CRAVINGS: recently bought.

Ok, so I’ve been shopping. As you guys know, I am all about the cost-per-wear principle, so I believe in splurging every once in a while, but also making sure that the pieces I spend a lot of money on are things I really love and wear a ton! Lowers the cost-per-wear and in the end I pay less per wear for my Valentino bag in comparison to a cheaper piece bought and only worn a handful of times. And since February is my birthday month, I treated myself to 5 pieces that have been on my wishlist for a while now and all of a sudden all crossed my path during the past two weeks.

• Zimmermann Henna floating fringe playsuit: For every beachy vacation during the past year or so, I’ve dreamt of owning one of those pretty Zimmermann rompers. However, they come at a steep price and I simply couldn’t get myself to spend the money – especially without trying it on first. Well, birthdays call for special investments and I decided to treat myself when I spotted it right here in Vienna at inked. Love at first try and now I am counting the days until I get to wear it! (12 to be exact.)

• Anine Bing v-neck shirt & lace bra: Just about every recent wishlist over on The Daily Dose has included one of Anine Bing’s lace bras. Especially paired with a deep v-neck shirt it is pure perfection – trust me. I know I’ll be stocking up on the white version as well before Summer rolls around.

• Aquazzura Holli heels: Ok, so before you guys think I am crazy – I had a giftcard to Farfetch and couldn’t resist these beauties! I love the new interpretation of the most iconic Aquazzura heels and flats, and am currently waiting for the package to arrive. Due to the more sturdy heel, I think these should actually be fairly comfortable. Of course, I’ll keep you updated.

• Saint Laurent wallet: Huge wallets used to be the thing. I still remember how happy I was about the Miu Miu wallet that my parents got me for Christmas a few years ago. Well, turns out the smaller the bags get, the harder it becomes to carry a big wallet. Recently I literally just had a little cardholder that was bursting out of all seams, but with this Saint Laurent wallet that problem should be solved. I got the white version of this one.
