Fashion wants!

I love the socks.

I loooove the socks! I think my ankles are too gross for them, though

I love the socks.

I just generally hate wearing socks and wearing shoes as well, I like being barefoot

Socks and sandals remind me of my Dad, and well, he isn't exactly fashionable.

There's a newish Forever New that's opened up in the city and it's huuuuuge and I went in there briefly for the first time the other day. I wish I had lots of money so I could buy everything in that store!

I want a nice pair of NON SKINNY jeans. Absolutely frickin impossible.

I want a nice pair of skinny high waisted jeans! That's just as hard (when you have no money)

Boots, I want BOOTS! There are so many options but none that I like! Made the mistake of going into a couple of proper shoe stores last week as opposed to discount stores like Number One Shoes and of course promptly fell in love with five pairs of boots, all priced over $200. For petes sake! Would Number One start copying GOOD boot designs soon, please? For the sake of my bank account

How much do you want to spend? Mavi have some really nice non-skinny jeans, they're super comfy and great cuts but quite expensive (in the $200 range). Or Jeanswest and Just Jeans have some good non-skinny options too!

Klerr, buy Grab Lizards, they are the BEST high-waisted skinnies. I bought a pair a little while ago (think I posted in the "last item you bought" thread?) and they are amazing. $110 which is a little exxy, especially as a student, but definitely worth it. Really comfortable, great cut, very flattering and good quality. Couldn't recommend them more, I love love love them!

I'll be willing to spend that, but I want to loose a little bit of thight/bum/hip flab first.
Are they warm?

Yup!

Mavi! How could I forget them! I had this awesome pair a while ago but my sister ripped them somehow. I looked in those jeans shops and the straight and bootcuts just make me look like a farmer hahaha

I want a beret to keep my head warm at the footy games in Sydney, but I don't imagine they'll suit me very well. I also want a new pair of black boots, some more scarves and pretty much everything in Forever New (although I already said this up the top of the page lol).

I think a beret would look nice on you!

Aw I dunno, hats never look right on me!

I also want these two tops:

http://www.valleygirl.com.au/p-4219-short-sleeve-top.aspx

Big black jacket
Brown lace-up ankle boots.
Handbag to replace my old tattered one I keep carrying around

I want a scarf that I saw at Valleygirl that is dark blue and silver and shiny, and another scarf that I saw at Myer that is white with black polka dots. I would also like the money to be able to afford them...

I found this dress on sale at www.wildpair.co.nz, down from $80 to $40. I want it SO BAD but they only have sizes 12 and 14 left. I hate my life! Teresa said I should just order a size 12 and get it altered, but I'm always nervous about stuff like that...

I have a dress like that! Get it and alter it!

I want a couple of dresses for going out that actually have sleeves, I'm starting to realise that it's actually pretty cold at 3am on a winter's morning haha. I bought one short-sleeved dress the other day but I want more...but I swear I went to all the usual shops in the city and couldn't find anything!

Same here, I have been looking for a nice long sleeved dress for ages and I can't find any I like for a reasonable price. It's not because it's cold, it's because I hate my disgusting arms.

Almost all of the long sleeve dresses are body cons... which there is no way I could pull off

Yeah same here, except the retro ones which are always too long for me and I suck at sewing.

I could probably get away with a body con but I hate wearing tight dresses, it feels so ... show-offy? I'd feel so self-conscious, for some reason. I like loose dresses belted at the waist, something that shows "hey, she has a figure" without being like, "YO, CHECK OUT MY FIG-URRRE!"
