Gift Guide: The Kasmas List

It’s here. The ultimate gift guide. The much awaited, very helpful (sometimes ridiculous) Kasmas List. If you don’t already know, it’s called Kasmas because Christmas Day is also my birthday. So the number of times I get asked “What do you want for…” doubles this time of year. That means I have to have a list of things up my sleeve. I’m also not a fan of surprises, so when people tend to go off ‘list’ I tend to get anxiety. So my people all know to just stick to the list!

This year’s list is even more practical than years past. It’s also more outrageous if you can believe it! YES. There are a few designer things on the list, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I wanted those things! A girls gotta have dreams, right?

I know I’m cutting it pretty close, but I know some of you guys out there still haven’t told your husband what you want for Christmas yet… It’s not too late, it’s never too late!

 

1 | Blue Light Glasses – Two reasons. 1. I spend all day staring at a computer screen and I think these would help. 2. I’ve been secretly dying to have some fake hipster glasses and these look just nerdy enough to be cool!

2| Golden Goose Sneakers – Yes, Keith. These are $500 DIRTY SNEAKERS. But they’re amazing and I want them. In case you’re wondering, I will not be receiving sais sneakers. But I’m dreaming about the casual comfort that they could provide me in the future!

3| Volcano Candle – Can you be a 20-something woman and not LOVE Blue Capri Volcano Candles? I asked my Sister in Law to just pool all the $$ that she would use for my Christmas and Birthday gifts and just buy me the largest Volcano Candle she can afford. We burn through them so quickly and I LOVE how they have so many different colors and stuff to match your decor. I love this gorgeous red for Christmas time!

4| Apple Watch Band – My original apple watch band is looking QUITE dirty and I can’t seem to get it clean. I’ve been wanting a leather Louis Vuitton one but I realize that I’m pushing it a bit with my current designer purchases, so I found this resin one instead and I must say, I am a BIG fan!

5| Free People Scarf – Every year, Free People  makes a KILLER scarf and this years model is no different! It comes in several colors and is the perfect amount of cozy. I think this scarf has made it on my list for the past 3 years. And I’ve yet to receive it… hmmmm!

6| Beauty Blender Brush Cleaner – Let’s get real here, ya girl needs to clean her makeup brushes. Don’t we all though? I’ve used this cleaner before and it’s pretty stinkin miraculous.

7| Layered Necklace – I’ve been really into layering necklaces lately. I like it even more when they’re all connected because then they don’t get tangled quite as easily! WINNNERRRR!

8| Collagen Peptides – This is on the list because typically at this time of year, everything you buy becomes ‘part of your Christmas’! You know what I mean? That postpartum hair loss has been getting me gooooood. I don’t know how I have any hair left in my head, really. My friend, Ashton, told me to get some of these. I’ve been using them for about a week and I think it’s helping! I would totally recommend for PP moms but also for anyone who wants fabulous hair and skin!

9| Felt Hat –  I’ve been dying for a flat (stiff) brimmed hat. Keep that floppy stuff away, get me something with a little structure! Love this hat!

10| Brown Gucci Belt – You can’t blame me, it’s gorgeous. If you have a sugar daddy, you should definitely own one of these (or three)!

11| Red Slippers – I try to talk someone into getting me a new pair of house shoes every year because I wear them all day every day. I saw these beauties in JCrew the other day and just knew they belonged with me! I LOVE the bright red color. It’s just so happy and it’s going to make me happy every morning when I put them on.

12| Soma Enbliss Bralette – I’ve talked about this bra on my instagram several times now because I’m more than obsessed! It’s the perfect amount of lift and support with even more comfort. They also have this one that has a bit more structure. I’ve put both on my list this year. Please Santa, PLEASE! It comes in like 14 colors so there is seriously a ‘nude’ for everyone!

13| Erin Condren Planner – I’m a pretty obsessive list maker. I thought it was a weekness until I read somewhere that most wildly successful people make a to-do list Every Single Day. I’ve been using a physical planner for a couple of years now and I can’t go a day without it! It’s my life line. Needless to say, Erin Condren Life Planners are the top of the top when it comes to organization and I’ve been wanting one for several years. Now that I’m 100% sure that I’m going to use this thing all day everyday, I decided to ask Keith to spring for it for my Birthday. They’re pricey, but they’re so worth it! I have one 20% off coupon left I think, so if you’re wanting one, I’ll give the coupon to the first person to message me about it on instagram!

14| Travel Jewelry Organizer – I’ve been a MESSSSSS lately traveling. Maybe it’s because I’m now packing for more than one person. And that tiny human sure does need a bunch of stuff. I really need something to keep my necklaces from knotting, because Keith is really tired of me asking him to help me untangle them.

15| Saucony Kinvara Running Shoes – I need new running shoes. Not becuase I’ve been running a lot or anything, but because my old ones literally have holes in them. Maybe I’ll actually run more if I’ve got cool shoes… PROBS NOT!
