Helloooooo Australia! Oprah has penned her letter to Santa, AKA her ‘Favourite Things’ list of 2015; the latest and greatest stocking stuffers and luxury gifts she fancies will make you one coveted Kris Kringle.
Since we can’t all give out Pontiacs or overseas trips this Christmas, we’ve perused the list for the hottest summer buys, on a budget more akin to someone without their own television network.
With the stylish talk show host and seasoned traveler on her way to Oz early next month, (tour dates and details below), here are 10 things we think she’ll have gifted herself for the trip Down Under.
If you travel in style, then your clothes should too. Hartmann rolling suitcases are the zenith of lightweight travel. Plus they’ll match your iPhone. “I know these suitcases are pricey, but they’re worth it,” says Oprah. “They’re the ultimate travel companions.”
Remove impurities and get primed for smooth, glowing skin with the special edition Keith Haring Clarisonic Mia 2 Face Brush.”Works as a cleansing tool, looks like a party”High pigment, high fashion. Butter London’s Oprah Exclusive Ultimate Lacquer Wardrobe will have your fingertips and tippy toes looking tops. “The pigments are superrich, and the lacquer is free of formaldehyde, toluene, and DBP.”“Supple and sumptuous, this faux-leather bag is roomy enough to fit everything you need for a two-day getaway,” says Oprah. We think the NYC Weekender is the perfect stash-all for the beach too!
Gloria Williams, a.k.a. the Foot Nanny, gives the world’s most indulgent pedicure. If you can’t make it for a session in California, this kit—a relaxing salt, a luxurious cream and treatment socks you leave on for an hour after soaking and lotioning—is mighty nice also.”
Having a summer not to forget? You don’t have to with the beautiful Layflat Photo Album from Artifact Uprising.
“My eyebrow guru, Anastasia, launched a collection of lip glosses this year, and I love how bold and rich they are. Did I mention they stay on forever? I personally curated this set’s colors, all perfect basics that go from day to night.”
Club-quality sound from a gadget the size of a paperclip? Yes please. Lightweight, colorful and sweat-resistent Oprah always travels with her Beats by Dr. Dre Wireless Headphones.“A gorgeous hybrid of wallet and clutch, this premium leather bag comes in more than 25 vibrant colors and fits credit cards, cash, even a phone. So you can drop your essentials into a tote, or use it alone when you’re traveling light.”
It may look like a regular water bottle, but it totes a carafe’s worth of rosé and keeps it chilled for up to 25 hours! We suppose you could use the Corkcicle Canteen for water too…
Oprah will be headlining a multi-city arena tour “An Evening With Oprah”, presented by Swisse, taking the stage to bring her personal story and insights to life in a one-of-a-kind intimate evening.
“I can’t wait to see everyone again in Australia,” said Winfrey. “It is hard to believe it has been five years since I was there, and I look forward to being reconnected, rejuvenated and reinspired about what is possible for our lives.”
