Just as most women have a list of celebrities they dream about sleeping with, we all lust after a few items that we almost certainly won’t receive, even if we weren’t the least bit naughty this year. Read The Frisky staff’s wishes below, then tell us what you’re dreaming of in the comments ...
“I have about 10,000 dresses—buying them has helped me recover from my breakup, no joke—and this one would be perfect for New Years Eve (coincidentally, the day I got engaged, last year). Nothing saw ‘Boo-ya, you’re missing out, like a sweet, sparkly, cocktail dress.”—Amelia
BR Monogram Beaded Dress, $275, BananaRepublic.com
“I’ve begged for this bag for the past 5 years. One day it will happen. I love it because Chanel is classic and never goes out of style.”—Leigh
Chanel Large Flap Bag, Chanel.com

Catherine, there was this style blogger I loved, StyleBytes (she took her site down just after I discovered her in April) and she had this red bow tie she wore a lot around her wrist like a bracelet and in her hair as a headband and probably other ways, too. I’d get the plaid bow tie as a gift for yourself and just have fun with it.

If one of you doesn’t get me that Maybach, I’m going to be pretty pissed.

There’s the red bow tie! I miss Stylebytes. What happened to her?

@Wendy You know we wondered that—Catherine did some investigating. I think she and her husband maybe broke up and she moved to another city. Catherine?
@Susannah I will get you the Maybach, if you get me the original Aston Martin DB5 that James Bond drove.

That camera has me drooling. I’ll take a pass on the furs, though.
