YELLOW FEVER

So, this morning I woke up to a foggy abyss which made wish for summer. Instead, of waiting for that yellow loveliness we call 'sunshine', I just made my own. For me, most of these are just lustings as my job situation is negative i.e I don't actually have one. Sympathies on a postcard, eh! But nonetheless, at least this gives me something pretty to look at after hours spent trawling the ether for jobs.

1. Yves Saint Laurent Nail Lacquer in Surreal Yellow
2. Retro Table Lamp (with free shipping...bonus)
3. Yellow Gold Bow Ring by Imogen Belfield
4. H by Hudson Tatton Yellow Shoes
5. Chantal Yellow Bridge Kettle
6. Rag & Bone Sliver Tuxedo Crepe Blazer
