Hi everyone,



Here's what I've bought so far this year:


Chandelier sandals by Prada - had to make an advance payment for these, supposed to arrive by the end of this month


Skirt by Miu Miu - I've also paid for this, it'll be shipped together with other pieces from the collection once they arrive. Can't wait! Spring/Summer deliveries are taking ages!


Shorts by Current/Elliott


D Bag by Tod's - I didn't mean to buy these, I went along with my dad to Tod's to pick up his shoes and he offered the winter Gommini tall boots followed by a handbag to "go with"... I'm a "shoes" girl (not so much Tod's), I wouldn't have bought them with my own money lol


Frames by Tom Ford - I wear contacts but I didn't get any power for the lenses... purely for style-purposes lol

Sweatshirt by Etoile by Isabel Marant - paid and arrived but waiting for a silk skirt in black also by Etoile by Isabel Marant to be shipped together from LA...



I'm on the waiting list for the below items:



Blouse by Miu Miu - I want it in navy as shown on the runway but I have been informed that they will not be made in navy, just black. Better than nothing I guess...


Dress by Alexander Wang - I was 50:50 about this piece initially, but I'm convinced now... I think it's an iconic piece... from the back it looks like you're wearing a cropped sweatshirt and mini because of the cut-outs on both sides of the waist... bit much but it's all about the impractical?

^ Wowowow, how did you get your hands on those Prada shoes? They look amazing! And I love the Miu Miu blouse, I loved all the prints in that collection I sooo want a pair of the shoes with the bird print!

 

[hyunkyounglee]

Fika - I sent the Prada store a picture of the chandelier sandals and they told me I had to make a special order and an advance payment as they will not be displaying them in-store (which basically pushed me over the edge lol).

I love the Miu Miu shoes with the bird print as well! Do you mean the pink pair with crystals? I LOVE THEM! I've told a SA I'm in touch with at Miu Miu to keep a look out for the mary janes from the collection:

There are so many colours and prints available for the shoes, I really don't know which one to go for but these yellow two-tones are gorgeous! 99.9% of my shoes are black, I'm really trying to diversify! Lol. I would get the pink pair with bird prints and crystals if I didn't order the Pradas "loaded" with crystals.

I love the naked lady print on the blouse, but maybe not for the shoes... thinking either bird or cat? Which one do you like best?
