While it may feel like everyone has already finished their Christmas shopping, take heart. I’m massively behind and will probably be using this gift guide to pick a few of my own presents. Whoops? If you’ve got a bit more room in your budget to spend, this guide is filled with some of my favorite Christmas gift ideas. I hope this inspires you with all your holiday shopping. And if you still need more ideas, be sure to head over to my Pinterest gift boards.
1. Kristin Ess 3-In-1 Flat Iron*
We’ve all accepted I’m a Kristin Ess gal, right? So when she added tools to her product line at Target, I was immediately on board. I haven’t gotten my hands on this straightener yet but give me time. Kayley Melissa’s tutorials are giving me hair envy and I might have to make the plunge soon enough.
2. Beautycounter Shimmer & Shine Set*
Yep, this is a repeat item. This set is on my Christmas Wishlist for 2018. But it’s also something I think would make an amazing gift. Who doesn’t want a bit of glow even if it’s freezing out?
3. Eye Mask & Travel Blanket*
I’m a sucker for all things cozy. Seriously, I don’t think it’s possible to own too many blankets. Give them all to me please! If you got a gal who travels a ton or just likes a good nap, this is the perfect gift.
4. Halogen x Atlantic-Pacific Cashmere Lined Leather Gloves*
I’m terrible at wearing gloves. Mostly because I wear rings and I’d rather my fingers be shiny than warm. That’s probably not my wisest choice. But if I was going to invest in a pair of gloves this year, it would be this pair.
5. Oliver Bonas Scarf*
We know I love a good accessory. I’m a basics girl at heart but I love a fun jacket, scarf or pair of shoes. And the colors in this one just make me so happy!
6. Sole Society ‘Cassidy’ Faux Leather Duffle Bag*
I have a bag similar to this one and it’s easily my most loved piece of luggage. It’s perfect for a weekend away or to carry my massive sweaters because I haven’t mastered cold weather packing. Functional, ya know?
7. Oliver Bonas Star Bag*
What is that creature that’s attracted to shiny things? Because it’s probably my spirit animal. I love a good travel bag that’s also super cute. Add some shiny stars and I’m sold!
8. Well Done Crystal Water Bottle*
Let me start with: I’m not a crystals person. I just haven’t found the need for them in my life. But since I have friends who love theirs, I thought I’d include this water bottle in a gift guide. And if you’re shopping for the crystal loving gal in your life, this might be the thing she’s missing.
9. Ted Baker Bow Wristlet*
When I originally put this item on my list, it was because it’s the closest I could get to my recently well loved bag. However, said purse broke (tragic, I know) and now I’m considering this as a potential replacement. I love this fabric and color combo. It’s super festive and gets tons of complements.
10. Nadri ‘Tattoo’ Pavé Hinge Blanket*
Another dainty piece of jewelry but perfect for everyone. Because of the style, you don’t have to worry about the fit. And the small detailing makes it even better.
11. Jo Malone Miniature Candle Collection*
I’d consider this the perfect gift for the candle lover in your life. Or maybe even the girl who buys herself everything and is impossible to shop for. BTW I’m totally that 2nd one. It’s definitely on the indulgent side. However, if you’re feeling particularly generous this Christmas, it would make for a lovely present.
12. Oliver Bonas Jewelry Storage*
My current jewelry storage is abysmal. So when I saw this on the Oliver Bonas website, I feel in love. It’s perfect for someone who likes to display their pieces or with a smaller collection.
13. Brass Wine Rack*
This wine holder mixes two of my favorites: brass & marble. And of course, wine but that’s a given. If you’re looking to give something that’s both stylish and functional, look no further.
14. Ultimate Wellbeing Set*
I’d put this on the “nice to have but something you’d never buy yourself” list. So now is the time to be a good friend and pamper someone else. This bath oils set is super lush and would be amazing to have for all those winter baths.
15. The Big Reveal Kit – Drunk Elephant*
Thank goodness for holiday gift sets. They are the perfect way to test out several products from a brand. And more often than not, they work out to be a better value for money. This set includes a few well known and loved favorites. Perfect for the girl looking to dip their foot into clean beauty.
16. Rabbit Electric Corkscrew*
A few years ago at our first Friendsgiving, one of my friends busted this out & I was amazed. I mean who doesn’t love the satisfaction of getting the wine cork out the first time. Perfect for the wine lovin gal in your life or even the ones who just can’t open a bottle to save their lives.
17. Forea Luna Mini*
I’ve been a Forea Luna lover since I made the conversion 3 years ago. It’s not too harsh on your skin and doesn’t build up the bacteria like your traditional brushes. Plus, the battery holds charge for ages.
18. 5 Piece Stainless Steel Bar Set Tool*
Again, I’m here for the pretty, functional and shiny presents. And this bar set is calling my name. If you’re feeling extra generous, add in the ingredients for their fave drink or even a book of recipes.
19. Make + Model Knit Girlfriend Pajamas & Eye Mask*
Give me all the cozy pjs please! This set is super cute and sure to keep you warm this winter. Plus, it’s not too clingy or heavy. A definite Christmas present winner in my book.
20. Ugg Scuffette II Water Resistant Slipper*
I will forever be obsessed with my UGG slippers. When I worked in film, I would think about how I was going to get home and wear these to get through the final hours of work. They are just that nice. I tend to live in slippers at home and mine have gotten so much use. Honestly, you couldn’t pick a nicer present.
21. Fresh The Great Escape Mask Set*
How fun is this train set?! I love a bit of Fresh beauty and this mask set makes for an amazing gift. It’s the perfect excuse to treat yourself or your bestie. And it’s filled with tons of well loved masks.
22. Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit Unlocked*
Hourglass comes out with these palettes every year. But this is the first one I’ve stalked on the internet. It’s the perfect combo of blush, highlighter and bronzer. With so many rave reviews, it would make for an amazing present under the tree.
23. Quay Australia High Key*
Say hello to my most loved and worn pair of sunnies. I’m a major Quay Australia fan. And now with the minis, you can choose how oversized you want your aviators. I say the bigger the better so I’ll stick with my massive ones. But these make for an awesome gift.
24. Halogen Crewneck Cashmere Sweater*
The older I get, the more I’ve started to invest in my wardrobe. And a nice cashmere sweater is on my list. It’s something everyone can use and will love. Depending on when you’re shopping, this one might be on. sale. Nevertheless, it’s an amazing gift no matter who you’re shopping for.
