorts at the beach:

And on the other hand, we have over-sized two-tones. I'm fairly sure I won't have too hard a time looking for PRADA lookalikes, but they certainly won't be quite as shiny:

*love*
