Christmas Wishlist


Everyone's doing them right now so Stasie thought I might as well jump on the bandwagon (I do love a good wagon) and make up my Christmas wishlist.  This one's a bit of a twist, I guess, because I limited myself to products which are available online.  And since the winter sales are starting earlier and earlier - Hell, the packages have been arriving at Casa di Duck thick and fast this week - now is the perfect time to do some last minute shopping, or treat yourself to a new Christmas day outfit...  

This year I've found myself getting into prints in a pretty big way and I predict next year I'm going to be similarly obsessed, so my first choice for S/S 2012 would be these dark green snakeprint t-shirts and scarves by Jil Sander - and they're already available online (1 and 2 at Oki-Ni)!!  Who needs pre-ordering when the buyers are so on it?  Since my hooded Christopher Kane sample sale find I've started to come around to hoodies - finally my ears aren't permanently frozen - and this Givenchy hybrid is calling out to me (3 at Mr Porter).  2011 may have been for me the Year of the Clutch but I have a strong suspicion 2012 will be all about fur accessories.  I've been coveting this Jas M B shoulder bag (4 at Browns) with it's furry tuft for months and I recently discovered this Neil Barrett goat hair delight (5 at farfetch).  

I can never resist a strong graphic t-shirt and this modern floral from Stolen Girlfriends Club has lace-up sleeves and is more than a little Prince Pelayo (6 at Stolen Girlfriends Club)...  I mentioned it before but I'm still waiting for my secret admirer to send me this leather shoulder bag made by Ann Demeulemeester in collaboration with The Corner (7 at The Corner) - it's so casual luxe!  Ever since I saw it on the runway at LFW I've longed to fondle the soft quilted leather on this JW Anderson biker jacket and I know it would go with just everything (8 at The LN-CC).  Christmas time is all about the quirky comedy jumper (Hello my sweet Balenciaga) so I lurve this Nordic-cum-Kiss-Me-Quick style by Yohji Yamamoto (9 at The LN-CC).  And finally, at the end of a (short) winter's day, I just want to curl up in front of the fire, put on Ab Fab reruns and relax with the scent of a Diptyque Pomander candle burning in the background (10 at Liberty).  

What will Santa be stuffing down your stocking on Christmas morn?
