Secret Santa gift poll

HeatherLynn · Gucci

my favorite stores are: I shop pretty much anywhere. I like creative, cutesy things

what i don't want: candles, a Christmas ornament (my tree is red and white and I don't think pink fits into that), or a picture frame!

what do i need: this one is hard- just whatever

I want something cute and creative too. =) I know anything I get from anyone will be great though.

A little about myself: I am 22 and an engineer (but do not have the typical engineer personality at all). I want something I can use. I am a medium in most things (small in some).

nicoley · Coach

I know anything I get will be great, but heres a little input:

I love unique original things, that a million people won't have. Would be fab to recieve something that I could use, and not something that would just sit around and collect dust. I think all the girls on here are very unique, and Im hoping the gifts reflect that :)

Fav stores: Urban, nordstrom, bloomies, free people, anthro

A little info about me, since im not super active on here because super busy w/school:

But Im 23, in Grad school for pharmacy. size is usually small in shirts and pjs (4/6)

hope that helps my secret santa :)

NCshopper · Hermes

my favorite stores are: Banana Republic, Sephora, Anthro, Nordies

what i don't want: Pierced earrings. I can't wear them.

what do i need: hmmm...accessories, pjs, bath and body stuff, and/or home decor stuff will always work.

I also have an Amazon.com wish list created, just in case anyone's interested, but don't feel like you have to stick to the list: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/ref=cs_top_nav_wl/102-0127730-5845771

About myself: I'm a big nerd. I like books and music and cooking and doing crafty stuff around the house. My decor is pretty eclectic--I like a lot of different stuff as long as it's pretty. As far as clothes go, I'm pretty consistently a size 6 on bottom and a size 4 on top and I love all things red.

bex · Chanel

my favorite stores are: Nordstroms, Sephora, Anthro

what i don't want: please no candles....

what do i need: anything fun to pamper myself--> bath bubbles, bombs or soaps are fun for me. cool jewelry- i really don't have enough. i love hats and scarves but am v.picky about gloves... i know the theme is pink but am currently obsessing over the color ivory or winter white...

honey · Gucci

favorite stores: barney's co-op & forever 21 (quite a range there)

what i don't want: most bath/body stuff. my skin is really sensitve so a lot of heavily scented stuff just irritates it. other than that i can't think of anything that i don't want.

what i need: if my secret santa could get me into columbia that would rock. but seriously i don't really need anything. i have the hardest time coming up with christmas lists.

stuff i like: i like really interesting, cool stuff. sorry that's really vague. i like stuff that's off the beaten path, or is handmade like the stuff you'd find at an outdoor market or that sort of thing. also sweets are always appreciated, especially baked goods (but not chocolate) . and books. a book or two would rock, just no chick lit. sorry for the length, i'm kind of picky so i though i'd give my secret santa some ideas to work with.

eta: that being said, i love surprises so anything that i get would be awesome.

yippee!! i can't wait for my person to post!

stuff i like: food scents, fun patterned or textured tights and trouser socks, silver jewelry, purple stuff, hair assessories, knitting, kitchy kitchen stuff from the 50s and 60s, cool nature themed things. i'm usually a size 6.

stuff i don't want: i'm allergic to a lot of lip balms/glosses, picture frames, note cards, home assessories that can't stand up to a house with 3 crazy cats and an energetic dog.

Oh, I'm 31 (and in denial about it) and I work for a non profit environmental protection group.
