My most requested holiday blog post is finally here! I have had lots of friends ask me what is on my list and what they should ask for, and I am here to share my own personal list, that features a variety of prices. I love to add some small items and some larger items, so that my family can pick & choose and buy something that they love as well! I never expect gifts on the holidays, as the 2 week long break from school AFTER finals, is a present enough (I'm sure we all agree!). Still, I want to post this as just another guide that can help you on your wishlist, whether that be for a birthday or just to buy yourself. Without further ado, here is my 2018 XMAS Wishlist!

1) AirPods (From Apple- $159)

These game-changing earbuds have slowly made their way to most highschoolers ears' over the past year. You can't walk by 5 people without at least 2 people owning these babies, okay maybe that's a but of an exaggeration, but you know what I'm getting at. So as a music lover, I have decided to ask for a pair for Christmas, so I can finally stop trying to detangle the pesky cords of the traditional Apple earbuds. Who else is gonna join me this year?! (PS my little brother is asking for these too, so they make the perfect gift for all ages!!)

2) Jaclyn Hill X QUAY Roxanne Studded Aviators (In silver- $65)

I love all things studs for winter! These icy silver aviators are a fun addition to any sunglass collection and I JUST LOVE THEM! Plus, Jaclyn is one of my favorite beauty influencers and QUAY is such a high quality brand for a lower price point. So it's a win win!

3) Skin Gym Jade Face Roller (UO- $32)

This jade face roller from UO has been all over my Instagram feed recently. As a favorite among the stars, it supposedly "cools + tightens + depuffs facial tissue, using small + large stones that maintain healthy blood circulation when rolled over the face... [it also] [c]an reduce redness, stimulate collagen, improve elasticity, improve the appearance of undereye circles, tightens pores and promote lymphatic drainage" all of which sounds a bit unnecessary, but is definitely an item I want to try out!!

4) Superga 2790 Linea Platform Sneaker (from UO- In white $80)

These Superga sneakers are the top pair of shoes on my list for this Christmas! I love any shoe with a platform, and these have just that! Plus, they are the ideal shoe to go with any casual outfit and add some height as well. SO all in all, I need these sneakers;) Do you?!

5) Hunter Red Glossy Tall Military Boots ($150 Hunter)

I just recently added these gems to my christmas list, just because I have realized living in KC that this unpredictable weather calls for some good quality boots. I love the Hunter ones as they are really great quality and the red color adds a pop to ever outfit you wear them with. Super excited to wear some (hopefully) on our next snow day!!

6) Apple Watch Anthracite/Black Nike Sport Band – S/M (Apple- $49)

Another smaller, but really wanted item on my list is a new Apple Watch band! I really love the Nike ones that give a really sporty look, but I also LOVE the new colors of Nectarine and Mellow Yellow. They are the cutest! If you have an Apple Watch, Christmas is the best time to ask for some more interchangeable bands to give your watch a new appearance.

7) Anastasia Beverly Hills Sultry Eyeshadow Palette (Sephora- $45)

While browsing Sephora, I saw this gorg new palette that just came out and features a ton of pretty everyday shades that are different than your average neutral palette. I LOVE my brown and shimmer shades on a daily basis and would totally use the heck out of this palette. I'm sure if your just like me, you'd rock it too!

8) Urban Outfitters 'Peachy Clean' Bath Mat (UO- $39)

This may seem like a super silly gift to ask for, but I have been eyeing this cute bath accessory for a while now! It has the cutest saying & colors, and is a fun addition to any bathroom! Urban has the best room decor, so I would suggest looking at their HOME section to add a few items to your list!

9) Chanel N°5 Eau de Parfum Spray ($80 for 1.2 oz)

My second to last item on my list, is this very famous perfume, the Chanel No. 5! It is a world-favorite and I adore the elegant look of the bottle. I really would get my use out of this perfume, and bet it would become my own classic!

10) David Yurman Cable Classics Bracelet with 18K Gold, 4mm ($395)

Last, but not least! The top item on my list is also my most expensive, but is for sure a classic piece that will never go out of style. This real gold and sterling silver bracelet would compliment every single outfit, and be a great item to have in your jewelry collection. David Yurman is a well-love designer whose pieces are worn by all individuals, and very well known. I obviously do not expect this as a gift this Christmas due to the price point, but HEY a girl can dream right;)

On that note, that is the end of my Christmas Wishlist 2018! I hope you all enjoyed it and found a few more ideas for your list. AND let the countdown to Christmas begin. Happy December!!

Also, don't forget to DM me on Instagram for any more gift ideas or questions.

Have an amazing week!!,
