Summer Wishlist!

Summer is in the air, dear readers. I sweat bullets every time I step outside, I get to wear shorts all the time, my car is covered in pollen... and I have a job that'll keep me indoors full-time, at least 50 hours a week. I apologize for my unannounced extended absence -- I've been working nonstop and haven't had the brain power to write a post! Alas, I am back and excited to be blogging again.

To celebrate having my brain back (kind of), I am posting my Wishlist for summer lingerie and clothes that'll keep me excited about this gorgeous season.

Cleo "Marcie" bra in Sunshine, $45.18 from Bravissimo
If I can't get any real sunshine, I may as well have a bra the color of sunshine! Aside from the wires being a bit wide for me, the Cleo Marcie is a tried-and-true favorite of mine. It's consistent from season to season in sizing, and it comes in amazing colors such as this beauty!

SugarShape "Ahoi" bikini, 54,90 € from SugarShape
I love SugarShape. You all know this. I haven't ordered from them in awhile, much to my dismay. My brain has been so addled the last few months that I really haven't purchased much in the way of any lingerie, never mind swimwear. It's sad. I need to fix this. I also only have one bikini that fits, and I would love to have a second. The little anchors, the beautiful navy background... I'm in love.

Ann Taylor "Polka Dot Maxi Dress," $129 from Ann Taylor
I know, the price is steep. Maxi dresses are difficult for me, because most are too long. However, I have actually had luck with Ann Taylor's maxi dresses in the past -- I snagged one at an Ann Taylor Factory Store last year that I absolutely adore. It fits my bust, nips in nicely at my waist, and doesn't drag on the ground. Since this can be ordered in three different lengths, it should work well for readers of most heights!

Made in Preston "Floral Playsuit with Mesh," £45.00 from Made in Preston
It has taken me about 6 years to understand the wonder that is a playsuit/romper. And now, I can't stop lusting after this one. The only reason I'm holding back is I'm not sure if it'll be big enough in the bum, and so I continue to suffer with my romper lust.

What are you lusting after, lovely readers?
