One of the more exciting high street designer collaborations, Mary Katrantzou x Topshop, is due to drop later this week and I am already anticipating the dark shadow which will be cast over my credit card balance. Vogue UK have previewed the capsule collection here, and while the tees and leggings are a more balanced pricepoint, it is the jersey and silk dresses which have got me captivated.

Party and Bullshit

Topshop Pastel Wedge in Coral

Updated shopping desires. Pretty keen for AW12 Deadly Ponies collection to drop in stores - the colors this season are all stunning, although the above Magenta is my pick.

Sass and Bide Humble Beginnings Pant
Barnett 'Tombraider' neckpiece

Topshop Podium Platform Heels in Green

Lusting after green at the moment. Seeing it in my wardrobe paired back with white, fresh and crisp for the warmer months ahead.

Slip Slidin Away

I'm so obsessed with burgundy leather at the moment; just ordered a pair of suede wedges in this beautiful shade and I think these Topshop boots will be next.

I'm getting really excited about the summer collections about to hit stores, and particularly loving bright shoes to go with clashing prints for the coming warmer months.

Bow and Arrow

It's my birthday this week - I really hope someone who loves me has also discovered these limited edition Michael van der Ham x Topshop velvet wedges!

Topshop, love.

Ultra Violet

I can't believe Topshop released Perrin in silver, literally days aftter my pair in nude leather arrived. The silver would be so so amazing with colorful printed socks for winter. I'm seriously considering another order. These were a little higher than I expected when they arrived, but as is the case with every pair of Topshop shoes I own, incredibly well made and comfortable despite the height.

MINE :)

Shoe Wants

Jeffrey Campbell's Lita, in pink fur. I know the pink is quite kitsch but it is exactly what I need in my wardrobe, something bright and fresh. I've got so many pairs of ankle boots but they're mostly black and I think the pink fur would be really fun! I am crazy about this shoe but nervous about ordering online as I've never worn Jeffrey Campbell shoes before and I have quite particular feet. I think I just need to bite the bullet soon and order these though so I can stop thinking about them!

Joe's Jeans Platform Sandals and Giuseppe Zanotti leopard wedge, from Shopbop.

Topshop Premium velvet disco heels - these are a must have for me. I've got many a pair of Topshop platforms and have found that they are a really good fit and shape for me.
I know that I've put two pairs of Lita's on here but this burgundy paisley pair is beautiful! Would be so cool styled with some 70's style denim and cream cotton blouse..

I'm really excited by both Rumi and Pamela's print chiffon maxi dresses - I have a very similar silk leopard print maxi but the floatiness of the chiffon makes Rumi's that bit more desirable. Also, she is always completely on my wave length with shoes - we have many of the same pairs - but these Topshop ones look so much better on the foot than they do online. I'm seriously considering placing another order soon. As for Pamela Love, the shots of her apartment by Todd Selby are beautiful and inspiring, and I love her paisley print maxi. I wonder if it's vintage?

Tightrope Walking

My two most recent purchases - Topshop stirrup ankle boots and Deadly Ponies 'Mr Penny Pouch' bag. The bag is coming in the post from New Zealand and I am eagerly anticipating its' arrival!

Wild, Wild Party

Today in sunny Brisbane I wore the following to work:

Boxvintage dress and cardigan, Topshop tasselled wedges and vintage blue crocodile doctor's bag. This bag was a present from my boyfriend and one of my most treasured possessions - I love the color and size.

Topshop tasselled platforms. I received these in the mail a few weeks ago and was pleased to discover they are super comfortable to wear despite the height.. The shape is reminiscent of an old pair of beloved Nine West leather platform sandals which have long since died - I am pretty certain I'll get a lot of wear out of these this summer.
