There are some tights out there called False Pure Matte?

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 12/11/2017 22:02

Oh sorry, got it, it was a typo.

I'd love Christmas somewhere warm with just DH and the DC, eating lovely food without trying to recreate a 'traditional' dinner than none of us like and nothing made from dried fruit that sets my teeth on edge. All with no guilt about leaving behind the relatives that we usually spend the day with. We'd not bother with presents but instead have an amazing time together whilst we are all off work, the same as we do on our summer holiday. There would be no Christmas Crackers or enforced 'fun'. I'm thinking of changing my userame to Grinch!

PNGirl · 12/11/2017 22:24

Hmmm. I wanted a Burberry coat but I bought myself one last week. So...

These boots: link
A Mulberry Alexa
Some new Levis
A black cashmere scarf
A grey cashmere scarf
A Tatty Devine vampire bat necklace

A laser treatment for light and blonde hair.

Slinky Flowers

I want a Rolex, I’ve been dropping massive hints to DP. If I get that, I’ll never ever want another present again.

Oh and a bottle of Luna oil.

A personal trainer/physio, who would drag me out of bed two mornings a week and get me exercised and de-ached and de-floppied and fit. And Brendan, or the dark-haired chunky one whom you don't see any more, or Kevin or Pasha or even Anton to teach me to dance.

MinesaPinot · 13/11/2017 09:02

So sorry for your loss Slinky flowers]

Slinky Sad Flowers

ChocolatePHD · 13/11/2017 10:22

I'd like a Porsche Cayenne in black please.
And a new bathroom which can be magically installed in the blink of an eye with no builder hassle.
And some nice cashmere sweaters with coloured stars etc on them.
And a pair of sand coloured Timberland boots.
And a new carpet.

HolgerDanske · 13/11/2017 10:31

Oh slinky Sad Flowers

Remus that VW jacket is gorgeous!

My list would be so long. I think for my biggest wish I would have to put: not to want anything for the whole of next year, and maybe the one after that, too. I am a magpie and always want the next beautiful thing, and I really can’t afford the things I want.

ReeOkAh · 13/11/2017 13:27

Oh slinky Flowers I am so sorry for your loss.

Floisme · 13/11/2017 13:37

Damn you lot, I'm supposed to be working but I've just lost an hour of my life to fantasy Christmas research. Anyway...

I've linked some of these on other threads but either this coat
Or this one
Or this one in case I can't find my second hand Aquascutum, although I'd need to check the colour in real life first. Just one of them would do, I don't want to be greedy Smile

I bloody love these but in all honesty, I have no need for any more tailored trousers so maybe these instead
Or possibly these
I know they probably don't look anything special onscreen but I'm kind of over wow! clothes. I'd rather have amazing everyday things plus I bet you could clean the oven with them and still wear them straight afterwards.

And then maybe this I have a second hand Brora jumper and I regret to say it's nothing like high street cashmere.

And then of course, world peace.

Flowers for you slinky I'm sorry. Christmas can be shit sometimes.

JanetStWalker · 13/11/2017 13:46

Just seen this and I'm in lust. Damn you Chanel!

slinkysaluki · 13/11/2017 17:29

Sorry if I brought the thread down I was thinking out loud. Thanks for the flowers. My wish list:

Cashmere snood, socks and gloves.

Fendi Theorema perfume (discontinued 😞)

A buttery soft suede or leather waterfall leather jacket in a dive grey colour

A chunky giant knitted throw

Chanel cosmetics

A white BMW series 3

A purebred feathered Saluki Wink
An original Lady of Shalott painting
Large sheepskin rug in blush pink

A yellow diamond ring

That will do for now ☺

A years supply of my favourite perfume (Coco Mademoiselle)
A never ending supply of Kindle books
A chauffeur for the year

Less frivolously, DH's health to be back to normal and for him to kick cancer's arse.

ColinsVeryJolly · 13/11/2017 18:10

A Mulberry Alexa in just the right shade of grey or burgundy.
