With Thanksgiving coming this week, I like to take a minute to reflect on all the things in my life I’m grateful for. Doing so makes me realize how lucky I really am. I’m healthy and happy, what more do you really need in life? That being said, a lot of people aren’t so lucky. So for this Lust List Gift Guide, I’m focusing on products that give back. All of the products listed give some percentage of their proceeds to a charity they support. We can help others while still giving great gifts! How cool is that?!

For as long as I’ve been in San Diego, I’ve never had the opportunity to visit The University Club, a members-only club at the Symphony Towers in downtown. So when the invitation came along for me to attend their ‘Tis The Season Shopping event, I jumped at it! We got to sip champagne and browse vendor booths from Fashion Valley Mall. The view of downtown from the club is beautiful. I was there after dark but I would imagine it’s a stunning place for sunset cocktails. It was a perfect way to get my holiday spirit sparked and get some gift ideas. I was particularly tempted by some gorgeous Chanel sunglasses but refrained. Can’t let the champagne do my spending! 😉
These boots can convert from booties to knee highs! Genius!

How do you like my new ‘do?
The view from The University Club is spectacular!
The top pair are the ones I’m lusting over. There are little pearls on the top!!
I’m still swooning over these Chanel sunglasses…
