Purse Palpitations Week #14

Ding ding ding! The Celia Birtwell for Uniqlo collection is all in the sale and this great printed tee is currently a steal
T-shirt £7.90 Uniqlo

Camis seem to be the basic to own at the moment, with everyone and their mother owning the Topshop ones. River Island actually have a great selection too and they're cheaper.
Cami £15 River Island

H&M Sportswear is my favourite on the high street and they keep bringing out new pieces that maintain that status. This sports bra is a new must-have.
Sports bra £12.99 H&M

These T-Bar Points are such a fabulous shape and the pastel shade is perfect to see out Summer with some boyfriend jeans
Heels £68 Topshop

Purse Palpitations Week #13

It's been months since I've written one of these. Every week I have a mental shopping list of what I'm obsessed with, I just need to make sure I actually get it down on this here blog! Let me know what's your favourite item on this week's list on the comments below or by tweeting me at @charlienin.

Isn't this dress just adorable? It's 60s cut, cobalt colouring and preppy collar are all perfect.
Boutique by Jaegar - £80

My search for the perfect white shirt continues! It seems never ending. This has all the potential of having the right fit for androgynous tailoring without actually making me look like a man...
Filippa K at Stylight - £80

After breaking in my white A-line skirt a few weeks ago, I've decided I love this shape. This V front cut gives it a new take that I love.
New Look - £17.99

There's something about tweed and leather that work so perfectly together. A wrap skirt always looks so feminine but this has a punk edge to it. It demands big stompy boots for Autumn.
Rag & Bone at The Outnet - £69.70

This print is incredible. Goodbye ditsy florals! This looks like a photograph negative with splashes of neon. Tough and chic all in one.
Warehouse - £48

Purse Palpitations Week #12

Spring is creeping up, maybe this post will help it hurry the hell up..

               Bird print dress - Phase Eight £29.63

Short sleeve lace crop top - Topshop £15

Lonsdale Wind Runner Jacket - Sports Direct eBay Outlet £14.99

Tory Burch printed tee - The Outnet £44

Purse Palpitations Week #11

Another week, and more things I want in my life. Click on the Purse Palpitations tag below this post to see my lusts from past weeks too!

I'm trying not to buy too much black at the moment, but I've just ended up filling my wardrobe with grey instead. This mesh insert jumper is great for the sports luxe trend and looks soooooo cosy.
Dorothy Perkins £19.99

Yes, I have 3 denim shirts already. That doesn't mean that I don't want to wear this one with leggings and high tops until I skip around the house with glee.
Mango at John Lewis £29.99

I've tried wearing round sunglasses and they don't suit me. But I'm still of the 'the bigger the better' thought process when it comes to sunnies. Cat-eye specs instead for me please.
& Other Stories £29

I am a big fan of tube skirts. Weirdly they are much more flattering on me than midis which just make me look like I have a spare tyre. I love this start print one from Topshop.
Topshop £22

Purse Palpitations Week #10

It's been a while since I last did one of these posts, but that's not to say I haven't been roaming the internet for bargains as well as other things I can't afford. So here's the return of Purse Palpitations, and the things I've been drooling over this week.

Topshop £38

Michael Kors - The Outnet £89

Mango at John Lewis - £22.99

Boohoo £15

Oasis £35

Purse Palpitations Week #9

Another week, another list of things I want in my life!

This dress is simple fussy. Lots of colours and patterns but on one basic shape.
H&M £14.99

I've had my iPhone for a while now but still haven't found the perfect case. I think I'm going to take advice from Sarah at A Million Dresses and just buy more than one!
Chicwish £12.94

The little sister of Boohoo.com has got a great range of jewellery and accessories for such low prices! I love this spike leather tote bag.
Pretty Little Thing £30

And saving the best til last! These are simple and classic, they'll go with everything, and I'm totally in love with them.
ASOS £22

Purse Palpitations Week #8

Oh the shops are full of such goodies right now. It hurts me that I can't afford to splurge on all of these! I'd better start writing to Santa!

OK, they look like Noel Fielding's gone crazy in the glitter aisle, but oh they are so pretty. Opaque tights and a big statement necklace are needed with these.
ASOS £45

Really want these adorable elbow patches to sew onto a plain grey jumper.
eBay £4.99

Looking at this blazer actually physically hurts me. I want to dress in the reject material from Mary Poppins' handbag!
River Island £35

Two months in to living in my new flat and there's still a big space above our lounge mantlepiece that's driving me crazy with its emptiness. How about this?
AmandaCatherineDes on Etsy £9.63

Purse Palpitations Week #7

Getting into the spirit of Halloween slightly earlier with this week's Purse Palpitations - channeling my inner goth. My 14 year old self would be so proud!

I have so many chunky knits, but somehow I haven't got a black one. This is mine come payday.
£45 Topshop

Oh good god, punk cutlery. This is all shades of bloody amazing.
£5.99 - £7.99 per item Zara Home

This and my stripy blazer are just meant to be together
£7.99 New Look

I would wear this all year round!

This is ten times more amazing when you realise it's called 'I'll Have A Bee Please, Bob!'
£16.50 Eclectic Eccentricity

My favourite print on an amazing full skirt
£35 ASOS

I love these earrings. I don't really like dangly earrings but these are big and won't move!
£8 Dolly Bow Bow

Still on the search for the perfect black handbag after my Topshop one broke and I still can't afford my dream Mulberry
£48 Urban Outfitters

What's tempting you in the shops this week?

Purse Palpitations Week #5

Starting to think about my A/W wardrobe but I have a holiday before then too. These things are currently top of my list:

I think I'm going to have to get this as my holiday beach bag. It's so colourful! £16.99 from Mango

Houndstoothtastic £24.99 from New Look

Gloriously tacky. Definitely need it. £2.26 from Dollarjewlery on Etsy.

Love that gothic is coming in for AW12. This is top of my list so far. £38 from Topshop

Purse Palpitations Week #4

Some festival fashion lusts and general needs this week.

I desperately want this to be my Summer to Autumn coat this year. £50 from River Island

I frickin' love Aztec print. After seeing these bags on Pink Julep I've completely fallen in love.  £40 from Aldo.

I've wanted this for long. I really should just suck it up and bloody buy it. £19 from Me & Zena.

Floral dip hem skirt. What's not to like? £19.99 from Bershka.

Verging on sheer obsession with all of these things this week.

The colour, the pleats, the buttons. Oh god! And only £16 from Matalan!

I am mega stud, hear me roar! £15 from ASOS.

I need this for Bestival with some denim cut offs. Need. £24 from Olive.

I think I can finally embrace the floral trousers trend with these. It's taken a while. £48 from Motel.
