Get Under My Tree

Remember when you were a kid and people would ask: “What did you ask Santa for this year?” Have you noticed that people stop asking you that once you’re an adult? I know, I know, it’s better to give than to receive. No argument there. But why is it cute when kids tell everyone the presents they want, and it’s greedy for a grownup to do the same?

 

I’ve seen a lot of “gift guides” around the style blogosphere recently, but very few wishlists. I don’t think it should be taboo to tell people what’s on your Christmas list! I mean if we were all 9 years old, hanging out on the playground, we would be comparing notes – “Which American Girl doll do you want?” “Well I already have Felicity, but I want her canopy bed.” If anything, we’re more mature now and better equipped to handle jealousy, right?

 

So with that speech out of the way, here are a few things I would be excited to unwrap in a couple weeks! More importantly: What did you ask Santa for this year, little girl? 😉

Yes, my remix challenge is over, and yes, I’m remixing these boots again. I swear it’s not an addiction. I can stop remixing whenever I want.

Anyway, when I got this necklace from Sylca Designs, I felt like it had “Christmas” written all over it! So naturally I wore it on Friday to Circle of Lights in downtown Indianapolis. That’s when they string lights on a big monument so it looks like a giant Christmas tree. The night involves calling four restaurants to get a dinner reservation, sitting in traffic, paying $15 to park, fighting huge crowds of people, and standing outside in the cold…but it’s just so darn festive you don’t really mind.

See?
