My Fabulously *Mostly* Faux Holiday Gift List!






























Hey Everyone!

If you're like me you're almost (or already done) your holiday shopping! Black Friday and Cyber Monday are my days to shop! After clipping coupons and bookmarking shops online the week prior, I totally set myself up to splurge for the entire four day span! Here I've compiled a list of some gifts I'd love to receive and some wishful-not-gonna-happen-unless-I'm-Kim-Kardashian purchases. I'm sure you'll be able to spot the difference!

1.  Joie Somerville Paper Leather Jacket - $748



How absolutely beautiful is this coat? I even love the gray. It's one of Rachel Zoe's picks on Piperlime and I cannot agree more with her. The jacket is loud, but simple all at the same time. It's one of those pieces that you would have for life -- that would just get better with age! The details are absolutely exquisite and the fit would flatter all shapes. Hitting you just above your hips, this jacket sure knows how to work your curves!





2. Christian Louboutin's Pigalle 120 polka-dot pumps -$595



These incredibly sexy heels measuring approximately 5 inches high hold up a classic metallic-silver stitched polka-dot patterned pump. They definitely stay true to Christian Louboutin's iconic black satin pumps with sparkle. I am completely in love with these shoes. Picture it - skinny jeans, a simple top, refined jewelry -- I would let these babies do the talking! They are extremely versatile and allow you to pair them with a variety of wardrobe styles.

  



3. OPI's Skin Teal We Drop - $9
 

This color by OPI comes from their Winter 2010 collection. I'm not really a blue/green lover for my nails, but for some reason I am just so attracted to this color. I love the subtle quality of the blue, but how the deep rich color gives off a very refined appeal. The warmth of the tone reminds me very much of OPI's Lincoln Park After Dark. I know it would be easy to steer clear of an "out of your comfort zone" color, but I have firm beliefs that it will not let you down!





The bag I have my eye on is the smaller version of the Louis Vuitton Bellevue style and I am completely won over by this very expensive monogram embossed patent leather bag. I adore the regal feel and I have dreams of pairing it with simple casual outfits (for some reason I am all about pairing casual outfits with an amazing piece). It's such a statement and for just under $900 it could be all mine. Ha! A girl can dream though right?





5.  Burberry Check Rain Boots - WIN them via Auction on Oohilove.com


 Here I go with the classic style again! I think all gals need a pair of these! They are adorable and - get this - actually functional! Paired with just about anything these shoes can get us where we want to be, but without ruining a pair of heels in the process. And the very best part? You can score these babies for a fraction of the price on Oohilove!

You're just a few bids away from splashing in Burberry!



6.  12 Flash Color Case by Make Up For Ever - $95

I'm sure you've seen this palette before! The 12 shades offer so much versatility and fun. I've seen several bloggers and YouTuber's use this palette, but I can't seem to justify the price tag -- no matter how badly I want it!  These twelve cream shadows can be mixed and matched to create so many different looks. You don't have to be a professional makeup artist to enjoy something this divine!


 


7. Ray-Ban Wayfarer Sunglasses - $195

I love the retro yet modern shape of these sunglasses and out my entire wish list I may just want these the most! Even though I live in New York City I am much more a Charlotte than a Carrie. The styles and shapes I usually go for are tragically classic at times, therefore I am quite surprise how in love I am with these pair of shades!

I would even wear them at night! (Because, you know, the sun never sets on a bad ass! ha!)



All in all I think it's perfectly healthy once in a while to totally online window shop and daydream. With online shops like Oohilove though, we no longer have to drool on our computer screens! You can win fabulous designer bags, shoes, clothes and more for almost nothing!


Thanks for reading!
Tis' the Season!
