Currently Loving | Birthday Edition

It may seem a little silly to have any sort of wishlist at my age, but let’s be real, I keep a mental and physical list of things that have either caught my eye or I haven’t gotten around to purchasing yet, so coming up with a birthday wishlist is not a hard task! My birthday is next week and I’m 100% sure that gifts have already been purchased (cough, cough Gary), but just in case someone was still searching for ideas, I’ve come up with a few below! 

New pair of sunnies//I have one pair of sunglasses that I wear everywhere except for the beach, they are just not beach sunnies, but these Target oneslook much higher end and I wouldn’t be as sad to scratch up at $15! 

New Fragrance// I’ve been searching high and low for a new fragrance since I’ve finished out my Light Blue and the only one that has come close to doing anything for me is Daisy by Marc Jacobs! I just love how fresh and light it is! 

Coffee Table Addition//Ever since finishing Elements of Style, I’m eager to find a new coffee table book and this Pairs In Color one fits the bill and I mean who doesn’t want to flip through gorgeous photos of Paris.  

New Baubles// I’m pretty set with necklaces and earrings at the moment…shocker I know! What I really could do with are some more rings. I’ve got my eye on this mason ring & this triple stack! Both are different, which is why I think I like them! 

Phone Charger//I’ve had this on my wish list for quite some time and just haven’t had the chance to get it, but this is really great because my phone has been running on almost empty the last few weeks and having the back up battery would be ideal! 

Stationary// I’ve finally reached the end of my thank you notes that I was gifted at my bridal shower and would love this set from Stephanie’s shop! They are almost too pretty to use, but knowing myself I’ll use them sparingly! 

The Gift that keeps on giving// I’m talking about gift cards! I honestly don’t mind one bit if I’m gifted a card because well I get to choose when I want to do an activity and treat myself. Ones I always love are to Flywheel and MiniLuxe! 

Oh, remember that Valentine’s Day Gift Guide, from me to me…well I may or may not have just bought this gorgeous little pretty yesterday and I can’t wait to take her out on the town! Yes, I refer to items as he or she…tell me I’m not alone! 

Do you still like to give your family a gift guide or do you like to be surprised? Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday! 

xo,

    Woohoo, almost birthday week! That's so exciting! Love your pretty wish list, lady! Have you tried Armani's Acqua di Gio for women? It's similar to light blue but, has a lil more weight to the smell if that makes sense.

    I love those rings! Rings are the one thing I don't really have much of. I just wear my wedding stuff and then a Claddagh. I should really mix it up. I got a backup battery charger for Christmas and it has been clutch on days when I'm traveling or out of the house for a long time.

    I totally refer to things as he or she too, so you're not alone πŸ˜‰ and I *hate* feeling guilty when other people buy me things because it's usually not what I'd pick for myself (because I'm picky, I know that, I'm sorry!) and I don't want it to go to waste BUT I also can't stand having things I don't use or love in my home. So I give people who know me very well a little list and everyone else? I tell them tea and candles if they insist on buying me something. Nail polish works too, but there's always the risk of duping a bottle since I have so many haha.
