Lust-Have List: August 2011 | STAINED COUTURE
New month, but old news...IT'S HOT! Record-breaking heat is still prevalent across the country. However, there is a glimmer hope; Fall is coming! So, you will see plenty of fall worthy items. A. Hooded Leatherman Cardigan, $22.80, Forever 21 - What screams fall more than a letterman cardigan? However, this one looks like a jacket thanks to snap buttons and striped arms, reminiscent of a traditional varsity jacket. B. Brown Washed Leather Holdall, $140, TopShop - I need a "big bag" for everyday use. This bag is perfect, because it comes with handles and a strap for easy convenience. Also, I love the crinkle and slouchy look. C. Pumpkin Spinner Ashtray, $8, Urban Outfitters - For the past month, a friend of mine has been sofa surfing over at my apartment and he is an occasional smoker. Since I'm not a smoker, needless to say, my apartment was ashtray-free. He's been using a semi-empty candle jar to drop his ashes, but I need to find something cute and discreet. This Pumpkin Spinner ashtray looks perfect. It's white, chic, and looks to hide the ashes. D. Mossimo Crossbody, $24.99, Target - I went to Target yesterday and immediately saw, fell in love with, and tossed this bag into my big red cart. It stayed in my cart until I was near the register and realized that I don't need to buy a new bag anytime soon. However, all I could think about last night was going back to buy this bag. It looks a lot better in person, by the way. E. REPORT Bishop Pumps, $98.95, Nordstrom - Brown loafer pumps. Probably one of the must-have shoes for any fall wardrobe. Stay Stylish!
