Spoiler: I’m adding all of these to my basket
Hey Besties,
I thought I’d pop together a little wish list of bits and bobs I’ve been lusting after lately — think of it as a peek into my current obsession corner. From pieces I need to try, to accessories I just know I’ll be reaching for time and time again, and a few new-in finds that have been living in my head rent-free… it felt only right to let you in on the things that are seriously tempting me right now.
Wonderskin Wonder Lip Stain — I’ve been absolutely inundated with targeted ads for this, and for once… the hype might actually be justified. I’d been trialling the Sacheu Stayn Lip Liner, but I’ll be honest — it’s been a total let-down. It vanishes the second I take a sip of anything, offering no staying power whatsoever. Fortunately, my sister has the Wonderskin Wonder Lip Stain, so I’ve had the chance to test it out before taking the plunge — and I have to say, I’m thoroughly impressed. It gives that effortless, polished look with minimal effort and serious staying power, making it the ideal upgrade to any summer make-up bag.
Laneige Matcha Bubble Tea Lip Sleeping Mask — I’m not sure I can admit just how many pots of this golden goodness I’ve gone through — it’s firmly earned its place as a holy grail product on my bedside cabinet. I genuinely can’t sleep without it. As I’ve just reached the end of my current pot, the timing couldn’t be more perfect: the new Matcha Bubble Tea flavour has just launched, And I’d be lying if I said the soft green pot and dreamy texture weren’t reeling me in already.
Food Themed Earrings — Say less. I literally screamed when I stumbled across these little delights. You already know I’m a ride-or-die foodie fashion girlie — so naturally, the olive and chilli earrings came home with me. With summer just around the corner, I’m fully leaning into playful, juicy accessories to elevate every look. The peas in a pod and corn on the cob studs are next on my hit list — I’m manifesting a whole edible, stackable ear situation and it helps that these are gold plated for longer wear.
The spicy marg–inspired combo I’m loving right now.
Jenki Matcha Starter Kit — After sampling my way through a few different matcha brands, I finally tried Jenki Matcha from Selfridges — and honestly, it’s the best I’ve ever had. Total game-changer. Since then, I’ve been dreaming up my own little at-home matcha station, and this starter kit is top of my wishlist. I’m ready to be mixing up ice blueberry matchas on the daily as my sunny day go-to drink.
Vegetable Brooches — I hope you’re reading this newsletter because you adore food-themed bits as much as I do, hehe. These vegetable brooches are the perfect little touch to elevate any bag or outfit. I’ve recently fallen in love with using a brooch to pull a look together — whether it’s to echo a colour or tie in a fun theme, it just adds that extra something.
Polka Dot Leather Blend Mini Bag — When I say this bag has been living in my head rent-free, I mean it. I’m fully in my polka dot era right now, and I’ve caught myself reaching for a spotty bag more than once lately. I don’t own a Ganni Bou bag just yet, but this one is seriously tempting me — the neutral tone makes it so versatile, it would go with everything.
Adidas Sambae Trainers — We all know I’m trainer obsessed — my collection is getting a little out of hand at this point. So, while I absolutely can’t justify buying these (no matter how much I want to), popping them on my wish list is helping me pretend they’re already mine. I’m obsessed with the platform sole and this winning colour combination. I genuinely believe a colourful pair of trainers is a must-have in any wardrobe — the perfect way to add a pop of colour to any outfit.
Polka Dot Mini Dress — Polka dots have got me again! And the buttery lemon base of this dress? Just makes it all the more irresistible. I’ve got such dreamy visions for this little number — perfect worn solo or effortlessly thrown over trousers for that cool, layered look.
Polka Dot Sun Hat — (Anything for a coordinated moment — and you’ll find me in a floppy, chic sun hat all summer long).
I hope you enjoyed this little round-up of my current wish list finds — from polka-dot dreams to foodie-inspired gems. If any of these pieces caught your eye, I’d love to hear which ones you’re adding to your own wish list! See you in the next one. Thanks for being here as always.
So much love,
