Weekly Wants: November 2020 — @extraextrastyle

in 2006, like thousands of housewives all across America, I read The Secret . It’s been a minute, so forgive me if I’m a little rusty, but I think it went a little something like this: 1. Ask 2. Believe 3. Receive. If I recall, this concept of visualization worked for everything from a new husband to a new car to a new life.

So, my Weekly Wants collage is back (along with my kindergarten-level Photoshop skills) and I’m going to Secret the shit out of it:

Dear Universe: I want this Ralph Lauren sweater. I believe I deserve this Ralph Lauren sweater. Thank you for sending me this Ralph Lauren sweater.

What else do I believe I deserve? See below!

Smythson Soho Notebook - I’m a little bit Smythson obsessed. When I was in London last year, I stopped by their store and bought a 2020 diary. They recently ran a contest on their Instagram page, and…I WON A 2021 DIARY! it’s the only thing I’ve ever won in my life, and now I’ve got Smythson tattooed on my heart forever and ever, Amen.

Polo Ralph Lauren V-Neck in Forest - Have you ever tried to find a good, basic green sweater? Don’t bother - I’ve done the work for you. This one’s going to break navy blue’s chokehold on my closet.

Fendi Baguette Wallet - But Ryan: Isn’t this for women? Don’t you have enough wallets? Do you still want this? Yes, No, and Yes. I love that looks like a mini version of Fendi’s iconic baguette bag. Plus doesn’t this color just look….expensive?

JCRT Chore Jacket in Yellow - Do I really have to explain this one? Just look at it! And then imagine me in it! <3

Cle de Peau Long-Lasting Hydrating Veil - Fellas, don’t you hate when you’re rushing out the door to your living room for your first Zoom and you don’t have time to put powder on? The worst. It’s on those days I use this primer: blurs my pores, hydrates, and it even has SPF. Plus like everything Cle de Peau, the packaging is chic as hell.

Jonathan Adler LSD Candle - If you think I’m not using this as a stash jar once the candle is gone, you’re wrong.

Flamingo Winter Care Kit - A few weeks ago Flamingo sent me a selection of their body moisturizers. I tried - and loved - them all, especially the scent! I emailed the PR team to say thank you for sending them to me and commented about the scent and mentioned that I loved it so much that I wish it came in candle form. NOW IT COMES IN CANDLE FORM!!!!!!!! The Winter Care Kit includes three formulations of Flamingo’s j’amazing moisturizers and a limited edition candle. Buy it. Buy IT. BUY IT.
