Replacing my Uggs

Dropping my christmas list hints...
I was browsing my local Sephora trying to not find things for me, but for the people I love. Alas:


Caudalie VinoGo Weekend Kit ($50 value) $32.00
The cute little kit includes the Instant Foaming Cleanser, a full size Beauty Elixir, Contour Eye & Lip Cream, Energizing Skin Cream, the Cabernet Shower Gel, Nourishing Body Lotion and the Lip Conditioner in a full size. Everything in this kit meets travel regulation standards - the bag is see through, and everything is under 3.0 oz - and the bottle for the cleanser is even refillable! And I've always loved the Beauty Elixer - much better than those "refreshers" that you buy that are basically just water in a spray can. The Beauty Elixer has all sorts of essential oils for your tired skin, and smells pleasant to boot.

Clarisonic Skincare Brush, $195.00
I put this on my christmas list to my mother as my big gift. Who needs pots and pans for your new apartment when you can have great skin? And I even have Oprah standing by my decision.

bag du jour

I covet this Lanvin, COVET. Lanvin is always so classic and chic, Alber Elbaz and the creative team always opt for wearable as opposed to ultra trendy. It's so buttery soft and i have yet to find a designer who does a bag with a chain that is so specific to its own label, without reminding everyone of yet another Chanel handel rip-off. I. Covet. This. Bag. Plus, it's on sale at Barney's right now:)
And then there is the Marc Jacobs Stam bag. I've always loved this bag when i see it editorially, but im always so iffy about the quilted leather because it is so easy to knock off. Since this bag came out about five seasons ago, i have seen it everywhere from urban outfitters to chinatown knockoffs, so i never got it. This style is the newest one though, and the difference is that the quilt is larger which i personally think is better than a smaller quilt, which makes it look cheaper. I am digging the crinkly leather effect, much more polished than the regular matte leather. The old SS'06 and F/W'06 Stams were too dull for my taste, and some of the colors reminded me of old silly putty. this one is much more brilliant.
