Currently Craving Wish List: May 2018

Senreve Mini Maestra Bag in Merlot

Since they shut down Polyvore last month, I’m setting out my wish lists in a different way now. I know I have Photoshop, but it takes 4 times as long as what Polyvore did, so I’m doing it this way. I’ve chosen a mixture of items I’ve recently purchased and items that I would love to own, so May’s Currently Craving roundup is filled with things I recommend! I’m going to be speaking about each item underneath the corresponding photo, and of course you can purchase it via the link directly under the image as well. I hope you enjoy it!

Above is the Senreve Mini Maestra Bag in Merlot. I’ve liked these bags for quite a while and enjoy the shape of them, but I think the burgundy tone is gorgeous! It even comes in a coral (see here) which I absolutely love, but I think burgundy would be the best suited to me.

Topshop Dot Wrap Red Top

I don’t own this top, but when I saw it earlier on the Topshop website, I thought it was gorgeous! How cute would it look with high rise black skinny jeans?!

Oasis Cotton White Shirt

I purchased this shirt a couple of weeks ago and it’s one of the best white cotton shirts! It’s comfortable, breezy and so easy wearing that I’ve been living in it all holiday! It works just as well over things as it does as a single piece. I took size 10 in it so it was oversized and comfortable. I can’t recommend this one enough!

Oasis Seahorse Playsuit

Again, I purchased this playsuit with the shirt and I’ve also lived in it all holiday in Lyme Regis. It’s comfortable, lightweight and so easy to wear. I love the fact it just works as an entire outfit too, and you can wear the shoulders down or up. The length is long enough to be modest and I actually find the design, colour and print of it to be quite mature. I took size 10 and it’s perfect.

Kate Spade California Dreaming Card Holder

I got this little card holder last month for the times I’m just wearing my smaller bags and not using a purse. It’s ideal for carrying my cards and notes without losing anything! The design on it is just so cute too, it’s literally adorable! I’m really into Kate Spade right now if you hadn’t noticed!

H&M Red Striped Cotton Shirt

A more fun take on the blue and white striped classic shirt, but in red. I want to get a shirt like this to wear with my jeans and denim shorts, but am yet to find one I liked. This H&M one could be perfect!

Topshop Rainbow Striped Camisole

I’ve always loved rainbow stripes and this camisole actually brings back so many memories. I remember when I was about 11 and all I wanted was a rainbow striped top to go with my indigo slim fit jeans and I could never find one. Why didn’t this exist back then? I would have been all over it! Perhaps I should still get it for old times sake!

Topshop Embroidered Shirt

I’m definitely very much into shirts and blouses now, so much so that it’s what I’m gravitating towards when I shop. I think as I age and approach 30, my tastes are still maturing and I love anything pretty, but mature like this.

Citizens of Humanity Rocket Crop Jeans in Canopy Green

Since I last did my wish list, I haven’t purchased any new denim still! I do however have my eye on these jeans here as I love the khaki colour to them. I think it’s so sophisticated and would look so chic with my white shirt! How many of you love this type of green on jeans?

Yumi Flamingo Print Jumpsuit

Finally, we have this flamingo playsuit! I actually bought it a few weeks ago and I wasn’t expecting to like it, but I absolutely LOVE it! I took it on holiday with me along with the playsuit with the seahorses and I lived in both of them. It’s light and breezy enough to be perfect for the summer, especially the evenings, but it’s fun too. I didn’t think something like this could be so flattering as well as pretty! It’s another piece I recommend to you!

– So, out of these 10 items, which do you love the most? You can see some of the pieces I was talking about on my Instagram Lyme Regis story highlight on my profile. Otherwise, I’ll be sharing the outfits next month for you! Happy Saturday! Lorna.

    Oh that card holder is the cutest! I do really like the red polka dot wrap top too though. You’re right it would look awesome with black jeans! 🙂

    Hope that you are having a great weekend! 🙂

    Wow, Lorna. What cool items you have chosen. I do love that red leather bag, it looks almost sexy, haha. That striped shirt would look amazing with jeans too. I also like the jumpsuits. All and all very good choices.

    Such a great round up and I didn’t know that Polyvore had closed it’s doors. My favorites are the flamingo print wrap jumpsuit – it looks so pretty and I bet even more so in person, the KS card holder because her designs are just so fun and the Oasis seahorse printed romper – those little poms has got my name all over it! Happy weekend!

      Yay! They are my 3 favourite pieces from my list! I love them all, and you’re right, the flamingo jumpsuit is much better in person, but so is the seahorse piece!

    You’re currently craving list is very similar to mine! I adore all of your choices especially the TopShop polkadot top and embroidered shirt!
    I also miss Polyvore, I hope another app comes along that is similar to it. But this particular round up is flawless. Yay you!

    I think this is one of your best wish lists ever… there are so many items here that I think are absolutely gorgeous and would suit you so well. 🙂

    I think you know which one I’m going to say is my favourite though don’t you? Yes, the green jeans. They are beautiful! That’s a shade of green that can pair up with so many different colours. If these jeans are not worth pausing your break from buying denim then I’m not sure what else would be. 😉 LOL

    I also think you should indulge your younger self by getting that rainbow striped top… after all, if it took so long to come into existence then who knows how long it’ll take to come back around again after it disappears this time. I’m sure you still have plenty of other jeans that will go nicely with it now even if you don;t have still the pair you’d originally wanted the top for. 🙂

    Also, special mention to the “Topshop Dot Wrap Red Top”, as well as being a cute item, for also having the best tongue twister name! 😉

      It is a tongue twister isn’t it? Ha ha.

      I knew you would say the jeans! It’s the green that gave it away. I’m so sad they are sold out in my size though at the moment so I am hoping they come back in stock. Fingers crossed!

      The rainbow striped top, I was contemplating between sense and heart with that. I mean I probably wouldn’t ever wear it purely because it’s a bit bright for me and not my style anymore really, but it’s something from my childhood, so I’m torn there!

      Really glad you like the entire wish list though!

  9. May 30, 2018 / 3:24 pm

    I think, whatever our main style, we all have odd days where we want bright colours though. 🙂 I’m wearing bright colours today actually – though that’s not an usual part of my look I suppose. 😀 Maybe in my case the subdued colours are the deviation… 😉

    Good look in getting those jeans. I’m not very surprised that they’ve sold out easily though. It’s not a colour that comes about all that often, 🙂

      Yeah, I’ve already planned outfits for the jeans lol, I think a white blouse and some brown shoes of some sort would look great!

      • May 30, 2018 / 8:50 pm

        Oh yes, that sounds great. 🙂 I think they’d look great with a black top too actually. That might just be me though, I often pair green and black together. I don’t have very much white in my wardrobe as it makes me nervous around food. Mind you, I got a really nice shirt for my birthday that’s mostly white.

          Oh I fully agree, black would look great with it! It’s a pretty versatile shade of green 😀 And your shirt sounds lovely! I love crisp white shirts!

          • June 1, 2018 / 2:03 pm

            I might put an outfit together including it on Instagram sometime soon. 🙂

    So many lovely features here, although my favourite has to be the gorgeous red and white polka dot wrap top – so perfect for summer! The Citizens of Humanity cropped olive jeans are also soooo perfect.
