Topshop Wishlist

I have a job, and work very hard for my money. My parents don't hand me money to pay for clothes and although i do earn money, i cannot afford nearly as much as what i'd like, especially from Topshop. Here are the 7 things i would buy from Topshop, if i had the money! All are things i think would be perfect for this Autumn and Winter and incorporate some of AW12's biggest trends.



 1. I love these wedges because of their 'retro' look. The black keeps it simple whilst the deep wood coloured wedge adds a warmer autumn tone, i think they're on the pricey side but so classic that you'd get a lot of wear out of them. They're the type of shoe you can pull out every september to use, as they're timeless. I've been looking at these for a while, think i need to pluck up the courage and just buy them soon!

2. At £26, this is an affordable dress, but i saw it on the website and thought i would put it in this post! Deffinately getting this next time I'm in Topshop, its so simple, perfect for school and something i can style differently time after time. They also do this in other colours (a maroon i think, but not 100%) but i have a strange obsession with grey that i wouldnt buy it in any other shade!

3. These are bang on the AW12 Baroque trend (I'm no expert so please dont quote me) and i love how the colours in the pattern are deep but bright, so differ from the colours you would wear in summer yet still add a splash of colour to an outfit. I think these are a staple piece that you could really wear with any top and tights to dress up or down. Yes, the floral tapestry pattern could be a bit 'grannyish' but i personally like it.

4. I have a real pet-hate for small bags. Tiny bags just irritate me! Much prefer a larger bag, but cannot decide if this is too big. The 'holdall' implies very large but its hard to tell from just looking online. Something i need to look at next time I'm in the store. I like the classic 'military' design of the bag and the Khaki shade of green isn't too much. Something you could get a lot of use out of.

5.Glitter and sparkles really isn't my thing. But i absolutely love the geo-style pattern of this and have been admiring velvet dresses for a while now. I also think the silver glitter goes really well with the velvet and is great for november/december when it is acceptable to wear sparkley clothing. Debating whether to get this, mainly because i would have nowhere to wear it to as it is too dressy to wear to just a party and I'm not one to buy something i might not wear. Might show this to my mum if she drags me along to some boring old peoples event..

6. I am a big admirer of chelsea boots but i refuse to buy any suede/fake leather ones. Its annoying as i cant find any between the £15 cheap looking ones and the £60 beautiful ones which are way out of my price range. However, if money was no object, i would buy these completely classic pair. No suede, no sparkles, no bright colours, just classic.

7. Topshop knitwear always impresses me, although its outrageously priced, the quality is 10x better than Primark. If i was to get a jumper/cardigan from Topshop, it would certainly be this one. The deep red/purple colour is perfect for Autumn/Winter and i love the embellishment which adds something to a plain jumper, without making it 'too jazzy' to wear casually in the daytime. However, i don't quite think its worth the £45.
