Between shopping for our friends and families and putting together sparkly gift guides for all of you, don't think we've forgotten to assemble our own hit-list of what we've been eyeing most this season. From an eclectic tapestry necklace to paint 'n' peel nailpolish, here are the all the beautiful bits and baubles that Refinery29's editors are wanting most right now.

Kenzo Necklace, about $260, available at Kenzo. "I'm feeling a romantic folkloric vibe for winter that was beautifully captured by Antoinio Marras at Kenzo. Since this fairytale sweater coat could probably cover the down payment on a country house, I'm more inclined to wish for this divine floral beaded necklace instead."

Hermès Paris Diabolo Card Case in Orange, $335, available at Hermès "Carrying my business cards around in such a beautiful thing will definitely have major positive vibing effects."

Gold Bars Stud Earrings, $205, available at Council. "I love the simplicity of these long gold bar studs."
Monocle
subscription, about $75 for six months, available at Monocole. "I like that this mag is equal parts business and practical info as well as design and inspiration. It looks to the future in a good way, which is what starting the new year is all about."
Filson Field Bag, $164, available at Smith & Butler. "As much as I love a luxe heavy-duty leather bag, I really adore a simple satchel that's still beautifully constructed of the most basic materials. This Filson bag is a great-looking alternative for braving all the nasty weather that awaits us in the coming months."

Dieppa Restrepo "Cali" Lace-up patent oxford, $225, available at Maryam Nassir Zadeh. "I have a soft spot for basic luxuries, and these simple patent oxfords really fit the bill. I would wear these until the soles fall off, no question."
Dior Tortoise Sunglasses, $495, available at Silver Lining. "Given my penchant for all things thrifty, occasionally any girl, including me, can appreciate a real timeless splurge. And these classic Dior frames are the perfect combo of luxurious practicality."

Karen Walker She's Cracked jacket, $420, and Royal Albert Trousers, $365, both available at Feature, 11958 San Vicente Blvd., Los Angeles. "It's a toss up between which part of this outfit I love more: the jacket or the pants (not to mention the Jonathan Kelsey red pumps!). In a perfect world, I would get them both and wear them forever."
Piera Gelardi, Style Director

Elke Kramer Pet Keepwatch Bracelet, $150, available at Opening Ceremony. "I love the unusual material of this bracelet—it reminds me of a bowling ball. If I owned it I would imagine that someone had crafted it for me from the ball I used to bowl a perfect score in the Women's League Championships."
See by Chloé Perfect Blouse, $240, available at La Garçonne. "I'm in the market for a perfect white button-down and this one would fit the bill nicely."
Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat, $40, available at Barneys New York. "Great for making you look fresh when you are anything but. It's the ultimate beauty product that I've yet to splurge on for myself."
Above, from left:
Swedish Hasbeens Lace-Up Boots, $358-$400, available at Kaight, Jumelle, and Swedish Hasbeens. "These are like a sophisticated Swedish cousin of Dr. Marten. My dream boots."
Vena Cava Healer-Nun Dress, $322 (was $460), available at Shopbop. "Love the mysterious name and gemstone galaxy pattern. I'd wear this beauty into the ground—with a cardigan for daytime and a big furry vest for night. In summer and in winter. In sickness and in health."

Silence & Noise Tweed Trousers, $58, available at Urban Outfitters. "I never wear pants but would like to start...these could be my training pants."
Above, from left:
Donna Wilson for SCP Nos Da Throw, $275 each, available at The Future Perfect. "These blankets are made in Wales on a traditional mill but the pattern reminds me of '80s Pacman. I'd throw the blush one over the arm of my couch for wrapping myself in during winter movie nights."
Chanel Nail Polish in Trapeze, $23, available at Nordstrom. "I've been almost exclusively wearing a shade of orange-red polish for the past five years and I'm ready to switch it up. This limited-edition silver beige hue somehow escapes being drab...or maybe drab is the new wow."
American Apparel Diamond Grid Bodysuit, $36, available at American Apparel. "I loved how Vena Cava used this bodysuit as a layering pieces under pieces in their spring 2010 show. It's pretty hot all on it's own too."
Connie Wang, Associate Editor

J.Crew Army Jacket, $148, available at J.Crew. "I've been looking for a feminine army coat so I can channel my inner Lindsay Weir."
Mulberry Mini Ruled Notebook, $59, available at Mulberry "I'm completely bored of Moleskines, and this is a much more awesome option. Bonus: it's waterproof for when you're journaling with a big pint of Blue Moon."

Margiela Leather Bag, $1169, available at The Corner. "Unless you all pitch in a couple bucks to help me out, this bag will probably never be mine. But a girl can dream for her true love, can't she?"
Above, from left:
Surface to Air Buckle Ankle Boot, $425, available at La Garçonne. "Stability, height, and good looks. It's everything I could hope for in a shoe (and dudes also, but that's another story)."
Surrell Fox Earmuffs, $85, available at Bloomingdale's. "Don't laugh! Earmuffs are incredibly warm, and as long as they aren't the same shade as a bubblegum flavor, they won't make you look like a five year old."
Lippmann Happy Birthday Nail Polish, $18, available at Deborah Lippman. "My latest obsession has been googling crazy Japanese nail art. This glittery bottle from Deborah Lippman isn't quite as extreme as those dangly, glued-on, acrylic ones across the sea, but are so insanely sick just the same."
Above, from left:
Paul Smith Headphones, available at Paul Smith. "I've been using my old ear buds for years now that only work half of the time. It's time to graduate to some real, big-kid headphones, and these Paul Smith ones are too amazing to pass up."
Micaela Greg Trapezoid Skirt, $435, available at Micaela Greg. "With the origami folding and the great nubby fabric, this piece by Micaela Greg is like if Rad Hourani and Steven Alan made a skirt baby together. Want."

Prism London "Paris" Glasses in Crystal Grey, about $304, available at Prism London. "I wear glasses pretty much all of the time and I love the shape of these frames. It's such a classic style that I can see myself wearing everyday and not getting sick of."
Sula Paint & Peel Nail Polish, $9, available at Anthropologie. "Such a fun idea. I don't really wear make-up but I'm constantly painting my nails new colors."
Madewell Herringbone Side-Zip Coat, $188, available at Madewell stores. "I try to stay away from long coats because I think they make me look short but Madewell created a classic Herringbone coat in a shorter swing shape. Thank you, Madewell!"
Topshop Ruched Flap Wallet, $30, available at Topshop. "I saw this wallet while waiting in line at Topshop a couple of months ago. This wallet wasn't too bulky so I can still easily fill it with my growing collection of receipts and paper scraps."
Above, clockwise from top left:
Pamela Love Cross Necklace, $, available at Bona Drag. "Although wearing a big cross necklace can sometimes come across as a bit costume-y, the version Pamela Love just came out with is definitely not. It's the perfect size and not too over the top."
Chanel Quilted Classic Flap bag in Black Lambskin, about $2,695, available at Chanel. "Since this is a wish list, (translation: dream on, Lisa!), who can resist adding a outrageous/gorgeous handbag? I'm adding the classic quilted double-C bag in case anyone is feeling generous."
Julie Rofman Party Beaded Cuff, $95, available at Shopbop. "I attempted to make one of these when I was younger but ran out of patience. Twenty-years later, I still want one."
