Dear Santa...
When waiting for payday .. window shopping come's to mind!
Although unbearable when picking out beautiful pieces knowing that theirs no money in the bank .. one can dream.
Still living in Dubai, today I strolled down Marina Walk (the area in which I'm staying) and came across some wonderful places.. the first that comes to my mind is Waitrose .. which reminded me a bit too much of home and how weird it is going to be spending Christmas in the sun.. is it crazy to wish for crisp cold air and a log fire?
When I stopped dreaming in Waitrose, I started another kind of dreaming in the beautiful store 'Boutique 1' in Jumeirah Beach Residence.
Boutique 1 is a fabulous shopping experience, shop advisors so kind they follow you around picking up the pieces you want to try on and that isn't even their private shopping service. They will also on request, let you have the shop to yourself and let you private shop after opening hours. INSANE!
Still lusting after Missoni a few of the things that will be on my christmas list are:
1. Missoni playsuit
2. Missoni dress
3. Acne waterproof boots
4. Haute Hippy leather shorts
5. Matthew Williamson sunglasses
I know its out of the question but a girl can have fun believing a fairy godmother was watching over to grant those wishes.
What are you going to put on your christmas list?

Here are a few pictures of the outfits I tried on:

Iconic print of the moment.
Boho but chic, the print my post is based on today is one of the most recognised around - MISSONI!
Right now though it is the print everyone is lusting after, so much that high street brands such as New Look, River Island, Accessorise and Forever 21 have started to copy it, but why ?
River Island's take on Missoni
As in every season there are a few trends this winter and as ever hippy is playing a massive part in that.
This print has been around for along time, but most recently caught my eye as I was rummaging through my mother's wardrobe as the fabric is beautiful and so eye catching. Let's just hope she doesn't notice anything missing.
Two celeb's I have recently seen rocking this trend are Nicole Richie and the newbie to the scene Elizabeth Olsen, who unlike here sisters who are both my idols sport's a more chic and solitary look.(see below)
I love Missoni myself and my dream purchases are the converse (i can find them NOWHERE) and also the Maxi dress below!!
I have managed to collect a few things on the way though.
1. A scarf - which to my Mother's annoyance I wear around my head
2. A hair tie which shamefully I have not used
3. The Classic Missoni bikini which has been used TOO much!
How I would love to be Margherita Missoni and have access to all those wonderful things, my eyes would be popping out like a kid in a candy shop!
