Veruca Salt: I want it now - a list by FancyPants

Options for This Page

About this list:

I'm often chastised for being the Veruca of my family... I have a tendency to over-spend, over-want, and over-whine about it... Here is a collection of things that I spy online for ThisNext that I also Truly-Madly-Deeply want to take home for myself. Enjoy. PS- Veruca Salt is the whiny-assed girl in "Willy Wonka"-- you know, "I wan't it nowwww"

Qualifications:

Veruca Salt's slightly more tolerable BFF

For people who like:

  • being spoiled
  • Buying yourself things
  • having too much credit card debt

I often call my taste in design "June Cleaver's Summer Abroad in Paris"

Louis Vuitton - Speedy 30

16 people recommended this item

Description

With your dual-natured qualities you just can't seem to keep it straight. One day you are classic and one day you are wild. Gemini you are bound to have dozens of handbags in your closet but its always good to have one that will go with everything, like this one from Louis Vuitton.

Description

I've seen a few of these online, but this one is by far the prettiest.

I figure if you are going spend more on a handbag than you do on rent (for 6 months) the last thing you want is for it to mingle on the floor with the less affluent bags...

Seriously... I saw this 20/20 thing about the bacteria on the bottom of women's handbags-- disgusting.

Swingline 747 Chrome Stapler

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

If you have ever tried to staple an inch work of TPS reports with some girly Bostitch... you know.

Swinglines are the absolute best staplers you can get... and, I kid you not, are heavy enough to use as a hammer (TRUE STORY) or inflict blunt force trauma...

Get one for your office, and one to share.

So I don't actually have any children of my own-- but I am seriously considering purchasing this little binky just in case...

So pretentious, yet so sweet. Just like my child-to-be.

Burberry Button-Front Blouse

Description

Sad that at 25, with a nice full-time job, a life and a few dogs I still obsessively watch The Hills.
Even worse-- is when I peruse the job postings in LA on Monster so I can be "besties" with Lo and Lauren. Anyway, Heidi wore this shirt the day she decided to stab Elodie in the back (and I would have too). It's definitely on my Christmas List.

Too awesome. Add a warm liquid and all of my political dreams come true-- in the form of red states turning blue. Even Montana. Even Texas.

Tea and Democracy. Yum.
