Souhaiter la liste (Wish List)

I LOVE clothing! I LOVE shoes! I LOVE bags! Who doesn't??

Being a college student, when I shop, I don't spend a lot. Or as of late, I don't shop at all (GASP!). Since I'm moving to Dallas, I'm trying to be as conscious about money as I can be! I need to be prepared for expenses come June. But...I can't help myself! I LOVE to browse! I love to look at pretty things online. It's like my own shopping mall at the tips of my fingers.

Online browsing + gorgeous things = WISH LIST!

So, without further ado, here's my TOP 5 WISH LIST:

5. Plum Houndstooth Sleeveless Dress by Target
I absolutely LOVE the clean lines of this dress! It's both professional and playful! The shape of the dress is flawless and flatters every size.


4. Avington Slipper Chair
I really like the design of this chair! It's modern, yet classic. It would be uber cute in my Dallas apartment! I would love to decorate in brown and blue/green.


3. Betsey Johnson Kareas Ankle Boot
I really like the peeptoe/boot combination. A lot of designers are using the combo, and I actually really like the look. Betsey's shoe is oh-so-cute in a grayish color, so it would go with a lot! It also comes in black, for those traditionalists.



2. Tiffany Elsa Peretti Open Heart Pendant
Who doesn't want a little turqouise box?? I know I do! And I want this item to come in it! What I love so much about this pendant is that it contains an aquamarine stone, my birthstone! When I saw it on the Tiffany website, I just know it wants me to buy it someday.


1. And finally...my number one wish!
Prada Forest Calfskin studded medium tote
I am IN LOVE with this bag!!! I will probably never be able to afford it, but I love the detailing on this gorgeous handbag. The studs are perfect for the season and hand-applied. SO beautiful!



That's all for now. If I had room, I could post about 20 different pictures of things I want. I did get one thing that's been on my wish list for a long time, though. My sister recently got me a Coach wristlet! It's from the new collection; black C's with a little silver patch displaying the Coach name. I've gotten a ton of compliments on it, so thanks Brooke!

My love for labels will never die, despite not ever being able to afford a $2,000 handbag or $600 pair of shoes. For now, I will keep on wishing :)

Au Revoir,

xoxo Betsey

I LOVE that chair! I've walked by it many times at our Target, but don't really have a place for it in the house. Wait! I might! I think it might match our comforter in the master bed. Oooooh, another thing to save up for!!!!

Other than that, I don't really get the style thing. I know I know, I'm boring and need someone to tell me what to wear. Maybe I should take you shopping with me sometime!

Meredith-don't take Betsey shopping with you. Not because she's a bad shopping partner, but because she's such a good shopping partner, you'll want to shop all the time. It's unfortunate.

I'm glad you like your Wristlet!

Betsey! I'm totally going to be getting that chair! Actually, I'm getting two, in the dining chair style. I'm totally going to decorate my office/sitting room, and I love love love that chair.

And Brooke, that's why I don't shop with some of my friends! I end up spending WAY too much!
