This is an ambitious wish list, even for me. However, these are currently the items lingering in my various carts in the multiple tabs on my phone. At least they’re [almost] all practical in nature! I will be stalking holiday deals in hopes of making a few of these items mine this year. 

Here is what is currently on my wish list:

Madewell Lorimer Backpack 

I’ve had my current, monogrammed backpack for 5 years and it is falling apart. No, I’m not exaggerating. I fully expect the bottom to fall out any day now, which is an issue because its how I transport my laptop (amongst a thousand other things) around on a nearly daily basis. This week, I asked my Instagram peeps if they had any suggestions for durable but chic backpacks. I fell in LOVE with the Lorimer Backpack from Madewell. My favorite feature? I can still have my monogram! Word on the street is,

Anastasia Beverly Hills x Jackie Aina Palette

The Jackie Aina collaboration with Anastasia Beverly Hills has been on my wish list ever since it dropped (I even mentioned the eyeshadow palette in this Friday Feels post!). It definitely does not go in the practical category, but I sure would love to have it.

Dudley Stephens Dunham Dress 

Speaking of items that I would just love to have, this Dudley Stephens dress is also in this category. The color of the dress is perfect for a casual holiday look, plus in a Dudley, you are guaranteed to be super comfortable. If I told you that it was made out of recycled water bottles would it make the purchase more justifiable?

Nespresso Vertuo

For about 6 months now, I have been casually looking out for a coffee maker to replace my Keurig. My current coffeemaker is a single cup, but it cannot accommodate the use of a travel mug which is something that I really want in my next coffee maker. I also was looking for something that had a sleek design and didn’t take up too much space. Someone I follow mentioned that they love their Nespresso Vertuo and it checked everything in my boxes! Even better, it is currently on sale!

Ninja Foodi 9-in-1 Cooker 

I love my pressure cooker (I have this one!) and I use it as often as possible. However, over the course of the year, I have been more and more intrigued by the idea of an air fryer. The only problem is, I have absolutely zero space to accommodate both appliances (studio life, amirite?). Enter, this Ninja Foodi 9-in-1 Cooker! It not only has an air fryer and pressure cooker function, but you can also steam, slow cook, sear/sauté, bake/roast, broil, dehydrate, and make yogurt. I recently found out that my friend has one and she only had good things to say!
