A shirt dress is definitely a wardrobe staple. I bought one from New Look years ago and I still have it in my wardrobe... somewhere! These are some of my favourites on the high street, most of them are from New Look as I found they had the best selection and they won't break the bank. I would style one of these bad boys with either leggings (depending on the length as I am quite tall) or tights, paired with some flat shoes or boots and a leather jacket, then you are good to go! I like it how they cinch you in at the waist giving you some body definition, whilst wearing something comfortable. They are perfect for both daytime and evening wear and I will be definatly picking one up on my next shopping trip!

Autumn Fashion Wish List
I think I got a bit carried away... One day I will own all of this (can only dream)
1. Camel Coat - I REALLY need one in my life. It would go with everything and it's a timeless piece. I spotted this beauty in Marks & Spenser's - not somewhere I would normally shop but this really caught my eye. For £120 I think it's worth every penny!
2. Daniel Wellington Classic Sheffield Watch - I'm not a big watch wearer but I've had my eye on this for ages. A guy I work with has one and its so beautiful. I hate watches that tick but apparently it doesn't so that's a bonus.
3. Tiffany Necklace - So this is a naughty mention. I don't even know why I do this to myself... I have this whole idea of going to New York for my 21st and buying a Tiffany Necklace...
A. I don't have enough money to go to New York.
B. I don't have a boyfriend to take me to New York.
C. If I bought one for myself it wouldn't be the same.
D. If I bought myself this necklace, I will be broke and my New York dreams will be over.
So yeah... think I've had a melt down in a paragraph haha
4. H&M Pink Jumper - I just love the colour. It will cheer me up in the dark, cold winter months.. I just know it. £30 is reasonable for a jumper I suppose.
5.H&M Grey Tee - It's funky - I like it. Also It won't break the bank too, for £8.
6. H&M striped Tee - You can't have enough striped t-shirts - they are so easy to wear!

Fashion Wishlist!
1. I love these trousers, they are from New Look and only £25. I don't really like statement, bold printed trousers but these are kind of wearable for me as they aren't too in your face. However they are only an online exclusive, do I buy them or not... That is the question!
2. Again another pair of Trousers from New Look, as they are monochrome I would probably wear them a lot more! I think these would be quite versatile, I could dress them down for work and during the day and add a pair of heels for night time!
3. I have heard that red is going to be in for Autumn/ winter 2014, so I might have to purchase this blazer. For £25 I think this would be a wardrobe essential, as it would add a pop of colour to my outfit. I would pair this jacket with a white boyfriend shirt, a pair of black jeans or the monochrome trousers shown above.
4. A couple of weeks ago I tried this 'leather' jacket on in Zara I love it! However for £60 its probably worth having a look around, before taking the plunge.

Zara Wishlist!
1. £40 - Zara mini city bag - Love this Red/ Orange Mini city bag, it's a perfect way to add a little pop of colour to your outfit!
2. £30- Nautical Ballerina - I love the see through heel on these shoes and I haven't got any striped shoes in my wardrobe.
3. £60 - Leather Fringed sandals - £60 is a little steep for a pair of sandals but I guess you get what you pay for. I would rather an expensive good quality pair of shoes over a cheap pair from Primark. I love the cute fringing detail as well.
4. £80 - Structured Coat - I love this white structured coat. I love how it's simple yet a statement piece. For £80 it's quite expensive, however I think it's a wardrobe essential and I know I will get a lot of wear out of it.
5. £30- Checked Shirt - Checks/gingham are on trend at the moment. This shirt will look effortlessly chic paired with a pair of ripped jeans, a leather jacket and biker boots.
What's on your Zara wishlist?

Cambridge Satchel
This summer I went down London for a few days with my family and managed to get my hands on one of these beauties. I was like a kid going into a candy store, when I went to the Cambridge Satchel store. Rows and rows of pretty coloured bags, all come in different sizes and styles... IT WAS A REALLY HARD DECISION TO MAKE!! I finally decided to go with the 13 inch Classic red satchel, which is the perfect size for me. On the website it describes the 13 inch bag is most suitable for an 'every day bag for the office and leisure.' Which I agree with as I can fit all of my every day essentials in and if I needed to my I Pad fits in too. My satchel costed £108 which is quite expensive, however it is real leather and it will last me a lifetime. If you wanted you could have your initials embossed on the satchel for an extra charge, so I did. I think it adds just a personal touch to your bag and it makes my bag unique to any other satchel on the market.
Have you got a Cambridge Satchel?
