Birthday Wishlist

Oh hey you guys, I'm turning 27 next week!! Which means my (hopefully) amazing Olympics birthday extravaganza is this weekend.  I.am.so.excited.  Some people are always birthday people, but I tend to go back and forth. Last year I didn't do anything for my birthday, just a quiet dinner with Jeff.  The year before I went crazy and hit the town with 50 of my closest friends.  For my 21st, which should have been crazy, I stayed in and studied (I had a midterm the next day).  This year though, I'm going big.

My mom has been on me since about two days after Christmas to come up with a birthday wishlist.  I've been having a hard time coming up with these lately, which you would think would be the opposite since I'm always posting about things I want on here.  I think the issue is that if I really want something, unless it's really expensive, I'll just buy it myself.  I've been consciously holding back a little this month so as to leave something on my wishlist.  Here are a couple of the things in my brain right now:



Do you have the same problem coming up with gift ideas for yourself?

  1. I go through the same thing. Most of the time I buy the things I need/want unless they are expensive. Coming up with gifts is hard! I really love that vest though! Hope you enjoy your birthday party this weekend!

  3. I think your Olympic party sounds so fun, I can't wait to hear how it goes! Wishlists are definitely hard, especially as I get older. I'm like, "Mom, I'm an adult. If I want or need something I've probably already bought it!"

  4. An Olympic party sounds fantastic! What a great idea!
    I'm the same way. It seems like all year you can think of things you want for your birthday, then when it comes, making a wishlist is impossible!

  10. That vest is such a good pick. I've seen these around for years now, and it seems they have a way of just staying in style. So effortless and cute! Happy early birthday :)

  11. Happy Almost Birthday Kristina! Hope you enjoyed your birthday bash this weekend! I go back and forth on birthdays too. Like I really don't like them...they make me depressed lol....and I just want to stay home and cry haha. But another part of me just wants to go out and celebrate and make it memorable. (So I hope you did the latter cause you deserve it girl). As for your wishlist, you can never go wrong with a pair of olive skinnies:)! Rita @ www.CoastWithMe.com

  12. That ampersand is super cute! My mom always gets mad at me at gift-giving times (bday, xmas) because I'm the exact same, when I want something I just buy it myself (that's so bad, I know). She always complains that she never has anything to get me ahhaha
