My Holiday Wishlist
Happy holidays!
Is it too early to say that? With Thanksgiving in just a few days, I’m thinking we’re good! This weekend I’m busy Thanksgiving menu planning (we have 3 gatherings to attend!), organizing my gift lists (including my own!) ahead of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, getting a festive mani/pedi, reviewing health benefits with Chris ahead of open enrollment on Monday, bringing a big load of clothes to Goodwill, and washing sheets and towels before we’re occupied with holiday plans the next few weekends. Whew! It’s such a busy time of year, but I’m looking forward to everything the holidays bring … ! Make sure to swing back here for a few more fun posts before the end of the year!

A few notes on my picks …
I’ve wanted these wine glasses forever! I have a beautiful set of stemmed red and white glasses, but nothing stemless for those casual nights at home.
A Le Creuset dutch oven is an iconic piece for the kitchen, and I occasionally come across a recipe that requires one. Now that I’m 3 years into married life, I’m ready for this next level of culinary prowess. If we had the counter space, this would also be on my list!
Winter gloves seem to wear out quickly, and I’m ready for some cashmere accessories that (hopefully) last a little longer and pull together any cold-weather ensemble. I also love these for a gift for mom!
It’s been at least 5 years (probably more) since my last “dressy” winter coat purchase, and the styles I have aren’t quite my style any more. I love the faux fur collar and flattering length on this A&F number! I also love the chic tie-waist detail on this one.
I’m currently craving all things cozy (it’s already a winter wonderland here in Minnesota), and a second pair of UGG slippers are topping the list. I’m looking for a slide-on style as a counterpart to my trusty mocs.
This metallic poche is the perfect mini bag for a concert (Taylor Swift Eras Tour, anyone?), NBA game, or any event that you want to be hands-free, and I’m desperately missing something like this in my collection!
I recently realized I didn’t have any holiday pajamas and promptly bought myself a couple of pairs to wear Christmas morning (and throughout December), including the two linked here. This flannel set is everything—lightweight and the perfect festive tartan.
My winter boot lineup also needs a big … reboot. I’m missing both tall, heavy-duty snow boots for outdoor activities (debating between the Joan of Arctic and Whitney), and a solid shorter-shaft pair that’s easy(ish) to slip on for everyday winter outings (top picks linked above).
My beauty regimen has been super low-maintenance lately, but my hands and lips are already feeling the drying effects of winter. A luxurious hand cream and restorative lip treatment would be a nice addition to my nightstand—and a lovely stocking stuffer!
