the wish list

My second post for the entire month of November and instead of being about the many, many things I have to be thankful for this year, it is a wish list? Classy. But in my defense, my mother requested it (hi, Mom!). And this year it is all about giving this stay at home mom turned photographer some much needed style.

After six long years I no longer have children in diapers, which I think is a milestone worthy of a new bag. I am loving all the pretty, shiny things over at Kate Spade this year. I especially love the lines of this bag.

Necklaces, bracelets and earrings. Not the expensive stuff, but fun every day stuff to dress up my jeans, platinum rolex and basic black. Like the many oh so pretty things at White House | Black Market and Banana Republic.

Idole d'armani. Because it smells real pretty. And I like to smell pretty.

The Phillips iPod Docking Table Radio. Because our home is in need of more music, and this little guy is an iPod dock, CD player and radio all in one good looking little package.

The Sephora gift card. Simple and oh so fun to use.

And because my list would not be complete without a couple of photography related items:

The Nikon 50mm 1.4 lens. An upgrade to my beloved 50mm 1.8, offering better glass and all the potential of 1.4.

Since I have a bad habit of leaving my bulky, heavy and not so stylish camera bag filled with gear unattended in parks and on beaches while I shoot, I am thinking a shootsac would be a good investment. And that black and white cover is just plain adorable.

And because no list would not be complete without one ultimate fantasy item, the D700. A full frame pro camera body with insane high ISO capabilities. Isn't it just so pretty?
