THE BAG LADY

I am beyond in love with Zara's SS12 bag collection. They're all so perfect and I want each and every one of them (but if I had to choose, I'd take the city bag in the middle). I stood in the shop and stared until my mother dragged me away.

One Wish

And the tragedy is that I'm not allowed to buy anything. I was apparently "out of control" with my spending last term (which I think was mainly on fancy dress) so my mother has decided to take control of my finances for the next 12 weeks. Weep. However these are the things that I want to buy with my loan, and if I had control of it, would have got me in debt already.

1. MOTO High Waist Hotpant - £28 from Topshop
2. Black Buckle Backpack - £30 from Topshop
3. Le Vernis in May - £17.50 from Chanel
4. MASON Leather Strap Flat Shoes - £85 from Asos.com
5. Knitted Circle Foil Jumper - £38 from Topshop
6. Leather Jacket - £642 from Marni (yes, this one is wayyyy out of the price range)
7. MOTO Stripe High Waist Hotpant - £32 from Topshop
8. Pyramid Metal Tip Clutch - £15 from Asos.com

Also all of the new skirts on net-a-porter.com this morning were 'ahhh' inducing, especially two D&G tulle concoctions which I cannot imagine how to style, but they would still make me feel like a princess.

Red Carpet Treatment

Minka Kelly in Oscar De La Renta, Sophia Bush in Chris Benz and Rachel Bilson in Chanel at the The Art of Elysium’s 5th Annual black Tie “Heaven” Charity Gala
I also loved the Jason Wu outfit that Emma Stone wore to the People's Choice Awards but she's so bad at posing for photographs that I couldn't bear to look through them all.
