I really don’t know why I keep torturing myself by online browsing and compiling these posts, I really don’t! Shopping is 100% off the cards for me at the moment having paid for all of the car purchase related necessities this week as well as getting my hair done. Bob and I have also started looking at rental properties, with a view to move at the end of the month so I really do need to reign things in…and yet still, I browse.

As you’d expect, there are picks from my usual favourite haunts- Thunder Egg and Monki both regularly feature in my wish lists and you can probably see exactly why I’m drawn to these items; I am a creature of habit after all. New Look has recently crept back on to my radar too, I walked in to my local store on my lunch break the other day and was taken with just about everything they had in stock…I had to make a hasty retreat before some purchases were made.

It’s also inevitable that homewares would feature on these posts, and they probably will crop up more regularly from here on out. It’s so exciting to be setting up home with Bob, we’re both like kids in the proverbial sweet store; even our mundane Saturday food shop has become all about the homeware aisles, never have tea spoons and fitted sheets been more exciting.

I also thought I’d pop in something I am coveting for Pablo right now. He’s a dapper little chap, and appreciate of the finer things (unlike Mae!) and I’m obsessed with all of the pet accessories that Hooby Noo– not to mention the human range! We bought Pablo’s collar tag from the shop when we first got him, and now they’ve bought out these adorable tweed bow ties I think another order can soon be justified.

Again, this post almost didn’t happen this week- I don’t know where time is vanishing to but I wish it would slow down a bit.
However, despite being incredibly busy I’ve still found time to do a little bit of browsing and I am finally getting chance to pull it together in to a rather Autumnal feeling wish list.

There has been a distinct chill in the air this week, hence the two coats featuring in this post. I know I’d never have the balls to pull off the puffer jacket in real life but I am drawn to how happy and bright it would make even the greyest of mornings [although wet walks to work will be a thing of the past now I’ve bought a car!].
I’m obsessed with all things cord so I’m also seriously drawn to the cord jacket too- both from one of my favourite online haunts, Thunder Egg.

Another solid favourite online haunt lately has been & Other Stories, who fell off my radar for a bit until I heard they are opening a store in Bristol very soon. I fell completely in love with the brand last time I was in Spain and right now, if I were rich, I’d be buying one of almost everything in their current collection.

The hoop earrings and trousers are somewhat more random additions, but both managed to grab my attention on my regular browsing sessions. Miss Selfridge are currently having a 30% off weekend making the trousers a very tempting prospect, but having just bought my first car today I really need to reign my spending in!
