'cause i try and i try and i try

The Rolling Stones sang it true when they uttered the words, 'I can't get no satisfaction' because just when the weather turns and I get those deliciously balmy 30+ degree days that I have been so longing for I get a strong craving for chunky woolen knits. The kind of knits you throw on over Bassike tees, your most worn jeans and weathered boots, open fire place not included.

It is in my experience to never ignore cravings...so I'm just going to go with it. I'll just counterbalance my most favourite winter knits with some ripped summer shorts, a refreshing mojito and some serious air-conditioning.

my black heart aches for

I want to steal the clothe's off alexa chung's back on a daily basis

I want that fur jacket and plaid shirt, in that exact order

I want a gold lame adidas bag just like hers

I want that sheer Chloe shirt and those Bassike leather pants

I want her eyes

I want to ride shot gun in that trailer through a Californian desert

I want to be an Olsen just for one day

I want to claim that photo as my own

I want that large faux clock hanging as a centre piece in my room

I want more leopard in my life

I want to sell my soul for that Zimmerman body suit

I want a parisienne style maxi dress more than I want a crepe

I want to be as new york cool as Jess Hart

I want that pouch necklace hanging around my neck

I want to be that strong when I'm that old

I want to be in that photo standing right next to Warhol

I want to know...am I asking for too much?

Kirrily Johnston spring summer 09/10

3.1 Phillip Lim spring summer 09/10

Tis' friday night and I'm home sweet home. I have been craving a night in all week. Its cold so its the perfect excuse for hoodies, woolen socks and a fur blanket. A steaming green tea sits idle beside me and im waiting until its just bearable enough to hit my tongue, chocolate is chilling to perfection fridge side, movie is in the DVD player and my laptop is at hand so I can research to my hearts content.

Saw the most amazzzzzzzzzzzzing butterscotch leather Kirrily Johnston skirt online the other day and since then I cannot get it out of my head. I have literally envisioned it with every single racer back singlet and Bassike tee I own and every cream and black lace top I will buy to go with it. How can I justify the expense though? I thought maybe I could wear it track side next week at the races. But leather isn't exactly ladylike now is it? Oh the friday night dilemma, to buy or not to buy! I'm waiting for a sign from higher above that will point me in the right direction...but something tells me I will be going without necessities such as food and petrol for the next few weeks to satisfy my burning desire.

p.s. it appears Phillip Lim likes spring leather too...great minds think alike...or at least I like to think so.
