All I Want For Christmas Is…

In the last couple of weeks, I’ve gotten some emails and tweets about gift ideas for someone who happens to like all of the same things I do (well let me tell you up front, that your friends have good taste). So I thought I’d give you a look at my personal wish list this year (although this is ever-growing, especially because there’s no way I’ll receive all of these things in one holiday season).

But really all I’m asking for this Christmas is…

The Perfect Winter Combination

I admit, for many years (6 to be exact) Uggs were my go-to winter boots. Yes, I know you may be thinking to yourself “and she calls herself a fashion expert?” We all make fashion mistakes and I apologize for this one. Hey at least I’m honest, right?

Although that nice shearling interior might seem cozy, when you’re trekking through snow and slush these boots are bound to get soaked…which they did…leaving my feet cold, wet and sad. So why did I continue to buy them for so many years? This question remains unanswered.

In Chicago, we’re all about practicality when it comes to fashion but I think this is a combination everyone can benefit from (except if you’re in LA, then you can continue wearing your flip flops in December and we’ll all hate you for it).

Shopping Net-a-Porter Under $200

I get really excited 3 times a year and 3 times a year only: the summer Net-a-Porter sale, the Winter Net-a-Porter sale, and Christmas. Over the summer, I rounded up my favorite items on the luxury site for under $250. With their Winter sale in full swing and further reductions added today (meaning my bank account will be significantly less before lunchtime), I thought this would be the perfect time to pick the best items from the sale…but this time make it under $200.
