While the majority of my Christmas list typically consists of luxury items that I’ve been lusting after, Phil usually asks me to include smaller, more affordable items too so that I have more presents to open. Inevitably, my family always asks me for a list as well so I make sure to have a list of under $100 items on hand to give them. I usually opt for more practical gifts from brands that I love so I know I’ll use whatever I ask for. My list always includes beauty items from my favorite luxury brands and cold-weather accessories that I’ll wear now. Here’s my list this year minus the mules – which I already bought (and am wearing above). I’ll be honest, I kind of hated them when I first saw them, but I was watching an episode of The Real Housewives of O.C. and Peggy was wearing the Gucci version as house shoes and I realized just how genius they are! I’ve been wearing them as slippers around the house, as car shoes when I’m wearing heels out (I put these on to drive) and as casual shoes for short errands. They are so convenient to have on hand and warm for the winter! I highly recommend them.
