My current Depop wishlist is growing by the hour, there are so many clothes that I'm inspired by and loving at the moment. I'm still sticking with a style that mixes the 90s and early 2000s with a retro 70s vibe and beginning to transform my closet into my dream style. Recently, I've been loving funky coloured turtlenecks, something I've never really worn before. Bright green, yellow, blue and orange. I recently picked up a yellow turtleneck with big flared sleeves from another Depop seller, which I can't wait to style. I love layering pieces over turtlenecks too, a chunky vest or tee shirt looks so nice. It's a great way to add another element to any look and layer some of your favourite summer pieces, whilst still staying warm this winter.

I'm also obsessed with flared sleeves (what else is new), especially those that could be suitable for the Fleetwood Mac concert in September. Flared sleeves add such a funky retro twist to any outfit, even when paired with more modern pieces like a grommet belt. I love the balance between these two styles and I've curated twelve of my favourite pieces at the moment for you to drool over too. I am seriously tempted by that green stripey turtleneck...watch this space.

Vintage Green Striped Turtleneck - $18.25 nzd
The nicest turtleneck I've ever seen, I love the different shades of green and the slightly cropped cut, which would make it super easy to style with high waisted pants. I would love to layer different tee shirts and vests over this piece and match earrings to the different shades of green. Someone should really buy this before I do.

Green Juicy Couture Terry Cloth Dress - $63.87 nzd
This piece is a lot more pricey but very cool. I wouldn't usually be the first person to jump at a Juicy Couture item, but I love this piece. The fabric is a green terry cloth with a funky retro pattern. This dress is the perfect mix of 90s with 60s style and would look so good paired with some big chunky brown boots.

Vintage Brown Suede Boots - $18.25 nzd
I'm absolutely in love with these chunky suede boots and so sad they're several sizes too small for me. For only $18.25 nzd, these boots are a crazy good price and would look amazing with any retro style outfit, especially a maxi dress with big flared sleeves.

Pink Handmade Fluffy Flower Earrings - $8.00 nzd
These handmade earrings are so cute, super cheap and local, so no expensive shipping costs! Handmade by a Kiwi seller, these fluffy flower earrings would look so good with a pink-themed outfit and are a super unique accessory.

Brown Gypsy Bell Sleeve Top - $39.54 nzd
Probably my dream top and a serious candidate for the Fleetwood Mac outfit! I would style this amazing flared sleeve shirt tucked into some high-waisted flares with my big chunky boots. The sleeves are so floaty and pretty and I love the neutral earthy colour scheme that would go with just about anything.

Pink 1970s Striped Flares - $98.84 nzd
Such amazing vintage flares from America, they're fairly expensive but so worth it, if they're your size. These would be the perfect pair of statement pants and would look amazing with a simple white floaty top and big boots. I love groovy pants like these and they're great for special occasions, as they can be dressed up really easily.

Vintage 1970s Great Wall Tee - $182.48 nzd
Although I would never fork out this kind of cash for a tee shirt, I so wish that I could. This epic vintage 70s baby tee is so cute and would look amazing with a funky patterned collared shirt underneath. Made from a terry cloth material, with vintage green and red 'I have climbed the great wall' text across it.

90s Does 70s Mesh Daisy Dress - $31.93 nzd
My Depop curation wouldn't be complete without a classic 90s does 70s piece. This mesh mini dress is so cute and has the funkiest colour scheme. If I owned this piece, I would style it with a white collared shirt underneath and some brightly coloured tights.

Acrylic Retro Daisy Earrings - $15.44 nzd
For a cheaper equivalent to my favourite MindFlowers earrings, these acrylic daisies are such a good statement accessory. I love any retro floral earrings and these are some of my favourites. With a simple colour palette, you could style these earrings with literally any outfit.

Groovy 1970s Bright Green Shorts - $22.81 nzd
If I suited big baggy shorts and I was brave enough to style them, I would wear these every day! These shorts would be a great statement piece, with a flared sleeve shirt tucked in and some platform sandals for a retro summery look. This bright green colour is one of my absolute favourites and goes so well with orange and yellow accessories.

Brown Patchwork Off The Shoulder Bell Sleeve Top - $38.61 nzd
Another possible candidate for the concert, I adore the vintage patchwork design on this shirt, and although I'm not usually a fan of off the shoulder tops, I love it in this context. Then, of course, it has big bell sleeves, what more could I ask for?

Slime Green Knit Tank - $35.00 nzd
I would love to style this green knitted tank over a collared shirt, especially one with a crazy bright pattern. I love having simple basics like this in my closet because they're so great for layering or throwing on when you can't be bothered putting too much effort into a look. Plus, this slime green colour is an absolute dream.
