Wishlist: White Lace Dress

27 April, 2010 Nelia

I have been looking for one for ages! Not just any old white dress. I have strict requirements, you see. As in the following…I like the sleeves of this dress Becki Newton is wearing. LOVE the sleeves actually. I also love the type of lace this dress is made of – larger pattern of flowers that lets a bit of skin to peek through. My perfect dress is on the shorter side, but not too short that I can’t bend over. It doesn’t have a fringe bottom like Becki’s dress, but probably has a bit of untamed and unhemmed lace instead. My perfect white dress will probably have a square or scoop neck, and the lining will be silk, making it ever-so-comfortable for rolling around the lush green meadows on a hot Sunday afternoon.

Have been searching forever for that perfect boho white lace dress, but so far, I’ve had to settle with a few not-so-worthy replacements that make me want the real deal that much more. Some spend their entire lives trying to find a perfect man…well, to me, the search for that perfect dress is just as complicated.

Wishlist: Camel

16 April, 2010 Nelia

Not the animal, silly! The color! More specifically – a camel wool coat. The dynamic duo of The Sartorialist and Garance Doré have been posting photos of camel-clad fashionistas ever since the beginning of Fall 2010 fashion week season, and it looks like the trend (most visible on the catwalk of Céline) is here to stay. So simple, timeless, and chic – makes me kind of wish I hadn’t gifted my camel-colored cashmere  coat to a friend in Houston when I moved to Toronto. Is it in poor taste to ask for it back? Ok, I won’t, but I guess a shopping expedition is in order.

Wishlist: Burberry Shearling Boots

3 March, 2010 Nelia

Aren’t these Fall 2010 Burberry shearling boots just amazing? Here I am happy as as can be that it’s almost spring, and then I lay my eyes on these awesome boots, and it makes me wish it was winter all over again…but then again, I think about the slush that would ruin these beauties, and I change my mind. And then the whole thing all over again…Oy!

The good thing about all this, is that I have an entire year to look for a proper replacement – perhaps with a more practical heel. Any leads?

Wishlist: Floral Shorts

2 March, 2010 Nelia

Ahh, spring! Well, not in Toronto. Not yet. But definitely, definitely in stores all over the place! Am drooling over so many pieces of clothing/accessories, that I think I’ll need another job just to be able to afford everything. Le sigh.

Well, enough of sadness. Because who could ever feel sad if they had these babies? I don’t know if it’s the floral print, or the fullness of these shorts, but the moment I saw these Forever 21 shorts, I could not stop thinking about them. And since they aren’t yet available for purchase (not online, at least), I am doomed to keep drooling.

My friend Jo also pointed me to this other pair of floral shorts from Urban Outfitters. These are quite cute as well. Perhaps a tad too long for my taste (I’m no hoochie, but I do like to show off my legs in the summer), but I’ll consider them if the Forever 21 pair doesn’t quite pan out.

What do you think about these? Fun or fugly?

Wishlist: Aldo Welden

24 February, 2010 Nelia

Spring has been on my mind since…December. And now, most stores actually reflect my wishful thinking! Hooray! The latest on my list of “wants” is the Welden lace-up shoe from Aldo. Great detailing, perfect heel (not too high, not too low), and a pretty good price point – $90. I think I am sold. Now can we just make all this snow disappear?

Update: Got these! Now if only the weather would cooperate, so that I could take these for a spin!

Wishlist: Be&D Genesis

22 February, 2010 Nelia

So my quest for a perfect everyday bag continues. And I think I just stroke gold! As my Miu Miu Coffer is looking more and more ragged, this Be&D doppelganger might just be a perfect substitute! At around $1000 USD, it’s on the lower pricing end of luxury bags, yet the size and design of it seem perfect. I, especially, love the fact that it has a cross-body strap, which is perfect for those days when I need two free hands while running errands around town. The leather looks nice and durable and while Genesis does have that Coffer quality to it, it’s also much more simple than my Miu Miu. I think…it might just be the one!
