LUXURY ITEMS I NEED IN MY LIFE BUT I'M TOO BUSY BEING POOR AF...

Is there anything more annoying than seeing something you quite like at first, then falling in love and obsessing over it but you just aren't able to get your hands on it? Probably not. This seems to happen to me all the time. Whether it's a pair of shoes that are sold out or a bag I just can't afford, it's becoming a nuisance because once I set my mind on something I want to buy, I don't stop until I get it (however it's a lot easier said than done when they're all priced at £500+) What makes it EVEN WORSE is going on Instagram and seeing all of these famous bloggers/social influencers with the item/s you want, flaunting them to the world. Don't get me wrong I'd be doing the EXACT same if that were me but unless they're willing to let me borrow some money or borrow the item itself then please... stop... it's killing me. This post is going to be a list of all the luxury, high end items I want and NEED in my life that I will (hopefully) get my hands on at least one of them some point down the line. I'll leave links to the websites they're from in case any take your fancy (simply click the pics) but pleaseeeee don't let me know if you've bought any of them for my own sanity's sake...

DISCLAIMER I am aware that most luxury brands still use both animal fur and animal skin and some of the products I've listed do have these so if you are easily offended please don't read on...

LOUIS VUITTON LAUREATE PLATFORM DESERT BOOT

£880

The first time I saw these was on Sarah Ashcroft's Snapchat story.

The majority of people I've shown these to think they're absolutely hideous but if you know me then you know I love any shoe with a chunky, cleated sole and because they're Louis Vuitton, OBVIOUSLY I'm all over them. If I'm going to pay that price for them then people must know that they're LV. If that makes me materialistic then MOVE OVER MADONNA because I'm the new material girl. The subtle use of the LV classic print is perfect because if the boot was covered in the print then I personally think it would cheapen them. Not only are they sooo beautiful but they actually look durable and practical too, making them a lot more worth the ridiculously high price tag. My boyfriend thinks I'm actually insane for wanting to save and spend my money on these and thinks I could put that kind of money towards more important things and although he is actually right and is the only one thinking maturely out of the two of us, I still need to have them in my life so I'd rather use my own money on buying something what people see as ridiculous than my family's money from birthdays and Christmas etc so yeah... oops!

PRADA CAHIER CROCODILE LEATHER BAG £5420

Ok so I'm 99.9% sure I'll never be able to own this bag unless I become rich AF or get myself a sugar daddy to which neither of them is going to happen so I might as well give up with this bag now. I first saw this bag in Harvey Nichols in Edinburgh last year and it has caught my attention ever since.

Every time I walk past Prada my eyes instantly go to either this one or the velvet version of this bag (instead of crocodile leather) so it's meant to be. I'm relying on fate bringing me and this bag together because that's pretty much the only way I'll ever get it UGHHHH...

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN OVERSIZED SNEAKER £360

Now THESE are more within my current budget. I remember wanting these a while back but my size was out of stock so I basically forgot about them. However I recently saw these on a random girl when I was in Edinburgh and the obsession came back and THEY FINALLY HAVE MY SIZE IN STOCK! Pay day is coming up and I know these will be mine very shortly. Once again, I'm a sucker for a chunky sole and I apologise to my bank card in advance...

LOUIS VUITTON PALM SPRINGS BACK PACK MINI £1360

Backpacks over handbags ANY DAY OF THE WEEK.

I saw this bag on the back of almost every girl at Coachella. Every blogger/influencer Insta pic had this bag in it because it's the Palm Springs Mini and if you didn't already know, Coachella is held in Palm Springs. Clever... The thin straps and small body makes this bag really cute and feminine and it instantly caught my attention along with every other basic bitch in the world. NEED NEED NEED!!

VERSACE PALAZZO EVENING CLUTCH £610

I'm always drawn to pastel colours so this stunning chain clutch from Versace is the dream.

They have this bag is a few different colours; including baby pink but this blue colour is the only one on sale for £305 (RRP £610)... BARGAIN!! It is sold out but if it were in stock and I actually had the funds to spend on it, this bag would defoooo be mine! SOOOO STUNNING.

LOUIS VUITTON KEEPALL BANDOULIÈRE 50 £1190

I've always wanted something from the luggage range at Louis Vuitton. When I see people with a LV holdall and matching suitcase I think they 100% have their life together (or at least look like they do!)

#GOALS This hint of baby pink with the classic LV print makes the bag really feminine and breaks down the bag a little bit and doesn't draw too much attention to the print, which can look a bit much and quite fake on some LV items.

But yeah if someone can get me this for my birthday (August 15th hint hint) I'd be so grateful x

YSL SUNSET CHAIN WALLET £1090

I've always loved the look of YSL bags. There's something so classy and elegant about this chain bag and I'm obsesseddddd.

Once again, I've been drawn to pastel colours but I don't even care.

Also, the fact you can wear this bag at two different lengths is just adding to my obsession. This bag would be perfect for everyday or evening wear so I think it would be a good investment!

GUCCI ROUND-FRAME METAL SUNGLASSES £390

Whenever I have a holiday coming up, I always buy myself far too many sunglasses as I plan on bringing them all but end up with only the one pair because I can't fit the rest in my luggage. I'll never learn. However, I'm now starting to think that if I bought myself a pricey pair of sunnies then I won't want to be spending more money on other pairs? Maybe? Hopefully? These Gucci sunglasses are the cutest pair I've ever seen!

The pink tinted lenses and the round frame makes them different to any other pair on sunglasses I've owned. All around each eye frame it says the words, "L'AVEUGLE PAR AMOUR" which translates to, "THE BLIND LOVE".

Not quite sure I can spend almost £400 on one pair of sunglasses though. I would but I'm living the poor life rn...

CARTIER JUSTE UN CLOU BRACELET

£10500

If anyone has their own Cartier bracelet then they are the definition of life goals.

I'd be lucky enough to own anything from Cartier but I loveeee these bracelets! The price shocked me when I first heard about these bracelets because of how plain and simple a lot of them are. Obviously the ones that are plain gold and thinner are the cheaper ones (when I say cheap they're still £6050) and the ones that have diamonds in them and are thicker are the pricier ones (most expensive at £41800 WHATTTT?!) Once again, this is another luxury item I'll never own but we all have dreams...

YEEZY SUPPLY SEASON 6 (PRICES VARY)

Kim modelled a total of 9 full outfits from Kanye West's clothing line, "Yeezy Supply Season 6" in just one day.

HOW?! Wife goals or what?

There wasn't one outfit I didn't come close to disliking and soon became obsessed with every single piece so props to Kanye and also Kim's stylist! Every season of Yeezy has been quite neutral when it comes to the colour scheme, usually leaning toward the earthy tones. It makes the pieces look so casual but also chic at the same time and I'm living tbh... I was on the fence on whether or not to add Kanye's clothing line to this post as I don't see it as a luxury brand, just a really expensive one (there is a difference!) but I decided to add it anyway because why not? Kim K, you are now back to being my favourite Kardashian/Jenner sister. Sorry Kylie, I still love you but your older sister is showing you the f UP!! . . . . . . So that's all the luxury items I want in my life... Not asking for much right?? I obviously know that I'll most likely never own 99.9% of these items but it's nice to look at pricey things and dream.

I am aware that the vast majority of these pieces are bags and shoes, however if you know me already then you'll know that they are

what I always spend my money on, expensive or not! Also, I find it hard to find one off, luxury clothing pieces because if they become a trend then so many high street and online stores bring out their own versions that look IDENTICAL for just a fraction of the price so why on earth would I spend that kind of money?? I'll most likely keep updating this post with my new favourites but this is all for now!

Hope you enjoyed reading, xoxo
