2012 Holiday [dream] Wishlist

Christmas/Hanukkah is so close! 
I know that there have been a lot of gift lists being posted on what you should give to people, but I thought it would be interesting to post a list of what would be a nice addition to your gift wishlist this season! (realistic or not... haha) Either way, these will be on my dream wishlist... haha. 

In reality, I never make wishlists, because I like to see what people come up with for me on their own, so this is clearly simply a dream wishlist. But hey, it's fun to dream, right? 

You can ask multiple people to chip in on one gift too! My girlfriends all chipped in and bought me a kindle this year for my birthday- and it's been great :) I love individual gifts, but the thought that they all got together and bought one thing for me really made it special. 

So without further ado.... 


Kate Spade Boutique Stripe Harmony Bag 

Kate Spade Karolina Shoes

Lilly Pulitzer Doreen Dress

Mikimoto Akoya Cultured White Gold Earrings

Women's Bean Boots 8"


Amazon Kindle 



Madewell Chain Minibag 

ZOYA Maya 

Kiel James Patrick Honey Fitz Turk's Head Sailor Bracelet

Aren't all of these just adorable? 


What's on your holiday wishlist this year?

Classic Sweaters = Preppy Love

One of my favourite things about home:



My mom's clothes!

Some of her sweaters/cable knits are just pretty epic, and I love them.
I don't really get to "steal" her clothes per se, but I am allowed to wear them as long as I give them back to her.


How great is this logo/crest thing? 
This is one of my mother's old (ish?) Ralph Lauren Cable knits.
I didn't bring enough shirts, so I had to borrow something from my mother and she gave me this. 
Ahh how did I not know that this existed? haha. 

I'm so excited to go through my mother's old old clothes once I visit my grandparents over winter break! 


Anyone else love mothers' clothes as much as I do? 

Sweater: Ralph Lauren
Corduroys: American Eagle
Pearls: Mikimoto
Nail Polish: ZOYA Moxie

Classically Vickers Bow Collection

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive!!
I've been swamped with work for the past couple of months, but I'm back!

Anyways, I know it's a tad late, but I am in love with the Vickers Bow Collection from Kiel James Patrick. 
They are just so cute. 
Dapper Huey


Muskeget Island Waves

Twiggy


Aren't they just adorable and darling? 
I love the Twiggy, especially since I am such a sucker for pink and navy. 
The concept of bows as a bracelet is something that isn't novel for me- I used to wear bows around my wrists, so the bracelet is just so perfect. Love, love, love!

Which bow bracelets is your favourite?
