Christmas 2010 wishlist...

Seeing as it is now December 2nd and we're officially in the Christmas season, I thought it was most appropriate to put my Christmas wishlist up. While I don't expect all of these gifts (OK, maybe inside I'm hoping for all of them), I think this is a pretty appropriate list of things that I truly need and not just a list of "wants." I have been mentioning to *A* that I would be putting up my Christmas list on my blog so he could stop on by and take a peak as to what to get me for Christmas :)

1. Winter Boots
I have looked on Spring and Aldo to get an idea of what I'm looking for- I have a pair from Spring that has lasted me about 3 years so I think its time to trade them in. I want a pair that can bare the few feet of snow we should be getting in the next few weeks. And a pair that not only I can wear to work if it is really chilly out, but I could use them to also play in the snow if my heart desires :)
Something like these..



 


2. Real Simple magazine subscription
I received 3 copies of the Real Simple magazine through a cereal box free subscription and I LOVE their magazine. Not only is it huge in size, its filled with awesome articles, lots of tips and tricks about everything from health/beauty to organizing (my fav!) and recipes, etc. Its $24.00 for a year long subscription.

3. Kitchenaid beater
I saw a Kitchenaid turbo beater set in Giant Tiger a few weekends ago for the affordable price of $19.97 and thought with the amount of baking I do, I would love to have a great set of beaters.
4. Style Books
I have wanted the Lauren Conrad style book and the Olsen twins "Influence" style book for months now and was tempted to buy them when I moved into my new place because I thought they would make for great coffee table reading. I held off and would love these for Christmas now :)


5. Yoga/Workout capris and top
I have one pair of really awesome yoga shorts and a workout shirt that really isn't that great (its from Old Navy so its quite baggy even though its a small and doesn't quite fit right). I wouldn't mind a good set of yoga capris pants and a top from say Winners.



6. Body Shop Cranberry lotion
Always a favourite of mine at Christmas, I would love the cranberry lotion from Body Shop. I love the smell and seeing as it only comes out at Christmas, this is the only time I have to scoop it up so I smell wonderful all year round :P

8. External Hard drive
I have wanted an external hard drive for a while now since *A* got one. I only have a 1GB USB key so it gets annoying when your trying to transfer large files/songs or movies. Plus, the main reason why I want one is as a back up for all my files. Even though I have a new laptop, you can never be sure when its randomly going to "conk out" on you, so I would want a large hard drive to store all my files in case something were to happen. I think these retail for around $100- and I would definitely want the portable type hard drive where it acts like a large USB key.


                                                     
 

9. Sex and the City- Season 6: Part 2
This would round out the complete Sex and the City series. I have ever other season including Season 6: Part 1 but I wouldn't mind getting the last part, Part 2. It only retails for about $20 in Walmart so its definitely not as expensive as the series use to be when it first came out on DVD.

Maybe's:
New ipod
I am very proud of myself- I still have the first version ipod that I got in my first year of University and still use it. Problem is- it is only a GB in size so it only holds up to 5o0 songs. Constantly, I am always having to cut songs off of my playlist because I can't fit all my songs which totally sucks! While I don't relaly need the 8GB ipod touch, something a little bigger then my current ipod would be awesome!

Infinity curling iron by ConairI saw the commerical on TV for this a while back and while I have 2 other curling irons, I would love to try this out. This curling iron is different from all others because it is only a wand so you don't clamp your hair done, you just wind it  around the spool and voila, the curlers look great!


Pin It!

The thing I love the most on your list is the external hard drive. It is wonderful and has helped me out of a few computer disasters. I vote Santa brings that to you first!

You've got to be crapping me. Stina I just got that curling wand a few days ago. I have only played with it so far and it seems to work really well. I am sick of super tight curls that my curling iron makes, hence why I got this. The true test will be Saturday when I actually try to curl my whole head with it before my work Xmas party. I'll let you know how it goes ;)
