all i want for christmas is...
1. drop it modern back drop
i have been drooling over drop it modern backdrops for awhile now. for the most part, the pictures i take are outside because i don't have a studio and i don't have a good background for indoors.
the drop it modern blog teases me with all of their wonderful ideas and settings for using these backdrops and the frigid weather we have been having lately reminds me just why i need one ASAP.
check out the drop it modern blog to see some of the great ways they have used these backdrops to create beautiful photos.
2. toms
i have heard nothing but rave reviews about toms. they remind me of shoes i wore in middle school. i loved those shoes and i am so glad something similar has surfaced. there are so many to choose from that i don't know which pair i would want first.


the best part about toms..."with every pair you purchase, toms will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. one for one."
3. bogs


don't all women love shoes? i don't know of a single person who actually own bogs weather proof boots, but when i stumbled across then, i fell in love with all of the great pattern choices. they look like regular rain boots but all bogs are 100% waterproof and warm down to sub-zero temperatures.
4. dansko penelope boots
yes, another pair of footwear. i need a good pair of boots and dansko boots are a pair that i can dress up or down. not way down though.
i love the simple details on the dansko boots and the unique tie front. they come in three different colors. i'll take all three!
5. epiphanie camera bag
i considered purchasing an epiphanie camera bag earlier this year and then decided against it because i am just cheap like that. spending large amounts of money on one item frightens me. however, it is about time i stopped carrying a purse, a camera bag, a diaper bag and a gymnastics bag around with me when i venture out with my little maraschinos.
6. inception
inception was the absolute best movie i saw this year and i have not stopped thinking about when i would be able to see it again. i could run to target and buy it right now, but then that would be selfish of me to do right here at christmas.
i shared it with you once before, but watch this trailer again to see what you will be missing if you don't totally want this movie too.
so there you have it.
my christmas wish list.
a girl can dream right?
