Have. Want. Need.

As we're slowly rolling into the Christmas season (seriously? November went by SO fast)...
it's time to focus on Holiday Wish Lists and party outfits!



Have:

I'm almost all set for the cousin's wedding on December 27th. In Ottawa for a week, and I have the dress I'm wearing to the wedding. And the one to the rehearsal dinner...
Both are from Le Chateau. The dinner will be a nude slip covered in black lace, with a scrunched lace cumberbund type deal with a sparkling silver pin. It's also a tie halter.
The wedding dress will be a green, shorter, bubble dress.

I got a really cute vintage pin the other day. It's a big chunky pearl with little fake diamonds on either side, and a drop swingy gold piece with another little diamond. Looks cute on this plaid blazer I picked up at Value Village.





Want:

- To dye my hair red... what are some good brands for hair dye that would actually WORK on my dark brown hair?
- I'm thinking of some really cozy tshirts in different colours. Wearing more often means less washing means save money! Now I just have to decide which shirt. The ones at Off the Wall are so soft, but most have designs or slogans on them. Bleh. Gap may have some, I shall do an internet search!

- A black turtleneck:

- A statement ring. I still can't find the one I want. The Aldo store has had that pearly diamond one for almost a year, and still hasn't gone on sale. I love the look, but when trying it on... not so much. Too bad.
- A big, bold, black bag. Preferably the size of my O'Neill one which I cram my life into. Only black because it's wintertime.

- A black tank top. Long enough to almost cover my bum.

- A black blazer. Fitted, and perfect for pins!
- An adorable party clutch, perfect for any dress. So, I'm thinking black maybe with a bow?



- I keep looking at Design*Sponge, and all the before and after pictures make me want to go get some crappy furnitue and totally redo it. Too bad we already have a gorgeous couch and loveseat set, a few table sets (the kitchen one has really funky chairs) and the light in the dining room I already adore.
I guess this means I will have to funky up my desk, make some artwork, and possibly funkify my Walmart mirror. Joy.



Need:

Still looking for a massage place. I'm thinking maybe the college here, and then there will be discounts! But can I make Niall come with me? Or maybe a girlie friend.

Christmas presents!
Though my family is not doing them, I still need to get something $20 or under for Amanda, and I have NO idea what to get for Niall!!
