So how do you guys like the new wishlist layout? I've literally spent the last three hours getting all creative and I actually really enjoyed it. 
I feel it looks a lot nicer than the simple white backgrounds I had previously been using. 

Upon looking into my wardrobe this morning, rain pouring outside, my house feeling like an igloo. I realised that I don't actually own any clothes suitable for Winter. It turns out that throughout the "Summer", I chopped up too many pairs of jeans, leaving myself with only one old battered pair, 3 jumpers, wearing very thin due to their age and a couple of pairs of leggings suitable for an angsty teen.

Over the Winter, with my non existent funds, I really want to transform my wardrobe into something more grown up and weather proof. 

I'm absolutely loving skater and tunic style dresses at the moment. Perfect to team with tights, knits and chunky healed boots. I always tend to lean to the darker end of the colour scale in Winter also, I find it's more me and makes it easier to create a ton of looks with only a few pieces. 
I'm definitely in need of some more bottoms too. I chose some thick leggings, because I hate to say it, but I really do like my comfort, and some high waisted pants to add a touch of sophistication. 

I think a good range to textures is key in a Winter wardrobe. It's a very easy way to keep an outfit interesting. 

What would you pick if you could get a whole new Winter wardrobe?

It's a big'un!

Somehow I managed to end on the River Island website this morning and I ended up falling in love with so many pieces.

After London Fashion Week, I am yet again craving to revamp my wardrobe. I kind of feel like I need to start dressing my age, and maybe a little less like a fashion confused teenager. 
The clothes I have in my wardrobe are pretty much things I would have worn five or six years ago, and I think I need to finally move away from that.

My ultimate goal is to have a wardrobe a little more sophisticated, but still edgy. I love the addition of different textures and materials. 

I had to add the rose gold watch, because I am still way behind on that one, and I still haven't managed to get my grubby mitts on one. 

What do you guys think of the pieces from River Island at the minute. I for one love them.
