8 Things I Want for Christmas

As much as I adore Halloween, the minute the clock hits 12:00 AM on November 1st, my mind immediately jumps for excitement of the holiday season.  

With every holiday season, I sit down and type up my…

Holiday Wishlist

1) Books

I can’t even remember how little I was when I fell in love with reading. My Dad said I could go to other worlds by reading and I was instantly hooked. Reading books like The Hobbit showed me just how magical and elaborate a world could be. When I read books like A Walk to Remember, The Fault in Our Stars, Everything, Everything, or The Spectacular Now, I am completely mesmerized by the idea and feelings of love. 

Simply put, I love to read and I want to bring you along for the journey. So, stay tuned for the upcoming Dressing Room 8 Book Club (SUBSCRIBE to the Dressing Room 8 Newsletter to get all updates). For this holiday season, I will be getting new books to fall in love with. 

2) Jewelry 

Since last year, I have been OBSESSED with druzy (aka glittery) necklaces, earrings, and rings. I don’t see this obsession going anywhere. That means I definitely need to start  growing my collection of druzy collectibles.  

3) Technology 

My hubby is all about knowing the latest trend in the tech world. There are some new apps  I want to learn and appreciate during the holidays. Whenever I get some downtime (which isn’t much), I want to use my “fun” time to better myself. Why not have fun and better yourself at the same time? What are new apps or tech things you will be enjoying during the holidays? 

4) Movies

As you have been reading along, you know that I LOVE movies. Of course, I will be taking time to see movies at home and at the theater (shout out to Regal Ronkonkoma Stadium 9). Even as I write this blog, there are 6 movies I want to see TOMORROW. 

5) Home Decor

I am on a real hunt for finding a pillow that actually helps my sleep. If you have a recommendation, I would GREATLY appreciate your comments below. Before the end of the year, I need to find a pillow that I actually like and love. 

What am I looking for? 

1) Giant & fluffy 

2) Adequate firmness to support my neck AND 

3) Ability to last more than a couple of months

6) Music

There are several albums that I need to listen to over the holiday season. Currently, I am loving these very dope artists: 

Arlissa, Maleek Berry, Miss Eaves, Hailee Steinfield, Kerwin Du Bois, Machel Montano, D’Banj, Snow Tha Product, Jessie Reyez, Kendrick Lamar, Mr. Eazi, Ayo Jay, Major Lazer, Cardi B, Kehlani, Shakira, Nue, Logic, Wizkid, and William Singe

P.S. There are so many more artists currently on my playlist. This holiday season will surely be filled with TONS more music. 

7) Clothes 

My closet is ALWAYS growing and expanding. BUT…I definitely need to pick up my sexy clothing game. Am I the first person to buy lingerie? NO. If I want to change the answer to that question, it will be up to me to actively add pieces to my closet. Taking the time to find tasteful and beautiful items that match me and my personality is definitely, doable. So…I am excited about getting some sexy fun lingerie this Christmas. 

8) Learning Time

There is constantly new content and knowledge we can absorb and learn each and every day. Yes, the holidays are a great time to sit back and enjoy quality moments with our friends, family, and loved ones. BUT, it is also a great time to learn how to master social media tactics, sales strategies, upcoming market trends, business skills, and new content in YOUR industry. Are you going to take advantage of the holidays to invest in YOU?
