J'ai voudrais...et mon chat

I am, as I'm sure many are, a bit of a shopaholic. Not to the degree where I am in debt and buying super expensive things, but I love little more than buying pretties.

However, I am in a position at the moment where I have things I *must* buy. I have a few bills--fortunately, as my mother is kind enough to let me live with her while I work my way through my BA degree--to pay, and about 10 MORE books to buy for school (I already have bought five, it's the pains of being an English Lit major. The books needed are modestly priced, but there's a million of them) as well as whatever I can for tuition (it's gone up AGAIN) and the little bits, like notebooks and parking passes.

Also-just this weekend, my cat got into ANOTHER fight, and developed an abscess on his jaw. He has been to the vet, who gave me instructions to keep draining it and feeding him some antibiotics. So...not as expensive as it could have been, but still not so cheap.

But I have been putting together a "lust list" of things I've been looking at online that I will, most likely, not buy for some time. Or even at all.

On my list are:

• circle lenses, in green. I wear regular contacts anyway, almost daily. However, I like the idea of circle lenses. I have naturally green-blue eyes, and I thought these would be fun for going out. 

• False eyelashes. I will actually buy more of these at some point. I like them for days when I want to look extra fancy, which for me can be any day I don't plan on hitting the gym :) 

• Tights! Glorious, colorful tights! I have, through the blogs of other fashionable young things, developed a serious crush on We Love Colors tights. It won't be remotely cool enough for me to wear them for some time now (it'll be around Halloween when it cools down enough) but I want them--they even have my favorite color, lilac! 

• A skully cameo. They have them all over the place, and I've found one that I quite like at Plasticland.com. They're sweet, without being too girly. 
• On that same note, I'd like more summer-appropriate pink clothes. Somehow, the bulk of my summerwear is black and/or black prints...I'd like more color in my wardrobe. Or blue--blue clothes would be ok too. I just own *so* much black...
