40th Birthday Lust List by fortytherapy
With my 40th birthday rapidly approaching & family constantly asking what I'd like for a present, I sat down with my ipad & starting trawling the net to see if I could give them any suggestions. There's quite a bit on my Polyvore set so I am in no way expecting to receive everything on it, it's more for my reference in case I ask folks to club together for one special gift!!
I'd love a classic black evening bag & although I adore the Marc by Marc Jacobs one & may have to hunt it down whilst in New York, the one from Zara is gorgeous too & would leave more pennies for other things!
After winning my box of goodies from Elemis last year, I've been in love with these products & would love to replace them. The night cream is not cheap though at £95 a pot, eeek!
I really would love a new watch more than anything. I've never been bothered about watches in the past (as displayed by my 21 year old Accurist divers watch currently on my wrist!) but recently, I've really fancied a lovely watch. I took a peek on The Watch Hut & found these watches by Tissot & Citizen, both of which I love. I have tried on the Tissot watch but not the Citizen so I need to try & hunt one down as I love the pop of teal on the face.
Next up are these fabulous rings from Thomas Sabo. I love big, bold & quirky rings - hence the skull ring! - & there are some beautiful ones on the website, I could've chosen so many more.
Jo Malone Wood Sage & Sea Salt cologne, need I say more? This scent is delicious & I can wear it without it giving me a pounding headache within an hour, a problem I have with a lot of other perfumes so I might have to get some from Duty Free!
Now the camera is a bit of a cheat as my hubby very kindly bought it for me last year but it had been on my list for a while so I kept it in!! It's such a fab wee camera that offers just as much as a DSLR but without the changeable lenses. I wanted something more compact that would fit in a smaller cross-body bag on my holidays as I would otherwise have to take a whole other camera bag if I hauled my DSLR around with me! I love the funky retro styling of it & the red is fab.
And to finish, no birthday is complete without a lipstick or two from MAC. I'll be in NYC just 2 days after my birthday so I will hold off & get some whilst I'm there as they are a lot cheaper in the States, even with the sales tax added on!
Sorry there's not links to everything but my PC is about to crash & burn I think - it's taken me two %&*("@+ hours to just get this far, it's soooooo slow :(
What did everyone else get on their birthdays (not specifically 40th birthdays!!)
