in the past i’ve done a favorite things starting december 1st… like oprah’s, but better (i think i’ve used that joke before too.). i posted one thing every day up until christmas. well, this year i just didn’t do it. then i got a formspring question about whether i was doing it this year and i didn’t realize anyone had even missed it (some of you are shaking your head all, “bridget. we didn’t miss it. which is why you only got ONE formspring question about it.). so, to please everyone (maybe) i’m going to consolidate it into one whopping post right here, right now. shazam! here goes:
1. minnetonka double fringe boot (have these, love them) 2. benetint by benefit (like you just ate a red popsicle, thank you very much) 3. asos dress with cut out back (gorgeous, don’t even get me started) 4. vitamix (it’s pricey but it is a powerhouse when it comes to smoothies) 5. smile embroidery hoop 6. emerson quote print 7. jbrand red skinny jeans 8. it’s complicated dvd (love this movie, soundtrack and all) 9. burt’s bees royal jelly daily cleanser (smells divine, i love it) 10. canon 24-70 lens 11. asos lace dress (all these dresses and i’ve got no party fancy enough to go to! dang!) 12. crankypants longies (for parker, that is) 13. modcloth miss mesa verde wedge (they may make me a giant but i love them) 14. burberry brit (my favorite perfume) 15. forever 21 floppy hat 16. adobe lightroom 17. j.r. watkins soap in orange (steve says it smells like orange crush soda… and that’s a good thing) 18. anthro glass berry basket (cuuutest) 19. j.crew pajamas
so, that’s it. the long and short of it.

Elizabeth says
BENETINT. Yes! I discovered that stuff in my Birchbox. I put it on my cheeks as blush and it never goes away! Love that shit.
Also, now I'm gonna need Lightroom. I saw your convo with Kate. I gotta step up my photog game.
Petchie says
I love everything, my favorite this is the dress, so cute!

I spy Lightroom! You won't regret it.
Shannon says
This is a semi-related question to your post (which has great stuff): how do you make the collage picture like that so you can put multiple pictures into one layout and make it organized? Whoa, I just confused myself. Is it something you can do online or do you use a program?
K says
such a great movie! and those pjs looks amaze.
christy says
I always like your favourite things posts, glad you didn't skip it this year!
bridget says
@robyn, i will take the compliment. i think it's just cause it's made me crazier?
@elizabeth, those boxes rule. it had benetint in it?!
@shannon, photoshop!
Erin says
J. Crew pajamas are on my list too. Will my husband justify spending 150 dollars on flannel pjs that cover my entire body? Doubtful.
p.s. I love It's Complicated. The dance scenes just kill me.
Shannon :: The Scribble Pad says

I'm still waiting for the point where you open your arms wide and shout…weeeee havvvvve a giveawaaaaay! and then you give every blogger that readers all of this stuff for freeeeee!!
kidding.
but it would be rad wouldn't it?
great list lady. you have got amazing taste.
bridget says
@kate, ohhhh that would be awesome. like i said, like oprah but BETTER.
jenni says
i love your picks!!! all of them!! the mushroom pants (for parker that is) are adorable!! i think mason needs those from santa this year!!
i totally would have missed this and been knocking down your door about it, except i don't think i started reading your blog until last spring. so i didn't know about your favorite things at xmas!! you better believe next year, come december 1, i will be like "hey!! what's your favorite thing today???"
Elizabeth says
Yeah girl. Benetint. And now I'm never going back to what I was using. It is a pale girl's best friend.
Devon @ TheMermaidChronicles says
ooh hope you get the vitamix! It's the best! It will change your cooking!
michaela says
do you have the canon 24-70mm f2.8 lens? i need this! right? like more than food and water!
here's my problem…he's always the problem, that husband of mine. he cannot see its value. UGH.
Dancing Branflake says
I love Burberry Brit! And that floppy hat looks completely Chanel. Love your list- kind of wish Parker's pants came in adult size.
bridget says
@devon, lucky me i actually do have it! but that doesn't mean i have all the things on this list.
for instance @ michaela, i do not have that lens. BUT WANT IT.
Keri says
i have that emerson quote print on my wall. love it. love it so much that I took a picture of the print for the background on my phone. /dork.
benetint..I really want to try it. I feel like graduating from college means I need to stop using lip smackers? haha, like that will happen.. ANYWAY. Sephora sells benetint in lip gloss tubes with the tint at one end and clear gloss at the other. I've never been so tempted to spend $20 on lip gloss. Is it worth it?
laurenjeanallece says
Damn that ASOS cutout dress… Good thing I already had my work Christmas party or I would have been ALL over that!
(and right there with you on It's Complicated… I've lost count on how many times I've watched that!)
Emily Baker says
I remember when I saw "It's Complicated" in the theater. I sat and laughed my ass off. GREAT film.
Casey says
awesome. love the berry basket and the benetint! wish lists should happen all year round…
Marjorie says
yum….love it all! any chance some of these things will be under the tree? 😉
sara says
nice round-up!!
and it's complicated?!
one of my favorite favorites!!
a bunch of it was filmed in SB – right in front of and behind where i used to work (pre-bonzo) so we got to watch them shoot and saw meryl and steve… fun fun.
i've seen that movie a zillion times and it never gets old… love it!
xx
wishful nals says
love asos dresses – and with a cut out back? sounds gorgeous! who says you need a fancy party. i love getting dressed up just to stay at home.. sometimes. 🙂
kelly ann says
I love It's Complicated! Everyone in that movie is so stellar. Meryl is my hero… siiiiigh. She's basically perfection.
Those double fringe boots. Man oh man. I would love a pair of those!
The Rigolosos says
I have that Watkins soap in lemon and I love it. And I'd be a happy recipient of the rest. In case you turn into Oprah on us.
Ahn says
if you get that lens send it to me as a baby gift. thanks.
