10 Wants I Absolutely Adore

– 26 November , 2010Posted in: Minimalism

I don’t NEED any of these things, but.. damn it they make my days special

I guess you can really see my priorities: Being Organized, Blogging, Wearing Clothes, Wearing Makeup, Traveling and Eating.

Hah!

From Left to Right, Top to Bottom with prices!

Dark Brown Knee-High Ecco Boots: $300 – My Holy Grail of Boots.
Lululemon Remix Hoodie in Purple: $98 (being discontinued) — Wonderful for Traveling.
Marcelle Bronze Eyeliner: $10 – Makes me look alive.
Sony Vaio i7 Laptop: $1700 – I love the huge keyboard.
Club Monaco Double-Hang Golden Necklace: $50 — This necklace goes with everything.
Rose Lip Balm Salve: $9 — It’s just petroleum jelly and perfume, but it’s so nice.
Sushi/Sashimi Dinners: $20 — Mmmmm….. Nom nom nom.
Apple iPod Touch (+ the AwesomeNotes app!!): $500 — Organizes my life like crazy.
Forever 21 Large Studded Ring: $10 (came in a set of 3) — Bold but simple.
GPS Nuvi 255W: $250 — I am directionally-challenged so this is a MUST-HAVE when I go to a new city.

What are some wants you cannot do without?

I'm a 20-something year old girl who lived out of a single suitcase in 2007, and now I'm living with less, but only with the best. You don't have to get rid of everything to become a minimalist! Minimalism can help simplify and organize your life, career, & physical surroundings. You can read more about me as a minimalist. Or come and visit my other blog Fabulously Broke in the City where I got out of $60,000 of debt in 18 months, earning $65,000 gross/year.

My Asus has that kind of keyboard…so now it’s hard to type on one that’s all cramped (though it certainly was not $1700

Aaah, those are some good wants. I haven't had sushi or sashimi in quite a while (translation: month or two) this has to change A.S.A.P!

Wants I LOVE but don't need:

Computer- when I'm without a computer and/or internet at home it feels like a very close friend is missing.

Canon Rebel T1i DSLR- I rarely leave home without it. I take pictures of EVERYTHING. Everywhere.

Chapstick: I like an 100% organic one I buy locally and bath and body work's CO Bigelow's tinted lip balm, its loaded with peppermint oil and really works.

Hand Lotion: I hate operating with dry hands and use hand lotion several times a day.

Dentyne Ice Chewing Gum: A strong gum that clears the sinuses better than those wimpy Altoids. I always have a pack nearby and chew it between meals and strong drinks.

Tea: My work station always has a trey with a canister of tea, teapot, and teacup. I brew several cups of green tea daily. Oolong tea is my favorite, it tastes smokey, has a higher caffeine content than most tea, and just a teaspoon of high quality leaves can be re-steeped for 5-10 more cups of tea!

  Pacifica smells amazing. I almost bought the line of perfumes when I was in Whole Foods but then I realized I had to use up my own perfume first.
  
  Mmm artichokes

I have the hoodie and love it. Wear it daily. I have my eyes on a pair of $300 Born boots too.
