Summer Listings

Hello Glitterbugs,

Not a Motivational Monday today, I looked and looked at quotes and I couldn't really find anything that suited. Last week was quite challenging in my personal life (although great in my work life) so I won't try to preach to you how to do something when I'm not feeling it myself. 

Instead, I thought I'd do one of my favourite blog activities, a list! 

Lists bring me the greatest of joys. I wrote a similar one last year and remember enjoying trying to tick everything off. As life has progressed there are new things to try and more adventures to be had so I thought it would be nice to set out a hopeful goals list of things to do this summer. I'll check back in September and see how I got on.

2015 Fashion Wants

Aloha Sprinkerinos,

Did anyone ever tell  you, 'I wants don't get' when you were little? I heard it a lot and think the jist is, 'don't be a spoilt brat and be happy with what you have'. Cool. 

I think it's good to want things and to visualise what you are working towards, plus, I like thinking about happy things like this and like even more to make a list, so this post, you guessed it, is a list!

With the turn of the new year I have been thinking about little updates I want to make to my wardrobe and mentally making a checklist of things I'd like to try more of or try for the first time this year. 

Are you ready? Let's go. 

In 2015 I want ::

Flower crowns & headbands

Wooden bangles with golden details

Maxi skirts that float like there is always a breeze

Bright jackets to wrap round me with big buttons and deep pockets

Cobalt blue heels (with uber tanned legs)

Rose gold anything

Big slouchy brown bags for all my Mama junk

Full skirts with cute prints and petticoats

Sweet cardigans with scalloped edging

Pearls on everything

Hints of leopard print

Denim shorts with rose gold studs on the pockets

Dresses with big bows at the back and sweet details at the front

A bikini that works miracles

A floppy hat that compliments the bikini

Giant tortoiseshell sunglasses

Black patent mary jane shoes

Oooeeeee a wishlist to lust after. 

I would love to leave more lists lying around here in 2015. Do you have any requests or suggestions? Also, what are you wishlisting for this year? It doesn't hurt to dream!!

Toodlepip!
