Dear Santa...

I've tried to be a good girl all year as usual.

With varying levels of success. As usual. Well, we all have our bad days.

The Mister eventually forgave me for the scenes of carnage after I dyed my hair red. And I've promised to paint over the red patches that are still lingering.

So having said that, I just thought I'd gen you up on a few things I'm currently lusting over. Lets just say I wouldn't be too unhappy should these show up in a certain stocking on a certain 25th December...

Illamasqua has a big place in my heart, and I adore their brushes - I haven't been disappointed with any of them so far. So just the very thought of a Brush Roll from them fills my heart with joy... And then when I saw that the roll is so beautifully decorated with that image of Narcissus. Well. I was in Love. Properly. I've been practicing signing my name with Illamasqua as a surname and everything...

This little beauty will cost £95 when it is available on the Illamasqua site. But I'm Worth it *tosses hair*

Oh and hey Santa, while you are on the Illamasqua site you might wanna pick these up..

Apparently these are called Nail Quills (£35), and I think they are basically a very funky hand made nail tip.

I have no idea where I'd wear these.

Tesco's? Changing the oil in the car? Cleaning out the litter tray?

All I know is they are pretty, different and very collectible looking.

I'd treat them like Gollum would treat a certain gold ring.

My Preccccciouuuuusssss... I wants them!

Ahem.

I also would be very happy to try some of the new polishes from Illamasqua too... Like these which won the Nail Varnish contest...

Of course Christmas is a time for sharing, so the Mister might appreciate you popping these into the old sack as well...

This is from Bravissimo, appropriately is called Cheeky Monkey. I love Bravissimo - its the only shop I can trust to get bra's in my stupid size which don't look like they were made for a 100 year old housekeeper in a victorian novel...

Obviously though, I might get a bit chilly in that so maybe this dress from Dorothy Perkins (£60) which is an online exclusive might help...

I'd love to team that with some chunky tights, boots and this divine coat, also from Dorothy Perkins (£85)

I'd also be quite keen on waking up on Christmas morning and being able to style my hair with this, to finish of my glam look;

 I'd also love a back up bottle of this;

I was kindly sent a bottle of this by a friend who had it but found it didn't suit her skin, and I ADORE it. I've worn it every day. Is it work appropriate? Frankly, I don't care. I love it too much to be worried about things like that. The Mister likes it too, and it even goes well with my Haus of Gloi stuff...

There are also a few bits and bobs I'd love from Amazon...

I've been obsessed with this film since I saw it on FX a while ago. This is a Swedish film and is one of the best and most subtle yet tense and still bloody vampire films I've ever seen. It was recently given a hollywood makeover and is on cinema's now as "Let Me In" - the remake is not bad, but the original is so beautiful and haunting. Love. So if I could get it on disc I could finally remove it from the Sky+ box...

And I'd love to read this, mostly because I'd love to find out how Old Rusty Rockets managed to snare Katy Perry, and keep his Rocket from exploring other territories...

Ok, so Santa, I know I'm demanding. I don't expect to actually recieve ANY of this - I just fancied having a browse and sharing my dream shopping list. This year realistically the contents of my stocking will more than likely be a new George Foreman Grill with removable plates...

The Mister, who does all our cooking, uses this nearly every day, and I'm the lucky lady who gets to clean it... Those removable plates will make life a lot earlier. So one of these and some handcream? Bobs your Uncle!

What's on your Chrismas Wish List?
