ETC: My Christmas Wish List

I like to fantasy shop more than I like to actually shop. Well, maybe "more" is too strong of a word. I do enjoy a real life stroll through my neighborhood mall quite a bit, but the feeling of online window shopping also has a special place in my heart (right next to inventive condiments and paying for things in exact change). It's much more freeing to fantasize about what I could buy instead of actually buying it because once I do the thrill is gone, and so is my money. In a perfect Christmas movie world, here are the delightful wonders I'd love to unwrap this year, or anytime really, in case you're reading this in the future and just simply have to shower me with gifts or something.

My Christmas Wish List

1. Scrunchy Knee Socks: I refuse to have cold knees! Plus, scrunchy top looks perfect with boots.

2. Books {We Killed: The Rise of Women in American Comedy by Yael Kohen, Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls by David Sedaris and Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Home by Jeni Britton Bauer}: I'm trying not to buy books since I have so many to read, but these ones keep catching my eye. I can't believe I haven't read the latest Sedaris book yet! Ridiculous.

3. Charley Harper Glass Set: Love Charley Harper's art, need to drink things. No brainer.

4. Phrenology Head Container: I've always wanted a vintage phrenology head, but this one holds candy!

5. Ouija Board T-Shirt: Ever since Erin rocked one of these, I've been obsessed!

6. Real Techniques Expert Face Brush: Only hear great things about this brush so now I'm curious.

7. Mint Green Purse with Gold Studs: Beautiful and I can stuff all my junk inside it. (pervert)

8. Cath Kidston Button Set: I love the aesthetic of this brand!

9. Striped Bow Headband: Always need headbands and headscarves. Stripes + bows make it better.

10. DVDs {30 Rock, Breaking Bad and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia}: I have an obsessive need for completion when it comes to owning TV shows on DVD. For the record I still need seasons 3 and above of 30 Rock and Breaking Bad, and Always Sunny season 8.

11. Zebra Print Scarf: There are tiny zebras all over this scarf. No further explanation needed.

12. Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl: I REALLY want to try these pencils and Alle on xoVain raves about this shade constantly.

13. Salted Caramel Yankee Candle: I need better quality candles and this scent sounds wonderful.

14. Twin Peaks 'Diane' Broach: Genius. I love the look and cleverness of this pin.

15. Kitschy Deer Hair Comb: Adorable and pretty weird, which is my mantra.

16. OCC Lip Tar in Stalker: Kind of obsessed with red lips, but whatevahhh.

17. Grilled Cheese Fabric: Just think of the magical things that could be sewn from this fabric. Grilled cheese pantsuit coming through!

18. Benefit They're Real! Mascara: Amazing. Ruined me for all other mascaras, but so spendy.

19. Charlie Kelly Spaghetti Watercolor Portrait: It's hard to read, but the caption says "What is your spaghetti policy here?" and he's eating spaghetti out of a Ziplock bag. Art is important.

And now that I feel sufficiently like a spoiled brat/consummate consumer, I must ask: what's on your wish list? What awesome stuff are you gifting to other people?
