Honestly,
most of my Christmas list was home goods. As I’m getting older, I’m starting to
ask for stuff for around the house because I genuinely don’t know when I’ll be
moving out. So my list consisted for cookbooks, fairy lights, a Swiffer and
small kitchen goodies like tea towels.
However, there are some clothing and
accessory items that I’m currently loving so I thought I would share them today
(they’re also things that I honestly never afford, but love anyways).
As per usual, my love for Gap’s winter items
is strong. How cute is this sweater? Plus it would be so warm. I would totally wear this with leggings and running shoes
to run errands or with a pair of jeans to a casual restaurant.
Seriously… Gap fit has been killing it this year with their cute
gear. This is so adorable for days when it’s chilly enough for a jacket but
warm enough that you don’t need a parka. It would look so cute with a simple
knit scarf and messy bun.
In the past year or two, I’ve become all
about comfort. When I’m at home, it’s usually my favourite t-shirt, favourite leggings or track pants and a pair
of slippers. I’m loving this jacket to throw on over top for when I’m a
touch cold… just kidding I’m almost always cold and wrapped in five blankets.
Either way, this is adorable.
As I mentioned above, I’m all about
comfort! Roots is my go-to comfort clothes. How cute is this sweater? It’s a
zip-up hoodie, but the details are so adorable. P.S. instead of linking them separately,
this would go wonderful with a pair of Roots
leggings – another item on the wish list.
Until the age of about 19, I used to think
that stripes were the devil because of that horrible myth they made you look bigger. Now, they’re my go-to. I’m
loving longer sweaters. I’m so thankful that duster sweaters are coming back in
style, which means that I have more of an excuse for leggings. How cute is this
striped cardigan from Old Navy?
A second midi cardigan, my oh my! I
actually featured this one on my mom gift guide. I keep looking at it for
myself, though. It’s just so cute and looks so cozy.
When I first saw these jackets a few years
ago, I thought ugh. However, one of
my friends pointed out that it gave her serious season one Rory Gilmore vibes.
Ever since, I’ve wanted one.
I love this jacket. I’ve been wanting a
simple beige wool coat for a long time. Plus it’s under $75!
Over the past few years, I have struggled
to find a trend that I’m head over heels for. I hate crop tops, lace up
anything, the 90’s grunge, etc. However, I have fallen super hard for bell
sleeves. If I could own everything from Anthropologie, I would. Unfortunately
that’s not in my budget. I am super digging this bell-sleeve top though. So
simple, yet so classic. Plus it’s a turtleneck and you can never go wrong with
a turtleneck!
Like Anthropologie, Madewell is another
store that I’m loving but could never justify spending the money with my
current budget. I do love this bell-sleeve tee. Stripes and bell sleeves?
Totally up my alley!
I’m not 100% if they’re the exact pair that
I borrowed, but back in the summer, I wore a pair of my sister’s track pants
after she picked up after drinks with my friends. These pants are almost
identical, and I have literally had day dreams about them ever since. Plus,
they’re under $35!
Uh yeah… how beautiful is this scarf? I’m
especially loving the Crimson.
I saw these at Indigo a few months ago and
fell in love. The #1 colour on my list is Henna, but also love the ink and forest. Definitely pricey, but definitely
worth it. The reviews for these bad boys are awesome.
Again… another Matt & Nat bag. I could
honestly spend hours looking at them in Indigo. I’m loving this bag in carbon,
as well as black and ink.
You know those times you wish you hadn’t
discovered a brand because you love their products so much? That’s exactly how
I feel about Daniel Wellington. I discovered them about a year and a half ago
via Tumblr and have been obsessed since.
If my girl Sam saw these on here, she’d
flip – she always tells me how much she hates Adidas originals. I personally
love this shoes and would get so much use out of them!
As previously mentioned, the older I get
the more comfortable I want to be. Hence the two pairs of sneakers on my wish
list. I just feel like these running sneakers are great for everyday wear with
jeans and a sweater, or at the gym.
Again… another brand I probably wouldn’t
have discovered without Tumblr. However, how adorable are these boots? I love
them so much! They’re so versatile for autumn and winter.
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again – I’m the clumiest human in the world.
After many falls, the worst last year, these boots are definitely high on my
list of things I need to invest in.
