Today, I’m linking up with Zelle and Elise for the first week of the “these are a few of my favorite things” holiday linkup party! Today is all about Christmas wish lists and I came up with a few items that I wouldn’t mind finding wrapped under the tree! Honestly, I don’t have any “have-to-have” items this year (well, other than a black handbag) so I’d be happy with whatever Santa brings, but I’ll go ahead and take you through my list!
I currently only own two watches and would love to keep the collection growing. I tried on this Kate Spade watch at Nordstrom the other week and it just looked so great on my wrist. I love the leather strap with the pop of gold- classy and chic!
My hair dryer isn’t broken, but I know it doesn’t work quite as well as it used to. I definitely notice a difference when I use my roommates because it takes much less time to dry my hair. Any recommendations on a good quality dryer under $50 are welcome!
I got a sample of the Cartier Zeste de Soleil perfume and it smells ah-mazing! I also love the scent of the new Daisy Dream by Marc Jacobs (and it comes in a rollerball!). What girl doesn’t love new perfume?
I have been wanting some new gloves for a while and these leather tech gloves are a must (since the pairs I own aren’t “textable”). I love the two-toned look of these from Nordstrom.
My top item on the list would have to be a black Tory Burch bag (Santa, I’ve been really good this year!). I saw the Thea fold-over clutch the other day and fell in love. It has a short chain for when you want to be hands free and also a removable strap if you want to use it as a crossbody. Basically, it’s the perfect black clutch. However, I have also been eyeing the Mini Robinson tote… decisions decisions!
I don’t have any shoes that I would wear in the rain or snow so I wouldn’t mind to get a pair of Hunter boots. They look especially cute with the little knitted boot socks! From what I hear, the “packable” ones are lighter and more comfortable. Any advice?
I love mostly everything by Kendra Scott and have been eyeing one of these Rayne necklaces for a while. I actually just got one in my RocksBox yesterday, but am still lusting over the turquoise one!
Phew… that wasn’t too long was it? Hopefully Santa (who takes the form of multiple people this time of year) is reading this post in case he needs any ideas. I would love to hear what your must-have items are for this holiday season and please let me know if there are any gift guides you’d like me to put together. Have a great Tuesday 🙂

I've been lusting after a pair of hunter boots for years. And every time it's dumping down rain outside i swear I'm just going to bite the bullet and get a pair!

I love your wish list!! I'm with you and don't really have anything that I have to have, but a watch is always on the list!! I need to go smell the Cartier perfume…I mean if it smells half as good as how beautiful their rings are – I'm sold!! xo
P!nky says
What a fabulous list, lady! I love your taste. I need to smell the Cartier perfume, I need a new scent!

Great list. The watch is perfect! So simply and feminine. And of course you can't go wrong with Hunters.
Jillian says

Kate says
I've been swooning over that KS watch too! I have the BaByliss Pro BAB2000 Ceramix Xtreme Dryer (copied right from my order on amazon ha!) and I love it! I've used it for over 2 years and still works perfectly. My hairdresser used it on me once and it was awesome so I went out and got it. I know they can be pricy so I found mine on Amazon for about $40!
Kait says
LOVE the watch!! I discovered Kendra Scott a few months back and love her line! Have a great week!
Stephanie {Newlyweds:North} says
I've had my eye on that zebra dish forever…..might be time to bite the bullet!
Eloquently Emily says
LOVE that Kate Spade watch! I'm asking for a Kate Spade watch as well and it also has the pearl background! Have a great week love !

i love hunter boots
Leah @ Everyday Love says
Hunters have been on my list for years, I just can't bring myself to buy them. I don't think I'd get much use from them living in Florida.
Meghan @ Southern Belle Secrets says
Oh I love the black Tory bag on your list too! Great minds think alike. My hair dryer is totally on its way to the great salon in the sky as well and I'm hoping I get a new cone for christmas because that's something that's never fun to buy yourself.
xoxo,

Katy @ Organized Chaos says
I've been eyeing that Gorjana ring for a while! It's definitely on my wishlist this year too!
Carly Blogs Here says
A new perfume is always a great gift to receive– I've never smelled that one but I really like Daisy dream too! Love the Kate Spade watch and I should probably add a pair of leather gloves to my list too- those look so nice!
Ashley Eckenbrecht {Virginia Sweet} says
Love every item on your list! I have the Hot Tools hairdryer, and I do love it! Don't forget that Ulta always has $3.50 off coupons and every few weeks they have 20% off…that's when I got mine! xoxo

I was just thinking to myself this morning, as my icicle hands were gripping my steering wheel, that I need a pair of "leather" texting gloves this season. Really liking those on your list. Love that watch, too! Very simple and classic.
