5 Things…

Alright, so now I am really getting into the Christmas Spirit. I am so very excited to get my ‘Nog on, and other such festive things. This weeks 5 Things… are very exciting to me! Especially The Santa Clause! This weekend I watch this with the Stefani(e)s. We ate Greek, and sampled festive Godiva chocolates, and capped off the eve with this Christmas Classic. It may not technically be considered a classic, but for us in our generation it truly is. We realized that we are coming up on 20 years since the release of this movie — which is insanity! And it was fun watching while I was here visiting Ontario, cause it was actually filmed in Oakville {outside of Toronto}.

So here they are this weeks favorite things:

 

{1. TOPSHOP Sequin Velvet Dress}

So, I am going to play the redhead card here, I cannot walk past emerald green without owning it. And this dress is no exception! The mix of textures, the colors, the bling! Who wouldn’t want this dress?!?!

{2. Newlook Grey Fox Face Beanie}
Now as I said I am visiting the Toronto area, and the weather is quite different from Vancouver. It was sunny out so I decided to walk to my friend Joy’s house. Now I got about half way there, when I was forced to remember what I had learned back when I lived here. No matter how long my vintage wool coat, no matter how high my leather riding boots, no matter how cozy my handmade {by Joy} knit infinity scarf, if you do not wear a hat, you will die. I wish I had this hat, because just as I always say “put a fox on it – make it better!”

{3. Anna Sui Minnie Mouse Nail Polish}
On any given day, I die for Anna Sui’s Nail Polish bottles. But now you can adorn your nails in the colors of Queen Disney herself… Miss Minnie Mouse! Too cute to use, I would just keep her on my shelf, until the ultimate breakdown when I need this on my nails!

 

{4. MAC Masterclass Brush Collection}
These makeup brushes have revolutionized makeup application! They are ergonomically designed to keep hands in the proper position for optimal precision, as well as the fibres of the brush are perfectly created to pick up and evenly apply. These have been added to my Christmas list!

{5. The Santa Clause}
Like I said, I love this movie! It convinces me that Santa could exist, no matter how improbable it could be. I know it’s childish Naiveté, but I don’t care! I love to live in a world which believes in a magic so powerful to explain away logic for this jolly creature.

Plus it has JTT’s dad!
