Stephanie.

so it has been a while since i have done a 'whats on my wishlist' post and i thought seeing as my holiday is approaching and we are just starting winter i would share what is currently on my ASOS wishlist! there is A LOT so i will probably only put the things i really want!

my ASOS wishlist is always the biggest and the most adventurous. typically it has items that range from clothes to shoes and birthday cards to mugs. i generally also find myself wishlisting items for gifts for other people (especially my boyfriend), there is just always something on there i know he will love.

anyway so lets get into it...

CLOTHES

ASOS Design Vacay Tee and Frill Short Set - $48.00 AUD
the first thing on my wishlist in the clothing department are these pyjamas! they are super cute and obviously perfect for my holiday. although i do wish they were a little cheaper but nonetheless they are on my pre holiday shop list thats for sure. 

Outrageous Fortune Ruffle Sleeve Detail Top in Nude - $48.00 AUD
i feel like i never have enough 'going out tops or nice tops', every time i have a dinner or anything at night i am always like i have NOTHING to wear.  so i definitely want to add this one to my growing collection. i really like the colour and im not entirely sure if the sleeves are something i love but i do like everything else about it. 

New Look Brooklyn Logo Tee - $16.00 AUD
you can never have too many graphic tees! this made it to my wishlist primarily because it says 'Williamsburg Brooklyn'. if you've seen 2 Broke Girls then you know! i have never tried a new look tee so i am not entirely sure on what the quality will be like but for $16.00 you cant really go wrong.

Glamorous Playsuit with Gathered Cuffs and Sheer Sleeves in Coral - $39.00 AUD sale
i actually really like this playsuit (which is a little unusual for me because i am definitely a jeans and  a tee type of gal). but i think its really pretty and i like the sheer sleeves and the colour. i would more then likely take this on holiday with me and wear it to a few dinners with some wedges or heels. 

Pimkie Bardot Floral Print Playsuit - $44.00 AUD
another playsuit on my wishlist CRAZY! again, i am thinking for holiday. i like how this is strapless but has a layer of material that covers your boob area. i don't know about you but i really don't like how my boobs looking wearing a strapless bra so i am always more inclined to buy something strapless if it has a extra over layer and isn't skin tight! *sorry if TMI*

ASOS Design Chunky Jumper in Rib with Crew Neck in Grey - $50.00 AUD
love love love this jumper! it looks super comfortable and i really like the neck on it. this jumper would look really nice half tucked into some mom jeans with some converse or white vans! i think this will definitely be on my purchase list. 

Mink Pink Pretty Petals Beach Playsuit - $53.00 AUD sale
okay okay this is getting a little out of hand i know BUT its just so pretty!! i like how you could both dress up and dress down this playsuit. it could be really casual for a summers evening or it could be dressed up with some heels and jewellery for a birthday. Mink Pink also makes clothing that is always very flattering so i think this could look really nice on. 

Bershka Pom Pom Jumper in Cream - $36.00 AUD sale
this is such a cute jumper and i love the pom poms, they are a nice little detail on a plain knit. i also like the colour of jumper and like the model i would also wear it with a pair of light jeans with some boots or like casual sneakers.

Chelsea Peers Miami Shark Long Pyjamas in Pink - $42.00 AUD sale
so if you didn't already know, i LOVE sharks (great white sharks in particular) so these are obviously on my wishlist. they are so cute and even know i really don't need anymore pyjamas they are will more than likely be a purchase in the near future (sorry bae)

Pimkie Leaf Print Tropical Swimsuit - $25.00 AUD sale
if it has a tropical print i am SOLD. the past year i really have been loving anything and everything tropical so i definitely need this (especially considering its on sale). i also wouldn't mind taking this on holiday with me as my primary swimsuit, we probably won't do much swimming but in case we do, i think this would be a good purchase. 

Pretty Little Thing Polka Dot Bardot Mini Dress in White - $44.00 AUD
despite the fact this doesn't have an over layer on the top, i really like this dress! i think its classy and cute and also super cheap?! i wouldn't mind giving it a try and seeing how it looks on. but it would definitely look cute with some red accessories like the model has styled it but also with just some black or nude strappy heels.

SHOES

ASOS Munch Loafer Flat Shoes in Black - $50.00 AUD
i am patiently waiting (not patient at all but we can pretend)  for these to restock in my size!!! because they are exactly what i have been looking for!! i would wear these to work but also with jeans and a knit jumper (like Ana Grey in Fifty Shades Freed). so heres hoping they restock ASAP

Boohoo Studded Buckle Ankle Boot in Grey - $60.00 AUD
i have never looked at boohoo for shoes but these boots caught my eye. i am really into suede boots this season so i really like that these aren't your typical black suede boot. i like the buckles and the embellishing on the boot. hopefully they come back in stock in my size!! 

Nike Running Epic React Sneaker in Blue and Pink - $257.00 AUD
i NEED these!!! i orginally saw this shoe whilst in Melbourne when they were first released but they hadn't released the full colour range yet so i was hesitant to try on/get a pair that i wasn't fully in love with... and then they released this colourway and i fell inlove!! apparently they are super comfy and supportive (people are comparing them to Adidas Ultra Boosts which i already love) so these are also something i am waiting/hoping to come back in my size!

Kaltur White Ankle Tie Flatform Espadrille Sandals - $89.00 AUD
although these are really pricey, i think they would be so perfect for holiday and the summer! i really like they design of them and the woven pattern. i think they would look great with a summer dress or a denim skirt or even some blue or white jeans when it is a bit cooler. if these ever go on sale then i will definitely be purchasing them. 

ASOS Scarlette Mid Heels in Rose Gold - $42.00 AUD sale
these are a little out of my comfort zone but i really like them!! i like the pointed toe and the block heel and surprisingly i really like the metallic rose gold. these heels would look nice with a dress and also with a pair of jeans which is what i would probably wear them with. 

Public Desire Rose Gold Oyster Triple Strap Sandals - $52.00 AUD 
again a little different for me but i love!!! i need these in my life to wear with dresses when i go out (which is never but hey i can be prepared right?) they are just so pretty!! i like that they arent over the top and have a good chunky heel and simple straps. 

ACCESSORIES

Tangle Teezer Wet Detangler Hairbrush in Black - $22.00 AUD
the first random item on my wishlist is this tangle teezer brush. can you believe i never knew about/tried a tangle teezer brush until this year? now im ready to throw out all my other brushes and own 20 tangle teezers. they just work SO well. so i definitely will be investing in this beauty (and probably several others) 

Le Mini Macaron Gel Manicure Kit in Cherry Red - $49.99 AUD
so i am big on having a manicure and nice nails which i normally get done every 4-6 weeks. but obviously waiting that long results in chips and cracks in my polish... which is why this has made its way onto my wishlist. after all this time i could just do it at home?! myself?! why have i never thought of this? anyway basically i need this and all the accompanying shades to go with it. 
Le Mini Macaron Gel Nail Polish in Spiced Chai - $19.99 AUD
Le Mini Macaron Gel Nail Polish in Honey Ginger - $19.99 AUD
Le Mini Macaron Gel Nail Polish in Pommegranate - $19.99 AUD

Accessorize Sophie Tazzle Saddle Bag - $40.50 AUD sale
this bag is so gorg and i need!!!! i definitely want this to take on holiday with me. its just so nice and i really love the colours, they are giving me all the holiday vibes. this would more than likely only ever be used as a going out or to dinner bag but thats okay because its so reasonably priced!! (*hint to bae*

Maya Allover Sequin Embroidered Clutch Bag in Green Lily - $76.00 AUD
this bag reminds me so much of the gatsby era. it is really pretty and i would love to wear this as a statement piece to a wedding or function (i have none of these events coming up but). heres hoping it goes on sale so i can snap it up and hoard it until an event presents itself 

Stradivarius 'Mine Yours' Mug Set - $15.00 AUD sale
these mugs are so cute! i think these would be great to put in my 'glory box' for when bae and i move in together or even to give as a gift. i really like to collect mugs for some reason, is anyone else with me?

so that wraps up my current ASOS wishlist, i hope you enjoyed a little insight of what i am currently lusting over. i wish i could share my entire wishlist with you but we would be here WAY too long. what is currently on your wishlist?! i would love to know!!

over the past month (my birthday month) i picked up a LOT of new beauty products.
bae and i took a trip to Melbourne for my birthday and of course that meant a trip (multiple) to Sephora and Mecca Maxima.
i managed to get my hands on the Anastasia Beverly Hills Soft Glam Palette and the Amrezy Highlighter as well as picking up many more goodies.

i haven't had a chance to test them all out as of yet but so far i have some real faves.

i am really liking the Mecca Max Banana bake range, it sets my concealer and my face really nicely and leaves it feeling super smooth and soft. i also LOVE the scent, its so nice (i love anything that has that artificial banana smell hahahah).

i have also been loving the ABH Soft Glam palette (obviously!!), i think its my favourite ABH palette yet. it just has the nicest shade range and they are all so useable. the shades are quite pigmented but the darker shades do have a little bit of fall out (which i expect with a good dark shade) so you just have to remember to tap out your brush before applying.

the benefit Bad Gal Bang Mascara is another item i am happy i picked up. i really like how it applies and how it makes my lashes look. however i am finding it does my eyes a little itchy when i wear it *cries* but i am not sure if it is just not agreeing with another product I'm using with it or if its just not right for me. so i am going to test it a few more times and pray its not me!!!

after running out of testers, i decided to finally invest in the Estee Lauder Double Wear Nude Water Fresh foundation. i really like how this looks on the skin and how it still gives a nice coverage but is still super light. i like to describe this as my perfect sunday foundation, i like to wear it on a sunday or weekend when i only have to run a few errands and want to look somewhat presentable but don't want to wear a full coverage foundation. would highly recommend this one to anyone who wants a nice light feeling foundation that still has enough coverage.

you know that feeling when its sunday night and you can feel the working week slowly creeping up on you, thats me right now. wahhh!! but i can easily say i had a really nice weekend and am already looking forward to what next weekend has too offer.

on saturday bae and i hit the road for a little day trip down the coast to Victor Harbour, Middleton and Port Elliot to take photos and eat bakery food (mostly to eat bakery donuts). its about an hour and a half drive each way and it is such a nice drive. 

it was one of those days that just worked out perfectly (even if it was freezing!!) and made me really enjoy and appreciate the time i share with bae, we always have so much fun together. 

here are some photos from the day. 
this was also my first time using my new Canon Powershot SX730 HS Camera and i was quite happy with how the photos came out!!

the first monday of may is quickly becoming the biggest fashion event of the year. the annual met gala has just taken place and we saw some LOOKS.
this years theme was "heavenly bodies: fashion and the catholic imagination" which i thought some celebs really hit the mark with and others not so much?!
but at the same time i am loving the celebs that embraced theme in a simplistic way.

KIM KARDASHIAN WEST in Versace

the kardashian/jenners are always the ones i look out for on the red carpet and this year they once again lived up to my expectations.
kimmy served us a gold Versace number with embellished crosses on the front. she looked soooo good and definitely fit the 'heavenly body' theme in that dress.

KENDALL JENNER in Virgil Abloh

kendall looked like a saint in her white jumpsuit. lets just take a moment to appreciate the sleeves!!!
i really think she nailed this look and the theme in a simplistic way

BLAKE LIVELY in Versace 

blake lively is officially the met gala QUEEN. every year she is my favourite look and every year she nails the theme. the crown the dress the makeup, everything was perfect.
she really can't go wrong.

ARIANA GRANDE in Vera Wang

ariana is literally #goals. she always kills it on her red carpet looks and this years met gala was no different. i think that she can pull off anything and trust her to pull off the sistine chapel. can we also talk about her glam and tan, yasss.

RIHANNA in Maison Margiela Artisanal by John Galliano

i feel like rhianna always brings it for met ball every year. i mean can you do any better then going as the pope, amazing!! although i don't think it was the most flattering outfit but she definitely a fit the theme. 

HAILEY BALDWIN in Tommy Hilfieger

hailey and shawn my heart!!! they were so cute together and hailey looked gorgeous. i don't think she really fit the theme but nonetheless she looked flawless.

21!!
as they celebrations are now officially over i thought i would share what wonderful gifts i was spoiled with for my birthday this year.
this year was definitely one of my best birthdays ever, it was filled with two weekends away and ENDLESS cake. 


from my boyfriend i received a Tiffany ring and my first Louis Vuitton purse (que tears of joy). he also spoiled me with flowers and a donut bouquet!!!! honestly every year he just keeps topping the presents but i don't think he can do any better than this year, perfect!! love him. 
Tiffany & Co 1837 Narrow Tiffany Ring 
Louis Vuitton Clemence Wallet with Fushia Interior 


with some money i received, i picked out a Tiffany necklace which i had my eye on for a while. its so cute and i love the tiffany blue. i  also wanted to pick out something that was special and sentimental to my 21st. 
Tiffany & Co Return To Tiffany Mini Double Heart Tag Pendant 


i had a small family gathering on the day after my birthday which i made a cake for that semi worked opps. my aunty and cousin gifted me two gorgeous items from Mimco; a rose gold bangle and some rose gold earrings. 
Mimco Brixton Hinged Bangle in Rose Gold
Mimco Name Drop "S" Stud in Rose Gold 


bae also managed to get me the most craziest gift; Cards Against Muggles. i didn't even know this was a real thing but i am SO excited to play, i can see it being endless fun.
Cards Against Muggles


my boyfriends brother and his girlfriend (love them) spoiled me with the KKW creme lip set!! i have literally been wanting these for ages and i am so happy i finally get to play around with these.
they also got the Too Face sweet peach glow palette which i somehow have never seen before???! but i am definitely looking forward to trying it out and that blush is too die for!

KKW by Kylie Cosmetics Creme Liquid Lipstick Set 


to continue the makeup trend, my sister got me the Stila 'mind' palette which is all matte. i really like a good matte shadow and haven't tried any Stila products before so this was definitely an exciting edition to my palette collection. so far i really like the pigment and there are so many useable shades (normally i find palettes that only have 4-6 shades i will actually use but i would use all of the shades in this palette)
Stila Eyes are the Window Matte Palette in 'Mind' 


my parents got me a 21st pandora charm and are putting money towards my cruise in november!

in a weird way it doesn't even feel like my birthday happened even though we went to melbourne for it and had multiple celebrations, it all just went so quick. but i am intrigued to find out what 21 has in store for me and what i can achieve this year!
