Before we move onto something serious this afternoon (and totally at odds with this tongue in cheek collection of lust-worthy and shamelessly material must-haves,) I thought it would be fun to put together a no holds barred, money-no-object list of ‘I wants’ and then I’d like to hear yours.
It’s always lovely to be treated to something you couldn’t normally splurge on, or perhaps treat yourself to something for a special occasion, but as my father-in-law says (and I don’t always necessarily agree with,) ‘the fun’s in the looking’, and boy did I have fun creating this list 😉
Feast your eyes ladies 🙂
- The penguin hardback classics are popping up everywhere with their quirky cloth bound covers but it’s the The F Scott Fitzgerald collection I’m lusting after, with the deco foil designs in metallic shades to glam up my book case.
- Monica Vinader is a recent obsession of mine, particularly the faceted slices of semi-precious stones she uses for lobe candy – (from Astley Clarke
.)
- It wouldn’t be a Christmas list without a design classic and for my new office, how about this corian and walnut desk from The Conran Shop. Its stylish lines would surely provoke constant inspiration?
- I’m already thinking of spring and pastels will be a big trend, so have a finger party with a stack of candy coloured bands and nuggets of pretty stones from Astley Clarke
- There’s nothing more luxurious than shearling and this jacket is super soft, a stylish shade and insanely warm. Liora Mid-grey shearling jacket, Reiss.
- For the (techy) love of my life, this beautiful iPad sleeve by Mulberry. Only the best for my baby 😉
- To make life with Florence Finds even easier, a Macbook Pro would be a practical but stylish addition to my stocking please Santa, for swift on-the-move editing and lots of Skype face time conversations with everyone from Gemma, to Laura in Canada and my sister in Birmingham.
- And the Red onion haircalf quilted Bayswater. Need I say more? A steal at £1,924.
Just to humour me, and because I know no-body wants to be in work anymore, drop a comment into the box below and leave me your fantasy festive wish list for some fun on the countdown to the holidays 🙂
Love,
Rebecca

*smugness alert*
My fantasy present would be the gold and diamond forget me not ring I saw on astley clarkes site last time you posted about them (its not on there any more)… Oh hang on, I’m already getting that!
*smugness over*
Seriously, nothing is EVER going to top that!
Sorry but I’m a bit overexcited!
So you should be, it was gorgeous!
I did my husband out of diamonds this year with our wedding, but *think* he’s maybe been a bit naughty and bought me a laptop from ‘Santa’. That would have been at the top of my ‘fantasy wishlist!
Either a Chanel clutch or the Grace Kelly Hermes bag.
Too much maybe?!
xoxo
Dear Santa,
Please can I have a pair of these; http://chanel.com/fashion/8-optical-chanel-accessories-6,4#8-oversized-vintage-inspired-optical-acetate-frame-signature-chanel-logo-in-coloured-varnish-on-temples-6,4,10,7,5
and this http://www.rolex.com/en#/rolex-watches/women-lady-datejust-pearlmaster/lady-datejust-pearlmaster-diamonds-and-everose-gold-m80315-0013
and this sofa please (have yet to decide which colour-way) http://www.sofaworkshop.com/sofa/miss-clementine
That is all, for now…xxx
Oh that’s a beautiful watch… does anyone know how much they actually cost?
I’d have this one…
WOW, your watch is stunning. I have rolex, its an old one (I got for my 21st from my hubby) but am really loving the rose gold ones at the moment, may have to settle for a marc jacobs one 😉 x
PS: The gold and diamond one I would imagine is in the region of £15,000…
It’s not my watch! Just one I spied browsing your link. £15K? Wowsers. Maybe Michael Kors then?!
Lol…sorry its been a long week! I really should read this properly…
x
Ahem. I need a new purse and I would really like it to be a pale pink hermes wallet. Also there are some tiffany schlumberger earrings that match my engagement ring… and there’s also a Lanvin dress on Net-A-Porter that I’ve been eyeing off for 2 years…. sigh. Amy, that ring is so gorgeous and congratulations – what a lovely pre-Christmas present 😉
A Vivian Westwood bag

Or something from Lulu Guinness:

or this, to match the black crystal studded one I had at my wedding last year:

*sigh*
Caroline tell Santa to get his butt over to Coggles, they have lots of Lulu Guiness bags in the sale….including a number of the lips clutches 😀
Love the lips bag…
Erm. I would now really like the stacking rings that you’ve posted Rebecca! Have been lusting after stacking rings for quite a while now… but as I gained an extra band this year (wedding), I think it would be a little greedy 😉
The lust list for me contains one item which I don’t think that you can actually buy! I would LOVE the Oversized Alexa from Mulberry… but only if they did it in grey. {please let them do it in this colour one season soon!!}
xoxo
This is my new favourite must-have-soon: http://www.thomaslyte.com/product/eliza-mustard-breuninger-work-handbag/ Think I may be stretching the definition of ‘soon’ though….
If Santa would like to buy me a pair of these Ferragamo beauties, that would be ok too…

Rebecca, I love those earrings!!!

If money were no object (oh how I wish!), I would ask Santa for a grey Balenciaga handbag, a Mulberry Alexa in Oak (though grey sounds good too Katie!), a pair of Ugg slippers, some Sam Edelman boots and a Kitchenaid mixer!
…there’s noting wrong with having TWO handbags on one Christmas list – is there…? 🙂
