10 Things You Need in Life Right This MInute

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at DePauw chapter.
If you were looking for some justification to go on a spending spree, look no further. We both know you’ve still got some of that Christmas money tucked away; who needs tuition. Here is a collection of ten things you need in your life, like, yesterday:
 

1) A Pair of Heels that Make You Look like a Rockstar

Some rules: they can’t be simple, comfortable or lower than three inches. The point of these shoes isn’t practicality, ladies, it’s that particular spark of confidence that can only come with a pair of kick-butt stilettos. These shoes weren’t made for walkin’.
 

2) A Beauty Blender

The only make-up tool you’ll ever need. You can thank me later.

3) A Copy of Cheryl Strayed’s Brave Enough

This collection of quotes about courage, love and healing from the woman who inspired Reese Witherspoon’s latest flick Wild will bring you to tears.

4) These Slippers

We live in the future and it’s a beautiful, beautiful thing.

5) Trader Joe’s Cinnamon Vanilla Tea

This stuff is the bomb.com. It’s sweet with a hint of spice, and smells like Christmas morning before you realized–spoiler alert–Santa Claus isn’t real.

6) This Mug

To drink the tea in, of course.

7) A Netflix Instant Subscription

It’s about time you crawled out from that rock you’ve been living under since 2010, and embrace all the joy and delight Netflix brings. Besides, what good is #4 without it?

8) A Birchbox Subscription 

How do you think I discovered #2?

9) A Nice Watch

None of those $20 ones you impulsively buy on your Greencastle Wal-Mart runs. I’m talking a good quality watch made of durable materials, like gold or leather. Save your money and buy something timeless (pun intended) that will last you years. It’s time to buy a grown-up watch and start showing up on time for things (deep breaths, you can do this).

10) A Good Group of Girlfriends 

Now hopefully this isn’t something you go out and purchase, but every woman needs a great group of galpals to talk to, laugh with, and go on massive shopping binges with, right? 

 
Happy spending!
