2.5.12

all the raj

the blast from the past 'jelly' shoe has been on my mental to-do list for years now, but for some reason they were never anything that i actively pursued other than the occasional ebay search and eventual disappoint at the range at hand. recently, Ivania over at the Love Aesthetics blog re-sparked my desire and even included a little link to a super duper cheap pair over at Topshop..
they took a little longer to arrive than estimated, but i am now the proud owner of a pair of transparent / glitter jellies, and i couldn't be happier !
hopefully i can find ways to style them in the colder months.. i'm not sure if i can wait until summer to wear them.

some other items on my constant ebay watch list include:
- more / different sized donut hair bun holder / creators (my new favourite 5 minute hairstyle)
- bandeaus that extend down to just above the belly button - for layering (inspired by a friend)..i have a million in different colours with straps that i live in, especially in summer, and i can't believe i had never considered strapless versions
- creepers..they have finally crept into my 'like' radar, though not necessarily of the standard black gothique variety (some people can pull them off - just not so sure if i would feel 100% comfortable in them), perhaps more of just a lace-up or sandle flatform
- velvet..i'm having such a huge velvet moment for some reason
- forehead necklace/s..think Isabel Lucas at the Met Gala - can anyone help me out with what they are actually called ?
- beanies..of the basic black and slouchy Olsen variety
- over the knee + Happy socks
- some pairs of fun + inexpensive sunglasses
- loooooooong cardigans - ie Oscar PR Girl's floor-length number
- circle skirts (i know i know, i should just DIY)
etc etc etc

some more progress on my skirt creation..it's coming along okay but still a little shapeles in the bottom half. the sample is due on Tuesday..
