Naughty and Nice: A letter to Santa
Making her way onto Santa’s nice list this year, Fleur Stevens is asking for all of her guilty luxury pleasures
When we were young, we were constantly threatened with being on Santa’s naughty list when we misbehaved. We were told that we’d get coal instead of presents, and that Christmas Day would be ruined because of our wrongdoings. What if I told you that being a little bit naughty only brought all things merry and bright? Here is my ultimate Christmas lift that is bound to bring a bit of naughty to your nice:
Dear Santa,
For Christmas I would like:
1) Mulberry’s Cara Delevingne bag covered in snow
2) Everything from Charlotte Tilbury’s makeup collection
3) A spa day at the fanciest hotel around
4) The Sweet Temptations Ambre Vanillé Luxe Body Collection from Laura Mercier
5) Black Opium fragrance by Yves Saint Laurent
6) ‘Let there be Bright!’ skincare set by Benefit
7) Nourishing Shea Butter collection by L’Occitane
8) The GHD Metallic Collection
9) Fired Up Face Set by bareMinerals
Santa, these treats may be naughty and indulgent in price, but every good girl and boy deserves a little treat in their stocking this year. So, go ahead—get out your purse and treat yourself this year. After all, naughty and nice are always at their best together.
