I really need to save. It’s so hard at the moment considering I’ve just had to fork out £250 for a part of my car to be replaced and erm… I kinda bought myself a new camera ready for Japan. Honestly I’m going to save up for Japan. I am. I NEED to otherwise I’ll be going to Japan with no sodding money to spend, or eat with. I have 5 months to go until we leave for the holiday and saving needs to happen NOW.
In all honesty though? I already really want at least 2 items on this wish list for work, as well as in general.
I will resist the urge and be good… I need to. 😛
Enough of me wallowing in poor pity, on with the wish list for August.
- Aggretsuko Day/Night Pyjamas (link)
If there is one thing I love buying (and it’s definitely a weakness of mine!) it’s pyjamas and it’s purely because I live in them mostly when I’m at home. Providing I don’t have plans, as soon as I get home from work I’ll get my pyjamas on and get comfortable. These will be perfect for during the summer months, as at the moment I am just purely living in baggy t-shirts and night shirts. EMP has a pretty awesome Aggretsuko line up at the moment, including a couple of hoodies, pyjama bottoms and even some fake Converse.
- Animal Crossing K.K. Slider Sticker by ncdoggGraphics (link)
I LOVE Animal Crossing and I am still stoked about the new one coming out on the Switch in March 2020. I love playing Pocket Camp daily and would love to grab some sort of Animal Crossing merch for when I’m in Japan. I love the “Yo” design of K.K. Slider and although I’ve added it onto this post as a sticker, I would rather love the hoodie or sweater design as I can only imagine it would so comfortable to wear around the house, as well as out and about when running errands.
- Pokemon Holiday Night Kuji Travelling Pouch with Bottles (link)
This is something I’ve had my eye on getting (and in one case winning) since I saw it was announced a couple of months back. I took part in this kuji through YY Kawaii (yykawaiimerch over on Instagram). I’ll be talking about the prizes I won soon, as well as this travelling pouch, which arrived yesterday. Yes, I bought it because I want it for my holiday to Japan, as well as travelling in general. This is a good sized pouch and comes with three generous sized bottles that you can fill with your beauty essentials. I’m already planning what product I’m going to pop in there for travelling with. As I said, I’ll be writing a post all about these goods soon, as well as a little bit of information about kujis, how they work and which amazing ones YY Kawaii has coming up soon!
- Aggretsuko Pencils (link)
I have discovered with my job that I love jotting down notes using pencil… I don’t know why, but I just have! I love Aggretsuko and since season 2 has come onto Netflix (also, they just announced season 3. Who else is excited?!) so I feel merchandise for this is becoming more and more likely everywhere. I don’t need any stationary anytime soon though to be honest. These would just be cool to have whenever I go into meetings and to perk my desk up a little. At the moment I’m using Pusheen pencils… I can’t complain. 😛
- Cath Kidston Stanley Lamp (link)
This isn’t going to be something I buy anytime soon due to the price, but it’s a lamp I will be keeping a close eye on, as I would love it to be a part of my home. I don’t quite know where it would go… Potentially by the sofa in our living room… It’s so damn cute and I love it! I can only assume Stanley is the dog but it’s so gorgeous and you can see a lot of precision went into the design, as it’s just perfect. This is something I’ll keep my eye on during the sales.
- Killstar Amaya Skater Dress (link)
I love a good skater dress, especially one from Killstar. This is from one of their new collections, which represents Japanese school style fashions and manga/anime designs too. This is something I’d love to be able to wear for work but due to the style of the dress (mostly the back with the hanging part) I doubt that would be doable… At least not during the warmer months when I don’t need to wear a cardigan, jumper or my work fleece. I’ll be keeping my eyes on it though, this is something I’ll definitely be picking up in the future.
- Boohoo Cable Boyfriend Button Up Cardigan (link)
I know it’s summer and we in the UK are currently rocking the warm and muggy weather but I am already thinking ahead to the months when the colder weather will be back and I’ll be wanting to snuggle up into something during my shifts at work. My friend Amy (Writing into the Ether) rocks a gorgeous mustard cardigan and she’s inspired me get myself a mustard cardigan, after years of never bothering. I love my burgundy and mustard colours for autumn and winter, and whilst I own loads of mustard jumpers, I haven’t yet picked up a mustard cardigan. I’ve found this one from Boohoo, which I’m going to keep my eye on. I need to venture around more places first, including charity shops. I know what I’m looking for, super soft and baggy so I can be snuggled and cosy!
So those are the items on my wish list for August! I always worry my wish lists are boring, but you guys never seem to say anything other than the complete opposite!
What items do you guys have on your wish lists this month? Make sure to let me know! Hey, let me know which items you’ve picked up this month too!
Until next time, take care all and I hope you’re having a good week so far.
That K K Slider sticker is THE cutest thing 💕
It’s adorable, isn’t it! 😀
Good luck saving for Japan, love the Aggretsuko PJ’s and that lamp is adorable I kinda need it haha! xoxo
Thank you! 😀 Saving is going pretty good to be fair. 🙂 I regret not buying the PJs when they were in stock in my size. 😦
😮 I need that Pokemon Travelling Pouch in my life. It’s cute and the perfect size for cabin bags. 💗 I’ve also been after a mustard cardigan for ages but haven’t found ‘the one yet. I’ll have a look at the Boohoo one you’ve posted here.
It is isn’t it! 😀 I’m so glad I bought it to be honest, I love it so much. ^_^ The only decent cardigan I can find is the Boohoo one, which sucks as I want one that I can look at and try on in store! 😦
Awww YAY! MUSTARD CARDIGANS FOR THE WIN. can’t wait for it to be cold enough to wear it again. It’s my fav.
Also Killstar… Always a good idea. I’ve still!! Not seen Aggretsuko. Must watch
Catch up soon doll 💙
Yay, only 5 months to go!!? That’s awesome! 😀
The Pokemon Holiday Night Kuji was so so adorable! I played too, and I’m really happy with what I won but I totally wanted the travelling pouch & bottles too! Fantastic that you got it 🙂
Awww those Retsuko PJs are super cute (and omgosh I need those pencils in my life!). I really love that cardigan too, it looks so cosy and will be perfect for the colder months! It’s been freezing in the North of England lately and I feel like I need to do some cardigan/jumper shopping soon :’)
Great post as always lovely ❤ x

Aww thank you Sarah! 😀 I can’t wait to take it away with me! 😀 I’m going to take it to London soon when I go for the Pokemon Center. 😀
Yeah it’s starting to go cold now! I ended up getting a cardigan from Sainsburys, as I wasn’t sure what the one would be like from Boohoo. xD
