gift thyself

Illustration by Garance Dore’

If you’re anything like me…

You do ALL the holiday shopping, wrapping, hiding gifts, and prep-work. I have two little boys, and no current love interest … which means Mommy gets all but forgotten. So, I think we should take matters into our own hands. Buy yourself a gift this year, wrap it, and put it under the tree. Don’t wait until Christmas morning, hoping someone will remember to get you a special gift, and be disappointed that you only have a box of chocolates from the neighbor.

Spoil Yourself

Gift yourself something you know no one else will think of, something you LOVE to get. I like to get PJ’s, usually flannel and very unattractive, but this year I’m thinking I want to embrace my feminine side. A beautiful silk robe and nightie. Philip Lim has some beautiful silk pieces that feel lovely against your skin. So tell me… what would you buy yourself this year?
