Desire: Helen Moore faux fur scarves

Whilst flicking through LOOK magazine I came across this gorgeous blue faux fur vixen scarf from Helen Moore. I'm really into strong colours this Spring and would love to own one of these, but also want it in about five other colours...aaghhh!!!! The blue or pink would look amazing with an all black or all white outfit.

You can buy it on the Helen Moore website for £68...and the best thing is, it's faux!

Desire: Laura Lane vase


I spotted this stunningly eerie but beautiful vase on a user's Instagram, and when I looked it up I found out it was the hand made work of an artist from Cornwall called Laura Lane. It's quite tricky to find her stuff but you can buy this vase on Folksy for £45.

The vases are made of porcelain with historic images splashed with real gold lustre. This specific series is inspired by the value society places on precious materials such as diamonds and gold. It is part of the illegal mining series of vessels that the artist made called Geometric Triangles.

Desire: Senso boots

Senso is this cool Australian brand that I just discovered. They do these unusually cut booties which look awesome with jeans! Wish they had all the styles in the UK but they are still fairly new over here. Check them out at Harvey Nichols.

Senso, around £160

Desire: Alexander Mcqueen De Manta silk clutch

How cool is this bag!? I didn't think I would like this neon trend as much as I do, but I'll be sure to embrace it this summer with accessories and shoes. This Alexander Mcqueen clutch style has been around for ages but the unusual dragonfly print gives the playful yellow colour even more edge.

Obviously the shape and design seems to be based on a De Manta Ray fish, and the bag resembles this even more once fully opened. I love the concept and will be looking for something similar in the high street stores.

Desire: Musilova PREEN for Aldo Rise heels

I tried this on today and I fell in love. They are sooooo comfortable and unbelievably chic! The photos don't do them justice. The details on the material are so beautiful, and the stark white colour of them makes me obsessed. I always loved white vintage shoes, so glad the trend is back!

Desire: Caroline Issa for LK Bennett

These gorgeous and quirky heels are designed by style icon and fashion director of Tank magazine Caroline Issa, for LK Bennett. With detailed flower embroidery inspired by her recent trip to Thailand, these courts just scream out hippie vibes and summer time glamour. Offset perfectly by a delicate ankle strap and pink heel cap with cute pom poms swinging from the heel, they are definitely a statement shoe. Wear with all black or all white!

Desire: BooHoo embroidered boots

I know Glastonbury is months away but I've already started to think about my outfits! It's definitely part of the fun and atmosphere and I love to play with 70's looks when I'm there. One important and obvious factor however is comfort...these embroidered cowboy style booties from BooHoo are so cute and look comfy. You can pair them with a dress or some cut off shorts and a white t-shirt. They're not for everyone but I saw this style for around £300 in Iceland last June, so for £35 they're a bargain.
