Currently Craving Wish List: June & July 2018

Allsaints Coral Red Balfern Jacket  |  Allsaints Blaze Top

Due to having a super busy June, I’m sure some of you noticed that I missed my Currently Craving Wish List for that month. Rather than completely disregarding it, I’m doing July’s a lot earlier in the month and combining it with June so you have an even bigger roundup! I’ve included 14 items here in total and every single one of them I absolutely love! There’s so many options here from the sale as well, so I recommend acting fast if you want any! The Nordstrom Anniversary sale is happening in a few days too, and I’ve included two items from them, so be sure to check back here when the sale happens! It would be a huge benefit to me and my blog if you purchase through my links to help keep it running as most of my links in this post are affiliated. Anyway, lets get to it!

I don’t think the two Allsaints items above need explaining as you all now I love Allsaints! The coral leather jacket was one I tried on in the store a few months back and thought was really pretty, now it’s got 40% off! Then the tank top is so floaty and pretty, I’m eyeing it to buy for sure! Especially since it only costs £46 now in the sale! The sales this season have been incredible!

Michael Kors Slim Runway Rainbow Crystal Watch

When I was in Wales, I spotted this gorgeous Michael Kors watch with rainbow crystals in the boutique and couldn’t take my eyes off of it! It was truly gorgeous! I don’t think it needs much selling from myself, but when the lights shine on it from a distance, it’s mesmerizing! I’m hoping to be able to get it very soon! It is my birthday coming up in 26 days after all… That’s what I am telling myself anyway, ha ha.

Madewell Sherbert Stripe Button Back Tie Tee

This tee is from Madewell, but on Nordstrom, so keep an eye on the sale very soon! I think it’s super cute and perfect for the summer right now. How sweet would it look with white skinny jeans?!

Mulberry Ocean Green Small Lily Bag

As I am having a Mulberry bags phase at the moment (remember my classic Mulberry Bags you need post?) I decided to include the Lily in the Ocean Green. I don’t own a bag in this shade at all and I’m growing more fond of it by the day. It’s lovely! I do own two in Oak and Oxblood, but this one keeps calling my name each time I see it.

Steve Madden Sayler Slide Sandals

If anyone is a fan of the Hermes Oran sandals (I adore them – but can’t afford them) then I think these Steve Madden sandals are the perfect alternative! They only cost £48, which compared to the £485 price tag of the Hermes ones, is a bargain! Plus, I love the bright yellow!

Mádara Anti-Pollution CC Cream 

I’ve heard a few good things about this CC cream as it’s got an SPF in it, and offers some coverage. I never know if CC creams are going to be any good as I’ve not had much luck with them in the past, but this one looks great and a lot of people rate it. I’d love to know if you’ve tried it actually, before I purchase!

Dr. Hauschka Hydrating Hand Cream

Right now I have the driest hands, which you wouldn’t think was possible, but during the heatwave we are having (which will not go away!) I keep having to cool down with water and it’s making my hands a mess if they’re damp for too long as they keep drying out, so again, I’ve heard great things about this hand cream and am thinking about giving it a try!

Coast Harrison Bardot Floral Top

This top… where do I even start? I ordered it last week to try on a whim and it looks SO pretty! The bardot shoulder detail and the yellow, green, orange floral print is something that I rarely ever wear. The colour combination alone is new to my wardrobe and Adam said it looks really nice. It helps that I got 20% off of it, so if you want 20% off, let me know and I can give you the code! I took a size 10 and it seems quite fitted, but roomy enough in the chest department for me. (Click here to see a preview of me wearing it from Instagram).

Zac Posen Earthette Accordian Bag

I have a Zac Posen Earthette bag in black with stars, but the moment I saw this a few days ago, again I fell in love. I can’t help it at the moment as there’s so many pretty things! I love bright colours, floral prints, classic bags… and this one combines it all. Isn’t it stunning?

Stutterheim Mosebacke Raincoat In Light Sand

It’s no secret I love my Stutterheim Mosebacke Raincoat in Burgundy as you’ve seen it before (here and here), but the Light Sand colour has been on my wish list for a long time. It’s so classic and neutral that it would go with just about anything, and that’s something I am lacking in the raincoat department as all of mine are coloured (only have one clear one). I was hoping it would go in the sale as it’s a bit expensive at the moment, but we will see. I can dream!

Valentino x My Theresa Exclusive Candystud Bag

I obviously can’t afford this bag as it’s super expensive, but it recently came out as a My Theresa x Valentino collaboration, so it’s an exclusive, and it’s so pretty! It reminds me of the Neapolitan ice cream that you used to get when you were a child. Very chic and fun!

Alexander Wang Tina Booties

You know I am all for a pair of sexy boots! These Alexander Wang ankle boots are so unique! A pointed black toe with a stiletto heel is a favourite of mine, but I like the addition of the silver balls around the opening as it’s really different. I can only imagine how I could style these!

Viseart Eyeshadow Palette In Editorial Brights

And finally, an eyeshadow palette. I’m very into the pretty rainbow ombre eyes that I am seeing on social media lately, but I rarely experiment myself with bright colours. I often stick to purples, taupes or greys, so I’m thinking something like this will be fun to play around with. Have any of you got a palette filled with such bright shades?

– So, these are all of the items on my Currently Craving Wish List. Let me know what you love the most and I would like to know what you’re lusting after too! Lorna xx.

    While I’m not a green person, I do really like the colour of that Lily bag, I can see why it keeps catching your eye! 🙂

    Hope you had a wonderful weekend and your week is off to a good start! 🙂

    Neapolitan ice cream from childhood? Well some of us still buy it as adults, I have to confess. 😉

    This might surprise you a bit but I think the watch is gorgeous! Usually I go on about how I prefer the look of simple looking watches. This watch really should be everything that I dislike in a watch but I can’t help thinking it’s a really terrific item and if you do treat yourself to it, or receive it for your birthday, then I think that’d be a great addition to your collection 🙂 I’d be curious as to what you might wear with it but I guess that pretty much anything would work ok. 🙂

      What? You’re just a big kid! Ha ha 😀

      I didn’t have you down for liking the watch at all, I thought it was too showy for you actually, so that has surprised me. I actually may have already bought it and am expecting it soon! I can’t wait 😀 I thought you would like the floral top though since it has green. I guess I was wrong there too! Full of surprised today, Steven! 😀

      • July 12, 2018 / 10:33 pm

        Oh, I like the floral top too. 🙂 No question about that… I just got totally distracted by the watch. LOL 😀 Yes, aside from the green on the top I also like the yellow too because there’s so little yellow about in clothing and it’s nice to see some. I can’t think of more than a couple of things in my wardrobe (aside from socks) that have any yellow in them at all. One long sleeved shirt is black & yellow and I have one yellow t-shirt. I think that’s all.

          That’s not much yellow at all! Luckily my next two outfits contain yellow and green, so I’m sure you will like them!

          • July 26, 2018 / 11:46 pm

            Yes… plus I am never quite sure what to wear with yellow when I do wear it. 🙂

            I have a lot of catching up to do with your posts, Lorna. I’ve not been feeling too great lately but I’ll get caught up properly shortly. Yes, at first glance the latest outfits look terrific. 😀 I’ll read and comment on them properly though, of course. 😀

                Thanks Lorna. 🙂 I had a bout of depression made worse by lack of sleep due to the heat. I still don’t feel wonderful but certainly at least more sociable than I did a week or so ago. 🙂
