This year, all I'm really asking for from my friends and family is a bit of money towards an end of school out-of-country experience, which would be a far greater gift than any of this silly stuff.
...But if I was making up a proper Christmas list, hoo boy, I definitely wouldn't have any trouble! And this is just part one... a)
Stella McCartney Perfume, in the 1 oz. purse spray size, right. I LOVE tiny things, and conveniently, tiny versions of things are often cheaper than not-tiny-things. Also, the smaller things are, the more of them you can collect and cram onto every available surface. That's not crazy, that's just practical!
b)
The Biba Experience, so I can start plotting how to turn the interior of my next apartment into an exact replica of the Rainbow Room.
c)
I've crossed my fingers and toes fruitlessly for months now hoping this beautiful lace top by Hearts in My Eyes would go on sale over at Bona Drag. So impractical...and SO DAMN PRETTY.
d)
Nars Body Glow. Maybe I'm being suckered in by all those glossy collages in the Vogue Escapes section, but I just wanna slip this into a straw bag along with a We Are Handsome one piece and jet off to Ipanema. Also I'm a fool for NARS' packaging. Anyways, it's another one of those purchases I could never really justify.
e)
How is it possible that I still don't own an actual copy of this movie???? Enough said.
P.S. I'd love to know what's on your list, real or imaginary, this year!
White Blood Cells was easily one of the most important albums of my mid-teen years (along with the soundtrack to The Royal Tenenbaums and Queen's Greatest Hits...) The White Stripes also hapen to be possibly the most Christmas-appropriate band ever, in terms of color scheme anyways.
My point is: rock out guys, it's the beginning of December!!
I honestly couldn't tell if it was night or day when I woke up this morning, the sky was so dark and ominous. Rain is nice when you can sit inside by a big window and watch it fall on other people...but when you have to shiver on a Q platform waiting for the train to school, eeeeeh, not so much.
After my recent post in which I declared my love for the Eberjey Delirious Bralet, Mariela Rovito, one of the founders of the label, left me this sweet comment:
"Love, love, love how you wrote about our Delirious Bralet. Thanks for being a fan. It's actually one of the "cult favorites" in our collection. Wanted to give your readers access to our Private Sale on Monday. Enter code CyberMonday and get 20% off entire purchase! Do it before 11am EST and get an additional 5%! Happy Turkey Day"
There you go friends, don't say the phrase "tittay rainbow" never did nothin' for you! Make sure you get your orders in over at Eberjey's webshop bright an early on Monday (i.e. tomorrow) morning--unless you wanna get caught doing the no pants dance like Natalia up there... (photo by Nathaniel Goldberg for Vogue Paris found here)
Here's hoping that when I wake up, my throat isn't sore anymore, my nose isn't sniffly, and all this stuff is stowed away safely in my closet. (Actually, while we're at it, can I add "a closet" to this wishlist??)
P.S. You can click the sets to see where it's all from...if you really wanna know ;n )
