Can you believe we are about to step into April? Happy Easter for tomorrow everyone! Since I always round out the months with a Currently Craving Wish List, I will get straight to it. This month has been one that’s tested my ‘no buying’ rule to the limit actually and to cut a long story short, I broke and have bought two things. In my defense, one of the items was what I was saving up for and selling things I own to put money towards it (more on that soon) and the other was a spur of the moment impulse purchase which I absolutely do not regret – it’s amazing! So, what’s on my wish list for March and April?
First up on the top line are those Gucci sneakers! How amazing are those? Crystals and rainbow metallic? Yes please! They also come in Black (click here). Then there’s a dainty ring, an adorable Kate Spade watch and denim bag (which is definitely very me!), some Gucci sunglasses and a crystal bee ring. I’ve never really bought anything from Kate Spade before, but she really does make some cute little items! Number 7 is from her too.
Now on the bottom line, we start off with the Rebecca Minkoff clutch in a straw material which is ideal for summer, a Balmain blazer (which has been a want of mine for years as they are supposed to fit perfectly), a pair of white Gucci loafers, and then this gorgeous party dress from ikrush! I’m all for wearing more dresses in the summertime and this one in bright red looks ideal. I could definitely see myself styling looks around that one, especially with a leather jacket… which leads me to the next collage below!
I went in Allsaints last weekend and these are the three jackets I fell in love with. I tried them on and put a poll on my Instagram stories asking which one you preferred, and I actually ended up buying one, which those of you who follow me will know! But anyone who isn’t on my Instagram, you will find out in a little while when I do a review of it. I love all three though and adore Allsaints leather jackets (read my review on the Papin), but if you want to guess, which one did I pick? I can’t recommend them enough!
And then on a final note, I haven’t included it in the imagery, but if anyone is interested in a bag that looks just like a certain designer bag that everyone knows, but for only around £15, you can click here to check it out. It’s a great inspired design! What do you think of it? And as always, let me know what items are on your wish list and what you love from mine! Lorna xx.

You will find out this week 😀
Cute list! Be careful with the Kate Spade watch if you choose to get it. While I love my KS swag I have had trouble with their watches. This was quite a few years ago so hopefully they have fixed the design but I had one that broke randomly where the strap and face of the watch attach. A screw was somehow stripped on it. I took mine into a KS store and the sales reps there would not even look at it and gave me some bs story about how they wouldn’t send the watch away with out all this paper work and crazy stuff. I was so upset about it because it was a beautiful piece and well, I don’t have the watch any more.
Anyway, I still find myself looking at their watch designs and think they’re super cute (I’ll probably get another one one day. I think I have convinced myself I just had a faulty product and ran into some unideal reps) but ever since have been a little hesitant. Kate Spade makes nice products though, that is the only negative experience I’ve had through them. I believe their watches are made through Fossil.
You should check out the denim bag though, it is completely you and very sweet. I’ve had a couple KS bags and like the quality- I’d say it is comparable to Michael Kors. KS is really popular here and I’ve had some really nice things by her. Maybe give it a go?
Crap this got long really fast. Ahh! Happy Easter if I don’t get to chat with you beforehand. Cheers!

Oh no! That’s awful! Hopefully it was just a faulty one and not standard among all their watches, perhaps if it was, there would be a lot more complaints online about them. I bought my mum a Marc by Marc Jacobs watch for Christmas and the actual glass face fell out of it! We had to get it exchanged, but I’ve had numerous Marc by Marc Jacobs watches in the past and they’ve all been perfect. Her replacement is also perfect, so the faulty ones do happen in production for sure. I hope it wont happen again to you! That’s such bad customer service on their part! I would have complained to the manager or wrote to the company online and made a big complaint lol.
The denim bag is definitely cute and something I might consider in the future, but at the moment I’m still saving for my Celine so I’m keeping that on the top of my list! Happy Easter to you too!
That is crazy about your mj watch. I have one too and I loooooove it. I couldn’t imagine the glass face falling out, I’d be so mad. They are all made by the same company, same with Michael Kors and I think Marc by Marc Jacobs too.
Saving for a new Celine is so exciting, can’t wait to check it out!

That explains a lot, it’s like sunglasses, they’re pretty much all the same company, ha ha. And yep! I’m excited! Hopefully you will see on the 18th! I’m in London on the 17th so if they have it in stock, it’s coming home with me!
Those shoe are so different and fun. Have a great weekend.

Thank you!
Those sneakers are terrific. The rainbow colour scheme means, of course, that they have the potential to match any outfit. 😀 The watch is really cute too with such an innocent looking alligator! I can certainly imagine you with the denim bag. 😀

Glad you like all the pieces, Steven!

Thank you!
Great roundup Lorna. I don’t think I purchased anything in March now that I think of it. Very proud of myself. In fact, I’ll try to stretch myself and not make any purchases in April either. I can’t wait to see what if is you’ve been saving up for. Whatever it is, I’m sure its awesome!!!!

Oh well done! I did that in January and most of February too! I’ve barely bought anything, so it definitely feels liberating!
The red floral print dress is so cute!
Author
Yeah, I love it too!
You can’t go wrong with any of those leather jackets, they are lovely! And I think that little red dress and a leather jacket would look wonderful too…haha! It can be so hard doing a no-buy! I failed at no buy July a few times so I was surprised I stuck to my 6 months without shopping goals last year. No such goal this year, although I am trying to buy less, I’m also indulging when I see things I really like 🙂
Happy Easter! I hope you are having a lovely Easter weekend 🙂 We are really enjoying the long weekend, it was nice enough to go to the beach earlier.

Oh wow, yeah I remember when you did 6 months of not buying anything, I don’t think I could have stuck to that at all! I like to buy things now and again, save up for them etc, but be cautious of what I’m doing, unlike before.
Oh wow, this is such a beautiful wishlist – so many gorgeous features! The bee embellished ring is adorable and I love the clutch (no.6) as well 🙂 Happy Easter!
