My November Wish List

My November Wish List

 

 

It’s that time of year. No, we aren’t talking Thanksgiving or holiday shopping today. My birthday is in t-minus three days. Exciting, right?

Thanks to frequent trips to Target and my resulting large collection of Mossimo merchandise, my wish list this year is short. My search for the perfect Over-the-Knee boots is still ongoing, and after spotting this sold-out version from Nordstrom Rack, I’m beginning to feel defeated (seriously, I have been stalking Nordstrom’s website to see if these OTK beauties would ever come back in stock…still no luck). But a recent trip to DSW has made me an optimist again with a few of their OTK options. Stay tuned to see if this search ends happily.

Aside from the OTK debacle, the rest of the items on my list should be able to be purchased without incident. Stila’s ‘Eyes Are The Window’ shadow palette has been on my radar for a while. With great shades for fall and winter, these shadows will be getting a lot of use. Of course, my list wouldn’t be complete without a few layering pieces for the impending cold weather. We all know that scarves are always in style, and the windowpane option is the perfect fall staple. That being said, I’m looking to welcome a blanket scarf that can double as a cape and keep me toasty with minimal added layers. Finally, should those OTK boots ever materialize, then a pair of edgy leather leggings will be in order.

What’s on your wish list this season?

  15. This is a great wishlist. I really hope you find your OTK boots. I just recently made the plunge on a pair but it did take me a while to find the perfect ones. My advice is to go to the store and just start trying on different ones and different colors. That helps a ton in making the final decision. Sometimes the ones you think you are going to like the most are not the ones you end up picking.

    • Thanks for the advice, Kathy! I’m glad you were able to score a pair of OTK boots. I stopped in DSW the other day and I found it much easier to shop when I was able to try the boots on and walk around in them. I’m hesitant to purchase them online since I’m petite and am not sure how they’ll look in person.

  18. Oh I’ve heard Choies and Asos have good budget-friendly OTK boots that look like the Stuart Weitzmans too! Also I love that poncho — adore it in fact! I didn’t know it was missing from my closet until just now!
