Marc by Marc Jacobs - Saving the Birds!

Marc by Marc Jacobs has done it again. Yet another offering of products I'm finding it very hard to resist spending my life's savings on ... Must. Resist. Must. Resist. MUST RESIST!

Any regular readers will be aware of my soft spot for bird-related items, so all these lovely things from Marc by Marc Jacobs have got me weak at the knees (and purse strings... NO! PUT IT AWAY!)

Let's have a peak shall we . . .

Above: Jumbled Birds Tote = £160

Above: Tossed Birds Umbrella = £55. How cute is that handle?!

Above: Tossed Birds Scarf = £175

Above: Love Dove Necklace = £44.31 (Nordstrom)

Above: The bag I've been lusting over for a year now (see this post) is still calling to me *sigh*. Natasha Bag = £375.

Above: Petal to the Metal Wallet = £195

Above: Green Bird Necklace = £37.79 (Nordstrom)

Above: Miss Marc Jacobs Bird Earrings = £24.76 (Nordstrom)

Above: Donna Shopper in Snow Buntin = £120

So what do you think? Do these birds get your heart all a flutter? They certainly do mine, especially the bags and scarf. Resisting is no good, I might have to save up and treat myself to something . . .

Shoegazer Fashion: Marc by Marc Jacobs AW10

Looking at some of the collections from New York and London Fashion Weeks has left me pretty cold so far but I have spotted a few collections I like. Today's post is in tribute to Marc by Marc Jacobs (I know right, when will I get over it??) I view his collection as very flattering, wearable and realistic!

What do you think of this collection? Do you like it? Or maybe think it's too safe?
Please comment! :)

Shoegazer loves: Bags + Birds = BAG LUST!

Oh my. I am in love with a bag again. And again, it's too expensive to own! Woe is me! But... but it's so perfect! It's the exact shade of leather bag I've been after AND it has the most adorable little birds acting as clasps. Oh Marc Jacobs... who knew you'd become my favourite bag pusher??

More affordable is the smaller grey version (£175 on Net A Porter). I can't really justify spending that much on a bag (where's a birthday when you need one??) so I found another way to satisfy my leather+bird cravings (see below). But first, let's all drool over this brilliantly birdy bag.

Rather than spend all the money I should be saving on a bag, I got this lovely belt by NW3 for Hobbs (via ASOS) instead. It has much the same vibe as the Marc by Marc Jacobs bags but is much much more affordable and I'll be able to add a touch of bird-love to many outfits....
