DH is insisting that he buy me a Xmas gift even though we have decided to purchase a new Mac laptop as our almost 9 year old iMac is finally dying (will be posting about this soon).

I have a few ideas, but would like a few more.

Clothing item you’ve been itching to buy but haven’t bought? Jewelry? Handbag? Money towards the camera you want?

Something from Lilly Pulitzer. I'm partial to their Luxletic zipper jackets. They wear well.
A few splurge items from Sephora. The Hourglass Illuminating Powder is all that. Fenty Uncuffed liquid lip is fabulous color. It Cosmetics CC Cream. It Tightline is a holy grail for me. It brushes. Wayne Goss Brushes.
Title Nine zippered sweaters. Great bold patterns, colors and weights. Dresses are great too. Very flattering.
Lands End Cashmere Sweater. LE makes great Cashmere. Durable, soft, and not sheer.

A massage and/or facial (depending on the cost where you are).

Clothing or shoes (this is the favorite cashmere I bought this year, is more than the range, but AT has sales all.the.time.) https://www.anntaylor.com/cashmere-turtleneck-tunic-sweater/484588?skuId=26302294&defaultColor=2222&catid=cata000011

Stuff from Sephora

bluetooth headphones if you don't already have them (airpods to go with the mac?)

A set of Wayne Goss eye brushes

Or the new Sonia G set that was just released

Maybe a Pat McGrath Mothership palette

A nice new pair of rain boots.

Earrings or a necklace maybe.

A massage gift card including tip.

I asked for new workout shoes, a new purse, and ulta or Sephora gift card, nice earrings. All could be within that range.

Booties? Or, if you enjoy cooking, a sous vide gadget. Maybe a The North Face or Patagonia jacket. On the low end, Haflinger slippers (I love mine). I like the theatre tickets suggestion, but I'm sure those would be more than $150 knowing where you live.

2nd the Hunter rain boots suggestion. SoCal doesn’t rain that much so it feels like a splurge to get a a pair. But when it does the boots are so comfy!

Pretty gold or silver earrings or a nice jacket to go with the different Rent the Dress dresses you like to get.

Last year I got a nice wool blanket. I still love it.

I'd probably want a Nordstrom or Boden gift card or a gift card to the massage place I go to-- one 90 minute massage is $69.

$69??? Wow. I wish I knew about that place when I lived in SoCal!

Thanks all for the suggestions. I ended up telling him the following:
*Nesco Foodsaver, Wirecutter’s choice (I have wanted a food saver for years!), $55 or so on Amazon.
*Kendra Scott Sophia earrings, and Elisa necklace set, $85 on Kendra Scott’s website.
*Rothy’s point ballet flats in twilight metallic or persimmon, $145.
*Manduka yoga mat, $36 (this looks to be the thinnest one they make, which is what I want because I don’t like thick ones).

What would be on my wishlist:

Long lightweight down coat
Vitamin D light
Sash Bag purses, I'm totally converted and that's all I carry now
Essential Oils (I use Plant Therapy and am pretty addicted)
Sephora or Ulta gift card because I need makeup
Barefoot Dreams cardigan
Possibly a Get Your Pretty On membership; I enjoy them but struggle with spending the cash myself

Does it have to be an actual gift. 1 year's sponsorship for Manna 4 Lempira kids is $180 so I'd be tempted to ask for that. I love writing the kids and what they are doing for them.

Yes it has to be physical gift or I will end up with a Target card, which is okay, but I hate using them when I save 5% with my Target card. It is just a silly thing with me.

I tried telling DH he didn’t need to get me anything as I had splurged a few months ago on some Tom Ford sunglasses (love them btw and acetate is so much nicer than plastic even though it looks the same), and we need a new computer, but he said he still wanted to get me something.

-new kindle paperwhite

-kitchen appliance (instant pot, Keurig, air fryer, electric kettle, etc.)
