Unlike most of you who usually give and receive gifts this time of the year, over in my home this time is not exactly celebrated in the popular St. Nicholas praising, gift giving fashion. We usually wake up, go to church, and come home and have a family lunch.

This year however, something possesed my family to partake in this splendid gift giving idea and whats even better is we get to pick our own gifts, I’m done with my gift shopping as of 15 minutes ago and assembled a list of a few items I would love to recieve this Christmas and figured I’d share with you guys.

1. The Quoddy Deck boots are my craving at the moment and I can’t get enough of them, the brown colorway especially, I am willing to overlook the price because they just look too good to pass up.

2. I love socks, all kinds but this Camp socks by J.crew is perfect with its black toes and heathered bust.

3. I’ve walked into a sunglass hut for the past year and each time I tried on these tortoise clubmasters, they are going to be a great alternative to my all black everything polo shades.

4. The Wool trilby hat is going to be a great replacement for my fedora that has gone through hell in the last 5 years.

5. I’m tired of the crappy zoom on the 18-55mm so frankly its time to upgrade.

6. And the gift I will never get because it doesn’t exist, is the green J crew beanie I created on photoshop. they made the perfect beanie, just not the right colors.
