My Amazon wish list

Hello ★

Yesterday i posted an Ebay wish list and thought i would today post my amazon wish list. I love amazon because everything you need is in one place and there are some great deals to be had. I mainly use amazon when I'm looking for home ware but have recently discovered some lovely clothing items that you might not find on the high street. I have but together a short list of my favourite finds, some of which i plan to buy in the future.

1. This red dress is from LINDY BOP and is a gorgeous Audrey Hepburn style swing dress. I have always been a big fan of the rockabilly look but have never had the confidence to wear the style. This dress is stunning and I would probably get away with wearing this day and night.

2.  When I saw this jumper I let out a bit of a girly squeal. Woodland animals make me do this. I also was attracted to the length. I am very paranoid about my stomach area so always go for longer length t shirts and jumpers. The Rabbit jumper costs a very pleasing £12.95.

3. I think i am the only girl in the world who doesn't own a onesie. I do really want one but have not yet gotten round to buying one. I have seen some very cute animal ones in Primark but for some reason felt silly buying one and felt that i probably would be too embarrassed to wear it. I have started searching for a plain one like this Hooded Onesie Suit i found on amazon.

4. I love love love these boots. I need them in my life. I love the sock effect they have, so cosy for the winter. Also the tartan effect is gorgeous. These ankle boots are £24.99.

5. I have fallen back in love with skirts. I stopped wearing them because I had confidence issues with my legs. I have never been one to show them off. Something has happen to me as now i love wearing them. I think it is because I have seen so many bloggers wearing them and love how they style them up.   This one is a cheap version at £7.00.

6. Finally on my wish list are these Dr Martens Unisex 1460 Boot. I have been wanting a pair for a massive six years now. If i had lots of money i would buy them in every style and colour.

Hope you are having a great Wednesday.

How to wear Doc Martens

 

How to wear: Doc Martens

If you have just brought some Dr. Martens or looking to buy a pair and you are unsure of what to wear with them, here's some ideas of how to style them. I would recommend your first pair to be a nice, plain black pair and try some that are fairly short.

 

How to pair these with your jeans.

Back in the '90s, both men and women wore faded boot cut bluejeans, and rolled them up a little to show off the boots. For a modern twist, chose a darker wash jean with a straight leg. Still roll them up a bit (this time for a slight cuff) to see the boot.

Tops:

Flannel shirts, tartan skirts and doc martens were born out of the Seattle grunge scene of the '90s. The trends persist and countless young celebrities sport Converse or Doc martins, flannels over leggings and skinny jeans, and ripped tights layered under cut-off jean shorts. It's almost as if Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Nirvana are still playing on the radio when in fact Foster the People, Vampire Weekend are controlling the airwaves. Wearing your Docs with a flannel shirt is perfect for achieving that vintage look but if it isnt your thing i recommend opting for a simple white oxford shirt or black fitted, long sleeve T for that cleaner look.

If you are going for a more feminine look, skirts and dresses look best paired with these boots. Alternate the flower print baby dolls with a fitted miniskirt and loose top.

Another look for ladies, is cutoff denim shorts with black tights. Simple Doc Martens complement the look nicely and fits well with the vintage and retro trends most celebrities sport these days.
