A/W Picks

Here are some of my favourite items in the stores at the moment. I'm really excited by the fact that tartan seems to be around so much as it fits in really well with my current A Level project. I've always admired tartan as it's such an adaptable material:

- Check Embellished Tee, Topshop
- Grafea Leather Backpack, Urban Outfitters
- Vintage Black and White Shawl, Waiste
- Suede High Flatform Trainers, Missguided
- Geometric Print Sweater, Urban Outfitters
- Heart Print Nightshirt, Topshop
- Bardot Crop Top, Missguided
- Colour Block Peplum Dress, River Island
 

 
I have to admit that I'm really lusting for most of the items in Topshop's 'This Is England' range, which is where the Check Embellished Tee is from. Urban Outfitters have got a lovely feature on their site where you can 'shop instantly' from clicking on photos. This is such a great advertisement technique and makes the clothing so fun to look through. In addition, the Bardot Crop Top seems to be really good value at £4.49, thank goodness for Missguided!

Lusting For: 90s Bubble Backpack Bags

I love love love these and I had to write a post about them to express how great I think they are. Firstly, the bags are different to the usual day-to-day bag in that they are inflatable and this just makes them appear to be that much better because they feel fun! Let's face it, what other bag can remind you of being at a bouncy castle party as a child.. or is that just me? The bags also come in a wide variety of colours - another reason to like them. My favourite colours are the turquoise and metallic ones although I think that pink and yellow would be fun colours to have. As well as colours I've heard that there are also different patterns/shapes. Either way, below is a collage of some of the pictures which caused me to fall in love with these backpacks. Let me know what you think of the bags, at a first glance I didn't know what to make of them but as I've seen these types of bags more frequently I can't help but like them. Definitely a wishlist addition!
