my 2011 christmas list

this year i’ve asked for quite a few books (how-to-be-a-mom books) and things for our kitchen (how do i not own a hand mixer or cooling racks?). but here are a few gems i’d love for my closet.


  1. confession: i already bought this vest ($40). i searched for two months and finally found it in my size and on sale!
  2. this leopard belt is cute, but i’d rather not pay $20 for it.
  3. i’m in love with these leopard loafers ($40).
  4. this sweatshirt was on my list last year, too ($44). it has hidden pockets!

5. this dress could be easily styled as a skirt, too ($40).
6. denim jackets will never be out of style ($50).
7. yes, that is a sewing machine ($80)!

oh yeah, and those winter boots
