Staff Picks: Marie France Asia's Christmas wishlist
mis à jour le 4 May 2019 à 05:07Here's what we really want from Santa - from candles to crosstables and of course shoes.
While we've been busy compiling gift guides across a myriad of categories, we couldn't help but put a couple of items on our wishlist, hoping that a secret Santa somewhere is taking notes diligently.
Rana - Editor-in-Chief
Skyline outline Card Holder, LOVE SG, approx. SGD29.90
"While my full (and you may say extravagant) wishlist for this year is fully documented here - and is still valid by the way - it seems like I missed out on one little thing. Having just got my new name cards, I reckon I would need new card holder like this locally designed LOVE SG one depicting Singapore's famous skyline. Yup, I love this city and I love its designers so Santa can never go wrong if he drops me this beautiful leather piece which will always remind me how lucky I am to be living in a place like Singapore - and come in handy of course!"
Tarandip - Fashion & Beauty Writer
Kitchenaid Artisan Stand Mixer, approx. SGD563
"Of course a pair of shoes would make me happy this festive season - especially one from Sophia Webster or Charlotte Olympia or a pair of Louboutins wouldn't hurt either. However, what I really want is something for the kitchen, more specifically a Kitchenaid Artisan Stand Mixer. Since I particularly enjoy whipping up sweet treats for myself and my little nephew and niece, this mixer would be God-sent. It makes baking so much easier and my counter top that much more prettier."
Shannon - Editorial Assistant & Writer
J.Crew + Sophia Webster Nicole patent-leather and calf hair sandals, approx. SGD669
"Anyone who knows me knows that I spend all of my time and money on beauty bits - whether it is face masks, new foundation or nail polishes. Which is why, for Christmas I usually like to ask for a snazzy pair of heels or a statement bag. This gorgeous pair of heeled sandals are on top of my wishlist this year - versatile, comfy and chic - these shoes would look great with a pair of jeans or a little black dress."
Annabelle - Fashion & Beauty Writer
Diptyque Baies Scented Candle, approx. SGD78
"I have always and will always be a sucker for elegant monochromatic and minimalistic packaging. This time, Diptyque’s scented candles caught my eye and made it straight to the top of my wishlist. The Baies scent has been highly raved about and I absolutely can’t wait for it to waft around the house and bask in its scent as Christmas tunes play on loop!"
Lindsay - Fashion Tech & Lifestyle Writer/ Translator
Dior Golden Shock Top Coat, approx. SGD40
"The Diorific Golden Shock Top Coat from this year’s Christmas collection. Those golden leaves will add a delicate touch of sparkle to my nails. It is clearly on my whislist."
Laura - Business Development Manager
Tory Burch backpack, approx. SGD480
"Among my new year's resolutions I've promised myself to travel more and unfortunately for my finances, I've my eyes set on this little bijou which seems to be the perfect travel accessory that I'd be happy to go city hopping around with! Compact and oh-so- soft with many safe compartments on the inside - I want it!"
Aline - Audience Product Manager
Crosley Tun Table, approx. SGD131
"On the top of my wishlist stands the Crosley turn table. I have already found it a place in my flat...ao, I’m really ready to adopt it soon (Dear Santa do you read me?)"
