C is for Christmas List 2013

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN. Yep, I'm using unnecessary CAPS Lock and yep, I'm making my annual Christmas list. I LOVE Christmas. If you have learned anything from reading this blog and/or talking to me in person, you know that by now. But for emphasis I feel I should reiterate it year after year. It just makes my heart so warm and full. I saw Christmas (Perhaps Halloween, for I have yet to meet someone in Los Angeles who loves Christmas as much as me. But for happiness sake, let's call say Christmas.) lights on an apartment today and my eyes filled with happy tears. Sigh. I am so excited, I just can't deal. Can you tell? EEK.

Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 Instant Film Camera In pink, pretty please. I need this camera in my life, for instant pictures are 10x better than digital. ALSO I hate waiting for my pictures to be sent in the mail and I like decorating my new, very bare and sad, bedroom walls. I'd also like some film, please and thank you. (Amazon)

Heart of Gold Screen Printed Poster I have a print of gold lips above my bed and think this would make a PERFECT addition. (Etsy)

Bistro Dress in Ridgestripe I've had my eye on this Madewell dress for MONTHS. That's not an exaggeration of time or an inappropriate use of CAPS Lock. I've seriously been eying it forever. Now that it's on sale, it'd really just be silly NOT to get it. You know? Size 6, please. Or 8, because I guess 6 doesn't exist in the black and white version. Oh well. (Madewell)

Gallerist Ponte Dress Hi, my name is Erin and I'm obsessed with Madewell's dresses. They just fit so well and 9 times out of 10 there are hidden pockets. WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR? (Madewell)

Paw Prints Juice Glass(es) I would like 2 of these cat-dorable (Ugh, that was awful. It sounded good in my head. My bad.) glasses. They melt my heart. I have a new-found love for kittens. The fact that I can't have one in my apartment makes me all kinds of sad. So this will have to do. (Anthropologie)

Mairhead Tin - Vanilla & Cedar I know I'm a sucker for pretty much any candle at Anthropologie (Except for the really fruity or mango-y (It's a word) ones. They're yucky.) but this Vanilla & Cedar one is INCREDIBLE. One whiff and I was in love. It reminded me of Christmas and my childhood. (Anthropologie)

Handbag - Golden Brown I've owned a large handful of purses from H&M and out of that large handful, only ONE has broken. Okay, actually two, but the second one was my fault. I put too much crap in it. My bad... (H&M)

Pattern-Weave Skirt This skirt is currently featured in the November issue of Redbook and I gasped at the sight of it. I mean, granted, Hannah Simone is wearing it and she looks gorgeous in everything, but I have faith that I could make it work. And by "make it work" I mean, it looks like a good skirt to twirl in. Size 6. (H&M)

Top in Slub Jersey - Gray I don't know what "slub jersey" is, it sounds like a messy sub sandwich. But I DO know that I love me a basic tee and I love me some gray. Do with that what you will. But do it in a Medium please! (H&M)

Stacking Ring - Crystal Quartz Gemstone in 18K Gold This is so dainty and so dang cute. So, it's pretty much everything I want in a ring. Size 6.5, please. (Etsy)

Vogue US This is one of those obligatory "I should've purchased this months ago, but then rent is due" Christmas list posts. I need to renew my subscription to Vogue. (Vogue)

Metallic Loafers - Gold Ah GAP. How I miss you(r) discount so. I will not miss pretending to fold clothes while flirting with my fellow employee/boyfriend. I will also not miss the mean customers or pretending to offer people GAP cards. I will, however, miss my discount this season. Oh, the discount... Where was I? Yes. Shoes. I like these loafers. Size 8! (GAP)

Two-Tone Cowl Infinity Scarf - Heather Gray I've had a love affair with GAP's infinity scarves way before I became an employee. Oh my gosh, they are the warmest and most comfortable things I've ever worn in my entire 23 years of life. I love this gray one. It looks so cuddly. (GAP)

Starbucks Gift Card I mean, don't even pretend you're surprised by this point. You know? (Starbucks)

Gold iPhone 5s Yep, I'm sticking with a gold theme this year. Blair, my current iPhone, is very slow and sassy. Like, annoyingly slow and sassy. She also is a 16 GB, making her very fragile and weak. I am asking for a gold iPhone 5s (32 GB), pretty please with a cherry (or Apple. Tee hee.) on top. (Apple)
