Wish List – Want, Need, Wear, Read

·
It’s time for Show and Tell Tuesday with Andrea and today it’s all about showing off four gifts you would like to receive in the categories want, need, wear, read.  Hmm….I may need the definition between want and need.  Ha!  Personally I like to give Santa lots of options!  Grab your list and join the fun.
Also joining Sarah and Victoria for Day 1 of their Christmas link up!  Hop over and see all the fun prompts  they have planned each day through the 15th.
Those things I really want but no I do not really need right now but would be so fun to show up if Santa was so inclined to drop them off!  My current iPhone works just find but has a battery life of like 10 minutes it seems.  I’ve heard the camera is amazing on the iPhone 7 too!  I have never purchased a pair of nice sunglasses for myself and probably never will but I would love to have a pair of Ray-Bans instead of the ones I usually purchase for $11.99 at CVS.  I’ve heard so many reviews about the Instant Pot and as much as we cook I really think it would be used but it is definitely much more expensive than my regular crock pot. Finally, my Nikon 50mm prime lens is about 10 years old and has started failing to auto focus.  This lens is a must for moms who really want to get into photography and I’ve missed using mine.
Am I the only one who loves great undergarments but hates spending money on them?  I need some panties friends and having theseVictoria Secret seamless panties show up in my stocking would not disappoint!  Socks are a another item I tend to skip as I really like these nice Balega socks for my workouts and they are pricey.  My house shoes are probably as old as my youngest child and they are pretty shot.  These Minnetonka slippers look so cozy.  Have you ever used a resistance band for stretching?  Well you must NOT be my age because these bands make all the difference for me but currently I do not have one at home and I’m only using at the gym.
When I saw these Zella leggings I immediately wanted them!  Love the cut out detail and the high waist.  I love my cognac over the knee boots so much that I would love to have a black pair.  It has been tricky finding a pair tall enough to actually make it over my entire knee so I’m not even positive this pair would work but I do love this pair from Sole Society.  My running shoes are over a year old and it’s time to think about replacing them so why not have Santa pick me a new pair!

 

Y’all, I am so not going to meet my goal to read a book a month this year.  I love reading but it somehow gets dropped first.  Wild and Free as well as Present Over Perfect are both on my list to read.  I will also not spend money on magazines but absolutely love reading them!  Crazy, I know! When I’m gifted a subscription to a magazine I love to browse through I really do get kind of excited. It may be the memories of grabbing that Seventeen magazine every month (or sneaking my mom’s Cosmo) but I love finding a magazine in the mailbox.  Of course with the anticipation over the Gilmore Girls release THIS FRIDAY, I’m also very interested in reading this book from Lauren Graham, Talking as Fast as I Can.
I can hardly wait to see everyone’s list today!  I love getting ideas for those on my list.

  1. I loved reading Seventeen too! It was the best day EVER when it would come in the mail or you would find the new month's issue at the store!
    And I'm loving those boots and leggings!

  2. My mom usually gives me some kind of magazine subscription and I always love it. Seventeen used to be my favorite too. Sometimes it can be hard to squeeze in time to read a book, although I love reading. I also love those leggings. You have some really cute things on this list. Have a great day! …And get yourself some Raybans. I got mine at Costco for cheap (cheaper than at other retailers). 🙂

  3. This was such a cute way to put together your list. I may have to do mine that way too… except the reading part. I never read :P. I think I just read all the live long day with the girls so it isn't exactly relaxing to me to do on my own.

    I think I am the only blogger who doesn't love her 50mm lens. It is just a LOT of walking and hard to use inside since it is fixed. They are a fun novelty items though, I just don't use it much at all and know some people who use it ALL the time. It is fun for the bokeh though. I also really need some new workout socks and some underwear too. The basics get me every time 😛

  4. I love my iphone 7! It took me a while to say that, coming from a Samsung Note, but I finally bit the bullet and switched. And Santa always brings new bras and panties from VS!

  5. Love your list Shelly!! I need those glasses! LOL And your Christmas card is wonderful!! I should've linked up!

  6. I decided to do the 4 things for my kids this year. I had a hard time with it because apparently everyone in my family has everything they want and can't come up with ideas. Grrrrrrr. You had some Great ideas! I love several items you have on your lists! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
