Currently Craving Wish List: August 2018

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11

Can you believe another month has gone by? We’re entering September and that’s one of my favourite months! I’m excited that the weather has started to cool down and I’m looking forward to wearing more of my boots and jeans now that it’s not roasting hot, but before we head off into Autumn, I thought I would share my wish list for August as there’s so many things I want at the moment! Usually I have items in the mail by this point, but after my Bicester Village splurge, I haven’t bought anything and it has to stay that way for a while, ha ha.

Since I bought and did my Stuart Weitzman Tieland Boots review, I have been obsessing over their boots! The burgundy pair is a must have for me so I am patiently waiting for a sale! I’ve always loved MCM and when I saw the photo of the cream backpack with the brown bear (bottom of this post), it made me want both the bag and charm as it’s so cute! I’m always in need of new lipsticks and Bare Minerals make amazing ones. I actually do own those FRAME Le Skinny Jeans pictured at number four and they are truly amazing! I cant wait to wear them this weekend, I hugely recommend them!

Both of those Swarovski Remix bracelets are a weakness of mine right now too, I saw them in the boutique last weekend and fell in love! Then how amazing are those burgundy leather pants? The price tag is extreme, but I am hoping to hold out for a sale! A rainbow candle and a grey star rug would really brighten up my room too as I’m thinking of doing some redecorating soon, and then finally, that rainbow Burberry scarf! Ever since I fell in love with the cape version from the runway show back in March, I was hoping they would bring out a scarf, and they have. I love it! Again, it’s a bit pricey at the moment, but who knows in the near future? So gorgeous!

Also not pictured in the collage above is something I have been thinking about regarding my health and wellness. I am now attending physiotherapy for my joints, but toning up is extremely hard these days due to the EDS and my stomach isn’t looking as good as it once was. I really want to be able to look and feel my best lately, so hopefully I can make some improvements. I’m sure a little spa day or some R&R somewhere wouldn’t hurt!

As I mentioned some revamping of my room, I have always wanted one of these beds! I was always fascinated by the way the mattress lifts up and you can find all your stored stuff in there, which would be absolutely ideal right now with the transitional season! Imagine being able to put away all my summer clothing inside the bed and then swap it out for my autumn wardrobe! I saw this one on Happy Beds and it’s actually nowhere near as expensive as I thought, so this is definitely on my wish list! I usually keep things in tubs underneath, but it gets so dusty and is really hard to fetch everything from the back, so this looks ideal to me! Have any of you got a bed like this?

So, that’s my Autumn Currently Craving Wish List! What do you like the most?

    Wow, those boots are stunning!! And that bed is so cool! But wouldn’t it be kind of heavy to lift up?

      I believe it’s on spring loaded hinges so it lifts with ease!

    I love the idea of the under bed storage! I currently have stuff all piled in boxes under my bed at the moment too, haha! That solution looks a lot neater! 🙂

    Unlike you I ended up buying a lot this month! Not a lot of money, but I got a lot of pieces, haha! I was a bit surprised when I did my wrap up post of it all. I’m going to try buy less in September!

    I hope that you are having a lovely weekend 🙂 We went to a strawberry farm yesterday with the boys which was so fun 🙂

    Those burgundy knee high boots look fantastic! I love the color and the lower heel. Since I live in flats, it’s a must for me to find shoes that are not only beautiful but comfortable and these fit the bill. Aside from #1, I love that bear key chain and the MCM backpack! How cute is that and I must say the color is perfect. I hope your weekend is going well so far! Happy Sunday!

      Yes! I love them both too, a little out of my price range right now, but I adore them!

    Funnily enough I think I’ll need a new bed soon as my next big purchase. I’ll not be getting anything as fancy as that one but I agree that it’s certainly a really nice item. 🙂 I love the idea of hidden extra storage space… space really is at a premium now in my home. 😀

    Of the other items I like the scarf the best. Well, you know how I feel about bright colours. 😀

      I am the same, space isn’t something I have a lot of so it would be good to have more storage like that. I’ve even considered raising my bed up much higher in order to have more space underneath, ha ha 😀

      I do too, as long as it’s not too hot!

    I need that bed and that bear chain right now Lorna! I saw that bed on the HGTV Channel the other night in a Tiny House, and it’s a brilliant idea to save space, and to be on trend. The bear would just look so cool on one of my bags. Happy Tuesday and Hugs…RO

      Yes! It does look like an amazing way to save space! Everyone is loving the bed!

    That bed is awesome! My bed has four drawers (two on either side), but the entire mattress lifting up would be so dope for storage!
