My autumn wishlist

Autumn is here and like every autumn I have this huuuge urge to make wish lists. So here are my currents obsessions:

1. Steve Madden Stockhlm Boots To say I have a mild obsession with these would be an understatement of the century. I've been eyeing them for few months now. Unfortunately, Steve Madden doesn't ship to Slovakia (which might have not been such a problem), but they don't accept any cards other than US or Canadian. AND they don't sell these anywhere BUT on stevemadden site. The more I can't have them, the more I want them! And when my man told me: it's just shoes, honey - he got the evilest eye ever. 'nuff said. 2. Michael Kors Watch Let's just say I have only a silver watch and thus I have to eschew golden accessories. With these I wouldn't face this problem. (Yeah, to have my problems... ;) ) 3. Peter Watson's Great Divide Yes, there is a book on this list. Yes, it is nonfiction. Yes, I want it bad. 4. VS Suede Pumps I don't even know how many times I searched for gray suede pumps on amazon. And all of a sudden Victoria's Secret has them. Another reason to love them. (Not that I need any more of those :) ) 5. Ice Skates There is a new ice rink in Nitra and I MUST get a chance to skate this year. And since the last pair of ice skates I bought are in Moscow, I need a new ones. 6. Cable sweater Red, navy blue or dove-gray - it doesn't matter, I want me some cable knit sweater this autumn. 7. Belt I need me some serious belts! - since I lost the belly fat ALL my belts are useless and this one is called Valkyrie (the name of my first car) so it's very fitting. 8. Navy bracelets The most amazing Kiel James Patrick merchandise to remember the summer in the dreary winter months. They are all SO gorgeous. 9. Espresso cups Finally, we have a great espresso machine and the best coffee in Slovakia I could find. And now I really want some beautiful espresso cups, too. These come in many different colors and I am going to buy them all next week in Prague. Jupiii. 10. Apron Yep, it's an apron. And with tour eiffels. With the amount of cooking I am doing these last few months, I think I deserve to be pretty in the kitchen. 

Packages... yay!!!

Is there something more exciting than receiving a package in the mail? Well, I am sure there are many more exciting things, but I just love getting packages. Today, I got two.

Aforementioned books. I just love these covers. Don't judge the book by its cover? Meh, I always do.

And then my big package from Gap. The best way to assuage my guilt from the purchase? I asked my mom if she doesn't want something too. MUA HA HA (evil laugh).

My gorgeous suede moccasins. I can't wait for the spring to come. And I can't wait for the trip to Italy in April, there are going to be my go to walking shoes. There are incredibly soft and comfy. And cute!

The worst of days and the best of days

Today I got these puppies in the mail - the final gifts of this (last) year's Christmas. It's nice to stretch the Xmas season :) Two of them are my man's and one of them is mine. Aaaand of course it's the lemons one. 

And boy oh boy is life giving me lemons lately. Unfortunately, I'm not always able to see the funny side of it.

Today, I managed to be nice to - no one! As far as improving my own character goes, this day could be considered a huge step back. I was grumpy, grouchy and generally mean. And I know I have a large number of reasons to be grumpy, but does it really make it better?  And then I just feel even more miserable for being mean to people who don't deserve it.

But we'll see how tomorrow goes, maybe something will change. I have a big job interview tomorrow. It will actually be my FIRST real job interview. (The perks of being self-employed). The reason I was called on this thing by a headhunter is that they are looking for somebody with fluent English, fluent Russian and financial background. And obviously there isn't a lot of us. (Mind you, but my fluent Russian is more of a rusty Russian). So these last few weeks I tried to juggle my accounting firm, my e-shop with clothes AND I tried to dust my Russian in the evenings. No wonder I am exhausted and cranky. 

Well, wish me luck!

A gorgeous new coat

A few months back I put together my autumn wish list. About three weeks ago I was browsing Victoria's Secret's online shop when I found out that the coat I dreamed about for years and years... (OK, only one year to be precise) was on sale. I had no other choice - I had to get it! (I also got this sweet lip-gloss called Minty Kiss, so I could get some serious discount!) It arrived yesterday and today I literally begged my man to take the pictures. 

It's fluffy, white, military, gorgeous and I can't wait for the winter to begin so I can wear it. Meanwhile I'll just wear my lip-gloss and annoy my man with minty kisses he can't rub off.
