My 2026 Birthday Wishlist

09/21/26 | birthday, Wishlist

Another lap around the sun, and this weekend I’ll officially turn another year older! I don’t have any big plans this year — just a Sunday with the family and, ideally, starting the day with a solidcore Pilates burn.

As always, I’ve rounded up a mix of things I’ve had my eye on, a few practical upgrades, and some definite “want, not need” items. Here is what made the cut for my 2026 birthday wishlist:

Sparkles and Shoes 2026 Birthday Wishlist

  • Jack Rogers Palm Beach Thong Sandal In metallic Gold – Do I already have these? Yes. Do I need another pair? Also yes. Enough said. Mine are VERY well loved and could definitely use replacing.
  • Matching PJs, for Lily & Mama, -I’m open to a handful of brands and liked a set from Little Sleepies, but our longtime favorite, Kyte Baby, is taking the cake with these. Mark, if you’re reading this: sizes 4T and Small. 🙂
  • Vuori Yosemit Bra – I was only introduced to Vuori in December, but the long-sleeve top and sweatpants I have from the brand are incredible and have held up so well through countless washes. Next on my list is a supportive sports bra, and this one is so cute.
  • Tavi Savvy Tec Grip Socks  – I’m averaging five Pilates classes a week, and that means going through a LOT of grippy socks. Some of mine have been through 50+ classes and are definitely starting to lose their grip, so I’m in the market for a few fresh pairs. I love these in Black, Fresh Green, or Deep Navy, size Medium.
  • Geox Felicity Leather Boots – I already have these in black, and with fall weather right around the corner, I need another pair in the rotation. They are such a classic style and so easy to wear.
  • Oura Ring 5, Gold size 9 – You may remember I got the Oura 4 last year, and while it’s working perfectly fine, birthdays are about things you want, not just things you need. New versions don’t always come with huge changes, but this one does — it’s noticeably slimmer, and the gold is SUCH a good gold. My mom already called dibs on this one, so thanks, Mom & Dad!
  • Gorjana 14K Lab Grown Diamond Halo Cluster Necklace – I’ve had my eye on this necklace since my trip to Phoenix in December, and I would love for it to become my new everyday necklace.
  • Owala 20 fl oz Stainless Steel SmoothSip Slider Coffee Tumbler in Misty Meadow – I already have three Owala water bottles, but apparently I NEED the tumbler now too. The Misty Meadow color is so pretty, and at $30, it feels like the perfect little birthday treat.

One thing that did not make the collage because, frankly, it’s not very cute: I could really use a new power bank. My iPhone has a habit of dying while I’m out and about, and after doing some research, the Anker Nano 10K 30W  has the top spot on my list. 

And lastly, while I absolutely do not need another Owala, Toile be Home print is just too cute not to mention.
