a college girl's holiday wish list
the holidays are right around the corner which means i have to start making my christmas list! yes, i know, i’m 21, i shouldn’t still be making lists. but my parents are always asking for ideas on what to get me so i just email them links of all the things i really want. making a christmas list in college is so hard. i want so much but don’t really need anything except stupid little things like toothpaste and toilet paper.
whether you’re shopping for your daughter in college, your roommates or just a friend - i have some ideas for you.
a hydroflask. i am obsessed with mine. i use it every single day. there are a bunch of colors, types and sizes but i have a plain white one.
love your melon hats are super popular these days. plus it helps that they are cute and go to a good cause!
i always try to get my friends something that they wouldn’t really buy themselves. for instance - things to destress and relax. i find that these are the nicest gifts to give! specifically, things like: face masks, cozy socks, soft blankets or bath/shower bombs.
candles are something you cannot have enough of! they are the perfect gift for any girl in college.
i’m always in need of to-go coffee cups. i’m not talking about paper cups but a nice mug that will keep my coffee hot!
you can’t go wrong with gifting a blanket scarf. girls love to stay warm and cozy during the winter and big scarves are perfect for that!
some new makeup palettes always make for great gifts! now that kylie cosmetics are sold in ulta, i bet her products will be a huge hit this christmas season.
wanna know what i specifically asked for? keep reading! first, let me just say that i’m definitely not expecting all of these things. i like to give a lot of ideas so that my parents don’t feel bad if they don’t get me everything on my list.
i love aerie. like obsessed. so i asked for some new joggers, leggings, a sweatshirt, a poncho and a bralette
y’all know i love yoga. last christmas i got a lululemon mat so this year i asked for a mat towel. i know i could get any mat towel from like marshalls or something but i just can’t find any that are right for me. the lululemon mat towels are so soft and don’t slip.
i need a new phone case. i love the silicon apple phone cases, they are light and cute and soft so i asked for another one of those. the one i have now has lasted me about two years but i’ve dropped it a bunch of times so it’s starting to chip.
i really want a new purse. i don’t really care where it’s from. the only thing is, i need it to fit my laptop in it and i need it to be cute and simple. any suggestions? let me know!
i’m obsessed with vans, they are basically all i wear. i already have white slip ons but it’s time for more. mine are so dirty and actually have holes in them because i wear them so much! i’m definitely hoping for another pair this christmas.
since i’ll be living at home again pretty soon, i gave my parents the idea of gifting me some stuff to redecorate my room. my sister and i share a room and it’s looked the same way pretty much since we moved in. i really want to paint it but i need new bedding, curtains, a full-length mirror, a makeup desk and some wall decor. obviously i need a lot of (expensive) things for my room but if my parents wanted to get me even one thing - it would be such a big help!
i just started skiing a couple of winters ago and last christmas i got (almost everything) i need. i’m still in the market for a good pair of gloves and a nice helmet. so i added that to my list just in time for the season!
good luck with all your shopping this holiday season! i hope this list helped a little :)
