LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE

For my LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE post for this week I have chosen this Oh So Amazing dress from Jen's Pirate Booty. I am totally in holiday mode at the moment when it comes to my choices for Spring Summer as my husband and I have booked our Summer Holiday. Everything I am buying or lusting after has to fit into my holiday wardrobe somehow whether for beach or bar. I have been in love with this label for a couple of years now ever since I saw of piece of theirs on One Tree Hill. Their bohemian aesthetic and wearable styles fit both my personality and style perfectly. I don't think I have seen a piece yet that I don't adore. Worn by all those Bohemian Style Stars the label has gained quite a few followers and has been spotted on everyone from Alessandra Ambrosio to Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens, who is a big fan.

 

The brand is available from many online outlets but this one in particular I found on The Trend Boutique and happens to be on sale at the moment, for $104.99. Always a plus! I am so completely obsessed with this dusky rose colour, it's probably my favourite colour to wear. I am hoping that this will be one of the pieces squeezed into my suitcase (which no doubt will be overflowing) come holiday time.

LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE

For this week's LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE I am going with the UNBELIEVABLE Dita Legends Sunglasses. Adored by the celebrities the brand uses Solid Gold Frames for some of their designs. Complete luxury. The Selection of Sunglasses that Dita has is beyond AMAZING and yes I would take them all but the Supa Dupa are my pair of choice (for this week anyway). I love my sunglasses and these would make a fabulous addition to my collection. Of all on offer these are one of the less expensive pairs with the cost of some running into the E750 range so at least my dream choices are affordable if I save for a year or so..

I've had my eye on these for quite a few years now and I feel that the obsession is fully forged within my soul as my lust has grown instead of disappearing. I Love, I Want, I Need, I Have To Have!

LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE

For this week's LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE I have gone in a slightly different direction with what I am lusting after. Generally my objects are desire are fashion picks, however, this week I am wanting some concert tickets. For the Jay-Z and Kanye West "Watch the Throne" tour.

Tickets went on sale in Ireland last week and I am hoping that they do not sell out for a couple more weeks so that I can purchase some once my bills are paid. I love Jay-Z and Kanye West separately and together they are seriously amazing.

I have seen Jay-Z in concert twice already and they were some of the best concerts I have been to. Unfortunately though I missed Kanye West the last time he came to Ireland, and if you ask me why, I actually can't remember. It is unacceptable though.

I have the album and I love it so obviously the next step in purchasing the tickets. Fingers Crossed!
Are ya'll into Jay-Z and Kanye?

LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE

For any of you who have read my blog before, on a Friday I like to post my lust worthy item of the week. I call it my LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE. Everybody sees things every day that they like/love but unfortunately sometimes are unable to buy them. Obsessions grow (well for me anyway) and those items lusted after turn into a situation of HAVE TO HAVE! Sometimes we may be able to purchase those items (such as these) as they are within our reach, price wise or they may be within a local store, other times we may have to settle on a highstreet piece inspired by our loved item (see here and here)and for those other unfortuate occassions they may always have to remain a loved and lost item (I literally shed a tear) or something we will continue to Love and Want (like this).
This week I am seriously lusting after these Steve Madden ankle booties available from Endless.

I am so seriously in love with these booties. They are so perfect for the transition into Summer and even through the Summer in Ireland, as we all know Ireland doesn't really do Summer, not in the typical sense anyway. The perfect mix between Moccasin and a bootie. The subtle addition of the Aztec print on the turn down. These will be added to my wardrobe very soon and will be a very much loved pair of shoes, I promise. These will also be appearing in outfit posts over the next couple of months so stay tuned to see if you appreciate how I style them. 

Do you like these booties? What are you Loving this week? Anything you HAVE TO HAVE?

LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE

For this weeks LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE I have chosen the one and only Jeffrey Campbell 'Lita' Booties.

If you haven't heard about these babies, you must have been living under a rock. They are the most Fierce pair of 'affordable' shoes EVER!!

These amazing shoes have been probably the most popular shoes over the last year on the blogosphere and any fashionista worth her weight in salt has a pair. For me since I saw them I have wanted them and the desire has grown so much that now when I'm shopping or Internet browsing I think of outfits in terms of Lita and what will look fabulous with them. Coming in such a huge range of colours, finishes and designs the Lita bootie really can be for everyone.

And the best thing is with the 5" heel and 2" platform they give you the height without killing your feet. I'm so excited to own a pair or 5 of these gorgeous platforms and i literally already have my whole wardrobe based around them. I'm loving the taupe suede and the brown calf however I think my first purchase will most definitely be the original black distressed leather.

This is one dream of mine that WILL come true this year. With my new job and Christmas coming soon there are high chances of being able to rip some wrapping paper off these on Christmas morning. Here's for hoping. You will notice of the next few months if not longer that the Lita Booties will be making appearances on my blog frequently whether in Wishlist Outfits or My Style Posts. I'm very excited for it.
What do you think of the Jeffrey Campbell Lita Booties? Do you already own a pair or more?

LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE

When it comes to accessories I tend to generally lust after shoes mostly, closely followed by fabulous clutches and to die for handbags but recently I found myself lusting after the functional piece that is the Purse/Wallet. This has alot to do with the fact that I was recently ROBBED! I was shopping for a birthday present for our friend's little boy and once I reached the til I realised my purse had been taken, straight out of my bag. Anyway it was horrible but I guess I'm over it now as I have the excitement of being able to invest in something new and fabulous. So for this week's LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE I am focusing all my attention on the Oh So Fabulous Louis Vuitton Alma Zippy Wallet.

From the Gorgeous Alma Vernis Collection, this wallet is everything you should need. Beautiful, functional and if you're like me and hold you life in your wallet, it has loads of space. I really love it in this shade too, Rouge Fauviste. So pretty, on trend and completely classic. Something that's not going to go out of style next season but can be handed down to my daughter when she gets older.

You know, why not go for the matching bag too. This is my fantasy, right?! I already have a Speedy 30 in the gorgeous Monogrammed Canvas and I love it with all of my heart. I have been wanting to add to my collection for some time and the Vernis Alma has been the style and design I keep going back to. I have my heart set on it and I will have it....One Day.

Has anyone else been lusting after the Vernis Alma?

LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE

For this weeks LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE I am keeping slightly with my 70's trend and boho chic style lusting after a Winter Kate dress.

 I love this dress. Full Stop. Whats not to love, the cut, the colours, the boho 70's vibe and the floral print. *Heavy Sigh*. Oh how I do love thee Winter Kate Passenger Dress.

 I could see myself wearing this dress for the rest of my life, travelling the world with me (this is the dream anyway), on beaches near and far. Dressed up for a night out with cocktails or dressed down for a nice day in Ireland. I have to find a way for this piece to join my beloved closet....
Available currently on Asos for E352.55. Yeah I know that's alot of money.... Well if I win the lottery or scratch the right scratchcard, this beauty will be mine....

I will be getting back to my 70's trend of the week soon. Had a few too many distractions this week so I didn't get as much done as hoped. Stay tuned though for 70's Highstreet Style, Accessorize 70's, Steal Her Style and ONE X 5.

LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE Isabel Marant Dicker Boots

 I am totally in love. These boots! OMG! Literally take my breath away. The Iconic, cult status Isabel Marant Dicker Boots need to come home with me and live with me forever.

They are the perfect ankle boot. Can be worn with any outfit. Can be dressed up or dressed down. And they have a small enough heel so I won't break my ankle wearing them while running around after a 2/12 year old. Oh how I need these so badly. Worn by some of the top Style Stars of the moment and the obsession has no trickled down to the blogosphere with so many Uber stylish bloggers out there lucky enough to get their tootsies into a pair, including one of my favourite bloggers, Bohemian chic, who is wearing them in this post.

Kate Bosworth is a Style Star who seems as obsessed with this boots as I am. Her Dickers have been paired with almost every outfit she has sported recently from day time chic to night time dresses and even a red carpet or 2.

Unfortunately at $614 from Net-a-porter being one issue they are not only above my price range and the other issue being they are sold out being slightly gets in the way but that won't stop me dreaming about the beauties..or searching for a replicate pair to bring home and love forever.

Is anyone else in Love? What are your opinions on these foot candy booties? Who else is a fan of Isabel Marant?

LOVE, WANT, NEED,HAVE TO HAVE Helmut Lang Sweater

This is a new feature for me where every week I will pick one of my favourite designer pieces that I am seriously lusting after. It's as I like to say A LOVE, WANT, NEED, HAVE TO HAVE situation. I may have noticed the piece while researching for the blog, spotted it on a celeb or saw it staring back at me during some serious window shopping. This weeks pick The Helmut Lang Silk Sweaters, Spotted Recently on Khloe Kardashian, Rosie Huntington Whiteley, Kristen Cavallari and Hilary Duff.

I love my Comfortable, Urban Style and with Ireland's Summers not actually typical summer this would be the perfect cover up for those days where you just don't know what to wear. A problem often associated with summers in Ireland. Do you dress for the almost certain rain shower or for the brief moments of the beautiful sun splitting the stones, even if it is only for 3.5 minutes every hour. I love it and want it and need it and so have to have it

 but....
i probably will have to find a copy somewhere as Revolve Clothing prices it slightly out of my price range at E219.01. What do you think of this Sweater, lust after? Does anyone already have it?
