  • Lovelyish Team Holidy Wishlist!

    In lieu of our regular wish list we do every Saturday, we here at Lovelyish thought it would be in good holiday spirit to collaboratively put together all of our lists of what we'd like this holiday season.

    Erica's list:


    Talk about all-in-one and convenience! I am absolutely in love with this palette from Laura Mercier.
    The first level are five lip-glosses and the second level is five eye-shadows. Both come with a brush and applicator.
    It beats lugging around a makeup bag, and it's so tiny it takes up no room at all in my purse. It's a little pricey,
    but completely worth it; everything stays completely on.


    I love, love love converses. I've wanted a pair of high tops for so long and these are perfect.
    I want a light color but white isn't cutting it; these do the trick!



    This icy NY wind does nothing for my ears except make them feel like they're going to break off.
    I wanted this in red, but feel like I'll resemble a hunter. So in steps another color I love, grey! 


    These rings. I have an obsession with hearts, bows and owls. And also, apparently, gaudy jewelry.
    But at $5 a pop, how can you go wrong?

    Cathy's list:



    I don't know about you but this dress is super cute!
    Oh, and I love the ruffles at the bottom of the dress and sleeves.
    Although it's cashmere, which means big bucks (which I do not have), this Bloomingdale's dress definitely has a classic but sexy touch to it.


    Words can't even describe how beautiful this ring is.
    I can't pick out one specific thing about the ring that I love.
    The flowers, the diamonds... who wouldn't want this ring?
    Okay, maybe the ring might be a little too big for my tiny fingers, but oh well... Good job, Sears!




    I'm obsessed with Victoria's Secret so I'm pretty much game with getting tons of things online or at the store.
    I really like the jacket because it looks warm and it's nicely fitted to the body. Also, the buckle gives it a little spice.
    Overall, the coat serves its purpose but looks good for the modern fashionista, too!

    Iris's List



    I saw these rub-on eyeshadow sheets on the Tyra Banks show, and I'm curious to see how they work. Try as I might, I am not a make-up artist, so knowing that I can just apply the patch to my eyelid, hold it in place for a minute or so, and have professionally smokey eyes definitely makes me happy. Avon's "In A Wink Instant Eyeshadow Sheets" retail for only $9. Score!




    Books about fashion are a guilty pleasure of mine -- it's sound advice with fun pictures. Who wouldn't want that? The advice ranges from practical to cute (like infusing a little sparkle into every outfit with sequins or fun accessories). I'll be recovering from crazy family parties with this on my lap.



    Try as I might, I can never get enough perfume. This is the loveliest fragrance -- it's sweet and oh-so delicate. I've dropped a few hints to my parents about this little gem, but I might just have to get this on my own.

    Denise's List



    I didn't believe that tools make the makeup until I started spending a little more on brushes. I'm not entirely sure what all of the brushes in Sephora's Prestige Brush Set are used for, but I'd sure like to learn by experimentation.
     

    As an die-hard caffeine addict (I drank 4 cups a day at one point...that was pretty bad), I find this caffeine molecule necklace adorable and fitting. It's also a little geeky, which I'm sure will make for a great ice-breaker during parties and small talk.



    I read a study somewhere about how men at a party are less likely to approach women wearing black. Apparently, colorful dresses are less intimidating than an LBD, but I'm sure this little red number by BCBGMAXAZRIA could put that to the test.



    Nine West evening shoes. I love pewter-colored strappies because they're classy, less harsh, and more versatile than their black counterparts. Finally learning to own my height and walk confidently in heels allows for the extra "oomph" I need to make my rounds at parties.

     
    How cute is this watch from Fossil? It's modern shape and retro color make it the perfect accessory for glamming up a long day in the classroom.
