I spend hours browsing websites like netaporter.com, shopbop.com, shopintuition.com, blaec.com, and many more for ideas and love the pieces but could never afford. Here are some pieces i love but all i can do is wish that someday...............
Missoni (addorable)
mui mui studded pumps Orange leather jacket morrocan bracelet
Hmm basically anything that is kinda stupid to spend money on unless you're loaded- for example, a $1200 chloe top.
while I technically can afford it, it would be sooo stupid to buy some flimsy shirt when if I spent $1200 on something, it should technically last me a lifetime (investment bag, really great coat, etc.) Thats how I feel about a lot of clothing, except great coats, nice sweaters, and nice jeans. I'll spend more for those, but not THAT much. But every once in a while i'll see a beautiful $800 shirt or $1000 skirt and just have to remind myself that I don't live that lifestyle. Plus its hard for me to get a lot of wear out of my clothes, i couldn't wear that top above very often. All the more reason that accessories, coats, sweaters, and jeans are where its at!
This bag that lynnie has. It would make everything I own look about 1000x better and I can picture myself as an old lady giving it to my granddaugher (I am fully aware that I have taken this fantasy way too far ). *Maybe* I can get it with some Christmas money or maybe I will just use some of my savings to get it.
