Wednesday Wants

7:28 AM

Good morning you rays of sunshine, you.

It's already been a late start to my day-- I haven't had my coffee yet.

I hear it brewing away in the kitchen, but it should have been in a mug with creamer in my hand at least an hour and a half ago. I was obviously slow to wake this morning. I haven't even eaten breakfast!

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. When I was younger, I never like breakfast. Hated bacon (still kind of do), wasn't a fan of pancakes, only liked cereal for a snack, and whenever we had breakfast for dinner, oh gawd was I a grouch.

Now, that's all changed.

For some unbeknownst reason to me, something shocked the universe and shook my reality and made me a breakfast fiend. I love a fancy dish in the morning. Delicious eggs with spinach, mozzarella cheese, and parsley, yogurt parfait and a banana topped with peanut butter and chia seeds. Mmmmm.

I need to get off of my behind and cook me some grub, but first, I want to introduce a new idea to you all!

Every Wednesday, I'll put together a post of "Wednesday Wants." These items will consist of a list of things I have been wanting/needing/craving/obsessing over for a while, but just lack the heart (or ever growing bank account) to hit "Send to Cart" and purchase these little goodies.

I'm hoping over time I will accumulate these items in my closet, but if not, at least I can pretend window shop for hours and let them simmer in hope in that tiny cart of sadness.

Here are this week's wants:



Leather midi skirts have been on my brain for MONTHS now. I have been wanting one for so long, and truly, I will probably make this purchase before the start of the new school year. I've been itching for it like I'm addicted to PU Leather of something...

As you may tell, leather is a bit of my thing lately with my leather skirt, leather trimmed top, and leather weekender bag. How cute is that bag, by the way? With a shoe compartment, too!? It's adorable. Too bad I didn't have it for my previous trips! It would have been a splendid companion. My sad little black duffel will have to do for now. 

While I hardly ever pay decent money for makeup-- if it's over $10 I cringe and heavily debate not buying it, and usually don't-- but there's is something about Sephora's TwoFaced Chocolate Bar in Semi Sweet that makes me want to just throw all my money into that well lit black & white beauty haven. The colors are supposed to be super pigmented and smell like angel cocoa kisses, AKA, chocolate! 

Most of the other items are just pieces I've been craving for a while, like blue flats, a burgundy cardigan, and a peach blazer. And Zadie Smith is supposed to be this new Godsend of a contemporary author, and that fact that she is a twenty-three year old best selling writer blows my mind. I can't wait till I get the time to read a book for pleasure so I can pick up her book. Christmas time, maybe? 

Well, coffee is done. And now I'm craving something chocolate-y for breakfast. Chocolate chip protein pancakes perhaps? 

Stay Sweet,

Allison
