Window Shopping Wednesdays

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!

Since I’ve missed a few weeks of WSW I’m going to double up; here are the 10 things I’m coveting this week –

1.   The fabric circles necklace from Boden.

Normally I ignore necklaces because my mom makes jewelry on the side and her stuff is cute and one-of-a-kind.  But I’m not sure if she could manage this one and it’s cute!  Feels totally ballerina to me for some reason.  I can see it in my head with a pink pleated skirt and black cardigan.

2.  The Silver Skinny Sparkle Bic Band.

I realize that I actually still haven’t cut my hair or gone to the gym, but once I get around to doing those two things this will come in handy.

3. A Reflective Key Cuff from Lululemon.

As long as we’re pretending, this would be really useful for when I run outside.  You know, next spring.

4.  These striped gloves from Free Hands.

I always could just get off my damn phone when I’m walking outside this winter, but with these I wouldn’t have to.

5.  The Tiered-Pleat Tank from Old Navy.

In Crimson and Clover.  I love love love details like the pleats on the front of this shirt.  And it looks like it would be adorable underneath a blazer for professional moments this winter.

6.  The Humping Bear Salt and Pepper Shakers from Urban Outfitters.

I’m pretty sure I’ve never needed something more.  Nevermind the fact that we dont’ keep salt and pepper at the table.  I call the husband “Bear” so we’ve started collecting a random assortment of bears and I think these could take any of the bears in our current collection in a fight.

7.  This Christmas plates set from Pottery Barn Kids.

How cute are those reindeer?!

8.  A Jet Pack Flying Session.

I don’t understand how this works and I don’t care, I just want to fly!  The site says come fulfill your James Bond fantasy, but I can’t be the only person who sees this and wants to pretend I’m one of the Monarch’s minions!

9.  The Refined Facial Polish from Benefit.

We’re not even into December and I’m already needing to slough winter off my skin.  Plus the packaging on this makes me smile.

10.  The Bobbing for Baubles polish from Essie.

I wish I had spotted this in time before tomorrow’s Miami trip because I would have bought it.  My nails need to be this cool.

What’s on your shopping list?
