Student Loan Lust List

It's almost time to go back to University, which means that student loans are due (in 8 days to be precise).  This year I wont have a Macbook Pro to pay off which means there will be a lot more money for me to spend on clothes, make up and of course books... With the new season stock hitting stores everywhere, I've been left lusting after a lot of stuff, here's just a sample of what I want.  

£36.00; Topshop
I want two pairs of boots for this season, a flat pair like above and one with a heel.  Unfortunately, the ones with a heel aren't on the Topshop site.  

£99.95; Barbour
I don't know why but I've been loving the Barbour coats lately.  I need a new coat and think this would be great for the autumn, although I'd probably need something warmer for winter...

£25; Asos.com
I love the aztec prints lately and think this scarf should be in my winter wardrobe.  

£31.00; Chanel
This has been such a talked about foundation that I'm really excited to try it.  It's a little pricey, but the reviews have been fantastic.  

£38.00; 18ANDEAST
My lust list wouldn't be complete without this brand.  I've recently purchased this shirt in Berry (look out for my haul post tomorrow!) and I love it so much I want this one with 18ANDEAST's bespoke print.  

£12.00; Amazon
If you follow me on Twitter then you'll know I've recently died my hair a rather bright shade of blonde (see picture below).  My stylist recommended Moroccan Oil to keep my hair soft and glossy.  I currently use the V05 dupe, but wonder if the real stuff lives up to the hype? 



What will you be spending your student loan on besides university books?

Lust List: New In Store

I'm pretty sure I never stop online shopping.  Even if i'm only browsing I always end up adding copious amounts of clothing to my mental wish list.  I'm currently lusting after a new season wardrobe.  I want boots, cable knits, Barbour inspired coats and stars (lots of them).  This summer has been what can only be described as a wash out and ever since the weather has become increasingly confusing, it's only made me want A/W more. 

When online shopping the first part of any site I consult is the 'New In' section.  Topshop has to be my favourite for this as they update it pretty much everyday.  Enough of the babbling, here's my new season Lust List, compiled from what's new in store.  

Minkpink Poncho via ASOS.com
Poncho's are back in force for this season and I'm a sucker for an aztec-esc print.  

Shirt; Topshop
I love a shirt, they look great with anything - paired with jeans and heeled brogues, tucked into a denim skater skirt or just with leggings (as long as they cover your bums girls).

Tights; H&M
There's nothing nicer on a bitter day than wrapping up warm, but sometimes I feel a little mannish in all my layers.  These tights are thick and therefore warm and they are also a popular colour for this season.  

Boots; Miss Selfridge 
Like flip flops are a summer staple, boots are an autumn/winter staple.  I want both flat and heeled boots, so these would be a good start. 

Cape; Dorothy Perkins
I want a cape after getting superhero envy last year.  Need I say anymore?

What's on your new season lust list?
