March Wishlist • FASHION

It's crazy how fast this year is flying by, it worries me how quickly this year is going. But as it soon becomes Springtime I'm starting to get more and more excited about the prospect of bare legs, beaches and above all bikinis! But we're not quite there yet... This is my March Wishlist of things getting me in the mood for Spring.

Ted Baker black shirt • Neil Barrett a line skirt, £240 • Gucci shoes • Safari hat • Works by Aydan Kerimli (8 photos)

At the moment these are my top 5 things I'm really liking...

Purple Makeup

Stila palette eyeshadow • Bobbi Brown Cosmetics shadow brush, £25 • Nars cosmetic, £24 • Nars cosmetic, £28 • Kevyn Aucoin eyeshadow • Tom ford eye shadow • Christian dior eyeshadow, £44 • Palette eyeshadow • By Terry travel toiletry case • Urban decay lipstick • Ilia paraben free lipstick • Lipstick queen lipstick • Stila eye shadow, £14 • Jane Iredale lip pencil, £7.60 • Le Métier de Beauté moisturizing lipstick, £21 • Topshop moisturizing lipstick, £5.53 • Charlotte Tilbury lip pencil • Smashbox shiny lip gloss, £14 • Nars cosmetic • Urban decay lipstick

Eyes or lips, I'm really embracing the lilacs, lavenders and plum colours, it's a nice bridge colour between the wet wintery weather and starting play with the pastels a bit more.

Crop Tops

H M white crop top • Topshop black crop top • MINKPINK crop top, £18 • Billabong white tank top, £14 • Pieces black t shirt • Crop top, £5.53 • Topshop petite top • River Island black crop top

If you've got the abs for it, crop tops look so stunning in the spring and summer months. I cannot wait to start bringing these out of the drawers, and not just using them as vests as an extra layer!

High Waisted Mini Skirts

Abercrombie Fitch black knit skirt, £9.41 • River Island striped skirt • Missoni short mini skirt, £740 • J Crew black mini skirt, £115 • Paul Joe Sister short mini skirt • Ralph lauren skirt, £47 • J Crew j crew skirt • DKNY black mini skirt • Carven navy blue skirt, £185 • Diane Von Furstenberg blue pleated skirt • RyuRyu purple skater skirt • River Island wrap skirt, £42

Probably my most worn item out of everything I wear. The classic high-waisted mini will be making its appearances again this year, and the next most likely, and the year after that...

High Heels

Sergio Rossi sandals • Yves Saint Laurent navy blue pumps, £445 • Gianvito Rossi mule shoes • Manolo Blahnik orange sandals, £550 • Wild Diva high heel shoes, £19 • Gianvito Rossi red shoes, £380 • Giuseppe Zanotti green pumps, £380 • Ted Baker gladiator sandals shoes, £95 • Stuart Weitzman suede shoes, £215 • Jimmy Choo purple sandals, £795 • High heel pumps, £15 • Jeffrey Campbell suede shoes, £140 • Gianvito Rossi heels & pumps, £455 • Rupert Sanderson heels & pumps, £440 • Paul Andrew peep toe shoes, £550 • Casadei leather sole shoes, £260 • Casadei pointed-toe pumps, £340 • Purple shoes

Now the ground is covered in rain and it's not all slippy, it's time to crack out the slip ons! Stiletto pumps are the item I'm lusting over... I think 2016 is the year I finally get really into more 'out there shoes' and by that I mean ones that aren't black and all look identical.

Hats

Gladys Tamez Millinery black hat, £480 • Wide brim hat, £76 • Billabong fedora hat, £22 • Rag bone wool hat, £205 • Maison Michel waterproof hat, £380 • Floppy hat, £20 • Rag bone hat, £125 • Rag bone hat, £155 • Topshop wide brim hat, £17 • Rag bone hat, £155 • Rag bone black hat, £150 • Rag bone hat, £135 • Rag bone hat, £155

It's such a statement accessory and looks so good with the right outfit, I can't fault a good hat. It's so much more than a tool to hide a bad hair day, it's a way of extending your personality and really making a masterpiece of your outfit.
