Wishful Wednesday: things I can't live without

On this wishful Wednesday, I wish for more health and wishes for my loved ones and blogger friends.  I hope you enjoy some of these materialistic things I can't live without. With each following picture comes more and more color and my favorite picture is of the flower blossoms. What's your favorite pic?




These Valentino handbags are amazing because of the original shapes and color. Is there a woman out there who doesn't NEED another handbag? 



Neck pillows changed my sleep for the better. Be careful! Once you've gotten use to using these pillows, its hard to travel without them.



Our joke has always been, " I've never gone camping because I flat iron!" Maybe its not a joke after all.



This Audrey Hepburn laptop bag makes me smile.




Aspiring chefs need their utensils and wonderful recipes to get them through. Now if I could only get someone else to clean up the kitchen.





My Brita helps me drink my eight, gulp, glasses of water a day. How much water do you drink in a day?





I am getting so much joy out of writing. Tell me on this wishful Wednesday, what are some of the things that you can't live without?

I love the Valentino bags, specifically the gold ones. I need a sponsor, I think.

Also, I can totally understand the chi obsession. You're talking to someone who actually used to bring hers to summer camp. A few good chis were sacrificed to this cause. I actually just had to order my 5th (5th! eeks) because I've somehow burned out another one. I think they need to be more travel-friendly.

Children of the Nineties: We should have gone to camp together and could have shared our Chi's. Let's make a lighter version for travel.

Jules: I totally agree sweetie...wish away.

Laura said...

Dollface: I love the laptop bag. How fun would that be to take to a coffee shop?

Joanie said...

I have my eye on a Vera Bradley bag. As soon as I have enough stashed away I'm getting it!

I can't live without my coffee in the morning, my orthotics in my work shoes (Lord, now I just sound OLD!) and my cell phone.

Char said...

love that laptop bag for sure but I'm in love lately with my tano handbag.

other things: coffee, my camera, and fruit.

Laura said...

Joanie M: Let us know when you get your well deserved bag. Thanx for your comment.

Char: All great wishes! Right now I am loving strawberries, watermelon and pineapple.

Braja: Hi sweetie and these comments sound like fighting words!

Mrs Anne said...

I just was talking to a doctor friend the other day. She said to cut back some of the water and add pedialyte. It does the same thing as water with out losing vitamins that water can flush out.

I love my chi also but, I try not to use it as much any more. Only when going out. During the rest of the time I wear the waves.

Thanks for stopping by 29 Black Street ... I must try that neck pillow. Things I can't live without - my 24" imac (sigh), coffee in bed each morning, beach glass, books, the breeze blowing through my house, fleece ... oh don't get me started. m&m's (milk chocolate) ...

Madeleine said...

I am looking for the best flat iron, can someone suggest one? And what about those products by Chi which moisturize hair before applying the iron? do they work or goop up the hair?

Oh I like those bags...yummy.

thank-you for all this eye candy

Claudya Martinez said...

OMG! I have one of those pillows and I love it. Honestly, I don't ever want to do without it.

Joy said...

Oh, my neck pillow has spoiled me beyond repair. I can't sleep without it!

Writing for me, too, is life. It's how I earn my living. It's how I find my voice. It's how I make sense of life. It gives me joy!

Great post!

You had me at the handbags, but then lost me with the water. 8 glasses a day? That is just a level of drinking that I will never be able to accomplish.

However, if you and I are drinking a bottle of red wine, then it would be another matter entirely! :)

My chi got stolen and I had to replace it with some lame ass imitation straightener due to lack of fundage. I haven't been the same since.

Absolutely Ladylike said...
