2014 Holiday Wish List

Happy Thanksgiving Eve, y'all! I think November flew by too fast. I remember feeling like Thanksgiving was sooo far away and now, it's here. Well,  it's here tomorrow. So while I'm cooking all day and night, here's my holiday wish list for this year because you really, really wanted to know... right?

1. Two lingerie sets, one from La Perla Studio and one from L'Agent by Agent Provocateur
If you're a regular reader (or follow me on Pinterest), you'll know how much I'm loving La Perla Studio for everyday lingerie. Love the pink accents on this otherwise neutral Anemone set, and I'm really loving how super-pretty this Clementina set looks. I have a pretty basic (not that kind of basic) everyday wardrobe, so I love the idea of knowing that I'm wearing lingerie that's this beautiful under a solid crewneck cashmere sweater. And let's be honest—of course there are more than two lingerie sets on my real wishlist, but these two are the ones I want right now. Like right now.



2. This sick Acne Studios Velocite Shearling Jacket in Black
Sick. So sick. I've been obsessing over this coat for the past few years, and haven't had the guts to just go and buy it yet (hi hefty price tag). But I'm thinking that if this polar vortex is going to keep coming to hit NYC every winter, then I miiiight be able to justify it. But I'm not sure yet. Either way, I'm super excited that Acne Studios came out with an all-black one this year and in lambskin leather at that. I love the suede versions but I feel like the leather is safer, no?


3. Delicate jewels from my favorite Vale Jewelry
I probably visit Vale's site at least 3-4 times a week and just repeatedly look at the same jewels over and over again. I went to their trunk show a couple of weeks ago and tried on almost every ring they have, as well as the Diamond Slice necklace and it was surprisingly gorgeous. So these three are topping my jewelry wishlist right now—all in rose gold, of course. (Also on my jewelry wishlist is a piece of Chanel Fine Jewelry that I'm just going to keep to myself for now...).


Glam it up for not a lot of bucks. Love the chunky, oversized shape of these sunglasses, especially in this iridescent shell tortoise. These are great for everyday sunnies, and the darker grey-ish palette makes them fab even in the winter.


You're probably noticing a pattern by now (black, textures, fleece/shearling). I'm a woman of simple, albeit expensive, tastes. At least I own up to it. Anyway, most of the time when it's freezing out, the heat turns on in my apartment to a degree that I can't control and I'm sitting here in a tank top and shorts sweating profusely. Then there are times when it is just as cold inside as it is outdoors, but the heat doesn't come on because the temperatures haven't dipped below 35. Those times are when I'd love this cozy-looking robe.
