Gift list / Wish list,
Alumita Smith.

I’m working through Christmas this year, which isn’t so bad because last year I was in Fiji for Christmas and New Years so it’s nice to be home during the holidays. 

Usually it’s just about family time and enjoying the sun, barbecues and stuff. I have a big family and everyone comes to our house and eats heaps of food, and open presents and swim in our pool, and we’re next to a park.

It’s more important for the kids in our family, the presents, but for the adults, we do a Secret Santa so everyone gets something.

• I need some new sports shoes. Maybe from Nike. Gym clothes would be nice too. 

• I also love make-up. Maybe from Sephora, or MAC. Or if anyone wants to get me some Chanel, I’m open to it. 

• I’d also love to go overseas, or even just out of Auckland, for a long weekend. I want to go to Queenstown – I haven’t been and it looks so pretty. That’s on my list of things to do next year.

• I love nice-smelling things like candles. We just got these candles by The Becca Project. These two lovely ladies made them; they’re best friends who got together to do this, and they’re all natural ingredients. 

• And these Real World creams and bath salts. 

• And I quite like that cute little heart bag, but maybe for myself! But I feel like my mum would like one. I’m big on gift cards. Because I like to be able to choose, especially if it’s for clothes, because a lot of people don’t know my style that well.

I had a friend who bought me a dress that I absolutely hated and wasn’t my style at all, but I wore it to make them happy. It wasn’t me at all. So gift cards are good. Then everyone is happy.
