wishpot wednesday: tommy and betsey and rebecca - oh my!

A bit of a name-dropping Wishpot Wednesday this week! I couldn't help myself. There are certain designers that have a very solid reputation with me and when I set out to shop online I can't help but be drawn to them. Contrary to the pinkish hues of last week's WW I've managed to stumble back into my typically monochromatic palette choice. Shall I say it one more time? There's nothing so chic as the contrast between black and white!


Snow Leopard Cardi; $68, Nasty Gal
My curiosity over the leopard print trend hasn't died. Combine that with my love of long cardigans and this one's a hit! I could totally see it paired with leather pants, but not on me. I'm not that daring. I would be apt to wear it with leggings, though.


Dome Three-Finger Ring; $18, Nasty Gal
Another trend I've been loving this year are the multiple-finger rings. I don't always know which styles would look good on me - some of them make me feel like I'm wearing brass knuckles. Not fashionable. I love the softness of this one and the pretty little design.


Betsey Johnson Fleur de Lis Studs; $25, Macy's
Betsey is such a rock star. These fleur de lis studs might be my favorite thing she's ever designed. Aren't they fun? Just the perfect way to add a bit of French flair to any look.


Tommy Hilfiger Argyle Sweater Dress; $35.99, Macy's
Some designers have a way of making you feel instantly at home - the fashion version of comfort food, shall we say? They're designers that you're comfortable with, the ones you know you can trust to bring wonderful quality and strong, appealing designs. For me, that's Tommy Hilfiger. And this sweater dress is just the sort of thing I love from him. It's so cute and preppy and fun - and argyle! Why not?


Rebecca Taylor Anchor Striped Crew Sweater; $275, Shopbop
Rebecca Taylor is a new favorite of mine; her designs are strong, minimalist and always comfortable. This sweater plays to my love of stripes, but I can't get enough of the unexpected elements like the long finger-sleeves and the v-neck ribbing.


Splendid Poorboy Cowl Top; $121, Shopbop
Splendid is just that. Sorry, that was cheesy, but it's true! Splendid is splendid. I want to curl up by the fire in this cowl top with a book and a glass of wine. Stylish and comfy!


What's your heart wishing for lately? And do you have any favorite "comfort food" designers?

Love your picks. I'm not even a big leopard print lover and I'm dying over that cardi!

I have so much love for Betsey Johnson. I've been so tempted to run to Macy's lately and treat myself to a piece of her jewelry.

comfort food designers...hmm, i think this will be quite a departure from where you were going with this...but, for me its marchesa.
in the sense, they design how i want to feel. i could get a random dress from marchesa(in my dreams) and be in love with it. to me, they are my comfort food, because its just what i need and it never goes wrong.

i love the grey stripey sweater.

All great choices. I especially love the ring and the Splendid cowl neck top - I would love to own each of those.

I have been dying to get another statement ring and am leaning towards the YSL arty ring.. but I like multi-finger rings too. We'll see!

As for designers... I have some favorites, but I am not wed to one in particular. I think you could guess who I'd choose if I HAD to pick 1! LOL
