One of the most longed for shows this season was Louis Vuitton’s F/W '14 collection.
TWELV'S CHRISTMAS WISH LIST #5: MANAGING EDITOR KRISTIN LIMOGES
1. Tom Ford Tabacco Vanille - $210 for 1.7 ounces - I'm obsessed with this scent, it's masculine and smells like vanilla, cocoa, tobacco flower, and wood rolled all together. I'm instantly enchanted by anyone wearing it.
2. Moscot Victoria Sunglasses in Black - $275 - My ideal sunnies for sprinting around town trying to find that perfect last-minute Christmas gift. Moscot is also one of the cutest fourth generation family-owned and operated companies around.
3. David Yurman - Cable Classics Bracelet with Black Onyx and Diamonds - $625 - One of TWELV's favorite jewelry brands, David Yurman, makes the most classic and wearable pieces and this black onyx and diamond cable bracelets is one of my favorites.
4. Mimi Holliday by Damaris in the Bisou Bisou collection - $100 for bra, $75 for underwear - Underpinnings are always a good idea, and this Bisou Bisou collection is beautiful and comfortable.
5. Be The Light NY in Spanish Saffron - $98 - Petra Nemcova's candle line has the most interesting candles, each glass container and scent inspired by a different country near and dear to her. Not only is she personally delightful and charming, the candles feel like an expression of her warmth. The Spanish Saffron is especially wonderful and has the most intoxicating and unexpected savory scent.
6. Equipment Silk Pajamas - $428 - I like my PJs silk, vintage-inspired and monogrammed.
7. Saint Laurent Leather Biker Jacket - $4,990 - I've spent my lifetime thus far searching for the perfect biker leather jacket. Just trust me here, people - this SL one is heaven. I would wear it like my dream boyfriend James Dean wore his- dark denim, white tees and a Rebel Without A Cause attitude.
8. The Row Chunky Wool-Cashmere Sweater - $1,390 - I mean, this thing is perfect. Perfect amount of slouch and comfort, just right length, long raglan sleeves. It's your fisherman sweater, injected with a model-off-duty coolness.
9. J Brand 811 Mid-Rise Skinny Leg in Ink - $158 - The perfect dark denim that flatters everyone and lasts forever.
10. Isabelle Bellis Spa - $400 and up - Isabelle Bellis and I are best friends forever, she just doesn't know it yet. She is famous for her two hour facials that make you look 10 years younger, but be prepared for the 6 month (but totally worth it) wait, which tells you exactly how talented this little French gem is.
11. Charlotte Olympia Kitty Cat Embroidered Velvet Slipper in Navy - $595 - My two favorite things in life are cats and slippers. Now if only this slipper had Grumpy Cat's face on it, I would buy enough for a lifetime.
12. Louis Vuitton Sofia Copola BB Bag - $3,700 - Quite possibly the most understatedly fabulous bag around, it's subtle yet has stature. And it's in collaboration with the absolute coolest lady around and LV muse, Sofia Copola. So, duh, of course it's perfect in every single way.
Bonus Stocking Stuffer! RODIN Olio Lusso Face Oil - $150 - This blend of 11 essential oils has cult status. And the creator, Linda Rodin, is one of the most badass and beautiful women. I'll take whatever she is selling.
