Wants: Bib Necklace

Crescent Leaf Necklace, Forever 21, $6.80

I've never been a huge fan of statement necklaces. I think it's just because I've never had one that fit my body shape. I remember when the long multi-strand necklaces were in style. I even bought one. But the strands would cling onto my boobs for dear life unless I wore something that totally covered me up. Even then, they would travel along the sides and frame out my chest to everyone. As if they weren't obvious enough!

Lately, I've been thinking of getting a bib necklace, one of those that goes across your neck instead of down your chest. I shop quite a bit at Forever 21 (cause I'm poor) and I kind of like, love this necklace.

My boobs more or less make a shelf for necklaces and it always draws so much attention to the girls. I think having something across my décolleté will draw some attention from my fun bags. Hopefully. In any case, these won't get lost in my cleavage. I think it would also balance out the width of my chest as well.

What do you think?

Lusting for Leopard Wedges

Mercer Wedge Boot $110

Mercer Wedge Boot $110

I don't know why, but I've been lusting over leopard wedges. This is weird because I've never liked wedges and I've always thought leopard should be reserved for the cats themselves, but somehow, I'm dreaming about leopard wedges day in and day out. I'm particularly in love with the above pair.

I think paired with some skinny jeans, a simple tee, these shoes would be so fierce. If only $110+tax would just fall into my lap. :'(

Wants: A Mustard Scarf

Looks so cozy!

I've been hearing that mustard yellow is the it color for fall this year. I love love love this color, but I never manage to find something that looks right on me. When I saw this scarf, I fell in love. It's so bright and cozy looking! I think I would be able to brave any storm. I've been really liking oversized knits lately, but my curves wouldn't look good in slouchy knits. I think a chunky scarf is a great way to play with some bulk without adding weight. It just looks so comfortable. Alas, the $31 price tag is just out of reach for me. (Poor college student has to eat)

I'm hoping that the mustard trend doesn't go away because I really love the color and I think it complements a lot of skin tones. Plus, by next year, hopefully a job will come in and I can afford scarves like these. :)

Wants: Jeggings

Jeggings were a trend that I had a hard time accepting. I was a staunch opponent of leggings as pants because it just looks bad. It looks so unkempt. Like you just rolled out of bed and didn't bother to wear pants. Now, let me clarify, I don't mind leggings. I think leggings are great. Though, personally, I stopped wearing the calf length leggings and wear either tights or ankle length leggings because they elongate my legs instead of making them look stumpy.

BUT, I just have a face of horror when I see a girl wear leggings as pants i.e. I can see their crotch/butt. I just don't think this is a cute look. MAYBE... MAYBE as an outfit to the gym, it would be acceptable, but even then, don't you need your bits to breathe? In any case, I don't think I should be seeing anything skin tight around that area. It just looks.. whorish.

But jeggings aren't like that. They actually look like jeans. They're opaque and although they don't have much structure, the material is thicker so you don't get awkward bumps and lumps. And they just make your jeans look like they were made for you.

Sadly, I haven't found a pair that I've liked yet. :'( I'm gonna keep looking, but it's hard to find one that's the right length on me. Also, I don't know if you can tailor it like regular jeans since the spandex needs a different type of stitching.

Wish me luck on finding a good pair!
