Everything I want

Emerging from my Substack hiatus to present a gift guide — a gift guide of everything that I want. Maybe it’s more of a wishlist and maybe this is a hint for all of my friends?

1. Benjamin Edgar’s Milled Aluminum Incense Bowl - I’ve admired this for years and he recently rereleased it. It’s on the very top of my list.

2. A vintage Japanese tea set

3. Therabody Compression Boots because I take lymphatic drainage seriously.

4. Vintage Fleming Eskildsen for George Jenson Silver Necklace

5. The perfect plaid flannel - *hint hint to my friends at Matteau*

6. Sandor’s Shampoo and Conditioner - This hair set by my friend Sabrina is the only one that doesn’t irritate my scalp, weigh down my waves, or strip my hair of oils. It’s perfect. I could always use a re-up.

7. Set of Enrico Franzolini for Knoll chairs - IDEAL CHAIRS

8. A low profile sneaker - When I travel, especially to colder or wetter climates (which is actually everywhere during the non-summer months because I live in perpetual 67 degree weather in LA), I need to wear a sneakers and I’ve struggled to find a pair that don’t make me feel like a child. The profile of this pair is really nice and it comes in different colors.

9. Fane’s Bra Bag in Latte - everything I want in a bag.

10. A multi-functional candle holder for the holidays and beyond - I must admit I already own this because I designed it but I had to sneak it in here. It’s the perfect gift this holiday season, which is precisely why I launched it last week. Get it for your holiday tablescapes. Get it for Hanukah, if you celebrate. Get it for everyday use.

11. Vintage Japanese Vase - My obsession with Japanese design never ends.

12. A coat I’ve been eyeing all season - *hint hint to my friends at Rohe*

13. A special candle - I was sent this candle in the black color last month and I have been lighting it nightly and I am dreading the day it runs out. I’m adding this other color to my wishlist. You can also buy refills.

14. A silk travel bag handmade in Gujarat!

15. Table lamp that I’ve had my eyes on for YEARS

16. Extra soft socks - I also have a red pair on my wishlist.

17. Frederik Fialin’s Douli Lamp

18. Why is it so hard to find a substantial scarf that I can wrap around me?

19. I missed out on this polo in the Mushroom color and I won’t let the Plum color get away.

20. A classic suede loafer
