Christmas Wishlist

This is my DREAM bag. I mean it's got everything I've ever looked for in a bag...
Shoulder strap, check. Zippered closure, check. Not everyone's carrying it, check. Classical designer house, check. Timeless design, check. Small but big enough for the essentials, check. Good quality and durable, check.
I love it equally in red and black, so hey... I'm not picky ;)


Ok Victoria, back to reality...

I've tried to think of some more reasonable items and it was hard to think of anything other than that bag buttttt I've found some things that I may buy with giftcards or ask for if someone asks.

......

couple of MAC brushes

I'd love to invest in couple more good MAC eye brushes because most of my brushes are crappy and falling apart.

Sigma eye brushes.

I really wanna try Sigma. These 6 make me excited. I'm not sure why lol.

I've recently thrown out most of my closet because it was either really dated, destroyed, or way too big. I used to buy a lot of crap at Urban Behaviour and Costa Blanca etc, now I just want to get fewer but nicer items. I love Aritizia clothing. Their stuff fits me, is flattering, and good quality. Oh, and they sell Rag and Bones, which I'm in LOVE with... and that's probably what I'd blow a giftcard on...

I also like Topshop!

If only I took a picture of my boots before my mother threw them out...

The only boots I have now are my Choo biker boots which I don't want to wear everyday. I'd like to get pair of everyday riding boots. I don't particularly want these ones, but I do like the duo colour of black and brown on these so that they go with everything, but comfort's the most important thing.

Beats headphones because they're amazing and red and my headphones are breaking.
*UPDATE: my dog has now chewed mine, so now I have NO headphones...*

Car key. Because if I don't ask for it, there's zero chance of me buying this for myself and I will continue to torment myself with my broken one.

And now some stuff that isn't because my things are broken...

YSL lipstick in 13 Peach Passion, just because I really like that colour. LOL

And I'm literally obsessed with lush...

The last 3 are probably the most practical because I'll admit the last time I actually took a bath was probably 5 years ago... but I guess the bathbombs are fun to smell...

so mainly I'd like to get a big Snow fairy shower gel and grease lighting :)

Also, every year I give myself something from myself. It's corny but I really think everyone should do it, just to celebrate your successes as the year ends. 

Two days ago I actually won a pair of Rihanna concert tickets on the radio. 

It's actually a crazy story for multiple reasons.

I'm a huge Rihanna fan so my boyfriend gave me tickets to her show for back on our one year anniversary. I was ecstatic and a few (long) months later we had a really good time at the concert. Well... the tickets that I just won happen to fall on the actual date of our 3 year anniversary. I thought it was a cute coincidence :)

Also, I've never won anything before (not for lack of trying), so I still can't believe I actually won.

I actually tried reallllllly hard to win these tickets. About a month ago another station was giving them away all week. Well, we checked online for all the times and called at almost every time. I woke up brutally early for some, missed class and ran to my car in the middle of class for others... for some we even had 3 or 4 phones going. We didn't get through till the very last contest time of the week. I called during the middle of showering and was caller #34 instead of #35...

Then 2 days ago I was driving and listening to another station. They said that after this song would be a chance to win Rihanna tickets so I pulled over and got their phone number ready. 

First few times was busy and then on my 5th try it rang. Well the guy picked up and started talking to me about Rihanna. I kinda knew at this point that I had won because otherwise they just tell you to try again. I was so jittery and excited, and really quite embarrassing but it's definitely worth it!

So, since I'm broke and will be even broker after buying other people's gifts, I'm going to consider this my Christmas gift to myself :)

And I just want to say that I think "bad luck" is only a frame of mind. Never give up because one day it really will all pay off. I'm really glad I kept trying, because sometimes it only takes one more time. 

Until next time,

xoxo V
