If I Were A Rich Wo(Man): Animal House

Welcome to another list of beautiful items that I can't afford. Following on from last week's woodland trend theme, this week's wishlist is based on animals. Critters of all types seem to be popping up in fashion and homewares at the moment and I'm not complaining.

The fox is a a popular woodland motif and one that always seem to be in fashion. I particularly love this Prowling Fox Ring by the very talented jewellery designer Alex Monroe.

It's from his collection The Chase, which features all manner of forest creatures. I'm not sure if I prefer it in gold or silver.

Maybe both?

Now for more of a house pet.

Cheshire Cat White Cuddly Cushion by Rory Dobner - Liberty

This Cheshire Cat White Cuddly Cushion by Rory Dobner for Liberty ties into the ever popular Alice in Wonderland theme. I love the sketched detail. Here's the man at work.

Look, the cat has a hat on!

Still, like the Hare Cushion from last month, £95 is too much for a cushion. I'd be scared to sit on it.


Back to the woods for my next want.

Carousel Pencil Skirt by DB Berdan - Wolf and Badger

The contrast of the stripes and the hare print in this Carousel Pencil Skirt by DB Berdan is fantastic. I also love the colours; it's pastels Jim, but not as we know it.

This is now half price in the Wolf and Badger sale, but it's still a cool £120.


For my final wishlist item I'm moving away from the furry, woodland animals and onto the scuttling, beach dwellers.

Valentino Haute Couture Fall Winter 2013

A golden crab adorns this pearlescent clutch bag from the Valentino Haute Couture Fall Winter 2013 collection. The whole range is ocean themed, lots of octopus. I particularly like this bag because it feels that if you stare into it long enough, you'll see your future.

I suspect that never in my future will  be able to afford this crab.

That's all folks, check back next Friday for more pricey beauties.
