The Shopping Bug: Fall Fashion

Can't buy any of this, but the fall J Crew catalog followed by September Vogue arriving in my mailbox has reminded me that a lot of new merchandise is hitting the stores.  I utter a huge sigh when thinking of the following items.

J.Crew Coddington suede platform heel in dusk red, $228.

Shown on the foot.  Not digging the wool boyfriend's sock legwarmers.


That color of red and the forties feel of the low-vamp and the same color platform make for a beautiful shoe.


And then there is this bag, which looks slightly worn in and like you could use it forever.  Sigh, sigh, sigh.

Okay, hopefully posting this will purge these from my consciousness.

Anyone seen something they are coveting this Fall?

Things I want today but can not afford.



Fairly practical items:

The Andi hobo from JCrew.  Indigo, on sale for $149.



The Sprinkled Chiffon top from Anthropologie.  Grey, $128.


Totally impractical items:

Lanvin headband by Boring Sidney @ Etsy.  $80.


And this is too awesome not to mention, the Boris cloche, also from Boring Sidney. $75. 


And I'd like this to be my office.  From Elle Decor, March 2009.  Anne Becker's apartment:


Okay, now I have to go look at something nice that I already own before I depress myself.
