If I had a Million Dollars...Dorothy Perkins Edition

As my office job often leaves me bored to tears, you can usually find me doing one of two things: browsing through my Google Reader to catch up on my favorite blogs, or online window shopping. As much as I would love to be able to buy every adorable piece I see (I know you would, too), my bank account is not quite up to par with my wishlist. BUT, if I can't have these things, I at least want to share my favorites with you guys! In short, my online shopping obsession has lead me to create this new, reoccurring item that I will be calling "If I had a million dollars..."

I haven't yet decided if I'll be doing this post on a schedule, or just whenever inspiration strikes, but I will be doing it by retailer. Today's shopping experience? Dorothy Perkins!

Dorothy Perkins can be a hit or miss for us plus gals as they don't have every style in the larger sizes, and they also don't have a specific plus line. I do like, however, that you can search through their stock by size, which makes it easy for us to narrow down which items will work for us. Here's what I would buy, if I had a million dollars to blow that is:

 

1. Grey Tab Pocket Blouse. $46.02 (£29.50) 2. Oatmeal Fur Trim Toggle Coat $70.20 (£45.00)

 

3. Grey Flannel Button Blazer. $31.20 (£20.00) 4. Mocha Pintuck Satin Blouse. $26.52 (£17.00)

5. Camel Belted Hip Coat $62.40 (£40.00) 6. Cream Spot Border Twist Dress $54.60 (£35.00)

Eh? Eh?? It's so unfair, I want all of this!! Most especially, I want polka dotted dress (6.)!!! Give me a cute, casual dress with sleeves, my heart melts. Add the gorgeous pleating detail, and I explode with lust!! This dress is slowwwlllllyyyy sneaking its way off my "want" list, and onto my "must" list! 

Even though I'm usually more partial to bright colors, this season's neutral palette of camels, greys and taupes has really been appealing to me as of late (can you tell by the pieces I pulled?). I think these colors are so sophisticated! Are you loving the neutral trend? What's on your Dorothy Perkins wishlist?

Whenever I order online I always do a few google searches to see if I can find a blogger who's wearing the item I'm coveting. If you own one of the items I feature, let me know! I'd like to post your photos here (and link back to you of course!) so we can all see what the item looks like in real life! I would love to be able to do a follow up for each of these "If I had a million dollars..." posts, but that's up to you, my dear readers, to send me your links/pics :)
