Sorry this post is a day late. I was at a work conference for the past 2 days and my coworkers and I decided to go to the Universal City Walk on Tuesday night. We had SO much fun and got back pretty late, so I just decided to rest and sleep instead.
Moving on! I don’t know about you guys BUT I consider birthday’s to be pretty special. This is in contrast to Hubs because he always says “It’s just another day” *shaking my head.* From the time I was a little girl, my family always made each person’s birthday special. The birthday queen (me, my mom and two sisters) or king (in my dad’s case) got to choose the activities for the day including a special place for dinner. I absolutely LOVE Mexican food so I have been going to Javier’s Cantina for the past 4-5 years as my birthday dinner of choice. I think I may have to switch it up this year because Mediterranean food in my new jam (still deciding ;).
Because my birthday is right around the corner, I decided to share my birthday wish list with you guys. It’s super convenient that my birthday is coming up, because almost all of these items are things I’m currently loving for the upcoming fall season.
1.Canon DSLR Camera. This is the one I want the most. My blog is starting to pick up and I know a nice camera will take it to the next level. I have done tons of research on the best camera and actually love the Canon T5i, Canon T6 and Canon T6i. Fingers crossed that I get this one. 🙂
2.Smith and Cult Nail Polish (color: Vegas Post Apocolyptic). This is the nail polish I have been raving about on my Instastories. I had it on for a full week without one single chip. Now, I have had it on for 10 days now and still only have minimal chipping.
3.Smith and Cult Nail Polish (color: Dark like Me). I also want the base coat to make it stay on longer.
4.Kate Spade Leopard Heels. I have wanted this style for awhile now because I love the pointed toe and the bow!
5.Express Distress Jeans. I currently do not have a pair of distressed jeans, but am starting to LOVE the look of them. I also love this pair and right now Express is having an amazing deal where if you buy 1 pair of jeans you get the second for $9.90.
6.Ivanka Trump Over the Knee Boots. I have been in search of a good pair of over the knee boots. I love these because they tie in the back (that helps to make them stay up) and have pearl detailing on the heel.
7.Ole Hendrickson Total Truth Eye Cream. I really need a good eye cream, and have been using a sample of this for awhile. It’s super hydrating and not too heavy on my skin.
8.Vince Camuto Bootie. I saw these during the Nordstrom sale and fell in love! The gray color is perfect for fall and they look super comfy.
9.Bauble Bar Tassel Earrings. I have totally been eyeing these for awhile. I love the style and the brightly colored beading.
10.Kate Spade Steamline carry on Luggage. This one is a stretch because it’s SUPER expensive. I saw this awhile back on Instagram and totally fell in love. It was too cute not to share with you guys.
11.Sam Edelman Pump. I am in need of a good pair of black heels. To my surprise, I don’t even have a pair of black pumps! I love these because the style is classic and Sam Edelman makes such great quality heels.
12.PJ short pajama set. Really, any PJ short set is on my wish list. I saw this one and loved the polka dots, but I also love the sets from Victorias Secret.
13.Henri Bendel Cross Body Bag. I mean, how CUTE is this bag?! I just love the stripes with all of the colors. This bag is currently ON SALE for $111.
14.Michael Kors T-Strap Heel. These have been a favorite style of mine for a little while. I love the color and the material. Perfect for date night!
15.Wanted Wedge Sneaker. Ok, I LOVE these. I’m always running around in sneakers, and I like that these have a wedge heel. I can’t decide if I like rose gold or white better. Let me know which one you like in the comments below!
16.Kaitlyn Pan Rockstud Heel. I am completely in love with the Valentino Rockstud Heel however they are SO SO expensive. When I found these, I fell in love. They have great review and look exactly like the real ones. AND they are only $114 (compared to the real ones which are $1,000).
17.Bauble Bar Earrings. I love the bright color and the style of these. I couldn’t choose between these earrings or the ones marked #9.
18.Henri Bendel Leather Strap Bracelet. Maroon is my favorite color for fall and the detailing on this bracelet is super feminine, yet edgy at the same time.
19.Twist Front Top. This olive-colored top is so perfect for fall. I love the twist detail and the material looks really soft,
20.Henri Bendel Convertible Tote. Can you tell that I’m obsessed with Henri Bendel? This bag is amazing because it is actually 2 bags in 1. It comes as a large tote bag (as seen in the photo) but can also convert into a small cross body bag. How cool is that!?
21.B.P. Leopard Scarf. I have been loving leopard lately and a scarf if the perfect accessory to add some flare to any outfit
22.MAC Girls Palette. I am such a sucker for eyeshadow palettes and this one is gorgeous. I love the brown and bronze tones. I also love this purple and gray colored palette as well. Which one is your favorite?
23.Lauren Loraine Striped Heels. These are more summer-y BUT they are just way too cute to pass up. I love the striped details with the rhinestoned brooch. Right now, they are on sale for $50!
24.Cranberry Moto Jacket. Moto jackets are becoming one of my favorite outerwear pieces. I am ALWAYS cold, so a cute jacket is super handy.
25.Long Ribbed Cardigan. The long style of this sweater is so fun. I have been buying longer sweaters lately because they are so comfy and I love clothing that covers my hips.
I hope you love my top picks as much as I do! Today’s verse of the day is about perseverance. Sometimes, we don’t always get what we hope for right away and this is a good verse to remember in those times. “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction and faithful in prayer.” – Romans 12:12.
Have a wonderful Thursday!
XOXO Elizabeth Morgan

Happy birthday! Growing up my family always made me feel so special on my birthday so I completely understand about making your birthday special. My husband has slowly learned this because he is like your husband and says it is just another day.
