2011 has been an extremely exciting year! I’ve come across so many wonderful products that it was a difficult process to just pick 10 items for my Holiday Guide List. Remember these mentions are actual products I’ve seen, owned and in some cases have reviewed. I hope you love what I’ve put together this year! Just leave me a message in the comment section telling me what you think–I’d love to know!

1. Dylan’s Candy Bar Candy Land Gift Basket

I have never been a fan of the board game Candy Land but I am a fan of CANDY. Those who know me know I have a mega sweet tooth–or maybe they don’t, but I was all over this baby. I mean, just look, every candy you can name is in this reusable metal tin including Cherry Rock Candy, Big Hunk, Red Vines and more. It does include items that contain traces of tree nuts and peanuts (for those who may have allergies). Not Kosher. This is one fun treat! $150.00.

Buy several for your favorite shoe lovers and don’t forget to snag one for yourself.  $19.99.

5. So Excessive Hoops

When it comes to style and what’s hot So Excessive sets trends and is ridiculous when it comes to accessories and looking flawless out on the town. Featured on popular websites like SheSoMajor.com you’ve got to check out this new creation “Liquid Metal”. I swooned when I saw it. The product description says, “This heavy-weight, chain-link champion goes by the name of Liquid Metal. Its dramatic gold layers take the word “Excessive” to a whole new level. It goes pound for pound in the name of glam. Are you ready to liquify?” Need I say more? Pre-order one now. Be fierce in 2012! $48.00.

6. BHold Bags

I love shoes and more than loving them I adore protecting them from anything that may diminish they’re value. Hey, I’ve got quite a collection. So when I discovered these adorable shoe bags that are not like anything else on the market I knew they were right up my alley. I did a product review and that was all it took for me to climb on board this shoe bag train. This is the absolute perfect gift for the woman you know loves shoes. Also available for little girls and for men’s shoes as well. $25.00.

7. Shhh Honey the Game is On Tee

I know you’ve heard it before I am a sucker for a good tee, a well made tee, a soft and plush tee that hugs the body and still allows you to look feminine. When the company sent me a tee to review for the website, I loved it and my husband loved me in it so much that he took a photo and made it the wallpaper on his cell phone! You’ve got to get one for the tee lover in your life. Available for baseball, football and basketball fans or just to send the “Shhh” message, you can’t go wrong with this very cute gift! $17.00.

8. My Name Necklace

I think I went My Name crazy this year. First I got one to review that said “Princess” in a pretty pink acrylic and then I bought one in silver that said “Mrs Holland” and then I bought another in silver that simply said “Wife”. You can do so many cool things with this product. You can propose, you can motivate yourself with something that says “Success” or “Mogul”. Truly the sky is the limit. The silver with a basic short chain started at $33.95.

10. Fashion Table Book

Every fashionista worth her salt loves the table books especially the ones that give the history of her favorite designer. I’ve been treating myself to one or two of them a year. So far my favorite one is the Chanel book. I still have several others on my wishlist. And since all fashionable books hang out with other fashionable books when you click the link you’ll see “Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought This Item” and you can browse the other books available including Tom Ford, Yves Saint Laurent, Valentino, Gucci, Dior and Alexander McQueen (just to name a few). The prices fluctuate as do the ship time. You have to keep your eyes open for the prices to be just right for these gems and any true fashionista will not haggle with you, she’ll wait patiently for its delivery.

1. Heelskinz

We reviewed these Heelskinz earlier this year and they were pheomenal. If you’ve ever had shoes that were precious to you, you’ll adore these and want to give them as a gift to your fellow shoenistas! They protect the scuffing at the back of the shoe that can happen when you drive. If you’ve ever worn suede shoes or other delicate fabrics you know that they can scuff all the time ie. while sitting on a chair or even just having both shoes rub against the other and not just when driving. I love mine. Their easy to remove and come in fashionable fabrics. Jump on the Heelskinz bandwagon. $19.95.

2. Victoria’s Secret Sequin Sweater Wrap

This cuddly sweater wrap is at the top of my wishlist. My birthday is 3 days before Christmas but I’m hoping that this ends up in my wardrobe. I imagine myself wearing it with my tattered jeans and a cute pair of stiletto boots or a Princess seam dress and Louboutins. It’s also available in a black with sequins too. I’m not sure but I may opt for both. Made of polyester, nylon, wool and mohair. If you buy one for a gift make sure you get yourself one, I’m just saying–a girl’s gotta glitter. $158.00.

3. TheSoleMates

There was absolutely “no way” we could leave The Sole Mates off the favorite things list. These are a girls wet dream. Honestly. This is the absolute perfect way to protect those high end designer heels that we covet so much (and you know we have tons). This is GENIUS! No more scrapes, scratches or nicks on your heels when you sink down into the grass or the dirt. Free shipping when you order 2 or more. I say buy a dozen (at least) to start! $9.95 a pair.

4. L’Occitane Almond Milk Concentrate

I’m not sure about you, but in the winter my skin gets abnormally dry. I did some research on the organic L’Occitane products and have been dying to try the Almond Milk Concentrate. It just sounded so luxurious and pampering that it had to live up to its promises–and it did! It uses almond proteins to firm the epidermis and a concentrated milk that nourishes the skin. Helps to firm and tone too. The almond scent is divine. Suitable for the whole body. $39.00 for a 7. ounce jar.

5. Amazon Kindle

I’ve wanted a Kindle for over a year now. My husband bought it for me and I’ve been HOOKED ever since. While there are some books by my favorite authors that I’ll still buy in hardcover, I find that the Kindle is awesome for stocking some suggested reading on a single device for the fraction of the price. My non-fiction book The Plural Thing: Spiritually Preparing for Your Soul Mate is available on Kindle for $3.99 (click here to get it). This item sells out EXTREMELY QUICK, especially around the holidays. The Kindle is my new best friend. $139.00.

6. J. Crew Mythica Bangle

I have slowly but sure begun falling in love with a variety of bangles. This one in particular caught my eye. It’s also available with yellow stones and there is one with all white stones that mimics diamonds. This piece will definitely please several fashionable people on your holiday shopping list. Trust me, they’ll sell out quickly. Definitely a conversation piece! $50.00

7. NYX Ultimate Beauty Box

I saw this on The View and fell in love. This is everything that any girl would ever need when it comes to make-up. This arsenal of cosmetic weaponry contains 47 eye shadows that range from matte to glitter, a black mascara, a black liquid eye liner, a black eye liner pencil, 5 face colors, 2 eye shadow bases, 2 face powders, 6 blushers, 4 concealers, 2 lip pencils, 6 lip glosses and 6 lip lacquer pots.

8. My Wife Rocks Tee

I bought this tee for my husband earlier this year (maybe for Valentine’s Day I don’t fully remember) and just to be fair I bought myself the one that says, “My Husband Rocks” and I get so many smiles in public whether we are wearing them out together or if I’m only wearing mine. I think it is a powerful testament to love, faithfulness and marriage and that every couple should own a pair. Now the company has other designs and I just got an email that they have hoodies too. Guess what will be under the tree this Christmas! $17.00.

9. Steve Madden Peeptoe Platform Sandals

Now I know you don’t follow Princess Dominique and think that there won’t be a shoe on my must have list. These platform sandals are available in black and pink. The pink ones are just calling me. The color is so delicate like cotton candy almost. I must have them. I have no clue what I’ll wear it with, but those who know me already know that I most often build my outfit around my shoes.  I am already dusting off a place in my shoe closet for these babies. Happy Birthday to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!  $100.00

10. Toletta Toilet Seat Covers

We thought this was the coolest product around. If you’ve ever had to use the rest room while out you’ll know how difficult it is to squat. Let’s be for real. With these soft toilet seat covers, now you can be ready no matter where you are–especially if you need to sit for awhile. It comes in a pretty package that’s small enough to fit in a clutch. Easy to open, easy to use and absorbent enough for those with little men who tinkle on the toilet seat. Their brand also helps Breast Cancer Awareness Research (pink package) and Child Poverty Awareness (blue package). Oh and they’re safe to flush. Get a 6 pack for $14.95.

3. MAGIC BULLET

I saw this on the The View earlier this year and had to have one. I read some reviews where people were not too satisfied with the fact that it doesn’t chop nuts and meat without having to be stopped and started again, but if you have someone on your list who would enjoy making their own smoothies, it is supposed to blend fruits really nicely. Get it before they sell out. $54.99.

6. BE BEAUTIFUL

I’ve heard a lot about this book. They are calling it the beauty bible. Originally for teens and all of the questions they could ever ask about hair, skin and make-up, it is useful for adults as well. I’m not absolutely sure about the price, but it’s safe to say you should be able to snag it new or slightly used for under $20.00.
