I have been naughty

Although my savings have gotten down to the lowest it has been in a few years (mostly due to paying off my African adventure) I couldn't help myself once I realised I was paid a bit early this fortnight. Goodbye $300 bucks in a matter of minutes.

I went a little crazy on ASOS.com. Considering the fact that I have no space in my wardrobe nor a coat hanger that has less than 3 items already draping from it, these purchases were not wise.


I love this 'Rare' dress, I'm quite fond of a Peter Pan collar and
 I love sequins, so this was fate. Hope it looks nice on.

I almost bought the blouse also but for almost $60 I thought best to try and source a cheaper alternative.
I really love the black shift though, I think it would be perfect with stockings and a similar top to wear to interviews when I am going for teaching job interviews next winter. 
Just an update, I ended up caving and buying the blouse too. Can't help myself.

These collar tips were so cute, I couldn't resist. Hate spiders though, 
so I am surprised by their appeal.

This was on sale, and was only in a size bigger than I 
would usually buy, so either it will fit perfectly and my other two
wont or this might be a bit big. But again, love a good peter pan collar.
These remind me of my self in high school. Went through a bit of a skull phase, 
due tot hat my parents would buy me anything with skulls on it for a 
considerable amount of time. 

I usually only wear silver or white gold. However some dress pieces 
I have purchased recently are gold tone or brass so 
I thought this stacker would be a good way of starting to incorporate
the other colours. 

And then I found a sale on some of the pieces from the Erin Wasson 'Low Luv' collection



I had been coveting the Thunderbird cuff for a very long time, however 
got a similar eagle cuff on Gypsy Warrior.com so had to settle with 
these studs. I love the whole aztec, bohemian trend. Although I'd say 
I have been like that since I was 13 so I'd have to say it is more
a trend that best suits me.

This little bracelet was quite expensive, I would never usually spend that much on
costume jewellery and I call it costume just because it is only silver plated. I think I will
attempt to make this my everyday bracelet. If I can remember to put it on.
I used to wear a little red Kabbalah bracelet with a Hamsa on it which I  got from a seller in Israel but
the last few have fallen off almost immediately so I am happy to have something on my wrist again.

I hope everything fits and I am not left with buyers remorse! 
I also hope I look after the jewellery. I have been pretty careless with my earrings lately. For someone who actually works at a jewellery store I am pretty bad a keeping my stuff safe. Touch wood, it is a surprise I still have my diamond ring.
