i LOVE christmas! it's pretty safe to assume any time specifically designated for excessive eating and drinking, parties and sharing nice things with each other will always go down well in my world, but there's still a magic to the season that hasn't yet been clouded by all the cynicism and bitterness that has become routine alongside it.
now it's officially christmas (yay!), i've drawn up a wishlist for the parentals to peruse, and despite knowing full well that most of it will remain locked in the realms of fantasy, my enthusiasm for coveting trinkets hasn't subsided. there's probably a lesson in here somewhere about craving too many luxury goods at a family time but as far as i'm concerned, christmas is a safe haven for magpies and treat-lovers like me. long may it's opulence reign!
so this is a condensed version of my 2009 list - some of it realistic, others so unlikely there's really not much point including them, save for a desire to share common lustful grounds. enjoy!

polo boot, £295, toast (toast.co.uk)
in my quest to find a pair of solid, hardworking winter boots i've come across a few beauties (most notably, a lovely pair of tan knee-highs in monsoon of all places), but none have ever (ever) compared to these. the whole toast a/w 09 catalogue is divine anyway but oh, everything about this pair makes me cry a little inside at their unattainability.
emerald suede bayswater clutch, £495, mulberry (mulberry.com
if only. i've tried telling myself that my purple patent bayswater-esque bag of joy from tkmax is decent enough until the happy day i can afford a real one arrives (it will come, right?), but it really isn't sufficient. sigh
christmas candy gift box, £16.50, lush
mm, lushy goodness. we're slightly more in the realms of possibility now - at least smelling nice isn't hugely expensive!
studded leather driving gloves, £28, warehouseas i near the end of my driving lessons (test in january, eep!), i'm thinking more and more about saving up for a car of my own (where i'll get the money from is currently beyond me, however). and this means thinking about driving accessories! gloves are of course an essential part of the modern lady's motoring paraphenalia, and who could resist a lovely pair like these? (or, y'know, they're nice to look at and will keep my fingers nice and warm while waiting for the bus)
screen burn, £4, amazonholiday reading from the master of funny is a must!
and not forgetting a load of socks and sweeties for good measure! i can't wait!
