Saturday Snack: My Wish List
I've put together a handful of gift guides for others - these are things for me.
Ok, maybe not the *final* word, but one of my last words. These are the things I’d like to receive. I have more than enough, but still, it’s fun to dream.
THE BE ALL END ALL BELT
And it’s by The Row, of course. I love the graphic buckle - I typically don’t like metallic buckles but I’ve been thinking about this one for so long. I just love it. It’s a truly perfect object, and one of those gorgeous finishing touches I’d probably never buy myself but would wear for a lifetime. If you know a true style obsessive, this is a very safe bet. The Row, $610
A PERFECT HALF ZIP
This is the kind of sweater I end up wearing 75% of the winter. It’s great to throw on over jeans, or with a skirt - whatever. The color is beautiful, and the fit is great. It’s men’s, so it’s oversized and slouchy - just right. Sézane, $205
SPF HAND CREAM
This is the kind of highly practical, thoughtful gift I’d love to get. I drive a lot, and I’m very vain, so I’d like to keep one of these in my car at all times. It’s the sort of stocking stuffer I’d very much appreciate. Supergoop, $38
MANOLO BLAHNIK BALLERIMU
I’ve loved this shoe for so long… they’re so simple, so beautiful, and suit my life very well - I almost never wear a shoe I can’t slip on or shove my foot into (no laces or buckles, please). They’re unbelievably elegant, and I know shoes are a weird gift, but I’m a size 40. Manolo Blahnik, $745
A NEW NIGHTGOWN
I’m very much a nightgown girl. I sleep in one every night, but mine has gotten kind of icky from all my skincare products and just overuse. It’s time for a new one. I like Doen’s because they’re super thin and gauzy, but prettier than the utilitarian ones I sometimes wear instead. This is highly practical, but also thrilling. Doen, $178
A PAIR OF SHERMAN FIELD EARRINGS
The Sherman Field designer, Danielle Sherman, is one of my best buddies out here in LA. I spend A LOT of time with her and in her showroom, and every time I go over I put these on. They’re so beautiful, and I know, like, lol dream on (actually if we’re really dreaming on, this Oval Link necklace is truly at the tippy top of my wishlist, but I don’t think I’ll ever be a good enough girl to see that under my tree) but man. They are so beautiful. Sherman Field, $5,550
GLITTER SOCKS
I’m still very much on the sock train. I love to wear glittery socks with my sneakers and jeans, so just a bit of them shows. Very subtle and silly and cute. Sézane, $20
A FUN NEW DUVET COVER
We’ve always just had plain white bedding, but lately I’ve wanted something a little more….fun. I love this one from Hay because the blue color is classic, yet the contrast piping is interesting. It’s silly, but not too. And it’s on clearance. Hay, $58
THE ULTIMATE LEATHER JACKET
I’ve wanted this jacket forever….it’s so special. I tried it on in Paris and fell so hard in love with it. It’s hard to justify since I live in LA and it’s not that cold, but I would love to have this. So I hope you buy it, wear it, and live a leather jacket fantasy for me! By Maline Birger, $1,700
AND THAT’S IT! For now. I think.
