Gift Guide for People that Write This Blog.

A: So, if we did a gift guide I feel like it would really just be things we want for ourselves. Like, someone could totally buy me this:

House of Harlow Sunburst Necklace

M: Oh, I see no reason you shouldn't get that! Me, I'll take these, please:

Frye Veronica Shortie Boot

A: Those need to be yours. It would be a CHRISTMAS CRIME if they weren't.  I would like these boot which are out of stock everywhere and also really, really ridiculously expensive:

Coclico Windy Boot

A: But if someone really loved me enough they would track down a pair because boots = love.

M: God. I think those boots would make you a better person. My delicate toes would also like a pair of these, for winter hibernation purposes:
J. Crew Lodge Moccasin

A: Oh, those would be perfect for shuffling around the house in your robe. Very chic. I would very much like this iPad case in my life:

Kate Spade Glitterball iPad Sleeve

A: Also maybe an iPad to put in it. That would be nice.

M: THAT IS SO SPARKLY NOW I WANT ONE TOOOOO.

A: I KNOW. AND WHEN YOU GET BORED YOU CAN JUST TWIRL IT LIKE A DISCO BALL.

M: Sorry, distracted. Anyway, I found The Perfect Coat. Perfect for all your Kate Lanphear dreams and honestly more me than my badass leather jacket:

Zara Leather Biker Coat

A: Guh. Nnuf. Unnf.

M: It hurts my feeeeeelings.

A: It's just mean, is what it is. Mean. We should both get this to make us feel better:


Bobbi Brown Extreme Party Eye Palette

M: If there is anything I love, it's an extreme party.

A: I know, right? I am still waiting to be invited to one. I would wear this:

Alice + Olivia Mona Sequined Dress

M: You are the sparkliest. I'll wear this:

Isabella Oliver Sequin Tunic Maternity Dress
A: Oooh. Pretty.

M: Here is something practical! I don't want to do a dumb diaper bag for this baby, and need something my husband would be okay carrying. Don't you think this little stripey backpack is sweet?


Baggu Sailor Striped Backpack

M: See? It's not ALL about me! This is for the BABY.

A: Oh, that is practical! And very unselfish of you. I also want a practical thing, this gym bag:

New Balance Performance Duffle

A: My Lululemon gym bag is an unwieldy disaster. (I know, I know.)

M: See? You are just looking out for your health.

A: Seriously, I am. I wish there were such a thing as a really cute gym bag that's also functional. I have Gym Bag Issues.

M: Poor bunny.

A: It's very sad for me.

M: I'll pray for your plight.

A: Alas.

  2. I love all this stuff. I am catching up on blog reading while baby sleeps and I also did a double take when I saw the Isabella Oliver dress. Then I saw the diaper bag and was like... whoa did I miss an announcement?! So happy for you!

  5. I also have gym bag issues. I have a big unwieldy one, and I have tried a full size messenger bag that isn't so unwieldy but doesn't quite hold everything if I plan to shower at the gym. It is perfect if I am not showering, though.

  6. Oh wow. I totally failed to pick up on the maternity references, mainly because, though not pregnant, I enjoy wearing the odd maternity item for the comfort factor. All that to say: Congratulations!

  11. I want that gym bag and I don't even work out. I have bag issues - I've convinced myself I'm a "collector" of great bags.
