All I want for Christmas Is…
From R&R to educational courses, dream vacays and embracing family SO takes you Christmas carolling and gift wrapping with eight of our faves from across industries — sports and film, beauty and fashion — fact is when all is said we basically all want the same thing!

My gift to myself this year is rest and relaxation.
“My best Christmas experience was as a child celebrating with my grandparents in Treasure Beach. We kept things simple, there was no tree and barely any decorations, but time spent with elders is always precious.”
Come Christmas day I’ll be singing my favourite carol which is the Jackson 5’s Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.
Finally, I wish everyone a restful and joyous Christmas season. I hope we are all surrounded by love, family, and great food.”
Rock-blooded fashion designer Samantha Black
My belated Christmas gift will be a trip to Jamaica.
Most memorable Christmas was when I was 11/12 and received my first sewing machine!

My Christmas gift to me this year is peace and quiet on an empty beach in a bikini wrapped in relaxing good vibes with my husband, and a Bamboo B Tote from my fellow Jamaican Brandon Blackwood.

I’m gifting myself three business courses this year. I want to sharpen my entrepreneurial skills and learn some more about my target market. Updating the workspace for my online boutique Soignée is also on my Christmas wishlist.
And because I’m a stylista at heart, I bought a pair of designer shoes that was just too fab to pass up!
Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas Is You will be on repeat for the season.

This Christmas by Chris Brown is my Christmas song so that’s what I’ll be playing
