Luciana misses NYC. She’ll be reminded of the good ole days with a wooden box filled with top-notch, Brooklyn-made artisanal goods, like McClure’s pickles, Liddabit sweets, Jacques Torres caramel popcorn, and Bklyn Larder peanut brittle.
Available at bklynlarder.com, $85.
After taking care of a tot all day, Michelle deserves to kick up her heels. We recommend she do so in a pair of sweet ballet flats with faux fur pom-poms.
Available at gap.com, $25.
Some of you, like Kathy, are extremely specific. She dictates that “a nice, long, soft (not cashmere, Santa, I’m allergic) sweater in blue, red, or both” is at the top of her list. We think this chunky Steven Alan cardigan will keep her warm without causing her to break out in hives.
Available at stevenalan.com, $265.
Drinking from the fountain of youth, Navina wishes for a buddy from FAO Schwartz’s Muppet Workshop. “It was a toss-up among diamond earrings, a Louis Vuitton bag, and the Crayola Glow Dome. What? I can like luxury and still be a kid at heart. It’s called multitasking.”
Available at fao.com, $130.
Little Zoo Shoes specializes in hand-painted toddler kicks, but this doesn’t stop Lisa from jonesing for a pair. Good thing their artist can paint a monkey or alligator on a pair of canvas sneaks, Mary Janes, or high-tops for adults.
Available at littlezooshoes.com, $25-$40.
Emily is drooling over “a $500 pair of Fiorentini + Baker boots that I will never be able to afford.” Sorry, friend, these stacked-heeled, buckled boots are too sweet not to post.
Available at gravitypope.com, $548.
Kim needs a wardrobe boost — she has only three pairs of jeans/pants and some tops — and knows it. We think a floral Tucker by Gaby Basora dress will add some much-needed flirtiness to her closet.
Available at tuckerbygabybasora.com, $325.
We highly doubt Alia wants us to sing her a lullaby. So to get “a perfect eight hours of sleep,” she needs a dab of Amala’s lavender concentrate on her pulse points and a cozy kantha quilt.
Concentrate, available at amalabeauty.com, $20; quilt, available at abchome.com, $215.
Our beefy trainer, Sven, is indisposed at the moment. Jill will have to settle for a tricked-out Polar FT60 to fulfill her need for a “good heart-rate monitor, so I can keep track of calories burned at the gym.”
Available at amazon.com, $169.
Trish desires an iPad. So does everyone else. Enough said.
Available at apple.com, $499-$829.
New mom Michelle wants a Beaba Babycook (that sounds wrong, no?) that can steam, blend, defrost, and warm food for Junior. Mama also wants a brand new (diaper) bag. We think OiOi’s ikat messenger is chic enough that no one will suspect it’s equipped with an insulated bottle holder, large changing mat, and wipes case.
Beaba Babycook, available at amazon.com, $135; diaper bag, available at oioibabybags.com, $140.
Ciranne has her heart set on princess-cut diamond earrings ($425) and a tennis bracelet ($4,850). She also wants a new MacBook Air, but we preferred shopping for gems.
Available at doyledoyle.com.
Not everyone digs ostentatious cocktail rings — Michelle can keep it classy with a simple and elegant sterling silver and ruby ring from Sundance.
Available at sundancecatalog.com, $195.
Sara has a love of rock and loves to rock out. She’ll enjoy jamming on Music Man’s new John Petrucci JPX-6 guitar, which celebrates ten years of instrumental collaboration between the brand and the Dream Theater guitarist.
Available at guitarcenter.com, $2,450.
A woman of few words, Gloria hopes she wakes up to a bike under the tree. We’re pretty sure a retro cruiser like the Globe Roll 2 will leave her speechless.
Available at cyclechoice.com, $830.
