I am not much of a shopper, much to my mother’s chagrin. The woman can spend days at the mall, while I start to feel itchy after just a few hours. It’s not that I’m not materialistic, I totally am, it’s just that the thought of adding more stuff to my life makes it hard to breathe. But I like the idea of things. So I’m an avid window shopper. I browse catalogs I’ll never buy from and hold my breathe when I pass the window at J.Crew. So while I’m stuck at school all day Wednesdays, I thought we could have some fun via blog. Let’s window shop!
Here’s what I’m coveting this week –
1. Rebel Mary Peanuts from Lord Nut.
Peanuts with spicy bloody mary flavor, lemon, celery, and pepper. My favorite drink meets my favorite legume! The other flavors – Thai, Cinnamon… – look good too. I think these would be a lot of fun to have out at the cocktail parties I like to imagine I throw.
2. The crunchy spread from Biscoff.
When I spotted this in the catalog (Yes, I get the catalog. What?) I about had a heart attack. Crunchy is my favorite kind of peanut butter and Biscoff is my favorite kind of spread. Conclusion – crunchy Biscoff would blow my mind.
3. Outlast Lipstain from Cover Girl.
When I showed you guys the last pencil-like lipcolor I hadn’t seen this product yet. This looks like the Sephora lipstick I loved and lost. You get color without mess (lipstick on your teeth?!) and you don’t need to reapply every five minutes. I actually don’t ever wear lipstick hello, Chapstick! – but for some reason I’m willing to make an exception for these sticks. In Flirty Nude or Everbloom Kiss!
4. The collapsible water bottle from the MoMa.
It’s not like I do much hiking in my day-to-day life, but I still think this is amazing. It’s a reusable water bottle that rolls up or stores flat like a piece of paper when it’s empty!
5. The Planetaria ring from Laura Bohinc.
This is the dream-no-way-Jose-in-real-life item of the week. Diamonds and pearls?!? And actually the version I spotted in a magazine was gold instead of sterling silver; it was more fabulous and more expensive.
What are you coveting this week?
That water bottle is way too cool – I want it to throw in my bag. How perfect!
How funny…I am not much of a shopper, much to my MIL’s chagrin. 🙂 I love how we have that in common.
