Default Question on wiring 2 wall lights

I want to hook up 2 wall fixtures but before I do, just want to double
check my options. I want to run my wiring from one of the nearby
outlets straight to the lights since the lights have a 'built in'
bottom turn switch. I wasn't planning on installing a wall switch,
unless it's a better idea (or the right idea) to have one.
Thanks in advance for any and all answers.

Default Question on wiring 2 wall lights

I'm no electrician, but it's perfectly acceptable to not have a wall
switch for a light fixture.

many closets work off the same principle...hell, so do floor lamps.
the switch is at the light bulb. I say go for it... unless of course,
you may want to put a dimmer on it later.
