Wishlist: Dorothy Perkins

Have you heard of Dorothy Perkins yet? It's a website out of the UK with some incredibly adorable and low-priced clothes, shoes and accessories. I'll warn you - because they're overseas, shipping can sometimes take FOREVER, but shipping is also free! And I'll be honest, it's worth the wait!

Here are some of my (many) favorites from Dorothy Perkins.

Wishlist: Kitschy Animal Sweaters

I love to marry a sense of style with a sense of humor, so I'm all about these silly but cute animal sweaters. Layered over a button-down shirt and paired with skinny jeans and oxford shoes, they're fun and stylish at the same time.

Wishlist: Faux Fur

I've been going through this weird fashion transformation lately. I used to be so low-key, but now I find myself craving glitter, sequins, leopard, pink and faux fur. Am I turning into Miss Piggy?

Here are some faux fur pieces that I'd love, as long as they were paired with simple pieces so that I didn't look like an overindulgent Muppet.

Wishlist: Cardigans

Now that it's finally chilly, my uniform has become top + cardigan + skinny jeans + boots. In my opinion, the cardi is the most important part of that equation, so here are some fab ones I'm coveting.

Wishlist: Makeup

I very rarely wear more than basic makeup (concealer, mineral foundation, blush, mascara, eyebrow pencil, lip balm), yet I have more jars, bottles, tubs and tubes than I know what to do with. So, I've put myself on a ban: no makeup purchases, unless I'm replenishing a staple. But there have been a few items that have caught my eye as of late, so I'm hoping that maybe Santa will be nice to me and satisfy my cosmetic jones.

Wishlist: Forgiving, Stretchy Items

Happy Turkey Day, What-the-Frockers! I'm taking it easy today with just one post so that I can spend the day with turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie my family, but I wanted to wish you a happy Thanksgiving and to post a quick, very appropriate Wishlist: forgiving garments that you can wear while you stuff your face, and not feel like you're going to burst out of them when you're done

So here are some items that are comfy and stretchy, but are elegant enough that you don't look like you're wearing your jammies or gym clothes.

Wishlist: Kelly Green

I tend to gravitate towards colors without realizing it. Lately, I've been through a red phase and a blue phase, and lately, I've been wearing my few yellow items to death. But I feel a new craze coming on, and it's all about rich, beautiful kelly green.

Wishlist: Tell Me About it, Stud

A few weeks ago, my friend Tabitha over at Glitter and Ganache posted about her favorite stud earrings, and I was inspired. I used to be exclusively a big earring girl, and I still lurve myself a bold, dangly earring, but there is something so effortlessly sexy about a pair of simple studs. Here are some that I've been jonesing for lately.

Wishlist: Cheeky Totes

I have so many fabric and canvas totes in my closet, and I'm always on the lookout for more. Totes are great: I use them as gym bags, carry-on bags for travel, overnight bags, and the smaller ones make great lunch bags for work. One of my favorite things about tote bags is the funny, cheeky design that some of them have, and here are some of my faves.

Wishlist: Fluorescent

If you've been following all of the Spring 2012 RTW collections like I have (if not, check them out), you'll know that brights are going to be everywhere next year. I love how fluorescent hues look when paired with soft neutrals like ivory, khaki or grey, and I may have to get some into my closet way before next spring.

I already featured neon brights in the Sunday Splurges feature, but here are some neons that are a bit more reasonably priced.
