So heres my Christmas List, enjoy it, get me anything here or whatever you feel so compelled to, or just get some good gift ideas for your other friends, but remember one thing, Cassandra put you on.
1. So I've officially become obsessed with Phillip Lim and these sexy little gloves started it all. Leather covered jewels adorn the wrist of these fab and danty little beauties, in nude, navy and black, you can't really go wrong. Cop me a pair and I'll love you forever! (Barney's $119)
2.
Soulfood was the best show ever, remember the episode where Bird had a stalker and Lem was going crazy and in the end him, Bird and Terry were all hugging in the hallway.....no....well it was such an emotional scene. I loved it and I loved the way the show displayed black love in a true and modern way! The complete series is finally on box set and I think this along with Coming to America and that Eye's on the Prize PBS documentary would complete any Black home's theatre! (Barnes and Noble $167)
3.
I know, I know, a lime green bag???? Yeah, this bag actually turns me on. The Grovee could be in just about any color way and I would still be obsessed. I've decided that if I were to become rich in the near future, I would spend my entire wealth on acquiring this bag in every color it ever came in. Huh, You'd pick a different bag, YSL Downtown Tote, Hermes Kelly's or Birkin's? ... We'll snaps for you, but Grovee is all the bag I feel comforatable with. (Barney's $349)
4.
The real thing in stero. Alexander McQueen is the shit and there's not alot anyone can say otherwise. As much as I love fashion and no matter how much money I ever get, I dont yet see my self purchasing a $2000 top, skirt or anything beyond a bag, fur, or shoes even at the height of my career. For that reason, this scarf does a great job of allowing me to get the AMCQ experience (alexandermcqueen.com $260)
5.
So Phillip Lim created this beauty in responce to the current economic crisis. If you get the chance see the real thing at Barney's. All this for only $495....imagine. Yeah, take sometime and absorbe this.
6.
The hood girl in me can't get give up the big earrings, and the artsy dork in me could go off into a soliloquy about what these earrings inspire. Beside, I think they will compliment the new cut and frame my face just right. (Barney's $325)
7.
Cashmere Mafia was the best show on ABC and its cancelation left me in tears. Lipstick Jungle was the wackest attempt at recreating that SATC type show that Ive seen thus far. Lucy Liu was fashion forward and everyone else was correct and inspirational. Between this and Girlfriends being canceled, where does a progressive girl go? All 7 episodes are here to be replayed over and over and over. (Barnes and Nobel $27)
8.
So as you can tell, Im trying to step my accessories game up, and I really think I could hurt some feelings with these. When I saw these, I got really excited. I really feel like they are freakable and though slightly 80's again, they go with my hair. Plus for $22 you may as well. (Guess, $22)
9. I never get tired of these things. The hazelnut, the soft creamy center,yum! I always get a box for my self for Christmas, but if given these confections, I would freak out just the same as I would for the Phillip Lim gloves. (Your local grocer, price varies)
10.
Ok so close your mouth, yes this is Idris Elba and yes this is still my Christmas List. Yes he is on it and no, I have no shame. If you are fortunate enough to have a brother, cousin, uncle, etc. that looks anything ike Mr. Elba, hook a sista up. The kid is on the market, and Im hoping to attract an Idris-like counterpart. Ask and ye shall receive, so...
That pretty much sums it. Not that bag right? Only 10 items, I mean we are in a recession and all! Merry Christmas!
