All I Want for Christmas

All I Want for Christmas

posted in Pretty, Shiny Things |

I love this dress.  Yes, it’s a little promy, but it’s also fun, flirty and flattering to most body types.

These are fantastic handmade silver bracelets you can customize.  Just think of all the creative things you could write on them!  Or simply stamp your name on them.  Because, let’s face it, people like seeing their name on things.  (It’s not just me, right?)

My fashionista co-worker and I have spent many non-billable minutes eyeing these boots, which are cute and on sale, but impractical for LA.

This purse is adorable and makes me look forward to spring.

This may be the perfect light work jacket.  Its military-esquness might even inspire efficiency (although I guess the military isn’t really know for its efficiency).  Unfortunately, one of my work friends and I chipped in to buy it for another work friend, which means I can’t buy it myself.  This is especially unfortunate since this is the only item on the list I can actually afford!  =(

And last but not least, some of my favorite rings from my favorite Czech site.  They remind me a little of Frank Gehry’s designs (which I love), with a slightly more linear edge (if that makes any sense).  Gorgeous as they are though, the cost of shipping makes them merely a pipe dream.  This store alone makes me want to go back to Prague.

    Oooh, cute jacket — that’s the BR one, right? Can’t you buy it, and not wear it to work?

    I thought about it, but unfortunately the jacket’s all out of my size now. I knew I should have gotten it! Darn it, I never regret impulse buys but I always regret not giving in to the impulse to buy!
