Women’s Birthday Wish List for Covet Fridays

Since today is my birthday, I thought it fitting to create a style guide of all the items I desperately want to own. Thus, I’m taking a cue from last year and creating a birthday wish list.

I took New Year’s Day as an opportunity to clear out my entire wardrobe. I have three huge bags of clothes for my friends to go through, and it makes me feel like a huge weight has been taken off my shoulders. I found items I had forgotten about, and pieces I once thought were hideous spoke to me in a new way. I’m feeling really good about where my wardrobe is right now, but there are still a few pieces I think would round out my collection and add something special. I’ve outlined those here in my birthday wish list guide.

Hopefully I’ll be opening some of these over the weekend, but if not you better believe I’ll be doing some shopping and self gifting soon 🙂

What is the best birthday present you’ve ever received?
