WISH[LIST] UPON A STAR.

WISH[LIST] UPON A STAR. by thejuicyjournal featuring fitted dresses

Hey everyone! Today was a bit of a drag huh?! Not even Halloween yet and snow (and rain) are falling and killing the weekend. With no where to go and nothing to see except the mess outside, I decided to put together a wishlist. The holidays will soon be upon us and I figured, what better way to prepare for that question that makes us all smile: "What do you want for Christmas?" =]

FUR: Currently, I'm having this love affair with fur. I just love the feeling. On my wishlist are a full fur hat, scarf and earmuffs. I promise I won't wear them all at once but I must have each of them! haha.

HAIR ACCESSORIES: My natural hair is finally at a point where I can attach pretty bows and other accessories to it for added spice and I'm so excited! Time to get CRAY! haha


MONIF C. : If you've been keeping up with my posts, then you are aware that Monif C. has released her holiday collection of dresses for 2011; my favorite being the Samantha Sequin which is AMAZING. Another hot Monif dress is the Emme Ponte Knit Arrow dress in ivory and black. This dress is simple enough to wear to work, and chic enough to wear for a special occasion. I love dresses that are multi-functional.

ASOS DRESSES: Also on my wishlist are three ASOS dresses which I am contemplating for the New Year. I love the elegance of the full lace dress, the funk of the dress with a fitted top and poofy tool bottom and the sass of the fitted black dress with sheer sleeves. I can see myself in all three of these, laughing it up with a glass of wine in hand.. or bottle.. or both haha.

SEQUIN DRESS & BLAZER (DOROTHY PERKINS): seriously, who doesn't love sequins.. great way to stand out at night.

HANDBAGS: The Neon Satchel from Cambridge Satchel Company I ♥ . I can't think of any color I can't wear this bag with.

LEATHER SKIRT: Leather Cult Company offers custom made leather pieces including skirts, shorts, pants, jackets and much more! Not only custom sizing, but custom length and color choices as well. This is undoubtedly the item on my wishlist I want the most, and better be under the Christmas tree. =]

AMERICAN APPAREL LEGGINGS: I love that American Apparel has expanded their sizes to an XL. I guess someone talked some sense into them?! A lot of companies need to follow suit. Sorry to mess up your perfect little company's image but the average size in the US is a 16. Do you care more about image than company profit? I'm just saying *shrugs* Anyway, I'm not the biggest fan of liquid leggings but I love the variety of colors these come in, and paired with a blazer and colorful pumps, the result could be magical.

SHEEPSKIN UGGS: Last winter, I completely abandoned my UGGs. I traded them in for military boots which I still love to death and hope will never go out of style. Even though my love for UGG boots have faded, these sheepskin ones have definitely made me fall in love all over again. It brings out your inner diva and makes you feel on top of the world. Besides, I believe every girl should channel their inner Snooki! ♥

EVANS BELTED TUNIC/LACE ACCENT TOP (DP): The lace accented sheer top from Dorothy Perkins would be a nice addition to my wardrobe, and very fall 2011. I have a bunch of lace tops but nothing lace accented so this piece is necessary to me. I've been on a sheer obsession for a few months now so this Evans Belted Tunic should be no surprise, but what I love about it is the length which allows me to throw it on  in a hurry with leggings and still look FAB!

WHAT'S ON YOUR WISHLIST?

PLUS SIZE REMIX: KELLY ROWLAND.

Last week, Kelly Rowland rolled through 106 & Park to promote her new album "Here I Am". Lately Kelly has been killing the blogs with her fashion sense, so I was pretty excited to see what she would be wearing. As expected, she delivered; she stepped out wearing a a black mini dress with a a real cute geometric design on the front, along with a metallic cuff and nude pumps. I loved the geometric pattern for two reasons: For one, it's super funky and two, it's very slimming. (Not like Kelly needs to appear any thinner.) In any case, I was feeling this look to point that I HAD to make a PLUS SIZE REMIX version! I haven't done one since Rhi Rhi's all white pant suit so I hope you're as excited as I am. 

The dress I found is from Dorothy Perkins and I felt it had the same slimming effect as Ms. Kelly's mini dress. Although it's a bit longer, it's far from matronly and to be sure of that I added some leopard print heels from Aldo. Nothing says youthful and fly like leopard print haha! I added some more color with a two tone clutch from ASOS ♥ and some flare with over-sized thin gold hoops and stacked bangles. Lastly, an orange-red lip and  goldish-orange finger tips (OPI "the 'it' color")

WISH[LIST] UPON A STAR.

There are so many things my heart desires at the moment, definitely not enough to list so I selected a few of my favorites to share with you. Right now, as you can see I'm going through some sort of shoe fetish, but most of you ladies can relate so I don't feel too bad. 


The first two shoes are from Jeffrey Campbell and stole my heart the day I walked into Nordstrom and spotted them from a mile away! The colors are so bright and pigmented and will work great with your summer's color blocking. I recently saw these leopard print doc marten's on Fatshopaholic's blog and fell in LOVE; I have a sickness.. I can't turn down leopard print, it's just too hard haha.


 I've been searching for the longest time for a longline bra that was both cute and affordable. I finally found just that on the Torrid website on sale for $20. Can't wait to pair it with a bright mini skirt and blazer.. EXCITING. Also on the list, I have 2 dresses and a handbag currently on sale at ASOS where you can save up to 50% on their summer sale. 

Forever 21 recently brought back their 5 inch platform floral mary janes a few days ago and just my luck as soon I went to buy, it was sold out.. again -_- . Oh well ,I thought I would share them anyway.. aren't they precious? The orange embroidered sundress is from Dorothy Perkins. It's so sweet and innocent and would look so cute with some white espadrilles wedges.

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!
