Christmas Wish List

As much as everyone will tell you that Christmas is not about receiving presents, I must admit that as a fashion lover, there are bound to be a couple of things on my wish list.  I don't have specific items that I want, but rather general pieces.  How materialistic of me, I know!  But spare me...

1) A leather jacket.  I've been looking everywhere for the perfect affordable leather jacket that is somewhat edgy, but at the same time classic.  I also don't want those leather jackets with any fabric; I want a full leather jacket.  And it must be a leather jacket, not a polyurethane jacket.  They're called leather jackets for a reason.  Wow, I'm picky.
2) A wool jacket.  A camel coat would be very nice, but any neutral is perfect.  Preferably double-breasted and expertly tailored.
3) A classic tan trenchcoat.
4) A nice leather handbag.  I've got leather mini cross-body bags, but an actual handbag would be nice!
5) A pair of feminine, slouchy shorts.
6) And finally this is something I've wanted ever since I started following fashion: a superpower that would allow me to look at something in a fashion magazine and have it magically appear in front of me (in my size, and without any economical or social repercussions).  Hey, a girl can dream, can't she?
But in the end, Christmas really is about spending time with the family, appreciating life and all the joy that life brings, and I hope that when you're done opening presents, you'll take the time to remember that.  I wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

  8. you said that those jewelry are not exactly your personal style, well I can see from that wish list that your style is a little bit elegant and lots of basics! I like it too (; but adding some twist to your look some times doesn't harm.

    xoxo.

  19. @stylemefab: Yes, if I do happen to get #6, all the others would be irrelevant!

    @Hadas: You summed up my personal style perfectly! But you're right, adding a twist never hurts!

  21. Nice wish list. And who doesn't want that fashion superpower? Seriously, WAY cool.
    I agree with you though, Christmas is made special by the company you keep. I'm just happy to have spent it with my family, especially my dad, who I don't get to see very often. Life is good! And my new Jeffrey Campbells don't hurt either ;)
